Bombay Palace in Coventry

Great tasting food but needed warming up

Great Evening of food and drink, serviced by excellent staff.@Taj

Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa en el Palacio de Bombay. Organizamos la fiesta de cumpleaños de mi hijo en la calle 21 allí para 30 personas. El personal y el gerente Nitesh, eran absolutamente increíbles en proporcionar un gran ambiente, con buena comida y también una noche muy cómoda y bien organizada para todos. La comida era increíble desde los entrantes que se sirvieron en la zona del bar para nosotros, y a la red que se sirvió en la zona privada acordonada y luego también tuvimos un gran pastel de cumpleaños y también nuestra propia música. El personal era muy atento y atendió todas nuestras necesidades y también pudimos alojarnos allí un poco más tarde de lo previsto originalmente. Un servicio completo de cinco estrellas que recomendaría en el Palacio de Bombay.

Just been for a meal with my Son, food as always was delicious and plentiful, staff polite and helpful, would highly recommend, give it a try if you are in the area you will not be disappointed, looking forward to the next time.

Another New Year’s Eve at the Palace, and as always, we have been going there for many years. However, I was disappointed with the service and food this year. The main server seemed to be in a bad mood, which affected his demeanour throughout the evening. Although our order was taken, we had to repeat it multiple times, and it was still incorrect. While the overall quality of the food was good, the chicken tikka masala was unfortunately from a jar and far too sweet and unpleasant for my taste. I will be looking for a new venue next year.

Been coming here for 30 years as one of the best curry houses in Coventry but have to say after the latest price hike I will not be visiting again, it's a real shame but £30 for a takeaway is too much.

taste not upto mark, biryani more like veg fried rice, there is no biryani taste

Great good from Bombay Palace.

Great service as always on time and hot food lovely as always!

The food was very tasty and I would order again. It would be better if the price was not set at £25. Thank you.

Hands down the best curry house I’ve been too. Delicious curries, amazing starters and lovely cocktails. Staff are so friendly and efficiently is perfect. 10/10 every time I go.

Average food. Both curries were on the sweet side, naan doughy. Order almost cold on arrival and once we plated it up it was cold, had to microwave it, not ideal. Wouldn't order again.

Food was very tasty, will definitely order again

We had heard much about Bombay Palace before ordering from the restaurant. So, we gave it a try and all our expectations crashed on our first bite of the Traditional chicken biryani. Rice was not cooked properly, chicken pieces were extremely dry, bland👎🏻. The gravy that came along with the biryani was the only thing ok (taste wise), too oily though. Complete disappointment, money wasted. P.S We were not in a hurry, we were asked when ordered it will take around 45-50 mins.

Another wonderful meal tonight . Food was delicious and hot on arrival. Never had a bad experience yet

We ordered 4 different types of curry’s and every dish tasted different which was perfect. But unfortunately the chicken was rubbery and the nan bread was dry and crispy.

Excellent food and service. Will be visiting again.

Food's okay ! but feels something really missing about it being Indian liked lamb/ chicken bhuna ! There is no much choices for non alcoholic drinks .

food is good but not matching Indian standard.

Wasn’t impressed with our meal this evening. Veg curry was very watery, chips not great. For the price, it could/should have been a lot better!

Best take a way curry I’ve had in years.

Don’t go by the stars and the fancy tags, the food is sweet, tasteless and full of color (red primarily!). I ordered £60 worth of food and honestly, it was the most wasted spend.

Although the food was late, it was worth waiting the extra time for! Absolutely delish and will definitely order again! Thank you! X

Fuimos a este restaurante para celebrar el cumpleaños de nuestro amigo. . Todos nosotros disfrutamos de nuestras comidas. Todos estuvimos de acuerdo en que era la mejor comida india que habíamos comido en siglos. La carne estaba tierna. Las salsas estaban deliciosas. Los naans eran perfectos y el arroz estaba cocinado a la perfección. El personal era amable y atento. En general fue una experiencia muy positiva y disfrutada por todos. Muy recomendable.

Had our first visit to Bombay Palace, as a family of 4 with two children and all vegans. I can honestly say that this was the first Indian restaurant in the Midlands that I’ve really enjoyed. Not oily and not extremly spicy, but very flavoursome. Super clean venue and polite staff too. So nice that it’s worth the drive again from Brum!

I recently dined at Bombay Palace and was thoroughly impressed by the experience. The ambiance was sleek and modern, creating a comfortable and stylish dining environment. The menu was diverse and offered a range of flavorful dishes. I particularly enjoyed the special tawa, which was fragrant and deliciously balanced with sweet and savory notes. The naan bread was soft and buttery, perfect for complementing the meal. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable, making the entire dining experience truly exceptional. I highly recommend Bombay Palace for anyone seeking authentic and high-quality Indian cuisine in a contemporary setting.

Food was very hot and extremely tasty couldn’t fault it

Outstanding- large order for delivery - all food hot and fresh and delivered in very good time - definitely use again thanks

I got a take out from this place, and the service was quick and nice. I ordered saag paneer, paneer butter masala, and peshawari naan. My expectations, tbh after my experience with other Indian restaurants in the area, were not too low. However, the food was below average. The peshawari naan, which traditionally comes stuffed with dry fruits, was too yeasty and instead of the rich naan I was expecting, it had coconut and sugar. I next tried the saag paneer which was average. I had also ordered the paneer butter masala, and that was distinctly meh. It had too much onion paste that was still not cooked off. Overall, a disappointment and I won't be back :(

Overpriced and Worst food till date in UK. Mark my words being a indian I bought chicken passanda. It was supposed to be mild spicy asked them to make it medium spicy. They made it sweet with non edible chicken tikka pieces which were hard and chewy. Don't go on the name. Better restaurant like The Royal Bengal available in the same arean.

Food was fine. Keema naan was just okay, and the chips were soggy, but the lamb madras and sundries were good.

excellent food, and we didn't mind the early delivery

Nice food but not cheap! Just main courses worked out at £25 per head, and it was noisy, but it was busy at 8:30 on a Saturday night!

Nice meal on a Saturday night...7.30. Very busy but staff were friendly and food tasty. Drinks are a little expensive. Poppadoms, 2 mains, 2 plain rice, 2 garlic naans, and 1 dessert, 2 beers, 2 small wines, just under £80.

Booked a table and went with a group. Food was excellent, including my vegetarian dish and staff were very friendly, polite and efficient. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic service, amazing food. Everything about this restaurant is brilliant.

Four of us went to celebrate a friend’s birthday. One of the ladies recommended the Seafood Lazeez so all four of us had this sumptuous seafood dish - packed full of quality fish & shellfish in a delicious aromatic sauce - we all loved it. Great service too.

Madras was brilliant but lamb chops in my starter were black!! I wish we could leave photos on here because they were cremated. Can’t believe they put it in the tray

Tasty food. Great atmosphere and helpful and attentive staff. Food arrived quickly too.

I had an amazing time at this restaurant last evening. I came all the way to this restaurant from Leamington spa. I ordered some starters - chicken tikka, chicken seek kebab, paneer tikka and popodams and chutneys. Everything looked and tasted amazing, the portions were bit small but had ample of flavour in them. For mains I ordered - traditional chicken curry, chickpea curry, bhindi masala, matar paneer, tawa roti and tandoori roti. And the mains were absolutely delicious. I loved all the mains- I strongly recommend the traditional chocken and bhindi masala to everybody. The staff was also amazing they gave away complementary drinks- bailey and brandy.

Fabulous, traditional curry house with friendly service. The menu contains all the usual favourites including chicken Korma and paneer with a full range of naan breads. Cobra on tap.

Very nice food. Delivered on time.

Food was amazingly nice. Delivery was a little slow and turned up while the app still said being prepared

Prices are about 40% more than not that long ago, the takeaway no longer really at a price point where we are prepared to pay. The increase outstrips inflation by a good distance, so it is not at all acceptable. The restaurant seems a lot quieter too, most of the time, so others are staying away. It is all about pricing, as the food is good.

As always delicious food and on time. Thank you 😁

Great food. We really enjoyed our meal .

A nice little Indian restaurant on the main street in Earlsdon. A good selection of dishes and Cobra on tap. Well worth a visit.

First time I’ve been but I will definitely go again. Lovely atmosphere, great food and friendly service, thank you

First order from here and food was great. Thank you.

As usual a lovely meal from Bombay Palace

Had a 5 person order with different meals all food was quality and still hot on arrival

Possible the most "British" curry in Earlsdon. Ordered 4 side dish sized currys that tasted almost identical and very sweet. Pilau tasted like boiled rice with food colouring. No garlic flavour in garlic naan. Appreciate the free shot post meal but wondered if its sexist to presume a man would like whiskey and a woman wants whiskey-cream? Thank god the service was good--the only redeeming quality!

Fantastic quality as usual it's Saturday night so no issues with the delivery being a bit late

Delicious food. I will definitely order from Bombay Palace again

I have visited this place with my friend and ordered shahi tawa for 2 (£44.5). Nothing apart from service was good. As you can see from the images, tawa definitely looked huge but for the price it’s shamble. One curry is too sweet, one curry is full of bones and potatoes with a small lamb piece. As the tawa is hot, it made the naan and fries dry and hard. Overall, wouldn’t recommend this place. With two really amazing Turkish restaurants around and farmhouses 3 minutes drive, give it a miss if you can.

Great service, good quality well cooked food really enjoyed our meal

Good food. Late delivery was no problem.

We have eaten in and had takeaways. This is my favourite in the area. Definitely recommend. Consistent quality of food. We normally have balti, garlic murgh, sides, rice and paratha.

Great food and really good service will return and would highly reccomend

Great food once again. Really quick delivery on a Friday night.

Excellent service and quality as usual

Food was lovely and fresh and hot will definitely be back

Beautiful food, really lovely, would recommend

The order was over £70. When i called the restaurant to see where it was, because it was late, the man was very abrupt. He didnt even take my order number and just said its on its way, its on its way. When it arrived the drink was missing. The driver apologised and said they dont do drinks so he wasnt sure why just eat offered them. Thats great but doesnt help me when i wanted a drink. The chips had gone soggy. Yes i know chips are not necessarily indian. But my child wanted them and they were soggy and cold. The curries were tasty and the rice as expected but all in all very overpriced for what it was. Had just ad good for much less cost and better service

Great food, great service, great restuarant!

Regularly order from here. Always good!

I've ordered their curry-style thali, which comes with Pilau Rice & Nan and Chicken Tikka Masala, Lamb Pasanda, Lamb Bhuna, and Northern Bengal Garlic Chilli Chicken. The rice, naan bread, and tikka masala were all excellent. Whereas the sweetness of the other curries was extreme. Looking forward to try their tandoori dishes.

Amazing place Probably Coventry’s best Can’t fault it

I should have known - when there was only 1 brown person in the restaurant drinking with some businessmen. In short the worst, most expensive Indian meal I've had in years Tiny portions. Mushroom rice, no flavour, badly cooked rice, couldn't see or taste any mushroom. But I was really happy I didn't order the pulao rice which had more colouring than rice, no spices & caused an allergic reaction in one of my companions. I got a mixed dish lamb and chicken - the chicken was supposed to be with spinach. No spinach the sauce was bright red and tasted of food colouring. The chicken was dry and tasteless (I think they may have used breast - inauthentic) the lamb was also dry, overcooked and swamped with a sauce that bore no recognition to anything Indian. I asked for my food to be spicy - madras and Vindaloo hot for main and side dish respectively. The woman eating korma said my food was milder than hers. Keema naan too greasy, fell apart and the 'meat' that fell out looked weird. There were 10 of us and there was not one mouthful of anything anyone ordered that made going there a good idea. The poppadoms with pickles were the best thing on the table. Which says everything you need to know!

Fantastic service and food. Lovely atmosphere. I would highly recommend. Paneer tikka masala as delightful and the We will be back!

Very average tikka masala was bright bright red - stained my teeth and hands Ridiculously sweet thick and no flavour apart from sugar taste

Had a dinner at this restaurant. Food delivered was different from what is written on menu card. Will not advise cocktails from this place at all. Didn’t meet any Indian food expectations.

Burnt food, not good. Used to be one of the best. Shame.

Delivery of the food was prompt, after receiving a text message shortly before takeaway arrived. The order was made for my son and husband, my son is not home as yet, but my husband has just enjoyed his delicious Lamb Pathia and onion rice. Well done Bombay Palace and many thanks for such a great service. Thankyou.

Not an authentic taste. The place is very small and feels very crowded due to the setup of the seating. The paneer tikka starter costs £10 but there were only 5 pieces. Absolute rip off. But it was fresh. The mushroom curry was mostly like tomato curry. The chapati and naan were ok. I wouldn't recommend it for an Indian if you're after authentic taste.

Incredible. The best Indian takeaway we've ever had!

Came here with 5 work colleagues. The food was excellent but a little pricey. Waiting staff were very attentive and helpful ( it doesn't hurt to smile a little, though!). Quite a narrow establishment, with a single walkway from the door to the back of the restaurant but once sat down, it's like anywhere else. Nice big naan breads and the normal 4 toppings for your poppadoms. All 6 of us were very happy with our food. There is a car park at the back of the restaurant, which is free after 6 but pay and display or paybyphone app

We been last night at Bombay palace with family it’s really beautiful place nice food and staff clean nd attractive, we enjoyed

Had takeaway tonight from Bombay Palace- chicken balti saag and lamb passanda - both excellent and very enjoyable

I ordered a chicken tikka masala and it was horrendous, red colour dye? Why? Half a hundred weight of desicated coconut in it, no taste and 4 bits of dried up last night's chicken chucked in the sauce, plus pilau rice with yes you guessed it RED dye added. I usually have M&S chicken tikka masala the luxury gastro one for half of this price and NO comparison, save your money!

Lamb chops were just warm and were all bone naan bread was poor curry not that good

Wonderful food with excellent service

Worst food I have ever had in my life. Never recommend this Asian restaurant. Waste of money, food was very bad and worst in taste.

Enjoyed the food, but for a small Curry House, simple things where expensive.

Food was outstanding. We have never had such a good meal . Will definitely be our new favourite 👍🏼

Have a lovely night and the food and service was as good as ever - they are always so attentive and any special food requests are no trouble at all. Thanks Bombay Palace been there on occasions for the last 20+ years

The food was good.. the guy was early.. fair play.. but did have to check I had the right order.. as my app said he was still on his way. Not complaining.. I am a carpenter.. been out in the cold so glad of some warm food and a beer.. THURSDAY: BCB.. Beer Curry Bed.. that’s it in my house. Love a good curry and a beer.. so early was a nice bonus for a hungry tradie. So deffo order again, good service. Happy Tradie. 😊👍🏻

Giving 1 star as I couldn’t find anything lesser. Been here recently and wanted to eat something I was craving for “Paratha”, but the management wanted me to order a main course. This place is just here to make money without satisfying the craving of a customer. Worst place I’ve been to never gonna come here or suggest this to anyone!! Rating: -5 stars (NEGATIVE FIVE)

Great service and food as always. Definitely my go to place for eating out or takeaway curry nights.

Service with a smile would of been nice they seem to rush you before you have finished food for next course but food was lovely

Yet again appaling service stone cold food. Forgot to deliver the pomadoms but didn't forget to charge for them. Called and they said they were too busy to deliver them. Have given this dreadful place chances in the past but never again. I will also be advising everyone I know to avoid like the plague.

Great tasting food, always consistently good

The food tasted great and fresh with no additives, great quality

We had a delivery from this 'apparent' award winning restaurant, and we were expecting something at least edible, and for over £30, this was a joke. First off, all the dishes were cold, the poppadoms were bendy and not crisp as they should be, like they had been sitting out on the table for five hours, the rice wasn't thoroughly cooked, hard and tasted microwaved, the curry itself was laden with an abundance of sugar, which made me feel rather nauseated, and the naan wasn't cooked fresh, and was extremely small. I expect my food to be made fresh, not to be sat on a back burner, just waiting for a person to order it. This is quite possibly the worst curry I've ever had.

Cold curry was too sweet, not cooked correctly, cold rice, popadoms too soft, cold nann bread, won't be using again.

sadly the creamy curries all were very sweet indeed. Meat was terrific, and rest of order very good but needed more kick.

I ordered food at half 6 Friday the 2nd December, rang the restaurant at half 7 when the promised time was 30 mins to 45 minds after I ordered I may add. When I rang the guy on the phone said he’s on the way, 2nd time I rang he said he would check and hung up the phone, then rang again and they said it would be 5 to 7 mins to be delivered, 20 mins later at 8:15 the food came and was cold very unimpressed, normally very good I’m very disappointed to the point where I won’t be ordering soon…

Very good food, service and atmosphere. Good value for money!

Great food and quick service - we'll definitely be back!

Good tasty food, nice to have a good vegetarian option, will defo use again.
