Book NowAbout Oye Bombay
Tucked into Harrington Square, Oye Bombay brings genuine Mumbaiya energy to Altona with generous regional cooking and warm hospitality. The room fills quickly with groups unwinding over combination thali platters—crowded with multiple curries, fresh naan, crunchy snacks, raita, and dessert. Curries dodge predictable sweetness, led by a butter chicken infused with charcoal smoke and heat dialed to personal preference. Spiced sizzlers arrive crackling from the tandoor, while warm gulab jamun rounds out the table.
- Generous Thali Platters: Loaded combination platters assemble curries, samosas, fresh breads, raita, salad, and dessert into complete feasts.
- Charcoal-Smoked Butter Chicken: Tender tandoor chicken finished with distinct charcoal smoke instead of generic sugary tomato cream.
- Custom & Off-Menu Cooking: Chefs willingly accommodate special off-menu dishes alongside custom spice levels for dietary needs.
