“ Great restaurant they were always wonderful and made sure my kids found something that they enjoyed too, and it opens up my children to new foods that they might not have tried my daughter love the mango lassi ”
“ I've been dying to try this place and the chicken Tika was incredible.... Everyone also loved the tandoori chicken, naan, let's just say everything we ordered. The restaurant is nicely decorated and intimate. When we arrived the nice waiter helped us order and not over order. I would have given a five but when it comes to service if you're enjoying and paying for your meal a restaurant should know service etiquette. The lady was reaching over us taking plates while we were still eating, when you dine they should ask is everyone done or wait to see everyone stopped eating ask them if they want to go or if they're finished not in this case the food was literally on my son's fork and the waitress took his plate that I grabbed and said he's eating! ”
“ What an excellent experience ! The food was excellent and the owner spent time at our table explaining the different foods and accommodating my spouse's gluten allergy. We were both very pleased and will be back ”
“ Vinay! What an incredible evening with great food! The service was absolutely incredible! So yummy!! ”
“ Last night we had the pleasure of dining at Bombay River, and I was thoroughly impressed. The food was absolutely delicious. They have lots of vegetarian dishes to choose from. The service was quality, our server was sweet and attentive. The atmosphere was upscale but still chill. Here's a good example of what to get: Butter paneer: A tomato based creamy curry ish dish - it's a little different everywhere you go- theirs was Delish. Naan& Roti: bread was fresh and perfectly cooked a little crispy and still soft. Mango Lassi: a yummy creamy yogurt like drink. Gobi Manchurian: fried cauliflower with yummy spices! Never misses at any spot honestly. They had both outdoor & indoor seating. Good portions, and higher prices but expected for quality and location ”
“ Nothing but the best! Delicious food, excellent service. Lots of flavors. Stop in give them a try and see for yourself. That good. ”
“ Must try if you are going to the jersey shore!! This is our second time here and we can't be happier. We made a last minute reservation and they seated us 10 min before closing. The place feels authentic and service is extremely nice! The food was delicious and was served within 10 min. We got the samosa chaat for an appetizer and it was great probably top 5 on my list. You can never go wrong with paneer tikka masala - so so flavorful! My boyfriend loved the chicken tikka masala and wanted more. Btw the garlic naan was so crispy and tasty. Make sure to check the when the restaurant closes because Rezy isn't accurate on Sundays. ”
“ The food was amazing ! Have been 2x and am craving the butter chicken as I speak ... service was very good ! Can't wait to go back !!! ”
“ Truly excellent Indian food. We had the vegetable korma and the paneer butter masala. They were both great. The garlic naan was perfect. The omg naan was expensive ($8!) and way too spicy though. Speaking of cost, this place is pricy. I do wish they had vegetable pakora as an appetizer, but the samosa, papadams and chutneys were all great. The mint in particular had a nice spicy kick. On the less positive side, this was the most expensive Indian restaurant I've been to (each entree was over $20), on the high side even for the area, and I've technically had better. It was also a hot day and the AC was on near the bathrooms in the back but it was simply not reaching the dining area. It felt cooler outside by the time we left. The servers were all friendly and the decor was really nice. All-in-all truly excellent Indian food, particularly if you're price insensitive. ”
“ Amazing experience here. Don't miss out on this gem with so many flashier options in the heart of buzzing downtown RB. Service was on point, accommodating, and polite. Calm ambience and BYOB. Nice menu selection and everything was of quality with ample flavor. Definitely recommend trying a bunch of plates and sharing. Garlic naan bread is a must! The eggplant chat app is underrated. A delicate, sweet crisp to the warm eggplant that was abundant and mixed in with cold chickpeas and sauces. Everything blended deliciously making for a unique dish. Chicken was extremely tender and shrimp fresh and sizzling. Table sauces a nice compliment. P.S. there is a redeemable Yelp discount! Alternatively, mgmt deducts from the bill if you pay in cash. ”
