What People Are Saying About Bombay Cricket Club & Rstrnt

In Short
Upscale boomers, east-side bohemians and starry eyed lovers fill the cheerful peach dining room, cozy upstairs loft and tiny bar. More for the sake of culture than sport, quiet cricket matches are broadcast on multiple televisions. The menu is large and varied, with a strong vegetarian offering and a smattering of Middle Eastern dishes. Entrees include tender lamb shahi, accented with sweet raisins and crunchy almonds and saag paneer with peppery ginger, fresh spinach and firm cheese cubes.

We really enjoy this place. The food is consistently good. Even though I don't like overly sweet drinks the Mangorita goes quite nicely with the spicy Indian dishes. We sat out on the side walk one summer evening and it was delightful. We could watch all of the people walking by and enjoy awesome food, drinks, and professional wait staff. Fun experience! They do use Habenero for their level 5 spicy dishes and you can taste that flavor. Otherwise... definitely love this place!

My husband tried to do a good thing by surprising me for my 30th birthday. Considering we had a party of 7 you'd think they'd let us sit at a table set for 8...no, instead it was a table set for 6. The owner was rude not only to us but to his servers. Considering the economy you'd think he'd want to make it a pleasant experience. The naan was good and that was about it. The food was bland and uninspired. For our large party we were told that only five things could be ordered at a time and that we should "double" on the order to feed our party so the kitchen would not be tied up. I will NEVER go there again and will share my horrid expereince on every network site possible. Whomever wrote the positive experiences must know the owner.
