The other night, while my family was soaking up the sun in Phoenix, Arizona, I had the chance to stop in at the Bombay House Indian Restaurant in Provo Utah!
If you haven’t tried the Bombay House on University Avenue in Provo, YOU MUST! Not only is the food extremely authentic (“…minus a bit of spice” says owner Daniel Shanthakumar, who you’ll always find greeting customers with a happy smile), but it’s clean, very well decorated, and a great price for the quality dining experience.
What to Order Your First Time: Chicken Cocunut Kurma – this boneless chicken cooked with coconut milk, onions, garlic, ginger tomatoes, cashew nuts and spices is TO DIE FOR! In addition to the Cocunut Kurma, you have to get Garlic Naan Bread. My mouth waters…
Timing is everything! My wife and I have been to the Bombay House a few times now and have realized one thing – either call ahead or plan to wait for a bit. During the week isn’t bad at all. But come Friday and Saturday night, the Bombay House in Provo Utah is hopping with customers. It’s well worth the wait though, and the service is very timely once you’re seated. I’ve only taken kids there once. I give it a “Smiley Face” for kid-friendliness, mainly because there’s music playing so children wouldn’t be a big distraction. Because the food is quite authentic, kids may not have the biggest selection so just be aware. Parking can be a bit tight so be prepared for that too.
The Bombay House Indian Restaurant in Provo, Utah is a definite must and one of the “Hidden Treasures in Happy Valley!”
Tell Daniel we recommended it the next time you visit!
El Azteca Mexican Taco Shop is conveniently located right off Bulldog and University Avenue in Provo, Utah. The price is around $7 for a good size meal that’s filling. They have free refills on drinks too! It’s a great place for kids with booth seating to keep things closely knit 
. It’s fairly clean – the salsa area was a bit cluttered but this can be expected. The promptness was probably our favorite thing about El Azteca in Provo. We had barely sat down to wait for our Mexican food and our number was called (probably 5 minutes max). The workers were friendly and seemed happy to be there – which is a plus too.
Let’s point out why Taco Bell in Provo, Utah may not be the best place for fast food (according to the possible manager):
My family and I went there today for “fast food” – 40 minutes later I finally walked out the door with my order or 2 Gorditas, 2 hard shell tacos, 2 Cheese Roll-Ups for the kids, and some Cinnamon Twists. They were lucky I was so dang hungry! Four customers ahead of me ask for refunds because of the devastating delay – three customers came in, saw us all standing there, and left, and one patient man finally received his order after about 45 minutes of waiting – HOLY COW!
