2gingers

first time diners!. first time dinning at bombay grill but we will be back. great family atmosphere and great service.

one of the best indian restaurants in sc. authentic north and south indian dishes. the indian food in charlotte does not hold a candle to the rich flavors of bombay grill, now 2gingers. i brought a friend from kerala, and she really appreciated the south indian dishes -- she said it tastes like home cooking.

i don't care for chicken, so my standout entrees are lamb roganjosh, goat vindaloo, and goat biryani.

as of now the best in columbia. i have been there many times, it is the restaurant in columbia which is the topper in the indian category, because there are not many in columbia which are this good. the food is most of the times very good and authentic. service is also good, joseph alexander is good at what he does.

avoid it. this used to be one of the best food in town but under new management it seems it started to loosing its charm. food is not tasty at all , sometimes not properly cooked and made.

didn't like it. the food quality is nowhere compared to bombay grill. the service is very disappointing. it's sad as it used to be the best indian restaurant in the town.

authentic i guess. since half the patrons were indian, i have to assume this is pretty authentic. it was lunch buffet, so i can't say much about the menu (i've heard good things about the khadai ginger chicken and the kashmiri naan, but i didn't get to enjoy them).
moderate amount of options on the line, but i would have liked to have seen another meat option besides chicken. the flavors were mostly excellent, but i've had better tiki masala. despite brisk business, the chicken in all three sauces was slightly overcooked, like it had been sitting in a warmer a while. i very much enjoyed the coriander chicken and the other non-tandoor one (can't remember the name, but i had 3 helpings). the other mushroom dishes were also fine, and i liked the little potato dumpling thing. the plain naan was good but not great, although the mint puree on it was delicious.
unfortunately, a little flaw in the execution, as i found 2 different very hard pieces of some sort of vegetable which was uncooked, one of which tore up my throat when i accidentally swallowed it. now, my stomach is disliking that and the rich spicy food, but i think it was worth it.
overall, a fine meal and one i plan to go back to try again at night despite the flaws.

very good indian food restaurant and nice tasty food for indian food at columbia, sc. one of the best indian food in columbia area. the food taste really good especially dosai, sambhar and chutney. the buffet has lot of variety and they give you dosai other than a buffet. amazing. it is a nice locality . great service personnel are sangita and mahesh. we cannot forget the other people who cook and make a difference also especially the chefs. really enjoyed the friday night dinner (5/23/2014) and again saturday lunch buffet (5/24/2014) and again on monday lunch (5/26/2014). i went continuously on three occasion which is rare since i am too picky or fussy they say here!!:) but i really loved it. great place to visit indian food. they have lot of varieties also. even though it looks like vegetarian-they do serve non-vegetarian i did see some items, but i am good at what are those!:!)

loved, loved, loved this place. the food was excellent and authentic. we went for an early dinner and it was quiet. the staff was helpful and nice. the chicken tikka masala was wonderful as was the garlic naan.

the place lost its charm , food was good in the beginning and buffet was great, but now the food is bland and not that great indian place in the town

delicious food on the buffet. the taste is varied, hot, and fresh. i highly recommend. also many good vegetarian dishes. the rice and mango puddings are tasty as well.

ended up at 2 gingers on a monday evening to satisfy the indian taste buds. the staff was extremely friendly and kind.
to begin with, had mango lassi which was somewhat a mango smoothie with added sugar.
they served complementary papad with mint chutney, tamarind chutney and circa pyaz.
next we ordered bhel puri (spice level 3/6). it was somewhat sweeter than it should have been but lemon to the rescue!
for the main course we had shrimp biryani (spice level 2/6) which was nice. the raita served alongwith was really well done.
chana masala (spice 3/6) was sweet and disappointing.
lamb boti masala (spice 4/6), sweet again but ok.
chettinad chicken (spice 4/6) nice, in fact nicest of all. ordered the 2 ginger special naan (minus the cheese).

can definitely visit again but wouldn't be my first choice though.

good food. we ordered dosa. it was very nice and crispy with sambhar and chutneys.

we also ordered malai kabab. those were good too. good service.

good food ...
truly indian biryani ...
can find gujarati taste in food and even in non-vegetarian dishes ...
inexpensive drinks ...
staff was truly asian ... (hospitality)
good place to be at ...

amazing! i have been to several indian restaurants in sc & ga, this place is the best indian food i have had! very authentic!! i highly recommend trying it! they will adjust the spice level for those who don't like it spicy.

i've never written a review on zomato before, but when i saw the negative review below, i had to defend my favorite indian food in columbia!  we ate there tonight (10/15/15) for the fifth time since we moved here from atlanta in june.
the food is phenomenal and the portions are generous.  the 2 gingers special kofta is incredibly delicious - we've had it four out of five times.  i've also tried several of their appetizers and meat dishes - each was delicious.  i could eat the chicken mahkani (aka butter chicken) like a stew.  my father-in-law also spoke highly of the lunch buffet.
service was a bit dicey on our first visit, but the restaurant was packed and i understand that there was a special coupon expiring soon. since then, our service has been impeccable.  we plan to return on a thursday soon for dosa night!
