Gandhi Indian Cuisine Banquet

Trying a new restaurant is always a test, but a gem can’t be uncovered without risking a few meals. Riverside has a sizable Indian community, so Gandhi has local competition. New to us, it served a decent, but unspectacular dinner that doesn’t compare wonderfully with other local Indian choices. EntreÃs were lamb vindaloo and butter chicken, perfectly conventional selections, with garlic naan. The chicken and lamb were very tender, but the sauces strayed from the Indian canon. The vindaloo was too sweet; the butter chicken lacked the richness of a classic Chicken Makhani. The naan arrived hot, but limp, as if it had been held too long in a steamer, and lacked distinctive garlic flavor. Bread and rice are extremely important in Indian cooking. This rice was lackluster. Service was friendly, but not particularly attentive. I love Indian food, but with other immediately available options, I cannot recommend Gandhi.

It was our time at Gandhi and we loved it we celebrated my bday and it was more than I could of hoped for. The food is amazing and the service was wonderful. Blanca made our dinner very special and I will definitely go back andIi will also recommend it to friends and family.

Excellent food and great service. Treated my whole party of like royalty. The chef made special suggestions to people who were new to Indian cuisine and everyone loved their meal. I have been a few times and have never been disappointed.

I ordered from here a few times just to taste the food, the food was delicious and the prices are very reasonable.

There are many vegan and vegetarian options that are all clearly marked. they are happy to bring them vegan naan and other brote, and everything tasted fantastic. the portions were large and the service was wonderful. I can't expect to come back.
