Bombay Post does a great job creating the colonial British atmosphere, from the Royal Guard with extra large mustache that greets you at the gate, to the interiors and durban-fashioned waiters that take your order. We ordered Murgh Shahi Rolls, some Mirchi Ki Chaat type dish, a yellow daal tadka, and a Reshmi Kebab type dish (although it was called something else). All in all, the food was solid, although on a few occasions with the reshmi kebab, I did find chicken tendons (why don't people clean their damn chicken here!?). Daal was fantastic as well.
A bit off were the random posters of famous has-been Bollywood and Hollywood actors. I just didn't see how that fit into the overall look and feel of the place.
A bit on the pricey side, but if you're looking for somewhat of an experience or you generally enjoy the settings of Colonial England, this may be your place. I also hear they have a good fresh Pomfret display area where you can go check out fresh Pomfret laying on beds of cold ice, and occasionally, you'll even catch a chef come by to snatch one for a dish :)
