I went there once for a celebration and didnt know what i wanted, wasn't feeling great too. He said leave with me, he made me a really nice curry (off menu). When I go in now I often ask for "my special". They are so welcoming and accommodating, I can count the number of restaurants that pulled out all the stops to make the experience great, on one hand. This is one of them. They don't rush you even on Christmas Eve (our last visit).
We have been using bombay kitchen for many years now and was formerly on brixton hill and was known as the bombay inn. The food was outstanding, serving some of the best dishes i had ever tried from over the world.
Sadly it has changed. Maybe the chef has left!
We normally purchase a chicken tikka roll. Not actually on the menu, but a speciality with huge pieces of chicken tikka, lettuce tomato and onion with a mint dip sauce that can not be compared with anywhere else. Sadly tonight i think another restaurant made it. Maybe the bombay inn delivered instead.
The naan bread was not up to its beautiful usual standard with small pieces of tikka and a very different mint dip.
Chicken tikka and lamb biriyani:
Again not the usual excellent standard, with half size pieces of meat and the rice not up to the usual standard.
The mint dip from the bombay kitchen had always been outstanding and a great accompaniment for the onion bahjis, again another disappointment. Half size bahjis and someone elses mint dip.
Very disappointed and sad to see a quality restaurant change for the worse. Although the food was edible the portions and the chef are sadly missed.
Sorry to say goodbye! Goodbye bombay.
