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.
Le restaurant existe depuis longtemps mais nous n'y étions pas retournés depuis la pandémie. Nous sommes vraiment heureux de l'avoir retrouvé tel quel.
Le seul bémol: le français, pour tant langue commune au Québec est à peu près inexistant parmi le personnel.:-(
Visiting Ghandi was a memorable experience. Our party of 4 was expertly guided through the menu & all the dishes were delicious. Tandoori chicken, lamb passander, vegetable biryani, okra, & garlic naan. The flavours were distinct & beautifully balanced. The service was attentive without being too much & the atmosphere relaxed & welcoming.
A gem in the heart of old Montreal & a welcome change from French bistro fare. Highly recommend!
Super service attentionné, ils ont ajouté avec le sourire une table pour des amis qui s'étaient ajoutés à notre groupe. Nourriture délicieuse comme à chaque fois!
Was our first time visiting Montreal. Nice ambiance with a very courteous staff. We never felt rushed being practically the only ones eating at the time.
Plenty of options on the menu with a nice selection of wines. We would definitely recommend eating here.
Service impeccable, belle ambiance, les tables ne sont pas trop rapprochées, nappes & serviettes de table en tissu, blanches!
On mange bien, la nourriture est très bonne & les plats bien présentés. Les vins sont abordables.
bonne nourriture mais pas tout à fait piquante à notre goût. Excellent service. Bonne ambiance. Tables avec nappes en tissu.
Bel espacement entre les tables. Bonne luminosité naturelle avec vue sur les passants de la rue.

Every aspect of our dining experience at Ghandi was wonderful! From the service to the food to the attention from the waiters: everything was excellent.
The best meal we had in old city Montreal! We were impressed with the service & loved all the dishes we ordered including an awesome special dessert. The variety of Indian dishes was extensive & the spice levels were exactly as listed on the menu. Definitely a must visit if you are in old city.
Accueil chaleureux & souci du client. J'avais demandé une table dans un coin tranquille car c'était un repas entre amoureux, Menu varié & nourriture fraîche & tendre, Service impeccable jusqu'à la fin!
