After reading reviews we had great expectations for Titash…read more Booked a table for 7.30pm and on arrival there was a queue of diners waiting to be seated (good sign we thought) We weren't seated until around 8pm. The restaurant was busy and noisy and as mentioned in other reviews it was camped. It took a while before someone came to offer drinks and poppadoms etc. As we hadn't been given a drinks menu they gave us some more time but it ended up being about 20 minutes before someone came back. Drinks arrived but the Cobra draught beer was completely flat so ended up with bottled beer which we had to chase to get. Poppadoms arrived. We then ordered our main dishes. Then the tables next to us were filled by a group of 16 men who some of which turned out to be the noisiest, rowdy, most obnoxious diners we'd ever been seated near. Although it was only 4 or 5 of them making the row the noise really was unbearable. A couple next to them and us asked to be moved but as there were 6 of us there were no other seats so we couldn't do that. Other diners were receiving their mains but had ordered after us and we thought they had lost our order. We finally got our food at 9.40pm and were hopeful it was worth the wait. Sadly the food was disappointing too, 2 tikka massalas, 3 madras and a dhansak. Having eaten at many Indian restaurants over the years the food was bland and not the standard we would expect. The bhajees were over cooked, madras were lacking something in the flavour, tikka massalas had way too much coconut making them excessively sweet and the dhansank didn't have that spark it should. The group of men finally left and even the staff were relieved, we had about 20 minutes of quiet before we left. We normally leave a tip but on this occasion we didn't. Genuinely our worst dining experience ever.

They have a good selection of dishes and have specials to the restaurant which I can thoroughly recommend. They also offer a buffet during the day which isn't too expensive. My only criticism is that service can be slow when they are very busy, and sometimes you do have to prod them to see where your order is but I then try and look at it that at least you know it is being freshly cooked.

I always go into a new restaurant with a sense of trepidation as I'm one that likes a certain establishment and will always go back the same can be said with Bombay night!! From the minute you walk through the door to the free Bombay mix and being promptly seated at the table that had been booked even though we go there early the cobra was served with an effective and fast service where it was chilled at the right temperature to being served in the correct glasses but I digress from the main reason I'm writing this review and that is the food. Firstly the popadoms which where crisp but fluffy and had the perfect sides of chutneys the naan was just the right size and not too filling and provided a great a compliment to the rice and curry. The pilau rice was was nice and different to some that I have had at a curry house in other times where as usually I leave some of the rice I found myself wanting to eat it all. With the main curry it's self I went for the chicken vindaloo which again where you go it depends on the spice where as some you get it's just fire where as this vindaloo was easy on the palet the spice was perfectly balanced so that as well as heat you could taste the different spices. The chicken was balanced out with the potato so that one was not more than the other most usually the potato over the chicken the chicken itself was beautifully marinated and tender to cut into not dry on the inside but soft on the out because of the sauce. Include complimentary baileys and ice cream as well as the orange slices and mints lead to what I can truly say was a memorable dining experience and most definitely one of the most succulent currys I have had and believe me I have had a few in my time I can truly say i would happily go back to Bombay night the next time I am in Felixstowe.

The food is great and some of chefs specials are particularly good. For groups there is a set menu in which you get a lot per person which is great value and to top it off there is a liqueur or spirit which is always nice. Although its not quite as big as the Blue Naan, this is a great place to celebrate and the friendly staff are always helpful and chatty. The only down side to Bombay Nite is its location as it is on the outskirts of Felixstowe. This is great if you live nearer but for others it means a drive. Overall I would recommend Bombay Nite, even more so if you are celebrating something.

The menu is extensive and balances traditional Indian dishes, the usual suspects (balti, rogon josh, madras, etc) and a selection of locally produced dishes which include various seafood options. As with many Indian Restaurants the beer on tap is Cobra but they have an plethora of bottled beers and spirits. Mid week they also offer a takeway service however from Friday to Monday they run a tight ship which means booking ahead is important. One of the only downside is the parking as there is no designated car park, however with the seafront less than 100 yards away you can find a spot there and enjoy a short walk by the sea afterward.
