Went with my daughter for lunch in June 2025. I have eaten Indian food all over the world, and this is truly the best naan that I have ever had. The paneer tikka masala was heavenly, and the other three curries we had were fabulous! The woman who welcomed us and made the food made it very clear to us: "This is YOUR restaurant, And you are very very welcome!" The only critique is that the air conditioning was off, and it is a hot day by our Pennsylvania standards. However, we understood, because it is certainly not a hot day by Bombay standards, at 87°F! Thank you for a wonderful meal, served with utmost graciousness!

My go to place for Indian food. Does not have an extensive menu, but what they serve is good. Kitchen visible so you can watch your food being made. I've never eaten in. Interior is more basic cafe than restaurant. Staff are friendly.

Bombay Dhabba has been my go-to place, for dine-in and takeout. Although today I went to pick up my order and found them closed. I had even paid online for my order. This was unexpected and I hope their business is doing well. Their food quality and service remains excellent in my eyes.

It's a go-to place for quick pick ups. Wada-Pav, Chole Bhature & Kathi Rolls are must try. The restaurant is very clean and the owner / main chef is absolutely top notch!

The tasty place to eat in and around Malvern area. Their food are made freshly every single day with touch of home cooked meal. I am giving them a 5 Stars just because taste of their food since it is far in between to find any good desi restaurants. Most of their menu items are better than every other restaurant in the area, at least in my opinion. Due to their small seating arrangements it is hard at times to find any table. This is my new go to place for all my"to go" orders.

Traveling home from a late travel soccer game for my oldest, we happened upon Bombay Dhabba. The food came out quickly and appeared/tasted to be fresh and hand-made. Folks in the back were talking brightly to each other, even this late on, while rolling and filling dough and cooking. Any questions we had were answered quickly. While most of their business seemed to be carry-out (we were the only customers eating inside), everyone was helpful and kind. The restaurant is colorful and clean. While no one sat down to eat when we were there, it was probably because of the late hour on a Sunday night. However, the in & out traffic of to-go orders suggest we weren't the only people interested in eating there. Anything we needed was at-hand or offered to us. The food was delicious! My wife is vegetarian and my boys and I eat meat too, so we loved the mix of choices for all. The vegetable samosas were hot and perfectly done for an appetizer. We got two Family Meals - this let's you get two choices of entrees and two bread choices. We did one veg and one meat combo. The Dhabba Lamb Curry was a fan-favorite for the boys and I, as was the Saag Paneer for the whole crew. We also had the Dal Makhani and Chicken Tikka Masala - similarly fantastic. I will be wanting more of their Garlic Naan as soon as possible, too. Each person was able to get a sample of things they wanted and left quite full. (This says a lot because I have a 16 year old who plays sports and is NEVER full.) My 8 year old now expects to come here weekly as the lady who sent food over the counter buttered him up with all kinds of kind words and a Mango Lassi at the end. Here's to more soccer games in the area! I know exactly where we will end up!

This place is dope. We've been to other locations and we're happy to see this one in Eaoli. It's a small business and only had two staff the Saturday we visited so service was a little slow. But this food is going to ruin the image and the style that your used to.
