Taste Of Bombay in Basildon

Part of our order arrived on time, but an hour on and we are still waiting for food to complete the order… not impressed, I rang after half hour to ask how far away, they said the driver left ten minutes ago, 25 minutes on and it’s still not here 🙄

Quick enough to take your money, but don't deliver the goods or answer the phone. Never again

excellent food delivered piping hot very impressed

tikka masala was watery bombay aloo was bland naan bread was doughy and sticky and onion bahji was tasteless. it just tasted like burnt oil.

Great food, price and delivery time, highly recommended

The food was hot and fresh and had so much flavour the creamy Naga sauce is definitely recommended if you like spice

Piping hot food delicious thank you

Amazing as always, so much variety and the different spice levels are amazing for choice. Thank you

Food arrived on time and was ok. Have ordered Chicken Tikka Saag, with a “touch of Spice” many times. However, this time, it was like the hottest Naga curry. Far too hot and spoiled an otherwise excellent meal. Restaurant please read the order! Have always rated this take away highly, but now it is very hit and miss. Had I been eating in the restaurant, it would have been sent back. Disappointed.

Was recommended by a friend, absolutely delicious food and will definitely use again

Lovely and hot on arrival, great meal

one of the worst indians I've ever had!! 3 curries all tasted the same, amount of oil was unreal and just a layer of oil in each curry! I never leave reviews on anything but this was actually horrendous. I always order extra so can have some the next day, but all gone in the bin!

I accidentally clicked on collection. phoned shop straight away and it was delivered within minutes. paid delivery at the door.

absolutely banging I love the good d

Excellent food, speedy delivery.

Always lovely food and prompt don’t go anywhere else for a treat night thank you

great temperature. great service. great courier as asked called 5 mins b4 arrival. thanks

The rice was cold. and the main dish tasted like oil was old. disappointed

I just can't complain very very nice thanks guys just what the doctor ordered

I've ordered so many times now and never been let down always full of plavour anamd tast and hot really nice deliverie drivers honestly keep doing what your doing master chefs your food is amazing

Food was spot on very nice yummy

slightly late but a horrible wet night with lots of traffic. Food was back to its top quality and was delicious. 5* Highly recommended

absolutely amazing always hot and full of flavour best Indian take away 😋

extra chilies and butter paid for on the naan wasn’t received. Disappointed from a normally good take away.

There was a mix up with the vegetable Ceylon I received a chicken Ceylon instead. I called up the restaurant and they apologised sent out a vegetable Ceylon and a rice as well. Really tasty food, quick delivery too.

Nice tasty food, i like the option to alter the spice to make things a bit more spicy

Flavour was lovely however our food was stone cold which is unfortunate

I have consistently rated this restaurant 5*, tonight was a disappointment. Chicken Tikka Saag was tasteless, hardly any spinach and zero spice. supposed to have a touch of spice which normally you can taste. Tonight it tasted like bland tomato purée. It must be a different chef as it’s nowhere near the normal quality. I’m hoping this is a one off otherwise i’ll need need to look elsewhere

normally order regular as only few minutes away, but unfortunately on this occasion my order arrived rather cold, chips I orded were inedible as they were so cold, such a shame, I literally live no more than 5 min away so no reason for it to have been cold.

Sag Ponir was uneatable.Way to sweet and slopy. Order was late buy30 minutes.If that's the best they can do then they should be paying us. Have had this dish with every order form good Indian take-ways with no problems. Will never deal with these people again.

Fantastic meal, still the best Indian food in Essex, by miles

Food missing from order and 45 minutes late.

excellent food . highly recommended 👌

Ordered never received as restaurant wasn’t open and just eat took money never reimbursed

Food was on point. Quality food and value for money. Definitely will be my regular spot.

The food taste was fantastic just loved it.

Great service and great food. Thank you

Delicious food and arrived on time. The best in Essex highly recommended

Used a £5 voucher and delivery driver said it didn’t show when I showed the email she refused and charged me the price she said. I also ordered the go large for +£2.50 and received small!

Food was delivered over 2 hours late and when I called to say it was late they advised the delivery driver had only been sent out AFTER my delivery slot time. By the time it got to us the food was cold.

The food was late and was very cold when it arrived

Food as usual, was delicious. Still the best in the area. Unfortunately it was 45 minutes late this time.

Delicious food. A bit of a late delivery.

This was the best korma and rice I have eaten in years, will definitely be ordering again yum yum

Missed stuff off but thankfully redelivered the missing

Food tasted nice and we were happy but just we ordered the sag peener but it was more sag than the cheese. We would have liked more balance in the dish.

Food taste lovely and fresh only down was an item missing

Everything arrived hot and was very tasty Have ordered from here a few times, and the food has always been very good.

Wasn’t what I expected curry was completely different to everywhere else

Everything was perfect. Lovely food as always. Thank you

Exallant food, it was hot and very tasty as usul. Well done

Quick delivery and food was piping hot :)

Great food, nice quick delivery every time ordered, always tastes amazing! 100% recommend

The food was not a good as I thought it would be. Won’t be using taste of Bombay again.

Excellent food and quick delivery

Food was excellent as usual. Best in the area highly recommended

Food was not great, tikka was overly salty. Lamb rogan josh had a very strange flavour. Will give this a miss net time. Delivery was earlier than expected. Delivery driver was friendly and courteous.

I’ve been using this Indian takeaway for a few years now, and always found their dishes to be excellent, the spicing of their dishes is spot on, the depth of flavour you get is excellent, the only peculiarity is they always give you a small pot of mint sauce to go with your curry, but no Papadom, for me it’s pointless having mint sauce if you haven’t got a Papadom to dip into it

Ordered a biryani on Uber eats. Nothing tasteful about it. Should’ve ordered after going through the reviews. Not a good experience.

Thank you bombay, from freshness to flavors absolute 💯 amazing 👏 who ever cooked it they need a pay rise 😀

Lovely tender food and hot when it arrived .. for me the Rogan sauce could of done with a bit more flavour apart from that I could t fault it.

I'm no stranger to curry as I grew up eating my Aunties home cooked food. I can honestly say the flavours captured by this place are very good. However I've had to mark it down for a reason. We ordered a prawn and lamb dish this time, but there was hardly any fish or meat in the dish. It was all mainly sauce and teeny tiny prawns. I know due to circumstances everyone is cutting down here and there but here it was really noticed. Customer is king.. if they're pleased they'll always come back.

Just moved Into the neighbourhood and ordered our first Indian meal. Excellent, clean, not greasy. Very tasty, no over done with spices.. Very pleased. Good job.

Chef went extra tonight, so good

Food was amazing - arrived hot - lots of flavour brilliant portion size too

The food was delicious and it was piping hot. Regular customer over many years. Great quality, as always.

Poppadoms were stale and tasted out of date. No favour and got cold soon as you take it out the bag.

Food was really good but ordered a Chicken and lamb tandoori shashlik there was only 3 pieces of lamb and two chicken with loads of onions and tomatoes, bit disappointing really

Food was great like always but unfortunately I got a lamb tikka starter instead of what I paid for which was the main. This isn’t the first time this has happened. Kinda getting annoyed with ordering from this place online now so will just go to the shop from now on. Which literally isn’t the point of this service.

Fantastic meal, As usual. Highly recommended

The food was stone cold and naan bread was tough. The salad was inedible due to wilting and the lemon had started to defrost.. very disappointing..

Exceptional takeaway one of the best in the area. 5*

First time order. Very impressed. Good portions, very tasty, well dished up so no complaints here just complements.

Excellent food, best in the area

Driver read delivery instructions. Great food. Accurate timing of delivery

What a lovely meal... tasty, hot and plenty of it! Will be ordering again!! Thank you!

Food absolutely amazing was hot tasty will definitely order again ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We’re thinking this takeaway is either under new management or they have a new chef. Ordered a lamb chilli garlic, chicken tikka, saag aloo, mushroom rice, spicy and plain papadums, a chapati and the only thing that was edible was the rice. The rest of it was awful, some of the pieces of lamb were cooked and some were hard, the chicken was dry and tasteless no tandoori flavours at all. The papadums tasted stale and the saag aloo was vile I wasn’t sure what it was when I took the lid off the potatoes were all stuck together and were dark browny red in colour. Paid by card and didn’t get a receipt which by law they have to provide a xard receipt. This take away was our go to but sadly we will not be ordering again.

Tasty food. We ordered and it came on time. We enjoyed a lot. We had Chicken Biryani, which is so delicious. Would like to try again definitely. Would like to recommend to all people who love Indian foods.

Worst Indian I've ever had. Was cold, watery and just nasty.

Lovely food delivered in a good time! Will order again

Delicious food large portions, heaps more than enough for two adults.!.none wasted, in fridge for next day. Second time we have ordered from Taste of Bombay.! We don't usually eat takeaway but treated ourselves today! Glad I found you again. Many Thanks to you all.

The chicken in the masala was slimy and didn’t taste right had a funky smell too. Rice was so over cooked it was all stuck together / stodgy. Never had a problem with ordering from here before but after this order I don’t think I’ll order again. Absolutely gutted.

Unfortunately we won’t be ordering from here again. We ordered a madras and masala and we just wasn’t a fan of the flavours. My keema naan didn’t have much meat it in. This might just be down to our own personal preference, but we didn’t rate it much.

AMAZING!!! the amount of food you get is incredible and all tasted great!

Very happy with early delivery!A nice surprise. The vegetable biryani was delicious. I wasn't expecting the vegetable curry with it , so that was another lovely surprise. The portion sizes are enough for 2 adults, with some left over!!!!!! Also delivered with a 😁.

Piping hot, very very tasty. Wonderful onion bargees and the naan was great

There is no doubt the food is good food but something shady going on here. It's not uncommon for restaurants to add items onto your bill when you eat out in India and that practice seems to have found a home here too. The young lad you served me was caught out when I asked for a receipt. What really gets me is being charged prices significantly higher than they are written on the menu. Like an extra £1 on most items. If you look on their website, just eat and their menu in store they are all different prices but what I got charged for actually going to the store was more than it would have been to get it delivered? I'm perplexed. Buyer beware.

Poor customer service. Never again.

Was very nice, but the sauce made the bread soggy

We ordered chicken curries, Bombay potatoes. Naans were lovely. But curry tasted weird and my children who love chicken curry refused to eat it. So naans and rice was what they had for dinner. This is the second time I’ve received disappointing food so won’t be ordering again.

First time ordering won’t be ordering again, never left a review before but the chicken was VERY pink and the food was all stone cold, disgusting food never again.

Always the most delicious hot food. Wouldn't go anywhere else!

Best Indian Takeaway i have had in ages

Most food was cold and barely warm. Defeats the point of getting a takeaway if you have to put it in the oven to heat up. Not much meat in dishes either.

The food is absolutely awful the lamb is chewy the pilau rice taste like it has perfume on it what a waste of £30

Great taste, lots of flavour, tender meat, good portion sizes

No mango chutney that was ordered. I ordered it specifically for my lady Wife.

The best Indian food always hot and prices are the best. Large portion sizes and lots of flavour.

Orderd a Tandoori mixed grill... food tasy but Bearley warm.... Nann bread, freezing cold...
