    This is probably our favourite restaurant but it's not without its flaws.

    - The food is too expensive. Upwards of 25 bucks each for Butter Chicken or Lamb Vindaloo is too high.
    - The service is OK but certainly isn't stellar. Some of the staff are nice while others, not so much.
    - Some of the quality seems to have gone downhill in the past year.

    If there was a larger selection of Indian restaurants we'd probably look elsewhere but there aren't many options here.

    For the quality of food, this place is WAY over-priced. $16 for a standard vegetarian dish of poor quality. If this were a cheap, fast place I'd give it a lot more credit, but as is it really leaves a lot to be desired.

    Good points were friendly staff and pretty good coffee.

    Best indian food I've ever had.  I can't wait to get back to St. Johns and have it again.  My girl and I split the dinner for two, and a bottle of wine.  We ordered chicken tikka, spicy lamb curry, chana masala, and samosas.  All of it was amazing.  I even woke up in the middle of the night craving it, and had to have some more.  
    The service was excellent, very low key, and very helpful.  
    I tried to come once before this to sample their lunch buffet, and they were to packed to accommodate us.  Now I can see why.
    Indian Gate, I would give you six stars if I could.  Don't change a thing.

    Excellent, authentic Indian food. Their lunchtime buffet is a great value and on Friday they have Butter Chicken, one of their most popular dishes, on it. Make a reservation or you will likely be turned away and even with one you may have to wait, especially on Friday.
    Decor is a little dark but the friendly, efficient staff and the delicious food make up for it.

    Out for a family dinner in downtown St. John's we decided to try this place. Coming from a town where you can spit and find an Indian restaurant, we are not easily impressed. And we were not easily impressed. Much of the food was very good (not outstanding), but some of the items,  the Butter Chicken and saag in particular, were too sweet. It was not bad tasting, but weird and unnecessary. Service and decor were good. Cardamom on the way out was missing the cardamom seeds - so it was just the candy. Again, not bad tasting, just takes away from the authenticity. We'd try it again but....
