The Bollywood - Qurum Commercial Area

Started by Blue_Chi · 6 months ago

The Bollywood (Telephone: 2456 5653) is a vegetarian Indian restaurant in Qurum Commercial Area right next to CCC. We felt adventurous a couple of weeks ago and decided to give this restaurant a go. The Bollywood has been around for years, it was previously known as Bollywood Chaat, but ... Continue reading »

  • When I was pregnant with the princess, I couldn't stand meat, seafood, chicken, anything that used to breathe. however, I craved spicy food. I ate lunch there every single day.

    THe waitstaff are totally useless at interpreting the menu unless you are a hindi speaking indian vegitarian but there are some real gems. They make these pancake thingies with spinach and cheese that are amazing.

    Pregnant ladies, if you want something really, really, really spicy they can hook a girl up. The all you can eat lunch buffet is not to be missed.

    Nice review guys. Well done.
  • Very Good Review...

    I think you should go back with one of your Indian friends... the experience will be completely different ... I went to Kamat alone ... i almost killed by the food i ordered... then i went with some Indian friends and i couldn't believe how great the food was ..
  • Ew, Bollywood and Kamat are the two places I hate in Muscat. They are simply overrated, and have crap veggie food in their menus. They are doing total disservice to Indian food.

    If you want to relish nice Indian veg food, head over to Woodlands (CBD), Saravana Bhavan (next to Ruwi flyover), Oman Express (Ruwi high street) or Annapoorna, behind Pizza Muscat, MBD.
  • Hmmm...all said and eaten..Bollywood chat is known for the "chaät" & caters to the chaat lovers.Its not always easy to expalin a non-indian what a Chaat is , I won't blame the waiters for that .Chaat is vegeterian but of a very different genre.I feel the place serves one of the best chole bhattures that I have tasted in Gulf. The ambience is nice and food is hygenic . I feel comparison to Mumtaz Mahal is a bit of unjustice to the place!
  • Actually, Kalla Katha is made from tamarind and other sweet fruit. It's of Gujarati origin. I love Kamat better than Bollywood -- at least you have good servers over there. MAy be you should try!
  • This is the most pathetic review ever of an ethnic dining experience. When I go to Automatic the arabic restaurant nobody explains anything to me either about the various dishes, but I enjoy them never the less. Surely it should be well known by now that Indian food is spicy! I wonder why the reviewer went to a vegetarian place when he/she is obviously a meat eater! no wonder the review was so negative. it's not as though the waiters stood over them and forced them to eat up all their vegetables or whatever. Better luck next time and don't go where you are not comfortable.
  • My sister-in-law is prego and she usually loves chicken. Now, she is repulsed by the thought of it. So weird how the human body works.
  • I have been to this place a long time back when it was called Bollywood Chat, but have not been there recently..
  • Hey the Biryani looks delicious, I just love Biryanis and this one is presented well.
    Some of the Indian food is really amazing..
  • I love Indian cuisine and the pictures look great. For travelers going to India, remember that they do not serve beef or pork. Not a piece of cake. But if you like lamb and chicken, you will be in paradise. Also they have fantastic deserts that you do not get abroad and amazing cakes. hmmm.
  • I did the Kala Katta when I was in Mumbai last summer and it is amazing, the first time I did that, and nice to know these guys also sell it.
  • Looks like a place to visit, I am a die hard Bollywood fan will definitely like the place.
