There’s a slew of trendy restaurants trying to take advantage of the up-and-coming vibe in Toronto’s Junction area, but North of Bombay is not one of them. Just the opposite: brothers Amar and Gurdeep Singh brought a little culture and caché to the Junction long before it was the cool place to be. North of Bombay began as Piccadily in 1989 when a name with a British-sounding flair seemed more palatable to the local clientele. “We were the first Indian food a lot of our customers had ever tried,” Amar recalls. “At first they tried milder, sweeter dishes like the butter chicken. All these years later, they have developed their palates to include much more spice and heat.”
As the Junction continues to gentrify, many older residents move to quieter, more removed areas, however, many of them return to North of Bombay as part of their family tradition. One family who had been weekly regulars, and now live in Milton, come back every Mother’s Day and for family celebrations. For them, North of Bombay defines the neighbourhood where their family grew up.

Love this place. Veggie or non-veggie both are finger licking good. Freshly cooked as per your taste. Food & service both are excellent. Nice and clean family place. Keep it up Guys.
We have been going to this place for many years and it has always been great food. We have never experienced anything but great service and enjoy the atmosphere. From the other reviews it looks like the delivery service can be lacking but we usually eat in. For the occasional times we have picked up food for take out it has always been on time.
Honestly, it was a great experience always. all my guests enjoyed very much. I would recomend everyone.

I'm so suprised when somebody compair their dishes with some worst places. I have been patern to this restauant for 15 Years and never ever had any complaint but what I find is the food is superb CAN'T even thinkof compairing with other restaurants. I have tried many different places but I'm always satisfied here. I would strongly recomend everyone to give a try If you havn't.
