" I have to say, my experience was not what I expected. The food was good but lacked the bold flavors I was looking for, especially from an Indian restaurant. While the ambiance was cozy, I felt the service was a bit slow during the busy hours. I ordered the chicken tikka masala, and it was decent but didn’t have the level of spice I anticipated. It’s still a nice place, but I might give it another shot on a less busy day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently, I tried Gandhi Mahal for the first time during lunch and was impressed by the variety in the buffet. They had everything from spicy curries to savory fried snacks. The flavors were all quite enjoyable, though I did think some dishes could use a bit more seasoning. The service staff was helpful and brought fresh naan to our table, which was a highlight! I would recommend visiting during lunch for a great variety of dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" We went to Gandhi Mahal for an evening out and were blown away by the flavors. From the appetizer to dessert, everything was superb! I particularly enjoyed the tandoori chicken and would highly recommend it. The staff was friendly but can get a bit busy—hence the four stars for service. I'll certainly be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to Gandhi Mahal a couple of times and the food has always been good, but on my last visit, I felt something was off. The spices didn't seem as vibrant as usual, especially in the korma. The environment is really inviting, and the servers are always polite, but I hope they get back to their flavorful roots! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic place! The food was splendid, and I especially loved the fact that they have vegan options as well. We tried the aloo gobi and it was perfectly spiced—not too hot for my taste! The vibe of the place is cozy, perfect for a small gathering with friends. I can't wait to try the dessert next time; I've heard amazing things about their kheer! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely birthday dinner at Gandhi Mahal! The atmosphere was super cozy, and I loved how the staff decorated a little table for us. My favorite part was the rich paneer tikka; it was succulent and packed with flavors. We also shared a dessert, and it was the perfect end to a delightful meal. I highly recommend it for special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who really enjoys Indian food, I was impressed with Gandhi Mahal! The flavors were vibrant and all spices were well balanced—not overwhelming at all. The ambiance was pretty relaxing and definitely conducive for a nice evening meal. I would recommend the saag paneer; creamy and delicious! " (*Curated Review*)
