"We were given a table right next to the window so we had a lovely view of the river. We were happy to find an Indian restaurant as it is our favourite cuisine. It had many vegetarian and vegan options on the menu. We chose the samosas to start and they came with three small pots of dipping sauce. It was a good job because without the sauce they would have been dry and bland. We needed more sauce. I chose the butter panir masala because that is usually my favourite sauce but the panir did not taste right and I wasn't sure whether it might be off so I didn't finish it, which was a shame because the sauce was very good. The waiter said he spoke English but didn't seem to understand us, so we had to point a lot."

Returned to Bombay Palace after a few months and severely disappointed: too high priced food for too small dishes and poor service…I won’t return again.

Had the lunch special, soup, naan, a curry very good value and good taste! High up and nice windows to watch the river flowing by Friendly staff, I would come here again, they have a lot of good looking things on the menu!

We live in Basel and enjoy going here: a view of the river, nice owner, reasonable prices and tasty food. And the restaurant tends to be relatively empty I think because the Swiss don't like to eat ethnic food so much. But we love it. Highly recommend.

Das essen hat uns wieder nach Indien gebracht!! :-) Sehr gut war auch, dass sie uns ein Veganes Thali gemacht haben. Real Tandoori Naan! Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich und verständnisvoll! Der Blick auf den Fluss und die Atmosphäre war sehr angenehm.Danke! Wir kommen sicher wieder!

There is much to like about this restaurant: The river view, the simple but classy interior and the seven vegan main dishes. However the only outdoor seating is on the street side (somewhat loud) and at least the person I talked to had trouble communicating in English or German so it was hard to find out about vegan issues. Note that the internet only has the menu from their Zurich branch and does not show the vegan dishes.

Am relieved we found this restaurant after trying other Indian places in Basel for a long time. We had not liked either the food or ambience of other Indian restaurants in the past, and tried New Bombay in early 2022. Love the Karahi Gosht (lamm) and the okra in spices dishes, and these are great together. The butter chicken (tried for the kids) was the most elegant version of that dish I have ever had. Rice is light and perfectly prepared. Love also the mix grill. Highly recommend the food, and appreciate the white table clothes inside.

+ Wir hatten Samosa und Naan mit Gurkenjoghurt zur Vorspeise und ein Butter Chicken und Mango Chicken als Hauptgang. Das Essen war gut gewürzt und hat toll geschmeckt. Es wird in der Mitte des Tisches auf einer Wärmeplatte serviert.So konnten wir gut teilen.- Wir hatten einen Tisch am Fenster reserviert, der war aber besetzt als wir kamen.Wir wurden an die Wand gesetzt.Auf dem Papiertischtuch lagen schon 3 tote Mücken. An der Wand waren Spinnweben voller Mücken und auch die Lampen waren voller toter Mücken.Ausserdem ist die Deko für ein indisches Restaurant sehr dürftig.Wir fanden für den Preis von Fr.96.- (Das Essen plus 4 Getränke) konnte man mehr erwarten.
