Incomparable – I'm not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about. Maybe the service wasn't friendly b/c they weren't friendly patrons. Personally, I've experienced such friendly staff that I've been known by name since my first visit. Regardless, the food is fantastic. The sauces are consistently good enough to eat by themselves, (I've literally eaten spoonfuls), while the meat is always tender and the shrimp, plump and scrumptious. Tikki masala, tandoori, vindaloo and the samosa are staples for us! Dine in, or... read more

Bad service, good food – Great food but horrid service! This restaurant is better for take out rather than eating in. Suprising, since there is more attitude here than the trendy LA eateries...

Leave me alone! – The service is outrageous! We ordered an appetizer and they gave us small plates for it. I was enjoying my appetizer when the waiter went to grab my plate!! I told him I wasn't finished. A minute later he went to grab my plate again! I couldn't believe it!! I said, please leave it I'm still eating. He stood there staring at me. I actually took the food off the plate and put it on my napkin and said "Ok Take the plate!" He grabbed it like a dog grabbing his food and running. It's like I had the last plate in... read more

Best Indian Food in the SFV – Even though the Bollywood Cafe is no where near my home or office, the food is so delicious it's worth the trip! Everything on the menu is delicious and a good value too. We always have leftovers. The service is great. The only drawback is the restaurant is tiny and so on a busy night it can be hard to hear. I completely recommend this restaurant though and it's my first choice when I have a curry craving! Also, I have never gotten anything but excellent service!

Great – Bollywood Cafe is BY FAR THE BEST INDIAN FOOD I have ever experienced. Not only is the atmosphere of the restaurant - including the friendliness and service of the staff and authentic feel - wonderful, but the food is absolutely delicious. In fact, I was not even much of a fan of Indian cuisine until I took the advice of a friend, after she assured my skeptical self that Bollywood would change my opinion, and gave in by going and taking another stab at liking it. Needless to say, I love it (at Bollywood, that is!) an... read more

A tradition – yeah this is our tradition. amazing tikka masala sauce (without the chicken)...you know, we go with our friends and everyone has a different way of eating their naan, rice, and masala sauce....some make a naan pizza, some make a sandwich. some eat it with a fork. you can be creative with it. i just had to write a review because we are their #1 customers...even though they know my husband and both my friends names but always ignore me. who cares, i still have fun. (: yay BWOOD forever.

Eat - Enjoy - Repeat – We've probably eaten at Bollywood more than a dozen times now - we love this place. Great food (mixed tandoori appetizer, chicken spinach, shrimp bhuna, mattar paneer are standouts); you can order the level of "hot" you like from mild to scorching. One minor quibble is that sometimes the breads (naans, etc) seem like they've been hanging around waiting for a customer for too long. Service is friendly, the restaurant is small but they've resisted the temptation to try to cram those couple of extra table... read more

Would not go again – The fried papadum that came before the meal tasted of old oil. Upon telling the waiter he simply took it away. No explanations. The chicken tikka masala was dry. The food was quite awful. The service was painfully slow and people who came after us got their food before us. (Maybe we should not have called them out on their spoilt cooking oil). Would most definitely not go there again. Save your money. McD's is a much better option.

Very Good!... – This has been my favorite Indian restaurant so far and I can never stay away for too long. I'm a vegetarian and have loved every non-meat dish I've tried so far. The mataar paneer and aloo gobi are excellent as well as the nan bread and rice. Yum!
