Easy to find. The waiter was clearly in training, his french was poor and he struggled in English I don't speak Hindi so I knew I was heading for some difficulties. I ordered a starter and a main. It all came at the same time. The starter, onion bhaji (written bhaja on the menu but I knew what they meant) was simply onion rings dipped in a check pea batter. Sorry, but that isn't how onion bhajis look or taste in india. For 7€ it was a complete rip off. The main course, a lamb curry, was good, well spiced. The Indian beers were fresh, The Kulfi desert wasn't the Kulfi I know and love. This was way too sickly sweet, like eating semi frozen sweetened condensed milk straight out of a can. It had...

Tucked away in a back street, this unpreposessing establishment serves a limited but very obviously freshly cooked variety of dishes. It is very different from the UK type of curry, in a good way. None of the gloopy sauces with pre-cooked meat added at the end. Every dish is freshly made. 50 euros for 3 main dishes, rice and a nan, plus a bottle of house wine (unfortunately a chilled red). The service was a little indifferent, the waitress catching up on her mobile whilst serving. As is too often the case, the takeaway business impinges on the customers dining in. However, if you know your curry, the food is good. It's also one of few restaurants in Montpellier open on Sunday evening.
Quite simply, the food was good, not very authentic and very little heat, but all tasted good and was well cooked. The service was however poor, with only one person serving, drinks were very slow and the main course came up when ready, which meant some of our guests food went cold waiting. Nice enough, not bad value, but won't rush back.
Sadly, Montpellier didn't cut it for us food wise especially where catering for vegetarians was concerned. That's why Bombay was a life saver.We loved its location near Corum. There was actually a choice of veggie meals. Very fresh ingredients and extremely tasty. We went twice! Book a table now
I'm not sure what the standards of Indian food are in France, but compared to most countries I've been to, this is nothing to write home about. Give it a go if you're not picky, but avoid it if you are a bit of a snob like me.
This very beautiful, personal, very welcoming little restaurant, the Indian girl is really very nice to the guests, the boss is nickel A great BRAVO and BONNE CONTINUATION. MERCI CHEF
We had a very good meal here. They were flexible with the chillis making a cooler version of a chicken dish. Not a large menu but some good food. We would eat here again.
The food was delicious, if you like Chili you would be dissapointed. Service ok and the restaurant is clean. Menu should be more clear and more suggestions! Book a table now
Clean, quaint little restaurant off the beaten path. Not too expensive. Enjoyed our visit and our meal.
Super Indian restaurant! Flats with a lot of taste. What about super Naan??? I highly recommend.
