For administrative reasons, Restaurant Gandhi will no longer serve wines and alcoholic beers. However, we are pleased to continue offering a selection of non-alcoholic wines and beers for your enjoyment.
Thank you for your understanding and your loyalty.
Step into Restaurant Gandhi and the cobblestone streets of Old Montreal give way to the fragrant spices and the aromatic flavours of the Asian subcontinent. Traditional Indian music plays as you dine, providing a gentle serenade to accompany your meal.
Unlike most indian restaurants, you will feel like you're dining al fresco: soft light, bistro-style tables with crisp white lines, and the yellow walls with their window-like cubby holes recall a sunset over the Ganges half a world away. Gandhi engages all five senses to create a memorable dining experience. For those who prefer a take out, our team will be please to prepare your meal with the same touch of love!
Gandhi offers a warm, inviting Indian dining experience with aromatic, well-balanced dishes that showcase generous portions of tandoori specialties, butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, and biryani. The naan, especially garlic naan, is often praised as outstanding, with papadam and chutneys as a memorable start. The service is consistently attentive and friendly, with staff going the extra mile to ensure guests feel at home. The ambiance ranges from a calm, refined Old Montreal setting to a cozy, bustling vibe, with tasteful decor and comfortable linens. The vegetarian options are plentiful and delicious, and halal choices are noted. Some comments mention value for money and occasional longer waits during peak hours, but the overall sentiment highlights bold flavors, authenticity, and care in presentation. Frequent visitors describe Gandhi as a reliable favorite for family meals, celebrations, and casual dinners alike, with butter chicken and richly spiced curries inviting repeat visits.
A wonderful break from French food. Plenty of mild dishes using familiar proteins. Recommend the thali, a sampler that includes appetizer & dessert for reasonable price. Dessert was beautiful & tasty.

Lovely service & food that was a cut above the usual fare. Quiet & comfortable for a nice dinner in the warm lemon yellow space. Perfect after a day of sightseeing- enjoy
We're seated promptly & the staff were very attentive. The samosas & cheese naan were the family favorites. I'll be going back on my next visit to Montreal!
When in Montreal, we always make a trip to this restaurant. The food is great & service very friendly. Most recently, my wife & I returned with my mother & father in law, & the evening was terrific. My go to dish is often the Pathia, & whilst I kept with my tradition, we added the Plat Gandhi, Tikka Masala & Korma to our repertoire. The Peshawari naan is delish, as is the Garlic naan. Go & enjoy this place & its hospitality!!!

L'endroit est immaculé & le service est hors de ce monde. Le personnel était attentionné & nous n'avons jamais manqué de rien. Je ne croyais pas cela possible en 2024, en toute honnêteté ce restaurant a été notre coup de coeur gastronomique. Une magnifique expérience immersive & savoureuse en tout point. Nous le recommandons sans hésitation.

Superbe expérience entres amis dans ce restaurant bien situé au vieux port de Montréal. J'ai commandé l'agneau korma avec une entré de samosas. Les deux plats étaient incroyables. Portions généreuses & saveurs très présentes. Je recommande cet endroit à quiconque qui souhaite partager un bon moment avec ses proches. 10/10 j'ai adoré !!
