    i took my mother out for christmas dinner. we were promptly greeted and shown the way to the host stand before we even reached the stairs to the front door. there, the host was smiling and extra polite. the table was set to perfection. the whole team serving us were all spectacular- happy, friendly, knowledgeable. schuyler (sorry if the spelling is wrong) seemed very attentive to every question we had about the menu, he was definitely familiar with all details of the food. lauren came by our table a few times to make sure everything was spot on. she seemed happy to be helping out with everything- delivering some of our food, topping up our sparkling water. overall she seemed to go beyond expectations- even for the other tables around us. as for the food- my mother couldn’t stop complimenting the zucchini fritti appetizer. she had the market fish for her entree. she enjoyed every last bite (i got one bite as well, it was prepared and cooked wonderfully). i ordered the filet, rare plus. the temperature was great. i enjoyed the thinly sliced fennel, it paired well with it. we ordered broccolini as a side dish, and it was delightful- it had a hint of spice. desserts were divine. everything was an absolute pleasure, especially the staff. my one and only complaint was that the tables weren’t spaced apart that much. but we made friends with the lovely ladies dining next to us. i would highly recommend this place. the food and the entire staff made our experience top notch, and i look forward to returning.

    We went for lunch on Christmas Day. Their Christmas day menu was fantastic. All the food was delicious. We appreciated the extras such as the little charcuterie board and the bread. The staff was friendly and treated us very well. I only wish that they didn’t automatically add a tip to the check especially since there were just two of us.

    We love Bombay Club. It's a hidden gem, a quiet spot away from the craziness of the Quarter. The atmosphere, ambiance, food and drinks are worth seeking it out! The food as always was wonderful and at happy hour we couldn't have asked for better priced craft cocktails!
