Been eating here for over 20 years - special family occasions,'Daddy daughter' dates - Ghandhi has been a consistently excellent experience balancing old Montreal charm, professional service & attention to detail with a wide range of Indian dishes. Don't miss out - give Ghandhi a try! You won't be disappointed.
We loved our meal & the ambience at this Indian restaurant we decided to have dinner at, in downtown Montreal! The restaurant filled up really fast, but because we arrived early, managed to get a table without a reservation. We had flown in from California & our son from England to be in Montreal, & this was a perfect place to enjoy a conversation. The wait staff was very attentive, the food & wine was excellent, & the decor & table settings were very appealing to the eye. I found the tandoori roti, the daal fry & the palak paneer to be delicious, & the chicken dishes (which I don't eat) were enjoyed by others - we found it hard to stop eating actually, so decided not to have dessert :) I'll be recommending this restaurant to all my friends too.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Gandhi Restaurant in Montreal's Old Port, & it was a truly memorable experience-especially since I brought my little cousins along, & it was their first time trying Indian cuisine. The restaurant offers a perfect blend of traditional Indian flavors with the charming atmosphere of the Old Port, making it ideal for both casual dining & special occasions.
From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by an inviting, warm ambiance that made us feel right at home. It felt like the kind of place where you could enjoy a comforting meal or celebrate a special moment, & it definitely added to the overall experience.
I started my meal with a crisp glass of Chardonnay, which was the perfect companion to the rich & aromatic spices that followed. To kick things off, we tried the Papadam-an irresistible, crispy lentil wafer served with three vibrant sauces: mint, tamarind, & mango chutney. Each sauce offered a unique balance of tangy sweetness that elevated the papadam, making it a delightful palate cleanser that melted in my mouth with every bite.
For appetizers, I went with a selection of traditional favorites, & each dish was nothing short of fantastic. The Chicken Tikka was tender, with a smoky, roasted flavor, & the marinated chicken was seasoned to perfection. The Onion Bhajee, fried in Indian butter, was crispy & rich, with just the right touch of sweetness from the onions. The Samosa had a flavorful vegetable filling, & the Pakora-seasoned vegetable fritters-was crunchy on the outside & soft on the inside, with a well-balanced spice profile.
When it came time for the main course, I decided to let the waiter surprise me with a variety of dishes to truly experience the diversity of Indian cuisine. The Mixed Vegetable Bhajee was a refreshing, light vegetarian dish with a wonderful combination of fresh vegetables & a perfect mix of spices. The Chicken Tikka Masala, a classic favorite, was comforting & creamy, with perfectly cooked chicken bathed in a rich, flavorful sauce.
However, it was the Shrimp Bhuna & Lamb Dhansak that truly left an impression. The Shrimp Bhuna had a subtle, yet satisfying heat, with shrimp cooked to perfection in a rich curry sauce full of layers of flavor. But the Lamb Dhansak… wow. That dish was the real standout for me. The lamb was so tender it practically melted in my mouth, & the curry itself had a perfect balance of sweetness & tanginess, with lentils & spices providing depth without overwhelming the palate.
What made this experience even more special was seeing my cousins-who were trying Indian food for the first time-so excited by the new flavors. Gandhi Restaurant not only gave us a chance to explore incredible dishes, but it also made us feel like we were sharing something truly special together.
Overall, Gandhi Restaurant delivers an exceptional dining experience, with high-quality food, attentive service, & authentic flavors. The balance of heat, sweetness, & richness in every dish is remarkable. Whether you're a seasoned lover of Indian cuisine or someone new to it (like my cousins), this restaurant offers a fantastic opportunity to dive into the vibrant world of Indian food in such an inviting setting.
Stay tuned for my video review on TikTok (@Foxy.appetite) & Instagram (@Foxyappetite)!
Excellent food & service. Higher prices than one is accustomed to paying for Indian food in Montreal but quality of ingredients is higher so food is refined & relatively light... Vegetarian dishes are delicious. Highly recommend the bhindi bhaji which is bright green & lightly cooked (not deep fried or oily). Shrimp dhansak was also very tasty.
I love this restaurant! My husband & I first came here on the recommendation of a neighbor, & now we eat here regularly. I can only speak to the vegetarian dishes, because that's what I mainly eat, but the vegetables are always fresh & perfectly seasoned. The sauces are delicious without being heavy. The service is excellent, & we are always greeted like old friends.
This is one of my favorite spots to visit for lunch or dinner when I am in Montreal. It is such a pleasant little restaurant, with windows along the front & one side of the building, sunny, pleasant, clean, relaxing & friendly! The staff are so pleasant & helpful & quick to help you get your food selected & ordered, but best of all the aroma of all the wonderful, fresh, delicious spicy or mild food dishes wakes up your appetite in anticipation of tasting your order! It is so pleasant & relaxing to sit down here & slowly, peacefully enjoy a delicious meal! The desserts are amazing as are the drinks & lassie yogurt drinks. As well, the location near the Old Port of Montreal is so wonderful I always love to visit the Gandhi Restaurant. If you have a chance to visit & love authentic Indian Food I very highly recommend that you give it a try you won't be disappointed. Anthony
Majority of the reviews has one thing in common - Food lacks flavour, spices & salt in the dishes .Disappointing to see that the issue still persists & restaurant doesn't seem to have made any changes in the kitchen. Your restaurant lies in the centre of Montreal, only way to win the customers is by the flavours !!!
