Bombay Bites in Scarborough

Very very dissappointed with a business that associates its name with Bombay but does grave injustice. Like the previous reviewer, I should have been forewarned as there was only one girl in this place and it seems she was the greeter, server, cook, cashier and probably the owner. And NO one in the eating area, when the neighbours were busy as hell. I ordered a Cheese Chilli, a Grilled Veg Sandwich and a Kathi Roll for take out. All three items were hugely dissappointing in terms of quality, size taste and most of all a rip off at $10 bucks for each. The bread was as tiny as you can get, cheese chilli was literally cheese with some green chilli pieces. Lol. The Kathi roll was wrapped in Tortilla shit, NO Paratha. And the grilled sandwich left a lot to be desired. Ketchup was in sachets... god knows from where and how old,,,, And upon request, I was given some extra green chutney that seemed more like a Bhel or Chaat chutney, NOT a sandwich chutney. UGGGGHHHHHH! I tried to call the owner, but no answer all calls going to voicemail. Never going there again, unless I see a Under New Management Board...if at all!

Food and place was very unhygienic No proper Service at all No tasty at all .. food had a stinky smell Food : 1/5

The vadapav and samosa chat are just so good and its worth it to try especially vadapav.

Bad taste. Pathetic food. They serve stale food. No hygiene was maintained outlet was smelly.

I had pav bhaji from here and it was worst pav bhaji I have ever eaten I would never recommend and never eat again

I tried the food up here, I really loved the taste and they are very professional in making and very well behaved with customers.. must be try if you are pure vegetarian.

Great place to get your favourite Indian snacks

one of the worst places I have ever had food we ordered 2 mishal pav and there was bad small coming out and it was test less when so when we ask lady about it she said may be the chavana has old oil so the answer was bad too we stood up and left the food and she had no courtesy to say even for refund the money (then my son took money back from the lady) or I can make new one very bad experience I would suggest pls dont go to the place where the food is not at all quality

Pathetic food

Very delivious food

We ordered noodles, there is no veggie accept for onions in it

Great

Worst customer service ever and food

I ordered Veg cheese Frankie and Grilled Schezwan samosa sandwich and I had food poisoning after having the food! The food tasted very odd and not fresh at all and I ended up puking several times! I would not recommend this place to anyone if you are concerned about your health!

Worst food. Complete waste of money.

It is a cozy little place to dine in or to take out. I appreciate the Person working there. At first when I ordered Samosa Chat, I was expecting crispy Samosas with chole and sauces. But, I was told that they freeze the samosas and fry it and microwave it for the chat. That s why samosas were soggy. TBH.. I am one of those people who eat samosas for the flakey crispy crust. Samosas are my cheat meal once a week and if that is not right - i feel sad. When I bought this to her attention, she was gracious enough to accommodate my preference and made a new chat for me with relatively crispier crust samosa s. That was super generous of her and of course ! I am a fan for their sugar free Chai. Vegetarian options: It s pure vegetarian place ..

Worst food ever. Please stay away from this place.Ordered Shahi panner and half the container was just oil. No one in their right mind would make and serve food like this

Excellent food must try

Too spicy. Maybe a good place for spicy addicts

Taste really needs improvement. Tried 3 items - all are flop. Cook seem to be really inexperienced. Cold food. Never again.

Pav bhaji was really pathetic. Misal pav was not bad.

Food quality is very bad:(

Worst !! Waste of money !! Even I don t feel owner cares about it !! Very bad !! Order through Uber eats and got total disappointments

Worst paani puri ever dont visit there for pani puri swear to god

Awesome vada pav!

Worst food experience. I ordered my food online and it was awful. I ordered grilled schezwan vadapav, and grill schezvan samosa pav but it tasted like they boiled up samosas a month ago.. and I cant even explain the taste of schezvan chutney. Ill not recommend this store to anyone. Literal waste of money.

The quality of the Veg Grilled Cheese Sandwich was quite bad. The masala chai was passable. Disappointing.

My go-to place for chats.

I have order fried rice from door dash it was very spicy and it was not cooked properly hakka noodles was very oily and was really bad not recommending to anyone else

Worst food ever!! Sandwiches were cold, vada pav tasteless. Totally waste of money. Spend 100$ for garbage!!!!!!

We tried this place for the first time and we loved the variety of vegetarian selection. From the paneer pizza, chaat, vada, and then finished off with masala chai tea and faluda after a spicy meal. It was excellent! Great prices and sample portions! If you every want to try a hidden gem and have an evening snack in Scarborough, this is the place! Well be back for sure! Highly recommend this All Vegetarian Indian fast food restaurant! Vegetarian options: Good selection. Good prices. Parking: Lots of parking on premises.

First visit and we tried pani poori i mean the only thing you can t mess up but here you go . The worst pani poori I ever had.

A nice hole-in-the-wall kind of place serving authentic Bombay street food. I really enjoyed their Ragda Pattice, very tasty with a perfect balance of spices, tanginess, and dal curry. Will visit again in the future to try out their other offerings. Staff are very friendly, courteous, and responsive. Parking can be a little tight, but I would not fault the restaurant for it as they are located in a small strip mall with many other businesses and limited parking. Highly recommended for a quick snack, eat-in or take-out.

off tasting pav bhaji, also it s $11? 2.50 for a can of pop.

Good

Desi, gujju, and authentic Indian environment. Love the way aunty treats you kindly.

First and foremost, it takes almost forever to get the order as apparently theres only one guy working Second, I ordered a vadapav, and the taste was below average, not even worth for half the price they charge for Lastly, the place is so small that even 5 customers would make it look packed.

Indian test , spicy food makes good taste nice one try one time atleast

Worst experience! I ordered veg cheese frankie but I wonder how a frankie can taste like dabeli?!? May be they are using same potato stuffing for each items. Too much oily. Ive ordered cold coco too but it was also horrible with expired chocolate chips on it. Overall it was literally waste of money. DO NOT VISIT BASED ON FAKE REVIEWS

I tried misal pav for the first time it was pathetic. Felt like it was leftover and sev was bitter in taste. Vadapav was okay but never going back there again. I would appreciate if you improve your quality of food.

Weve tried misal pav and it was the worst taste that Ive ever done in my life as it was too bitter seems like something wrong happened to it. I never suggest to anyone even for the single chance. Before takeout I asked at the counter and she told me it would be spicer one but paradoxically its not even spicy and just spoiled our entire mood.

Frankie was way tooooo oilyyy, money wasted, got sick too

To be honest- the wada pav comes very close to the one you would get in Mumbai and the masala tea is just too good.

Good tasty quick bites

Didn t even wanted to give this one star. Terrible food, we asked for vada pao and they gave us burger with an aloo tikki and it was so spicy like over spicy. Zero star

Worst worst worst place to eat, ordered vada pao and they literally gave us aalo tikki in a burger bun. Come on, at least keep the food authentic. Also, It was so spicy that it burnt my mouth. Do not waste your time. Hope I could give them 0 star.

Chinese bhel is a must try. Also liked vada pao and paav bhaji. Sandwich and Manchurian was not too different then other places

Ordered Noodle burger, chai , bun maska. 1.Noodle burger- patty and noodles were stale 2.Chai- a touch bitter. 3.Bun maska was decent. Sitting area is filthy though no hygiene.

I only tried their Vada pao, i am a huge fan of spicy & their Grill Schezwan Vada Pay is on of the spiciest vada in Ontario actually..

Never order through delivery apps from here; these people don t care about your order being delivered

Very poor they missed my drink and cut money . Worst of worst .

Food is substandard! Pricey, indifferent behaviour of the staff. Quite dirty, does not look like they clean it often even.

We ordered masala chai for 3 people. All of us did not like it and coudn t have it after a few sips. The place did not look like it is cleaned often.

Worst burger i ever tried in Canada. The burger tikki was tasting like it was baked month ago.They don t even know what is the real taste of burger. If you don t want to waste your money don t try this place

I tasted Worst food ever at a fine dine price. Dont even waste your time here. U wont even need to read this review as soon as you will step inside u will know what I am trying to say. Food : 1/5

Ordered Schezwan vada pav, panneer frankie and veg pizza. Liked Schezwan vada pav but other items were just okay.

Absolute disappointment! Ordered a pizza, pav bhaji and munchurian. Let s start with the pizza first. Extremely undercooked. I ordered paneer makhani pizza and I could still see the shredded cheese on top, meaning it hadn t been heated long enough for the pizza to melt properly. The crust, extremely soft and not well done. The gravy under all the cheese made me wanna vomit. Pav bhaji, extremely mid. You can make that at home instead of wasting your money on that here. The manchurian, way too spicy but still better than everything else we ordered. I wish there was a way to get refund on all that wasted food (yes we threw it in the bin instead of finishing it).

Delicious Food ! Tempting taste

Worst food ever tried

We went to this place for lunch and ordered Samosas and sweet lassi with mawa. It took so long for the samosas to come too. It was one of the worst Samosas. They were burnt when we got them, they were black on the edges. The lassi was supposed to have mawa but it just had grated paneer. The lassi was supposed to be sweet but it was little bit salty. It was really disappointing. This place had this weird smell as well. The place was pretty small as well with very few tables. I do not recommend going to this place.

Nice person and good service just place a bit old but we can easily forget that in taste they offer

Pani puri was too salty and vadapav was not fresh

Amazing tea and lovely staff

Brought samosa chaat. Samosa smell was awful. You can smell old potato. Never going back. I m pretty sure I m going to be sick.

So disappointed. Ordered Paneer Manchurian & Masala Fried Rice. Came home & saw there is no paneer at all! It is veg balls in gravy and only few paneer grated on top! I felt so disappointed. It s cheating the customer. We paid & ordered expecting paneer. I called the place & the lady said that s how they make paneer manchurian- its veg balls only few thin strips of paneer grated on top. The food was prepared so fast- seemed like just tossed in pre-made sauces and given. Very disappointing this store needs to do better.

One of the worst food I tried. I ordered grill sandwich and was cold. The vegetables inside were smelling. I almost felt like puking. Never go again.

Rip off alrlert! 1 star for the watered down lassi! It was chaas not lassi and was a rip off! Veg sandwiches were just 3 slices of bread and minimal veggies. Our total bill was $30+tax for bread and some yogurt!

I went to the store on the weekend last week. Im not judging it nor trying to degrade the place, but as soon as I entered, I smelled Stinky and the place looked a bit ok ok(ish). I tried ignoring it and ordered, Schezwan Noodles, Schezwan Fried Rice and a Vada Paav. Honestly, I dont want to point out, the person who made the order forgot to put rice in the oil. Yes, you did read it right. It looked like, she added oil, all the spices and just added rice to garnish that. (It wasnt exactly the person did). My order was completely filled with oil. I literally threw them away. It was so bad.

I went yesterday with my friends and all of us are feeling sick because of food poisoning. Its not recommended to eat from this place.

Awesome Food

The staff is very friendly over here. And on top of that the food was also awesome.

It was overall good experience and hospitality was great.

I tried there bhaji pav that s really worth it and quality is really good. They have nice cutting chai highly recommended.

The food was really good. Loved the Frankie they have. Tried their samosa too but they were ok. Will definitely return.

One of the worst service experience. When I reached to this joint, no one was there to attend the walk in customers and I waited there for 10 -15 minutes for a staff to appear at the cash counter. The bell to ring was kept far away so that the customers can t even reach it. After 15 minutes when I knocked the kitchen door, instead of empathize with me waiting the staff arrogantly told me that you don t knock the kitchen door. The place looks ugly and no hygiene at all. The quality of food, I ordered butter vada pav was so bad that my dog can t even eat such food. Such a shame to have a place with the name of Bombay and staff which doesn t event have any manners. If you value the service and food quality, never visit this place.

Go to place for the szhwein vada pav! Amazing.

Very nice service. Extremely happy with how helpful the guy working there was. Will definitely re visit and re order

Worst Pavbhaji ever of my life. Chef of this restaurant Need to learn basics of cooking particularly Pav bhaji. They charged $10 but not even worth $1.

You really get to feel the taste of street food from India, Best dish i would say was Dabeli,

Chai was good but the aloo tikki chat seemed to be out of a freezer and sandwich was just about okay.

First stop from Ottawa to Toronto to have some snacks, visited this place.. The owner is welcoming.. Had vada-pav, as expected with all Indian spices. It was delicious! Would definitely recommend to have vada pav if you prefer spicy food!

I ordered through doordash - their schezwan noodles and veg manchurian were truly inedible. I threw out the whole order. There was a stale smell to them. I would not recommend the food from here. Kinda wish I would ve saved myself the money instead of spending it here

Food taste really sucks packing is not good totally it s wast of money

I went to the restaurant at 22:25 and despite having mentioned on google maps the timing as 23:00 they denied serving us cause they had a lot of Uber orders. Absolute nonsense.

Worst place to order don t even know how the food is but the service is not even acceptable don t even know why they opened a business when they cannot even handle customers. I was told it will take 40 minutes for your order but i waited for more then 1 hour but the order was still not ready. Never order from this place.

quality is change and its no more good as when they open they restaurant. i am not going there anymore and food was cheap in quality and i waited 40 minutes then they start preparing my food when i ask them after 40 minutes.

Your samosa veggie isnt good at all blasah

Vada pav is very spicy.

Samosa chat that i ordered was very stale. Because of this bad experience i will refrain from visiting this place.

Good vegetarian snacks option. Dabeli is very good. Manchurian is just average. I find it a bit expensive.

One of the best dahi papdi and Schezwan Manchuria I have ever eaten. Its a very cozy dine in with authentic spicy Indian taste. I would recommend it for everyone

Pathetic customer service. We were a regular customer over here where we always have veg cheese pizza in our order. Yesterday we order that and whoever the server was, very rude, didn t care about customers at all kept on arguing with no basis. I had ordered the pizza and the pizza was very chewy, very very little sauce, the cheese had a little foul smell and the cheese was not cooked as well. When we called in to complain she kept on blaming us . Despite informing her that I am kitchen supervisor at Boston pizza she kept on arguing. No refund no replacement. We had to throw the pizza. None of the employees wants to take responsibility nor they have to the courtesy to be polite. Feels like they are doing a favour on us by providing the food and then noting down a complaint. Totally disgusted and astonished by the service they have provided.

Samosa Pav, vada pav and debeli are too good, one of the best, we loved the veg manchurian balls too

Expensive and have to wait long hours to get the food

The food is very delicious plus the staff is very good.

Less quality, hiked prices and garbage service

Worst place to have Indian food. Ordered through UberEATS today, the Shahi Paneer was sour as if it was made days before. The Raita was smelling very bad and the taste was disgusting. The Paneer Chilli Manchurian was not bad but the butter naans were the frozen ones bought from the market and then served. The paneer pulao was not good at all.

The staff here is uncorteous and unhygienic food

Untrained staff and bad food=Bombay bites

Stale samosa chaat not worth it

If possible, I would not even give them this 1 star. Worst food I had, ordered pani puri, aloo tikki chaat, dahi batata puri, veg manchurian, mumbai hakka noodles and rajwadi lassi. Nothing was good. A big NO to this place. Please avoid at any cost. Thanks. Update :: I rarely put reviews on google but when it is really a bad experience then I can not resist. In response to my review, the owner commented that there might be issues with my taste buds. Yes, I admit there are issues with my taste buds that they love only quality food which your food was miles away from. And I was not the one, we were three friends and none of us liked the food. Also, I saw reviews and in the previous three days of our visit there were only 1 star reviews for this place. To the owner:: Come on buddy, grow up and get a life. Learn to accept and try to focus on improving based on customer s feedback rather than arguing with customers. Your argumentative responses to other negative reviews of your food shows nothing but baseless arrogance filled in your mind.

Amazing food love it. Thank you so much

Vada paw and Manchurian is so good.

Authentic taste of india.

Mawa lassi and Faluda - 0 rating, dont waste money service 0

Worst place a person can visit

Awesome food

Not recommended.

Too much of price

Food was not fresh

Rudely took order on call with worst language.

Horrible experience! Food was stale and their signature vadapav was a total disaster. They charge you extra for no reason

Staff not trained. Worst customer service! I was placing a pick up order on phone and they were just increasing the time of preparing it. Will recommend never.

Nice clean 100% pure vegetarian restaurant. Friendly staff and delicious food. It s worth trying if you like Indian Street Food.

Pizza is must try... Good Indian Street food

Wow, I liked the food there. Absolutely real taste of India. Staffs are also nice. Will visit soon again. Thank you @bombay bites

Worst place ever. They did not have more then half of the menu to be served. We asked for panipuri, chaats, Pav Bhaji, they did not have anything. We order misal pav that was just with red water mixed with lots of oil. The only thing that was good - vadapav.

I wish I could have given 0 stars. Ridiculous service !! I placed an order on uber eats and then , the store lady is calling me up and saying if i even want the order , please can you speak in hindi ??? !! Like seriously?? She said why would you order during our closing time ??? She kept on saying that I have to go home .. i have my home owner .. i have to close the store !!! I don t understand if you can t serve your customers at the first place why do you even have this store open !! The store manager must check on these people before hiring them , if they are capable to handle closing shifts!!

Unprofessional staf!!!delayed service!!! After placing uber order, the lady called up saying do you want food or not? Why would you order food at closing time? My question is, why did you accept my order at closing time? There are so many other restaurants that can serve better quality food with amazing customer service. Wish there was an option of negative rating for google reviews.....frankly, they dont even deserve 1 star. Pretty sure the 4 ans 5 star ratings are fake!!!

I had the worst experience ever no-one wants to get customers here they have a really bad reputation from my friends but I thought give it a try myself as well but persist with the bad customer service and no serving etiquettes

I have been there a week ago and we tried to order many things . Starting with vada pav , it wasn t excellent but good .many things were not available. After that I asked for misal pav . I got so much oil and tari( liquid masala in Gujarati raso and Chavanu) I would appreciate if they said they didn t have misal pav as well . I wish I could take photo of it to show here.

Must visit this place in case you like to have a nostalgic taste of sandwiches in Mumbai. Cleanliness could be improved a bit.

Tried Pav bhaji - average Bhel poori - average Momos - avoid at all cost

Worst experience!

Not good at all.

Hada vadapav today, vadapav werent fresh it was like 2 day old & vada were hard not soft. Also had khasta kachori , that didnt had proper taste & feels like 2-3 day old.

Tasty and Spicy vada pay.

Worst pani poori had in my life .worst service ..

The taste is not satisfactory enough. Just ordered one plate of Veg Manchuria and the sauce was tooo much like way too much than the regular and can only taste the sauce nothing else. I didn t try anything else here apart from this Veg Manchuria.

Served Reheated food

Cleanliness - zero Customer Service - zero Food okay Vibes - zero Communication - zero When we order food they say: Ye banne me bhut time lagega order something else. Timestamp: 3rd July Afternoon

No cleanliness and lack of customer service skills. DISGUSTING FOOD - do not waste your time here. This place needs to shut down The customers coming here also are like the dirty restaurant. Garbage thrown outside the restaurant

Not properly managed as well as they dont even give proper time when we ask about our order. Need to focus on cleaning.

Food tastes great, similar to street food of India.

The worst food I ve had in Canada the past 3 years. 1. Cockroach in my table. 2. Paani Puri water - taken straight from fridge and served. Aloo spoiled. 3. Vada Pav - Frozen ones were simply reheated. Pav wasn t even cooked. The reviews you see are probably fake.

Really bad quality food. The chaat papri smells rancid, and rotten, like it was made with something that expired. The noodle was watery, and had no flavour. Pretty much what you get in a noodle cup, boiled.

I have order vada pav but vada was so stale. I would not prefer to go there.

Snacks were well prepared. A bit pricey

Food is not good and so expansive never go over ther

Ordered pav bhaji, bhel puri and paneer makhani pizza and ended up at almost 40$ But i would say it is not worth the price. The bhel puri flavours are not enough and pav bhaji is average.

Horrible food, didn t feel fresh at all. I thought to order through Uber, but I thought it s close by let s go and grab and help small business so decided to call in and order over the phone but when picked up order and realized I ended up paying more in store than uber. Greedy store with no ethics, they just want to mint money right now rather than building customers.

The taste wasn t the one I was expecting but not too bad

I ordered masala maggie, irony is that it doesnt have any masala. I felt i am eating boiled noodles with some veggies. Totally wastage of $7.90

Over priced

Tried their Vada Pav and cutting chai combo as a takeout. Vada Pav comes in a burger bun. It was tasty but quite spicy. Although Cutting chai could have been better.

though the food prices were decent, the food itself wasn t worth the money and the drinks were way overpriced. we ordered pani puri, bhel puri, pan bhaji, and aloo tiki chaat. the tiki chaat tasted as if something had gone bad, and the bhel puri wasn t very good. the pan bhaji was cold. lassi was almost $7 for a small/medium cup. we didn t finish most of the food. also inside was super hot and a bit dirty but i ve never been to other establishments in the area so i don t know what s normally the case but from my experiences with other strip mall locations it fell short of expectations

Best place to eat Indian street food The staff is very friendly and polite Thank you for your excellent customer service

Great vegetarian chaat stand. Their Chinese bhel is simply amazing. Good: Staff friendliness Food taste Food portion Delivery time Need improvement Cutlery Cleanliness Price I dont think they are making the food their. Just reheating. Reducing one star because too much price increase. Had to pay 80 bucks for 5 ppl food. But then prices are increasing everywhere.

Good food, nice service, lovely people. Its a small joint for dining in, but the taste was very nice. Ordered pani puri, samosa chat, cheese grilled sandwich and a masala chai. Economical too Vegetarian options: Its a pure veg joint which is rare in GTA. Parking: Lots of parking in the plaza Kid-friendliness: My 7 year old liked the food

Tried masala cheese chilly sandwich, paneer makhni pizza, dahi poori today. The food is really good lot of street food options are available over here waiting time is reasonable.. customer service is appreciable They need to change the prices on the menu. When you order the prices are different on the menu online then what we pay inside

Worse place and worse food. No respect for customers, showing attitude towards customers. We asked tea, she took order and after we told that it was too spicy for childern . She did not give any reply and told that put it in the garbage and she charged. Then she told that no tea. After that both she and another worker talked and laughed in thier mother tongues about us. They do not know how to treat customers and they seem so rude.

Dont order after 10 pm!!!! They wont be able to make it.. what a great service!!!!!!

Sandwich was grilled but cold. Maybe they have a grill machine that grills without heat?

Small place for good Chaat food. Butter Vada Pav is amazing. Must try. Masala Chai is really thick and good. Loved it. This place can get busy but the service was good. Vegetarian options: Only vegetarian options available Parking: Since this place is located in a plaza, it has a good amount of parking spots.

Not so much friendly and rude staff! They dont even give water to the customer upon being asked. Food is not much of taste, I got chilly seeds in my rose lassi.

I tried their grilled sandwich, their presentation is zero and you can get better sandwich in less price from somewhere else. Very disappointing charged almost $10 for very small sandwich plus not much filling inside.

Wish there was an option for zero stars . Ordered Manchurian which was so hard and tasteless , pav bhaaji was completely lacking flavour just felt like eating mashed potato and peas , also got noodles which were way to spicy and undercooked . Spent around $40 for the food that ended up in bin and made me sick . Please never eat their food . They are completely unprofessional

Ordered samosa pao.. horrible taste. Never ever order from here. I had to spit it out the taste was that bad

Food quality is not the same since the pandemic. The samosas doesnt have the same taste or filling anymore.

Worst food ever had

No star at all, we ordered rasmalai, which was so bad that we have to throw in bin , taste was very very bad

Not that great
