Bombay Brasserie will be closed for refurbishment from August 10th till November 2008.
"This is a stunning restaurant, just opposite Gloucester Road tube station, complete with murals of Indian beach scenes, a grand piano and friendly waiters. But, be warned, these lush surroundings don't come cheap, with starters being around the ?8 mark, and main courses coming in at ?18 or thereabouts. But the food is quite special - the sev batata puri which I started with consisted of flat crunchy biscuits, yoghurt, a tamarind chutney, potato and sev, and was really tangy and delicious. I then went for one of the vegetarian thalis - which basically saved me the bother of having to choose something from the extensive menu - and several of the people I was with did the same. And I wasn't disappointed - a generous mound of rice came with five or six small portions of different veggie curries - all very different but offering a perfect taste of the range of food on offer. The crispy deep fried okra, grated paneer and sweet baby potatoes went down particularly well! Although this is a fantastic restaurant, the prices mean it is definitely one for special occasions - or if someone else is paying!"
