    Excellent Indian meal with attentive service and pleasant atmosphere. Certainly not cheap, even with a 20% off food offer which only just covered the service charge, but reasonable value overall considering the high quality. Dietary requirements were dealt with though the information that was sent in advance didn’t seem to have been used. A close 10 minute walk from Paddington and a good Fullers pub nearby.

    Staff were so welcoming and accommodating - really appreciated all the little things they did to help make our night out enjoyable. The food was lovely, service quick and would recommend as a great place to try a wide variety of dishes from Indian street food to British-Indian staples.

    This is a lovely restaurant that we have known for many years and we always enjoy coming to eat here and we always bring some food home too. We took our toddler along for her first trip into London and she enjoyed it. This restaurant has baby changing facilities and high chairs and a nice range of foods without chilli for little children but it is best to give them some notice to prepare in advance.

    Very nice restaurant. At first the atmosphere was very flat but as it slowly filled up this lot nicer. I found it a bit too expensive for my budget though.

    20% off? Beware the smallest portions in history. 4 tiny lamb chops for £30? Smaller than a starter at most places. Pushed and pushed to sell extras and move us through. Also had to ask to have the discount applied to bill multiple times. Felt completely cheated.

    Very average and the waiter messed up our bill charging us a lot more, after bringing a dirty glass. Quite disappointing, especially considering prices.

    We had an excellent dinner at the Bombay Palace. From the starters to the mains, all dishes we perfectly cooked and presented. The spices were well combined, allowing us to savour the various ingredients. Service was attentive, timely and courteous, and the facilities are clean and well decorated.

    The staff were very kind and the food was tasty and we would be happy to eat it again. Our tablecloth etc was very clean and so was everything else we used during our meal. We were less keen on the ambiance of the restaurant as it didnt feel cozy and somehow lacked personality but I believe it would be ideal for families!

    Nicely decked out 'local' Indian - serving an excellent choice of food from different parts of India. Service was great, although they did forget to apply the discount until reminded! Would recommend.

    The restaurant looked quiet on the outside but it soon filled to 85% during our time there. That’s always a good sign! The lamb curries were excellent, not too oily with the correct amount of seasoning. The smoked aubergine dish was also lovely. The Fork deal gave us 50% off food so prices were reasonable. For sure we’ll return when there’s another offer as the food was really yummy:)

    The recommended dishes taste good. We all like chicken curry and specially seasoned beef. I especially like rice mixed with sauce. The service is also very good. The location is also good. It's perfect to take a walk in Hyde Park after dinner.

    7.5/10

    Dined here on a Saturday at start of February at 930pm. Place was like a graveyard with only a few other tables. All of which left soon after leaving us only ones there on a Saturday night. Felt bit rushed by the staff to eat up and go so they could close up and go. But to be fair they did wait until just before 11 to actually say we had to leave. Pity as the food was above average and very good. Asked waiter if always so quiet on a Saturday night and he said it was in January/February. Might give them another chance later on in year as food was good. But only if another 50% off food offer. Otherwise without that food was quite pricey.

    Exquisite, authentic Indian food in an elegant and sophisticated setting, a stone throw from Hyde Park, with perfect service. The signature main dish was excellent, as was the Rasmalai desert (our favourite) that is hard to find (in Indian restaurants) these days.

    Bombay palace continues to deliver on quality and taste promise. The closest typical North Indian flavour you can get in a good restaurant anywhere in India. Unlike the hip and trendy Indian restaurants on the London scene, Bombay Palace has stayed true to its Indian roots. Lots of chaat, tandoor, currrys to suit every discerning Indian palate. The prices are high for the ambience and the experience as it’s not glamourous. So the fork deal was perfect.

    The portions are ridiculously small (samosas for nearly 10£ and you get only two and quite small) and they forgot my main course. The food was overall tasty and spicy but not too much.

    Great veggie section. Really nice starters, mains could be a bit more spicy though. Very nice waiters, decor and location.
