Re: “Shalimar”
Awesome place to have a great dining experience! Food was great and service was great too. Prices are a bit high but the quality of the food was top notch and it tasted YUMMY!
Re: “Swagruha”
Great flavors, but the goat was very tough! The young girl said it was their most popular dish, and the spice was just right; I will try it again - maybe I just got a bad goat. Along with the Channa Masala (Chick Peas in a scrumptious curry cream sauce) it was almost more food than I could eat! The samosas are savory and (again) BIG, served with a hot/sweet sauce that really balances well with their cardamom. Included for the $6.50 price were two curries and a mountain of saffron rice, naan, and a super-sweet rice pudding to cool you off after the feast. {Indian accent here}-> Most excellent repast I must say, tank you beddy much Swagruha!
Re: “Bombay Palace”
If Jesus, Buddha, Gandhi, and other greats asked, "Where shall we eat?", I'd recommend the Bombay Palace! The food is flavorful, the service superior, and the price perfect.
Re: “Bombay Palace”
Flavor, Flavor, FLAVOR! This is hands-down my favorite Indian restaurant EVER! The food is so magnificent-- I wish I could eat more than my stomach allots :) The buffet is awesome, fresh, plentiful, and a complementary mixture of dishes. The waitstaff is attentive and smiley. And the price is SUPER reasonable and worth every cent.
Re: “Woodlands”
What can I say but great value for wonderful vegetarian fare!
Re: “Bombay Bistro”
This place was horrible. Not only was the service bad but the food was cold as well. This place had no A/C, even the employees were complaining about how hot it was. The owner was rude and the servers were super slow. I will never go back to this place ever again. I will stick to Sitar in Nashville or The Taste of India in Franklin.
Re: “Woodlands”
I can't believe this has not been reviewed!?!?! It is hands down the BEST Indian food in Nashville. I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't care when I'm here. Everything is that good. My favorites are actually on the Indo-Chinese portion of the menu which is very popular in India. If you are looking to blow your taste buds into the next stratosphere, try their: Hot & Sour Soup (better than most Asian restaurants), Szechwan Dosa (East meets, ummm, further East), and Paneer Chili (Chinese with Cheese, hell yeah!). You should also try the Salted Laasi which is better than I've had anywhere in the WORLD. The Chaats are are all pretty good as well. My wife and I usually go with the Papdi Chaat. The service is amazing, these guys don't walk, they run! And if you need awards on the wall to be convinced, they got plenty. Now stop reading my review and go to Woodlands!
Re: “Bombay Bistro”
I had heard nice things so I went but was very disappointed.
Goat curry meat was too tough, veggies were watery, and their famous chaat was too soggy instead of being crisp. Maybe the owner was having a bad day.
I hope they would get their act together soon as I love Indian food and they are conveniently located in Franklin.
Re: “Bombay Palace”
Love that place!!!!! The Best Indian Restaurant in Nashville.

Re: “Bombay Bistro”
Great Indian food, but why in the world are they so stingy with rice? I'm supposed to pay another $3 on top of my $35 takeout meal in order to get ONE serving per entree? One serving of rice per entree should be standard.
Again, the food's really good, but it's already more expensive than other similar opitons, and charging extra for rice (which is so cheap, after all) makes it a losing value proposition.

Re: “Shalimar”
Good food, but the portions have shrunk over the years. On our last visit my wife and I had a spoonful of aloo gobi each.

Re: “Best of India”
Very carefully prepared, tasty dishes & friendly service. There seems to be less fat in their stews and curries than in those of many Indian restaurants. Spice level is American - i.e., 'mild' is generally quite mild, tho' one may encounter variations. We've never ordered anything we didn't like, but we are especially fond of the lamb kadai, chicken sag and shrimp jal frezi. The vegetarian dishes are also very fine.

Re: “Bombay Palace”
Q-dang! I was so pleasantly surprised to find this gem of a restaurant. We showed up for dinner, only to find it empty. We pondered whether that was a bad sign or just a slow night. It was just a slow night! We shared a number of incredible dishes that were complex, spicy and just hands down amazing! The sauces were layered with flavors, velvety smooth and oh so creamy. The palak paneer was my favorite; out of this world! I haven't tried everything on the menu, but I don't think you could go wrong with whatever you decide to order. We loved it so much, we went back the next day for their awesome lunch buffet. $9.99 for all you can eat yumminess! There was a great variety of dishes for the buffet and i completely stuffed myself. Now for lunch, we had to wait. The small dinning room was packed, but again, well worth the 10 minuites we had to stand and salivate while others ate. I highly recommend this place if you love good food!
