Curry Express

My husband and i went there about a week ago, i cannot tell you how disappointed i was, the food was discusting, and the owners wife was so obnoxious to us that we got up, threw a few quarters on the table and left! Part of the food was under cooked the other part over cooked. Will not ever return there!

This is by far one of the better places to eat in Montana. Expect bright ethnic flavors with just the right amount of a spicy kick. Easily the best Indian restaurant in the state. The only thing this business is missing is a Bozeman location.

I’m so happy to see an Indian restaurant that delivers to Bozeman. I thought the food was great & the driver was very friendly. The spice level was on point! I just moved here from DC and this place is a welcome sign to us.
FYI, don’t order food from the next town over and expect it to be piping hot when it gets here. They don’t cook it in the car so if your understanding then you’ll love this place. If you want their naan steaming hot, do the place a favor and go there to eat it.

One i do not like to be lied to.
I am not rating the other food because i didnt buy anything except gulab jamun.
My hisband called and ask if they had fresh gulab jamun n she said yes. Then when i got there, it was pretty expensive plus freezer cold and i have eaten enough gulab jamun to know that it comes from a can n not made from scratch. So i called and ask her and she said they make it n freeze it. Bullshit! I dont see why people just cant be honest. I work hard for my money and don’t appreciate having to spend it on things that i have to throw away.

Wow! This is some good stuff! So much flavor! I can’t believe I waited this long to try it. I ordered the garlic naan and Malabaar Murgh… scrumptious

Curry Express became my favorite resaurant the first time I tried it! They always have excellent vegetarian options, never boring like some places who think vegetarians apparently like bland food! They recently expanded their menu to include made to order options and although I love their quick buffet this takes Curry Express to another level.

Ok this place surprised us. We had the tandoori chicken and it was amazing!
Hole in the wall thumbs up for us!

Excellent fast serve indian food. It was spicy the way i like and tasteful ! Reasonably priced with multiple options

Worst food ever. We ordered samosas which are like deep fired more than 5 times. Full of oil floating like a river. For the oil to flow like that they might have fried it for days and kept back in freezer. The veg combo is like a epic of crap and for chicken curries chicken is like rubber sole i am sure even bear finds it hard to chew. I am very sorry for the harsh words.

Coming from CA I feel like I have tried some amazing Indian fare. Curry Express is not incredible but it is really good. I enjoy the butter paneer masala as well as the paneer and peas. They don’t always have the same stuff but if the owner is in he can sometimes make what is not already out for the day. The staff is always friendly and the price is fair. For fast food Indian I really couldn’t be more happy.

What a disappointment! $ 9.00 got me a huge pile of flavorless «yellow» (saffron) rice, two pitiful scoops of vegetable korma, and a single piece of garlic naan (which was pretty good but, at $ 3 per piece, ridiculously overpriced). Two-​thirds of the items on offer were unlabeled (and mostly unrecognizable), and the employees were unable to answer the most basic questions about the food. («What is that?» «Spicy chicken curry.» «What kind of curry?» «Spicy.») They bill themselves as authentic Indian cuisine, but it’s a joke, and a sad one. I can make better than this at home.

Super fresh and tasty Indian food! They cook their own naan now and it is excellent. Will be going to the mall location often.

Horrible service, the delivery driver is ALWAYS ‘out today’ no matter what day I call. The restaurant itself is comprised of old moldy booths decorated whatever happened to look indian at the thrift store. The people who work here always seem to only half know what they’re doing, which is scary when ordering for those with allergies. The only reason I gave a second star is that the food isn’t half bad if its not dried out

Place is very authentic. Super fast service and really cheap lunch special. There is limited seating but don’t let that stop you from enjoying some excellent curry. Not sure what you like then just ask for a sample and they will be more than happy to let you try it out.

I am a huge fan of indian food and seek it out when traveling, so I was very excited to get an indian restaurant near home. I was very disappointed on many levels.
The restaurant wasn’t clean. The floor felt slippery like there was oil or grease on it, and I had to wipe off the table.
The food wasn’t good. I don’t know where these 4 & 5 star ratings are coming from. Perhaps they are just very inconsistent as the other reviews claim to know good indian. The food was served cafeteria style under heat lamps. As in another review, the naan tasted like it was heated in a microwave. It was very rubbery and lacking flavor. I ordered the butter chicken and some kind of curry. The flavor was bland. My wife and a friend of ours ordered the shrimp. It was overcooked and shriveled.
The food is served on paper plates with plastic flat-​ware. I could live with this if the food was good and the restaurant clean.
The final straw was that they started to clean something, I assume the grill, while we were in there. It was awful, the stench forced us out. What’s worse, we could still smell it on our jackets and in our hair the next day.
I wanted to like this place, but it just wasn’t good. I had thought about giving it a second chance, but our first experience was so bad, we haven’t been back.

Heard about this little gem from a bartender in Bozeman. He exclaimed how great it was and that all the local chefs absolutely love it. Could barely wait to try it the next afternoon for lunch–
I was lucky enough to be raised with Indian food mixed into my diet because my mother worked for an Indian… once you get bit by the curry bug… There’s no help for you! So I absolutely CRAVE Indian food.
The lunch was amazing. Plenty to choose from and all very fresh. The owner was behind the counter and took special care of my entourage that I brought along who were also very excited! The seating is a bit limited, but it wasn’t a problem for us. The value for the incredible meal– very fair.
This establishment is now on my favorite list for the Bozeman area and I will now make special trips thru Belgrade to enjoy it!

Friendly staff to explain what everything is and a express style service where you can order small portions of lots of different items. Get the garlic naan… It’s great! I had the vegetarian Paneer dish.
Finally some variety in Montana!

Review based on two dine-​in lunches and one takeout dinner.
The food itself gets 4 stars for being quite delicious, and for being the only South Asian food available in this area (if not the state.) The mango and rose lassis are really good. The owners are very nice, and seem to genuinely care about their customers’ experience. A couple of things do detract from the overall experience, however.
The temperature of the food isn’t what you’d call «piping hot,» even if it’s eaten right off the steam table. So by the time a carryout order gets home, the aluminum TV dinner-​type container has sucked out whatever heat was in the food to begin with. So I ask you Mr. Restaurateur, how do you expect your customer to reheat it, if he can’t put a metal tray in the microwave? And you must be aware that using metal cutlery in a metal TV dinner tray always gives the food a metallic taste — which is a shame because, as I said, your food is yummy.
It was hard to believe the soggy, microwaved lump of dough wrapped in aluminum foil with our takeout order was the same naan as the warm, crispy deliciousness we had in the store. Seriously, a clue needs to be had on choosing appropriate food service containers.
I’d usually deduct another star for the establishment not being totally sparkling clean, but will give them a chance to get things on track because the food is, again, rather delicious. To the owners: if you’re going with the open kitchen concept, where everything’s visible to your guests from the front of the store, you should probably not let the kitchen floor go unswept for very long. Also, if your guests need to look through a pane of glass to choose their food from the steam table, that glass should always be spotlessly clean.

Have had Indian food many, many places across the country and was very excited to learn Montana had an Indian place to try, and near us!
However, our experience was mediocre at best. Food was not hot, barely warm. The naan was so rubbery, we could hardly chew it. The spice flavors were «off», and unlike any other I’ve tried.
Interesting concept, but sadly we won’t be going back…
We’re still in DIRE need of a sit down, full-​service, traditional Indian Food place in this state. Think Bozeman would be an ideal location :)

Just go.
Go and eat until you have to unbutton your pants.
Go and know the deliciousness that is cheap Indian food.
This is the ONLY Indian restaurant in the greater Bozeman area, thankfully it is a good one. The staff were all very friendly, despite being busy they kept things moving at a good pace. I’m very hopeful that they’ll be successful enough to open a location closer to my house but until then I’m happy to commute for their yummy food.
