Just be aware that this is not Indian food. I'm not trying to be rude or offend anyone but a lot of non-Indians are making comments about this place as if they are getting genuine Indian food. That would be the equivalent of someone eating at Taco Bell and then saying they had great Mexican food.
Yes, the food is not heavy because....IT'S NOT INDIAN FOOD! The owner is a multi-millionaire engineer who opened this place with the intent of appealing to the mainstream. In short, this is the PF Changs of Indian food. It's designed to appeal to non-Indians. The food is deliberately less seasoned to appeal to palates that can't withstand spicy food. The food has also has several contemporary American twists on it to also appeal to the mainstream. There is nothing wrong with that but Bombay Spice should not be approached as an Indian restaurant but rather a swank a little Indian-American fusion eatery. If you want to try something different that is still tasty, check it out. If you just moved here and are craving good ole fashioned Indian food, check out Royal Taj, Guru Palace, and Dehli Palace
