" Every visit to India Gate is consistently satisfying! The buffet offers numerous authentic Indian dishes that evoke my memories of India. The palak paneer was enchanting, and the garlic naan practically floated off the plate! The opening hours also work really well for us as a quick family eat-out option. While the seating can get cramped as dinner time arrives, the staff is friendly and attentive. I would highly recommend checking it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" India Gate is a fantastic option if you're craving Indian comfort food. I enjoyed their lunch buffet on a recent visit, and it was delightful! The butter chicken and spicy lamb were excellent, reminding me of my time in India. While the restaurant was packed, the service was attentive enough. The atmosphere may not be the most upscale, but it was very comfortable. I'll certainly be coming back for a repeat visit for more unique dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard great things about India Gate so I decided to give it a try last weekend. I ordered the South Indian thali and was pleasantly surprised by the flavors and the freshness of the ingredients. The dosa was crispy, and the sambar was rich in flavor. However, there were a couple of items that didn’t quite meet my expectations, like the vada, which was slightly oily. Service was commendably fast, despite the crowd. Overall, a solid dining experience that I intend to repeat, with a few menu tweaks in mind for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently organized a family dinner at India Gate, and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. The buffet selection offered something for every palate, and the food was consistently fresh and delicious. Notably, the goat curry and palak paneer were standout dishes that everyone raved about. Additionally, the staff was friendly and ensured our drinks were filled without having to ask. Although the atmosphere was quite casual and not overly elegant, the food more than made up for it. Definitely worth the value, we'll be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stumbled upon India Gate while searching for a new Indian food joint, and was very pleased! The buffet spread had an array of rich curries, and the chicken biryani was aromatic and delightful—definitely worthy of a revisit. Service was friendly yet slightly overwhelmed, likely due to the crowd on a Sunday afternoon. I appreciated the cleanliness of the establishment, although the seating felt a bit cramped at times. I indulged in dessert, especially their mango pudding, and it added a perfect sweet ending to the meal. Overall, a great dining experience packed with flavor and authenticity! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had an amazing experience at India Gate! The Indian buffet was everything I hoped for and more. All the dishes we tried were warm and bursting with flavors. Even the desserts were impressive, which is often a hit-or-miss at buffets. The staff remained courteous and made sure our table was cleaned immediately after each course. I couldn’t have asked for a better value for money, given that the wide selection allowed for a fulfilling meal at an outstanding price. It's definitely one of my favorites now! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner at India Gate last week. The ambiance was casual, but the food was the star of the show! I particularly enjoyed their butter chicken—a must-try. I will say, though, that some items were on the spicier side, so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to heat. The naan paired beautifully with various dishes, and my family adored the desserts, especially the gulab jamun. The service was friendly but seemed overwhelmed at times due to the crowd. Nonetheless, I would absolutely revisit to explore more of their offerings! " (*Curated Review*)
