About us

The spice road in Old Montreal

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!

Service was attentive, polite, & friendly.
Decor was minimal but pleasant.
& the food was great!

The papadam they bring out for everyone, & the chutneys that came with, may be the best I've ever had.
The mattar paneer & lamb biryani were delicious.
The only minus was they may have given us plain Naan rather that they garlic we wanted, but it was very good nonetheless, fresh from the oven.

You know how sometimes you eat a restaurant while traveling & then dream about going back? This is the place. We were here seven years ago, & have been dreaming about coming back since. We went out of our way to travel here again, & were not disappointed in the least!
The food is phenomenal. We had the fish masala & the Chicken Tandoori this time. Both were outstanding.
The restaurant is comfortable & clean.
I hope we won't have to wait another seven years to come again!

The place was excellent, spotless, & had amazing food, but what I loved the most was the service. It was one of the best I've ever had here in Canada, not just from one person but especially from Faruk Ahmed, who was the last person that helped me. I had such a great experience at this place.

If you plan to visit Gandhi, make sure you have a lot of patience - especially on weekends. Waiting for food can easily take up to an hour, so be prepared.

Now coming to the food, the portion sizes are quite small compared to the price. Whether it's a veg or non-veg curry, it's barely enough for one person. We tried Shahi Paneer, Madras Chicken, Chana Masala, & Chicken Biryani.

Taste-wise, the best dish was definitely the Chicken Biryani - flavorful, spicy, & satisfying for someone who enjoys authentic Indian spice levels. The Madras Chicken was also decent. However, both vegetarian curries were below average. Especially the Chana Masala - the way they prepare it, it feels more like something that should be served as an appetizer, not a main course. The Shahi Paneer also had a slight sourness that didn't taste right.

As for the breads, the Tandoori Roti turned hard like papad within minutes, but the Naan was soft & good.

I understand it's a fine-dine restaurant in downtown Montreal, but honestly, the price doesn't justify the quantity or the quality. They really need to work on their flavors & consistency.
