You can't miss out on this one when you are in London!!
This place is located in the corner of Mayfair, a little hard to locate but is super crowded. Love their style of menu and an amazing selection of curries which when paired with their famous appams feel like heaven in you mouth. Will definitely visit again.
Recently Had lunch at this Iconic Indian Restraunt , we were very happy with quantity and quality of Food served and the courtious Gestures by staff , must eat Paneer Butter masala with Naan of your choice or Rice if looking for vegetarian , Daba Daal is also very tasty , go for broccoli malai or paneer tikka for sides .There Indian desserts are also very great 👌👌 Thanks Team Bombay Bustle 🙏
The bustle was there. The drinks were interesting with the Kerala leaf and ginger and the Andhra spicy with mango. The kanchipuram idols and choley bhatura along with the trio of dosas were a great way to start. The spicy prawns with appams the keema biryani were delectable but my special was the vada lab bringing out the best of Bombay
We were slightly late to our booking. As we attended the host was polite and was awaiting our arrival.
Albeit a little quiet when we sat down (around 6pm on Sunday) the restaurant was filled to the brim but the time we left - seems to definitely be a bustling place!
In regards to the food, it was superb. Packed full of flavour, textures and wonderfully balanced dishes were served to us. I would say the Chicken Mahkni and Tandoori chicken were stand outs! Also the trio of dosa - light and devilishly satisfying.
The decor was nice, the whole feeling was like you were in an old school Indian train with the very last details being paid attention to. Dishes were served in old school tiffins - what a great experience.
My only gripe with the place was the price and the service charge which was over ÂŁ50 for I would say mediocre service at best.
Would I return? YES! I do recommend however please be aware that it can get a little pricey - but I guess that’s expected in this part of London!
Had the pleasure of eating at Bombay Bustle Friday evening 25/8/23. Fairly empty but we had booked a table anyway.
Food was expensive, and portions were smaller than I was expecting, however they did not disappoint.
It was divine- some of the best butter naan I've ever had as well. Paired well with the Chicken Makhani.
Also had lamb chops- only 3 chops per portion however they are on the larger side of chops. I'd say slightly overcooked.
I'd give the Chicken Makhani 5/5 but the chops a 3.5/5- relative to the price.
Mango lassi was great- I usually have this after spicy food in between dishes.
For dessert, we had their Banana Toffee Dessert, which came with thick cream and topped with white chocolate curls. A strong dessert.
Convenient location too
ÂŁ50-60 per person in my case but expect to pay up to ÂŁ80/90 if you're hungry

Great menu selection. There is an option to pay ÂŁ75 and taste many dishes, but for minimum 2 people. For the price you can do an amazing meal choosing what you rather have.
We got the chilli paneer - too chewing for my taste. I really didn’t enjoy. But except for it everything was amazing. Bustle platter as well for starters. For mains: keralan fish curry, chicken biryani (the rice was so soft, it was very nicely made), paneer butter masala (amazing, one of the best paneer curries I ever ate), selection of bread + paratha + naan + roomali roti. And ended with chicken tandori, nicely tender. Dessert we had the sorbet trio + falooda + banana cake (this one was too strong, something wasn’t work in the flavour). The main saloon it is really nice as a train carriage. We sat downstairs where has less light and more cosy. Nice indian restaurant. Worthy going
I love the dosa the most. And the desserts are amazing. Kulfi and gulab jamun tiramisu are so good. The eggplant is also good. Lamb a bit too spicy. Overall good.
Before we go any further: gulab jamun IN A TIRAMISU people! Sorry Italy, but these babies are soft moist and go perfectly with the marscapone. Genius. I also loved the dosa trio was pancake soft, and so delicious with the lamb and sauces on the side! The keema pau was one of my favorites too, such good flavor but didn’t mask the lamb flavor. But what can?! Of course a mango lassi to wash it all down!
Went a few weeks ago but forgot to write a review!
Had a fab time for my besties birthday! Loved our food. Only down side was my friend had to ask for extra chillies as the food wasn't spicy enough for her (she likes her food extra spicy!)
The star of the show was definitely the Gadbad Sundae for dessert absolutely amazing! The chilli syrup with the ice creams was a stroke of genius!
The atmosphere was fun and the decor was beautiful and unique, such a great place to eat. We would definitely recommend Bombay Bustle to everyone we know.
Service was good but our server did forget to bring the chillies we asked for and forgot to bring the bill after we asked so we did have to ask twice for these things but the restaurant was busy so it was understandable and didnt really have any impact on how much we enjoyed our visit.
We will definitely be back!!
Service and ambience were great. Food was alright, small plates and tandoor dishes were much better than the mains, which were underwhelming to say the least.
Akuri truffle naan was out of this world, I would highly recommend it! Keema Pao and Chilgoza broccoli were also excellent.
The breads were all delicious. Lasooni palak was also great. Other than that, the mains were highly disappointing, in particular the Mirch and Baingan Salan, which was anything but a salan and extremely bland.
Desserts were nice, but nothing special. BB Cutting Chai however was spot on!
Bombay Bustle is worth a try, but probably only once.
I went to Bombay Bustle for lunch with a colleague. We were not disappointed. We tried a fair few dishes from the starters and loved it all. The dosa's were my favourite along with the king prawns. The staff were friendly and didn't rush us, we took our time and they were very helpful in helping us select dishes.I would def go back again.
Food, atmosphere, location and drinks are all perfect. Service is fine. Price is above for all of these which ends up the review with four stars. Reservation is definitely needed. It’s a LSL Capital investment restaurant which includes Socca, Koym, Mimi Mei Fair in their portfolio.
We had dinner at this lovely restaurant. Gave 5 stars to food and service, unfortunately had to give 3 stars for the atmosphere. The music was too loud to have a conversation and on top that some guests ( not the restaurant's fault) were extremely loud.
All in all, a good experience.
If you’re around regent street its a good lunch spot. I usually make a reservation but they always welcome walk-ins. Keema pao and vegetable samosa are my favourite
Amazing from start to finish! Best Indian meal I've EVER had! We had a the six course tasting menu and couldn't fault a single thing. The service from Clayton ( potential apologies for the spelling ) was honestly some of the best service we've had in any restaurant. Attentive but not pushy at all and also very knowledgeable of all the dishes. We will 100% return ( as soon as possible!! )
Thank you so much for a special night Bombay Bustle!
Food was ok, not worth the hype or price. We had:
Old Gold Fashion -- 5/5
Pearl of Bombay -- 5/5
Malai Broccoli -- 3/5
Samosa chat -- 4/5
Paneer Butter Masala -- 4/5
Garlic Naan -- 5/5
Butter Naan -- 5/5
There's no privacy since the table next to you is about 6 inches away and you can overhear other tables.
I hate to give 4 starts but I genuinely liked it but didn't love it enough to go back!
A spontaneous evening where we were lucky enough to get a table as a walk in.
Starters were excellent!
The Dal was lovely too that went well with the rice.
Staff were friendly and honest with recommending food so we didn’t end up over ordering.
Atmosphere was intimate and cosy, I’d recommend requesting to be seated downstairs.
Definitely would recommend!
Love this place! Amazing food, flavours, creative execution and ideas. Outstanding service, staff can’t do enough for you. Great drinks menu and the decor just adds to the ambience. Forgot to take pictures of the mains because we were too busy eating and enjoying!
