Service was okay but food wise it was flavourles, The chicken and spinach curry tasted like I’d gone to the local park and chomped on a tree and the rogan Josh tasted like tomato purée, there is a lot better places to eat for the money, I really don’t mind paying for food but I must say I am very disappointed because I can’t cook for the life in me but honestly I could of done a better job

Lovely people. One dish was a little different to what was expected, hence only 4 stars. Atmosphere lovely downstairs, upstart less so, hence the 4 stars. Lager was expensive, but I often think this in a lot of places!

Terrible service. Half way through popadoms and pickle tray(5mins after placing order) waiter brought our mains to the table and was trying to rush us to get table set up.Sent them back so he kept us waiting an age in spite, in a freezing cold restaurant before returning.Food bland.

Great looking places with lots of attentive and friendly staff. Poppadoms and chutneys to start were well priced and the Poppadoms were thin and not grease at all. I order the CHICKEN KARAHI and hubby the CHICKEN GARLIC CHILLI plus sides of rice, Chana masala, Saag aloo and garlic nan. Nan was thin and delicious, would return just to try the other types! Chana and Saag were delicious, great portions for sides and well priced. Hubby really enjoyed his garlic chilli dish. My Karahi however was spicier than his dish and I couldn't eat it. Therefore Hubby ate both chicken dishes and I ate the side dishes. I should has asked for yogurt but it didn't detract from how tasty the other food was. The man at the next table ordered the same and he commented to his partner how spicy it was too. We did tell the waiter at the end and he said no chilli or hot spices in the dish so probably best to check spice level if you're not used to as much heat! We would return but I would probably order a tikka masala or korma next time to be on the safe side

Fabulous dining at Bombay Spice in York, visited with our friends from out of town. The food choices in York are great but you won't find a better Indian Restaurant than Bombay Spice. My curry of choice is Garlic Chili Chicken - wow they get this dish bang on. Excellent service combined with excellent food makes this our No 1 spot for Indian cuisine in York - and it's on the way home as well!!

Deserves its Place at the Top of the Leader Board! We were looking for an Indian restaurant close by and the Bombay Spice jumped out on TA. Arriving at 1700, they have an early discounted menu until 1830 which we took advantage of. The food, starters and mains were excellent and we both particularly enjoyed the lemon rice. Service was quick, polite, efficient and friendly. Thoroughly recommended.

We visited with our 2-year-old for a family birthday meal. The food was pleasant, but we encountered an issue with the red wine we ordered—it was fizzy and tasted bad. Initially, we considered overlooking it, but after some quick online research, we realised the wine was spoiled, it happens when there's something wrong that makes the wine continue to ferment. We requested a replacement. Surprisingly, the second bottle was also fizzy. We felt uncomfortable voicing further complaints, as it seemed the staff doubted our claims. We reluctantly continued with the fizzy wine. To add to our disappointment, we were charged on the bill by approximately £3 for the first spoiled glass. I found this disgusting service, as it's likely they would have just served the remaining wine by the glass to other customers, and simply charged us for the disgusting fizzy glass. Despite these issues, we left a 5% tip, primarily because dining out with a toddler is challenging and we already felt like we'd been a huge hassle. However, we felt undervalued as patrons and won't be returning.

Place was lovely, was our first time there. Unfortunately, we asked for fish pakora and poppadoms to start with, finished the poppadoms and suddenly our mains came, no pakora. We weren't charged for it, but chose the place mainly for the fish pakora. The butter paneer was delicious and full of flavour, pathia lacked flavour and sweetness, had a decent kick but no flavour and was watery. Naan bread small, expensive drinks.

Ordered takeaway as this restaurant used to be a favourite, but never again!!! The food resembled more of an Italian pasta sauce than it did a curry and that's being nice.. the butter chicken tasted like a famous brand tomato soup and the madras, had two flavours tomato passata and spice, no depth to it at all. If you want an ambundance of meat with your curry dont go here.... there was 5 small chunks of chicken (which isnt even one chicken breast)!!! The naans were undercooked and doughy. Very disappointing to say the least, considering the full meal Is very expensive, with each curry itself costing close to 11quid each! avoid at all costs!

We were looking for a dog-friendly restaurant in York and this came up in a search probably because it's got "Dog" in its name. However it is genuinely dog-friendly too which was really nice. Really top notch Thai food in an informal, slightly 'cafe-like' restaurant. The staff were very friendly, and even bought a bowl of water over for our dog. In fact they even offered some prawn crackers for the dog (which we declined - can't imagine what they'd do to the dog's digestive tract!). Note restaurant accepts cash only, (at Feb 2024).
