Lovely food and friendly, helpful staff. Nice setting in the city too. Enjoyed my vindaloo (hot, but not crazy so) and mushroom rice. Will visit this place again.

nice food and attentive staff, very busy on a Saturday night so it is best to book. The only downside is the tables are on the small side so a bit cramped but it wouldn`t put me off going again.

Food was good but very, very spicy, we'd asked for medium, honestly I'm not a wimp when it comes to curries. Service was excellent, staff very attentive, food came quickly. Would recommend and would go again but will ask them for less chillies next time

On a trip down from Scotland, we had looked up places to eat and as Bombay Spice had won awards in recent years, we thought we'd give it a try. Not disappointed at all. Fantastic food, lovely staff, prompt efficient service, clean and lovely atmosphere!

The food was equisite. There was so much flavour. The only reason for not giving 6 stars is due a a slight mix up on one of the dishes. That being said the waiter resolved the issue in less than 5 minutes. Will definitely visit again and would highly recommend.

Great food and excellent service. However the table was up against the bar and therefore the staff were always around and it felt as though we were not left alone to eat our meals. It will not put us coming back though when in York.

We went for the lunch menu. Food was good - good size portions, nice and hot. It would be good if the lunch menu included a popadom as well, as other restaurants do. It was very quiet, only 2 other customers, but that’s probably not unusual for that time of day and year.
