"The food was amazing. The naans were light, as was the biryani, and I strongly recommend their Bombay aloo. Service is friendly and professional, the restaurant is clean, prices are realistic and portions are generous. We'll be back! For info, 'dum' in the names of various biryani dishes indicates that the pot in which the biryani is cooked is sealed with a strip of dough, as seen in the photo below."

"First time in this lovely restaurant but it won’t be the last. The biryani was amazing, excellent taste and just spicy enough. The naans were light and soft and the Bombay aloo tasty. The restaurant itself has a very nice quiet atmosphere and the deco is lovely. The staff were so friendly and attentive. Please do visit !"

"One of the best Indian restaurants I’ve visted in Hartfordshire great hospitality great company and amazing value for £21.99 as on the photo. The atmosphere of family run business is beyond welcoming and offering a range of four different curries. It’s basically the equivalent to £100 worth of Curry."

"We had a wonderful experience at India Gate! The food tasted freshly cooked with lots of flavour. The chicken wings were as good as I’ve had in years! Plenty of flesh and succulent. The prawns for the main were large and juicy. The service was excellent, friendly and attentive. I feel it represented really good value for money. I highly recommend India Gate for authentic Indian food."

"Lovely restaurant, really nice friendly service. The mains were great, the prawn starter however wasn't so good, watery, hard and bland.. which tells me they were from frozen. Other than that, very good all round - we will be back and I recommend you go too"

"One of the best Indian food around St Albans area. The restaurant serves authentic Delhi/Punjabi flavours. The staff was very friendly. The restaurant has a 'village curry house' vibe to it."

"Our overall goal experience was nothing short than excellent. We were able to get a reservation on the same day (Saturday) between 18:00 and 19:00. When we arrived we were greeted with a warm welcome from the staff. Once we were seated, the waiter was very attentive and we ordered our drinks from a wide variety of beers, wines and spirits. The food was nothing short of perfect. It was a very traditional menu which meant that we got to experience the true flavours of India. The portion sizes were very generous and very reasonably priced. We will definitely be returning."
