" What a hidden gem! Stopped by after searching for a great Indian place and came across Bombay Bistro and I couldn't be happier! The curry was rich and aromatic, the naan was beautifully grilled, and the service was prompt. This place will be my go-to whenever I’m in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on the reviews but it fell flat for me. The chicken in my curry was bland, and I couldn't taste any spices at all. The naan was nothing special either - also slightly rubbery. I won't be returning during my trip to Austin. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very average experience. The décor was nice and staff friendly, but I found the food lacking in flavor. The tikka masala was quite bland for my taste and the lamb was chewy. Overall, not a terrible meal, but I would not recommend it either. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having traveled extensively in India, I can vouch for the authenticity of the dishes served at Bombay Bistro. From the freshly made samosas to the aromatic biryanis, everything was on point. Although the service was a bit slow during peak hours, it was understandable considering the packed restaurant. I sincerely appreciate the owner’s attention to detail and commitment to genuine Indian cuisine. Highly recommend for anyone craving a true taste of India! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a great experience here recently! The restaurant was clean, the staff was friendly, and the food was delightful. I particularly appreciated the delicious garlic naan. The chai tea was a pleasant addition. It's nice to find such an authentic place for Indian food in Austin! " (*Curated Review*)

" I don’t understand the hype around this place. We waited a long time for our order and when it finally arrived, it was less than warm. The chicken was undercooked, and the biryani did not have enough flavor. I don’t think I will be coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" We've gone here a few times now, and I'm always amazed at the quality of the food and how authentic it feels. The variety of the buffet is wonderful, always something new! The staff on several occasions has been courteous and helpful; can't wait for our next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
