" Had a great time here! The place is lovely, and the staff were attentive. The food was good, especially the samosas and the butter chicken, but I found some of the dishes to be slightly bland compared to what I've experienced in India. Nonetheless, everything was cooked well, so I can't complain too much. I’ll certainly give it another shot and explore more of what the menu has to offer! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food at Gateway to India is undeniably lovely! The paneer tikka is a must-try. It’s flavorful and grilled to perfection! I must admit that the service could be improved; we experienced a little wait for drinks. However, the overall experience was delightful and I highly recommend the lunch buffet for those looking to explore different dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having eaten in Indian restaurants across the country, I felt a bit let down by my experience. Although the food was good, it didn't compare to what I've had before. My chicken vindaloo was mild and tasted alright but lacked the bold spiciness I enjoy. The ambiance was cozy and the servers were polite, but I was hoping for more standout dishes. I might visit again with a different dish in mind. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, I’m so glad I took the plunge and came here! The food is outstanding! Everything felt freshly made. I particularly enjoyed the palak paneer, which had exquisite flavor. The atmosphere was serene, making it a perfect weekend getaway spot for a family meal. The staff was welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. I can’t wait to bring my friends here and spread the word about this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" The dining experience at Gateway to India could be described as good but not excellent. The food was tasty with a nice variety, but I expected more authentic flavors based on the reviews. The staff was helpful, but the service lacked that personal touch that can really enrich the dining experience. The space itself is well-kept and pleasant, though it doesn’t quite have that bustling atmosphere often found in authentic Indian restaurants. I might visit again, but it may not be my first choice. " (*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!
