India Gate

Best Indian food in Tampa I've been to many different Indian restaurants and this is the only one with great food and great service. The food was amazingly flavorful and the owner was super nice and welcoming. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes. Also it was very clean

Came in to try the lunch buffet. Everything was delicious! Plenty of spice for me on some dishes. I liked every single dish on the buffet- which is a rarity for me. I will definitely be back and recommend people to try this place! Staff is friendly and helpful; they are happy to answer any questions you might have if you are new to Indian cuisine or if you have food allergies.

Food taste and choices were great. On the weekend (including Friday) the price is a bit higher because there is an additional table of choices compared to the offerings during the week. Whether you are a vegetarian or not, there are many choices. What I really loved was that each dish tasted different. Everything I had was tasty. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because I noticed that some folks came in and stood near the door to await greetings and were not greeted in a timely manner. Put a chime on the door, plz.

Excellent food! We are experimental eaters and have tried several items on the menu without disappointment! We live close and love that they offer to go options as well. You have to try the chili or garlic naan! This is definitely a new weekly stop on our list!

Upon arrival, directions are unclear. We waited at the door to be seated for several minutes before a gentleman told us to seat ourselves. Signage would have been helpful to direct us accordingly. The food on the buffet was hot and fresh, and was replenished frequently by the kitchen window behind the buffet. Arriving at the table, there were no drinks or silverware. We missed the self serve silverware on the bar which may have been our fault, but we were again unaware of the process where signage would have assisted. We were provided a pitcher of water and 2 glasses and were not asked if we wanted anything different, or even that they had anything different. When we ran out of water, we had to ask for more water which came to us at room temperature with no ice.
The generous review of 4 stars was due to the quality of food. It is REALLY good. I will try it again in hopes of redemption.
