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!

Review Summary

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.

Not an authentic Indian restaurant. The menu card seemed old & probably can be changed.

We had a lovely meal here tonight with our two kids… we were in town to celebrate our 15 year wedding anniversary. We first ate at Gandhi 21 years ago on our 3rd date & the rest is history. Still excellent food & a warm & pleasant atmosphere. ♥?

Nous sommes allés plusieurs fois à ce restaurant & nous n'avons jamais été déçus. La nourriture est excellent & le service attentionné. Pour moi, c'est le meilleur poulet au beurre à Montréal!

We had the best Saag Paneer - like none I had experienced before. Fresh, amazing.
Rice pudding also was above any other in presentation & flavor. Service was impeccable. Thank you!
