    We made a reservation for the restaurant, but our goal was to make it down to the Roja Lounge. It's first come first serve and a smaller space, but we were eager to try it. The tequila and mezcal selection was very interesting and we were looking forward to try some of their cocktails or even a flight. Turns out, we were intrigued by the Mexican wines so we didn't do any cocktails! My husband did try a Mezcal that he really enjoyed. We ended up just ordering appetizers and were very full. Our favorite were the wagyu beef empanadas. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. It was a Sunday night and there was live music. By the time we left at 7pm the place was popping!

    The Bombay Club is a wonderful experience! Visiting there is a perfect way to spend an evening - the atmosphere, the delicious creative food, the ambiance - all contribute to a special evening. We have visited a number of times and each time makes us want to return again. You absolutely can’t go wrong dining here.

    I am vegan and the server had no problem making sure my meal was dairy-free and meat-free. She even told me there was fish broth in the Miso Soup, which I didn’t order due to her honesty. I think the restaurant should include the fish broth on the list of ingredients on the menu. Every ingredient should be listed when it comes to meat, diary or any spice with heat (cayenne, chili, etc.). Good food, good service. I have never had a bad meal here.
