Reviews Summary
Bollywood Jewel offers an exciting fusion of Indian and Japanese cuisines, with many diners praising unique dishes like the Tandoori Chicken Sandwich and inventive pizzas. While the flavors are often authentic and delicious, some find the prices to be on the higher side, and the 10% sitting fee can be a point of contention. The restaurant also offers vegan options and a unique robot waiter experience.
"This place has been on my mind for a while now ever since I walked by a couple of months ago. The thought of Indian fusion and the posters out front really sold the food to me. I read some of the reviews and figured it was worth a shot. The atmosphere is modern, the food was excellent, and service was quick. I went with the double tandoori chicken sandwich and an order of the mozzarella naan. Everything was delicious and it was extremely filling. Now some might be bothered by the 10% sitting fee but I just saw that as a tip. Prices are more in line with American pricing, but the food was delicious so I did not mind paying. Definitely would recommend and I look forward to going back to try other menu items."

"They have a comprehensive vegan menu and a cute robot waiter. I tried vegan tikki burger, it came with yummy fries on the side and was exceptionally delicious. The patty is soft and flavourful, the bun is slightly grilled and crispy, the serving is very generous. My only comment would be on the red onion - I wish the slice would have been thinner or they used pickled onion instead. I removed some of my onion because it felt too overpowering. Will definitely come back to try other vegan options in the menu 😋"

"This restaurant was fantastic. I've seen a lot of Indian restaurants in Japan, but this is truly Indian and Japanese/Okinawan fusion. I had the tandoori chicken taco rice which was amazing, and the capicola tikka pizza with Hokkaido mascarpone which was also amazing. Staff was very friendly and restaurant including the washrooms was very clean. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for an interesting fusion restaurant, or just plain great food!
UPDATE: went back again (couldn't stay away)! This time got the white butter chicken pizza; was not as good as the previous one a little bit too rich without anything to cut through the fatty flavors. Would have benefited from something like coriander or lemon for some acidity. I also got the tandoori fried chicken sandwiche, which was honestly one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. The fries were also excellent, very crispy and not at all oily. Overall my review continues to be 5/5 across the board, highly recommend checking it out."
