I wish there were pictures on the menu so that it'd be easier for starters to order food that's unique, like this Indian food. The place is neatly clean, nice and comfy, and the vibe is quite alright. The price is reasonable to me, the food is pretty nice, and the service is good.

I surprisingly liked the Indian food at this restaurant! Prices were reasonable, serving portions were generous and table service is a-okay... given that there is only staff taking orders and serving the food. Must get: Chicken Biryani! So good, with boneless chicken meat, serving is good for two. Also order the palak paneer! I think this version is better than the one at Mantra Kitchen! Need extra spice: ask for their green chili sauce, one drop is dynamite!

It’s been a while since I last had Indian food from New Bombay, but honestly, it’s still exactly how I’ve always liked it. I can never get tired of their dishes — especially the classic Chicken Tikka Masala and Chicken Tawa Kheema, which I can eat again and again. I can’t really say if their food is fully authentic or already adjusted to Filipino taste, but I’ve loved it for many years, and that hasn’t changed. Different branches may have slight variations in flavor, but never to the point that I’d stop enjoying it. Today, I brought friends who never tried Indian food before, and they loved it too! It’s definitely worth braving the traffic for. They appreciated everything — from the cozy interiors to the flavorful dishes. The only small letdown was the lassi we requested to be less sweet, which still came out quite sweet — though that’s probably just a matter of personal preference. I forgot the name of the lady who served us, but she was exceptionally attentive and accommodating — a true standout in their service. (I’m just not sure how they manage during peak hours, as there seemed to be only one server attending to the entire store when we visited past lunch time.)

The serving was generous, and we thought we ordered a little for 4, but it was more than enough. The dishes we ordered are all good. There weren't many diners when we went, but there was only one waiter, so it was a little slow.

Decent Indian food in manila. We tried their biryani,curries and dessert. The spice level is medium. The price also is average if you’ll compare to other speciality restaurant in the city. It’s in podium mall so very convenient to go to. They need more staff especially on peak hours.

I've had better indian food but the price point here is better and the servings are generous, plus the location is convenient for me, I could very easily make this my go to for Indian food. Got the mutton curry and shrimp biryani, it's not the best Indian food I've had but it's also pretty good considering I didn't pay through the nose like more authentic Indian places so no complaints from me because better value for money.
