I found myself staring at the interior of the restaurant and it looks so rich and inviting. I found out the people who built most of it is a company called Home Techs Improvement & Design out of West Hartford CT. Great job...I think that eventhough the food and service was ok, the ambiance made my experience more enjoying.

Amy -- Yes, we were also rather cold there. Perhaps they will work on the insulation and heating issue soon. We also felt that it was on par with India Oven -- but truly, I think the use of olive oil does make a difference. The samosas are great! Kate — Thanks for the heads up!

I had the chicken vindaloo and Kyle had the lamb vindaloo. We also ordered the (regular) naan. It was all yummy, but seemed very similar to India Oven. We'll probably continue to frequent India Oven more often because it's closer to our house, I don't really care about "atmosphere" and for some reason Bombay Olive was freezing. There was someone sitting at a booth (maybe an owner or a relative of the owners) and they had their own personal space heater. That should have tipped us off it would be cold in there. :) The service was fine and friendly though. We went for dinner last night. I had the chicken vindaloo and Kyle had the lamb vindaloo.
