Bombay Club

Frommer's Review

This second-floor spot overlooking Harvard Square gained fame through its lunch buffet, a generous assortment of some of the best items on the menu. The buffet's reasonable price and the lively scene make midday the best time to dine here. At all times, the food -- a huge selection of typical dishes from across the subcontinent (Bombay fish curry, a lamb specialty from Delhi, numerous vegetarian selections) -- is flavorful and fresh, with yogurt and cheese made in-house daily. The breads, baked to perfection in a traditional charcoal-fired clay oven, and the lamb offerings are especially tasty. The "chef's recommendations," platters of assorted meat or vegetarian dishes, make good samplers if you're new to the cuisine or can't make up your mind. If grazing isn't your thing, Goa tandoori prawn masala, rogan josh (lamb in garlicky tomato sauce), and fiery chicken, lamb, or shrimp vindaloo all merit full portions.
