Ordered a takeaway for Father’s Day. Food was piping hot when picked up and went down an absolute storm. Always an absolute delight ordering from such a reliable and family run business. We had garlic naan, peshwari naan both tasty and fresh. Also had 3 curries - Balti butter, lamb bhuna and a tikka masala - these were outstanding with great flavour and perfectly cooked chicken/lamb. Kudos to the chef and the lovely polite gentleman who served me. (No pics as was demolished before could even think to do so). Proper nice and you’re paying for top quality scran.

I have been going to Bombay Joes for many years, and the quality of food and in particular the friendly service never disappoints. We visited last night and had a superb meal. Usual starters of poppadoms, lovely onion chutney and chicken tikka. I have tried chicken tikka all over Scotland and it never beats Bombay Joes, tender, succulent beautifully spiced tikka My wife had sag gosht with tender lamb infused with lots of spinach and just the right heat. I had Chicken Tikka Balti Bhuna - madras hot and it certainly had a kick. Whatever level of spice you ask for, they always get it spot on. Accompanied by a Nan bread and watered down with lovely chilled Sauvignon blanc. Highly recommend this brilliant Indian, well done to Colveer and all the staff!

Fantastic as usual, never had a bad meal here. Would thoroughly recommend. We were seated quickly, offered drinks straight away, offered more drinks when bringing the main course. We never had to ask the server to come over for anything. Great service and we were well looked after.

Used this restaurant many times, always good food. Ordered takeaway for collection earlier this month, just short of £20 for 1 curry rice and nan, chicken was inedible, had to use a steak knife to cut, thought maybe just one bad bit but all chicken pieces were awful. Called the next day to complain was told it would be better next time I visit (sorry won't be back after many years), expensive curry sauce and rice!

Decided to go for a date night with my husband and seen the good reviews for this restaurant. Unfortunately we were extremely disappointed. We would go as far to say this meal was the worse we have ever had. The food is extremely expensive for the quality and quality you get. £7 for onion bhaji that was exactly like the one you get from Tesco. £15.95 for a chicken passanda... this curry was the worse thing I've ever tasted. It was like eating warm cream. No seasoning or flavour. Just warm cream. The chicken was terrible too. I had to add mango chutney to it to make it edible enough to have a few mouthfuls. Not once were we asked how our food was. In fact the waiter was sat behind the bar alot. My husband in the end got up to ask for him to bring the bill and stood at the bar looking at the waiter and the waiter remained there texting on his mobile, and didn't even look up. In the end my husband abruptly said can you bring the bill. The waiter came over and took the plates and still didn't ask if everything was alright. So we got up and paid. After we paid my husband said 'are you not once going to ask how everything was' and explained that it was the worse meal and we would never return and also said about the service not being much better and about how the waiter was too busy texting. The waiter said 'it's just our delivery drivers as we also do takeaways that's why I am on the phone'. He did apologise and say sorry for the food and the service as we were leaving but it didn't repair the damage. Almost £70 our of pocket on an overpriced inedible meal. Absolutely awful experience.

Curries were tasty but felt for the price, the portions were a bit mean. Dissappointed with dessert, a banana cut in half with some tinned fruit and a dollop of icecream. Didnt feel it was great value for money.

We went here after reading reviews about it being the best Indian restaurant in Dundee. Disappointingly we found it to be over rated. The food was expensive and mediocre. We found the poppadoms and chutney expensive with them charging over £5 for the chutneys when in most Indian restaurants you get them included with the price of the poppadoms. The menu continued to be at least £2 over what we would expect to pay. The rice was luke warm and the curry nothing special. I found this along with the high prices disappointing. By all means go and find out for yourselves but we definitely won’t be returning.

Chose to eat here for the first time and I can say I was not disappointed. The curry I had was amazing (chicken Kashmiri ) and my husband had a tandoori platter which was also spectacular. The service was friendly and attentive and had a good mix of ensuring you were satisfied but also leaving you to enjoy your privacy and your food . The only down side was the size of the food choice on the menu so I really struggled to chose as I wanted to try all If it! Will need to go back to try another dish. One of the best Indian meals we’ve had. And the naan bread is the best I’ve ever tasted . Light and buttery . Very impressed.

Went on a Saturday night at 19.15h having booked. We were ignored and kept waiting at entrance while staff chatted to a friend; very poor welcome. Ordered two side dishes with peshwari nan. As previously noted, very expensive but it was very nice.Waited almost one hour before it arrived. Had to ask twice for the nan which arrived after we had eaten some mouthfuls. No one asked how meal was and we asked three times for bill before getting up, putting our coats on and going up to counter to pay. I hate this. It was very busy which you would expect on a Saturday. However, decor not inspiring, no atmosphere and customers sitting on top of each other. Wouldn’t return but maybe better to get a takeaway.

Excellent restaurant, great quality food with lots of vegan and vegetarian options and knowledgable staff. Relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Takeaway quality is just as good as eating in. They always happy to change ingredients to meet dietary requirements and often offer to veganise a dish for me if I like the sound of it!

Whenever we visit Broughty Ferry, Dundee, we always find time to visit Bombay Joe’s and it never disappoints. The choice and quality of the food is outstanding and the service is friendly and informative. Bombay Joe’s has won awards in the past and deserves to do so again.

Visited for an early evening meal and decided to opt for their Hight Tea menu. Whilst the sheek kebab was outstanding we felt most of the food was rather bland for our tastes. The onion chutney and bhuna curry in particular had to be seasoned to bring out any discernible flavour. The crockery from the 1990's is from the Jeff Banks "Ports of Call" range as indeed is the tiling in the toilets. Prices are on the high side with even a basic bottle of blush costing £27. Service was very good. We are in no hurry to return.

Food was OK but nothing special. My request for a hot curry consisted of a medium curry with a few dried chillies thrown on top. Very, very expensive, need to be rich to eat here on a regular basis.

Got a delivery from here, late, cold, no flavour, garlic naan was plain, chicken korma was a veg korma. Spoilt my night. Avoid like the plague, there are plenty of better takeaways around here.

100% disagree with the last two reviews. Always wonder if these people complain at the time to give the restaurant a chance to put it right or if they just jump straight on here…? We visited as a couple very recently. Absolutely epic! New to the area and found this little gem of a restaurant. Wonderful service, top quality food. I ordered the mixed platter for my main - so much meat and all perfectly cooked. The service was great, very attentive and polite staff. We will be back!
