" I had the pleasure of dining at Gateway to India recently, and it was an incredible experience! The vegetarian options were plentiful, which was a relief for my diet. The flavors were vibrant, and you could taste the authenticity in every bite. The staff was exceptionally friendly and made great suggestions that truly enhanced our meal. The atmosphere was also warm and inviting, perfect for a peaceful dinner. I highly recommend trying their paneer dishes and the mango lassi! I will definitely be returning again soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations after hearing great things about Gateway to India, but I left feeling a bit disappointed. The food was decent, but nothing really blew me away. The servers were hoveringly attentive, which made me feel rushed. While I enjoyed the decor of the place, I thought the energy was lacking a bit. I might come back to give it another try, especially for the buffet, but I didn’t feel a strong desire to return immediately. " (*Curated Review*)

" Gateway to India is a wonderful place for anyone who loves Indian food. I visited for the lunch buffet, and I was blown away by the extensive selection. Everything was fresh and flavorful—the dhall and biryani were particularly outstanding! I also appreciated how easy they made it to identify vegan options, which made my experience even better. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, providing a great dining environment. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was somewhat unfamiliar with Indian cuisine before my visit to Gateway to India, and I must say, I left as a fan. The Chicken Tikka Masala was rich and flavorful, and the garlic naan paired perfectly with it. I also enjoyed the vegetable korma—it was creamy and satisfying. That said, the service was a little slow at times, and it took longer than expected to get our drinks. Nevertheless, the friendly demeanor of our server made up for it. All in all, I would recommend Gateway to India to anyone wanting to explore Indian flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nothing beats the taste of authentic Indian food! Gateway to India provides an array of options that truly represent Indian cuisine well. The location itself is decorated beautifully, and the service was commendable. I particularly enjoyed the treat of their butter chicken! I would love to return and try more from the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love this place, but unfortunately, my experience was lacking. Although the menu had a good variety, the flavors didn't quite match my expectations, especially when it came to the spice levels—more so on the mild side. The server was polite but seemed a bit rushed. The environment was clean but didn't evoke the coziness you expect from an Indian restaurant. I wouldn’t rule it out completely, perhaps I'll try again in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming here for years, and it just keeps getting better! The owners are super friendly and always greet customers with smiles. The lunch buffet is a personal favorite, with lots of options to choose from. I particularly love their desserts! The cleanliness is commendable, and I feel comfortable bringing my family here knowing the quality is consistent. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to dive deep into Indian flavors!
