Delicious food served fast & presented nicely on a platter. Atmosphere was calm & not noisy like other restaurants can be. Service came with a smile. Extremely happy on my 1st visit & plan to return.

First time eating here and it didn't disappoint, there was a good variety of curries on the menu from tikkas to vindaloo. I got a Madras, great flavour, went for a hot spice level, but probably should have gone with extra hot as I love a spicy curry.

Some of the best Indian cuisine you'll find in Seminole county. Great tasting, spiced in degrees of hotness you can choose. The food is art! Try the Rupee Basmati Rice Lager!

Arguably best Indian food in Orlando, my favorite for many years. I really like bringing people new to Indian food here. I usually get a saag dish but I have had korma and butter dishes here and they are all good.

Upon arrival I was greeted graciously by my host Jesse V. I walked in knowing exactly what I wanted as it is my favorite Indian cuisine, the Rogan Josh curried lamb. The food arrived steaming hot and was absolutely phenomenal. Over a bed of decadent white rice I poured my curry with a spice so nice! Jesse is a great host and was very friendly and accommodating! Would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to dine with great food and a warm atmosphere! The smells from the parking lot to the dining area will have you chomping at the bit to get a taste of their food!

The food here is absolutely delicious. We loved it. The restaurant itself is clean, and decorated nicely with Indian vibes. The service is lacking, many of the tables were not bussed, our drinks didn’t get refilled and after dinner we sat for a long time before seeing our server to pay the bill. The food though was worth it so I’m keeping it at 5 stars.

This was our first time trying this restaurant and we were not disappointed. We ordered the Gateway appetizer which was awesome. The food quality was perfect as we ordered several different curried chicken dishes and the lamb chops. Everything came out with a fabulous presentation and all dishes were hot. The ambiance and the service was excellent. Our servers took the time to explain and answer all of our questions. We will definitely come back and recommend this place to you. One of our new favorites now..!!

We had such a nice experience at Gateway to India; however, we must disclose that when we came, the restaurant was basically empty so, we had the full service attention on us. That said, the staff was very friendly and diligent. More importantly, the food was simply delicious. The portions weren’t huge but, they were more than enough to satisfy our appetite.
