This family owned establishment is truly lovely! This is my 3rd time dining here with close friends I have here in Buffalo! I always make a point of stopping for Jassa's delicious cuisine. His chicken wings are crispy, beautifully spiced & the sauce is divine. His chai is the real deal, highly recommend. I love the chicken korma & garlic naan. Tell your friends. read more

What a great Father's Day dinner I had here. Beef samosa was delish. Garlic naan was fantastic. India gate special was a great mix of curry and tandoori and wonderful. I did have leftovers. Tried my wife's fried tofu dish. Forgot the name but it was unexpectedly great. Service was perfect. Nice casual atmosphere. I'm still full.... read more

This was my first visit here and WOW! I was impressed! My husband and I had movie tickets to see Pee Wee's Big Adventure at the North Park Theater to honor the recent passing of Mr. Paul Reubens so I said let's make a night of it and try India Gate right down the street. I adore Indian and he likes it too. So we made reservations for 7pm on a Sunday. When we got there it was obvious we didn't need a reservation as the place wasn't very busy but the gentleman who greeted us knew my name as soon as I said while looking around "we have a reservation-- not that I think we needed one but hey--" lol We decided to sit on the patio and I'm glad we did. It was such a nice evening and we watched the cars and bicycles go by. We had quite a bit of time before our movie so we started with cocktails. A Heineken for him and a strawberry Lassi martini for me. YUM!! When it came to the food, we started with an order of beef samosas, which were very good. We also sprang for a plate of chicken pakora. My husband had never had pakora before and he didn't like it, but he liked the samosa quite a bit. For our entrees he went with the beef curry and I stepped out of my usual and went with the chicken vindaloo. I almost always get Makhani-- unless I go with saag alu, but I decided to branch out and I'm glad I did. It was great. Of course I had to have some garlic naan and a small side of raita, and when I was about to order some mango chutney, our server asked if he could make a suggestion and then easily talked me into trying the spicy pickles. WOW!! They were so good!! We I should add that we asked for our dishes to be made spicy and boy oh boy did we get spicy! Don't get me wrong, my husband and I wanted it spicy-- it's just that we usually don't get it. If we order delivery and ask for spicy, it comes spicy. If we go in person and ask for spicy, we get something closer to mild. I have come to the conclusion that people who look like us who THINK they like spicy food, actually don't. WELL, WE DO! When I go to Vietnamese restaurants I get often have to get a dish of chopped Thai chilis on the side of whatever I've ordered because it usually isn't hot enough. But this place accommodated us right out the gate!! Phew!! This is the first place I've been to in the Buffalo area that actually made the food hot enough for us the first time! My super picky husband was very impressed and said he'd be happy to come back here with me often! Now that's a stamp of approval! Thank you, IG Hertel! We loved everything and we'll see you soon! read more

India Gate - Indian Near Me - Buffalo, New York

*Taste of Buffalo review* Festival food can sometimes be subpar just due to the pace and quantity at which they have to make it but this was delicious! The flavor was very well seasoned - I personally like a tomato-ey sauce and this was perfect. The only thing I would change is to make it spicier. I added the restaurant to my list to visit because I'm sure it will be even better. And they gave a giant portion for what it cost. read more

I can't believe I've never reviewed this place before! Hands down, my number one option for Indian cuisine. Conveniently located on Hertel, they have their own parking lot and generally aren't too busy. The waiter is always super friendly and inviting. Anything you want, he will try his best to cater to you! The lamb kabobs are delicious and served with a perfect brown sauce to top it off. The brown sauce has a bit of a sweet aspect to it. The butter chicken tikka masala is my favorite dish. The chicken is tender with a creamy sauce. The chicken tikka masala is a bit spicy and has a lot of onions, tomatoes and peppers. Nonetheless, a wonderful experience everyone should try! read more

Beautiful restauraunt. Lovely, clean, lavish feel. staff was great. Everyone was quick, friendly and attentive. My drink was okay, but I really was excited that they had a cocktail menu. They had a separate drink menu that included tea, smoothies, cocktails and wine (and maybe beer? I dont remember). I always appreciate a good drink menu! The food menu was also extensive, well organized, and felt like a nice book! All sorts of options, including vegetarian. This was my first time eating Indian food so i loved how everything had a description. Food came out hot and in large portions. Everything was also very reasonably priced. I ended up getting garlic naan (delicious) and chicken butter masala. This was my first time eating indian food, and i'm not sure if its for me, but i'm glad I tried it (i'm just not super into spicy food, but of you love lots of seasonings and spice, you'll enjoy it!) They also have mild or hot options for most things, which is cool. Overall great experience. I recommend if this is a cuisine that you typically enjoy. read more

We did take out from here recently. Lunchtime order. Order was easily placed and taken, order was ready when it said it would be, well packaged. Cost is reasonable. Inside, when you go to pick up food, you'll see plenty of tables, and they are nicely spaced. They also have a full bar. They have off street parking, which has a nice mural to look at. read more

Delicious Indian food. We ordered to go yesterday and got the lamb vindaloo and the chicken tikka masala with garlic naan. Both were amazing, the tikka masala was different than I've had previously as the vegetables were chopped up in the sauce but I actually enjoyed that. The vindaloo was perfectly spicy. They didn't have our order ready on time and definitely missed it as when we arrived they initially didn't have our order at all and then "found it" after refreshing their order page. Had to wait another 15 minutes after waiting 30 when we placed our order online. Not the biggest deal but maybe try calling directly vs using their online ordering. Irregardless we will absolutely order from here again, well priced for your portion and so tasty! read more

I was in no mood to cook so we decided to try a new Indian restaurant. We ordered the vegetable platter, garlic naan, and chicken madrasi. I loved some things from the platter like samosa, aloo tikki, and onion pakora. A couple of other things were bland and so-so (paneer pakora, cauliflower pakora). I didn't like the green and red chutneys/dips they packed for garnish; we ended up eating our homemade chutneys instead. The chicken dish was okay and the naan was a bit stiff and chewy instead of soft. But the flavor of everything was good. I will probably try a few other things from here before making up my mind. read more

This is the best Indian food you can find. One delicious dish after another. The service and people are amazingly hepful, personable, and the restaurant itself is beautiful. Jaspal the owner is a marvelous man. Kudos on their success. read more

India Gate - Seating - Indian Near Me - Buffalo, New York

My FAVORITE Indian Food in Buffalo and I'd eat here every day if I could. I loved the old location too and was thrilled when this one opened closer to me. Every time someone visits from out of town, I bring them here. Whenever my dad comes to visit it's not Anchorbar or any of those wing places he needs to go to--it's here. I want to order their saag by the tubful. They've also got great parking and it's never too crowded so it's easy to get a table. One time I forgot my to-go box on my table after I left once and when I called like half an hour later on the off-chance it didn't get thrown it out, it turned out they'd saved it for me in case I remembered suffice to say I came back for it and it made me late to an event but I didn't care because their food is THAT good I wasn't letting those leftovers go to waste lol anyway yeah India Gate is the best!! read more

Had dinner at India Gate this evening & both the food & service were exceptional !!! we have already sent emails to friends recommending that they dine there !!!! read more

The food was good. The atmosphere was good. No complaints. The were other things I viewed not so positively, hence the three star. The main problem was one cup of Chai is $5.00. That is expensive for a non-alcoholic drink anywhere, one tea cup. When I asked for a second cup, I was told it is not complimentary with the purchase. So, if we both would have wanted a second cup of tea, it would have been $20.00 for two cups of tea. HUH? $20.00 for tea? Seems very strange to me. Overall it was a lovely experience, but $20.00 for tea. read more

I just had dinner here. It was FABULOUS! We started with Gobi Pakora for an appetizer. It was so good. The sauce and relish over the fried cauliflower-- amazing!

India Gate is one of my favorite restaurants, and my pick for best Indian food in WNY, so I was thrilled to see them open a North Buffalo location. Their food is delicious, portions are ample, pricing is reasonable, and you can get each dish according to your preferred spice level. Household favorites include their saag paneer, chicken kashmiri, chicken curry, naan (obvs), and massive samosas. Getting their yummy food during pandemic has been a breeze, too: easy online ordering, quick hot delivery, and friendly service. Can't wait to try in-person dining whenever that becomes possible! read more
