Was a little apprehensive after seeing the google score, but I had heard good things so wanted to try for myself. The owner & staff were extremely accommodating from moment we showed up. I have two young children, one in a stroller who leaves more food on the floor than in her mouth, so we aren't exactly your perfect guests. However, we were warmly welcomed without issue, very family friendly. The restaurant was extremely clean, staff were professional & helpful & the food was delicious. It was a little on the sweet side, however that just made my kids eat more of it, they loved it! We had the butter chicken & tiki masala. We will definitely be back next time were in old montreal!View more

Outstanding Indian food. One of our favorite restaurants in Montreal, we eat here whenever we visit from New York. Some of the best tandoori chicken anywhere, they also do a delicious chicken tikka masala. The cheese naan was also the best we have had. Friendly & attentive staff.View more
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.

Loved the hospitality here & the food of course. I went with my little daughter who wanted to eat in. I didn't buy enough to not be embarrassed to even ask for a table but surprisingly, Farouk, I think he is the manager & Azim welcome me warmly & lets me sit down with my little girl, makes sure I'm treated like home with a smile right till the end. Very kind people here & spectacular food. You'll love it. Thank you for making a couple of hungry people happy 😅View more

Had an amazing experience at Gandhi! The butter chicken & chicken tikka masala were rich, flavorful, & perfectly spiced. The naan was warm, soft, & paired beautifully with the delicious dipping sauce. To top it off, the Kingfisher beer was a refreshing complement to the meal. The service was exceptionally friendly & impressively quick, making the entire experience even better. Highly recommend for a great Indian dining experience in Montreal.View more
