Gandhi restaurant Indian — Restaurant in Bonneville

We have visited the restaurant for several years now during ski season, so we have experience here. The food, I’ll get to, but first the timing:

Having books for doors open at 7pm we were the third table to be sat. 7:20pm Order taken 7:45pm Drinks have arrived as do the popadoms 8:05pm meals arrive 8:10pm Starters arrive 8:35pm Main course arrives

For us to have three tables ordering in front of us and having to wait over an hour from sitting down to the kids food arriving and over 1hr30 for a main course is unimaginable. The kitchen obviously had an in-depth problem with their service.

The restaurant was not fully booked, it was possibly at 70% capacity by 8pm, with two wait staff, which to be honest we barely saw the entire visit.

Food - All naan breads were small, flat, dense and flavourless. Onion bhaji’s were barely warm (Almost an hours wait on these!) Butter chicken was way to creamy and honestly had 4 pieces of medium sized chicken. I’m certain it was not even a full breast. I paid over 17e for this!

In short, the service and food have gone down very badly this year. What frustrated me the most was A. They knew the kitchen was slow, but ignored informing customers they are behind, which could have helped matters. B The owners lack of understanding, that when they ask for feedback it can be positive and negative. How they use this feedback will impact their business, apologising and moving on does not resolve the core issues causing...

Awful just awful! Poppadoms I would guess came from supermarket,pickles and sauces were watered down and served in what I can only describe as thimbles.onion bhajis were ok but nothing special.peshwari nan was lacking coconut,well lacking anything in the middle to be fair,the curries were absolutely tasteless and watery,I had tikka masala and my friend korma (both chicken) you would expect some colour of the sauce to run through the meat but it didn’t,I have had far better curry from a microwave at the supermarket! The rice was ok but then you would expect that in an Indian restaurant.the food took ages to come and was a huge dissapointment,I wish I had read the reviews before we decided to eat there,We are British and didn’t want to embarrass the staff (all 2 of them) in front of the other customers so we paid and left without a fuss. Update I have just read the response to my review and rather than take on board our criticism she has resorted to abusing me and anyone else from England it seems. Please people read her comments,unbelievable! Basically (from what I can understand from her spelling and grammar) she is saying that because my parents did not educate me right that I cannot tell the difference between good and bad food.sorry but if it tastes bad then it is bad,education or geography has nothing to...

I have dined at Gandhi on and off during the last 10 years, and each and every time it has been not only delicious, but a delight. I will refer to our meal today, which was up to the usual high standards I have come to anticipate. My partner and I work odd hours, so a place we can go to get delicious food at 11h30 on a Friday is nothing short of a gift in a town that is notoriously difficult to get an early meal.

We were, admittedly, a bit bummed that samosas weren't available, but the pakora we got instead were equally delicious. Clearly made with quality ingredients and much love. For our mains, the biryani and tikka masala were both exceptional. Flavorful, perfectly prepared, and just the right portion size to avoid over eating, something we have both experienced with indian food in the past. The cocktails we ordered were spectacular. Refreshing and delicious on a hot afternoon.

If you enjoy indian food, and find yourself in Chamonix, please don't sleep on Gandhi. They may not be in centreville, but this is a restaurant that is well worth the travel time. From one restaurant owner to another, kudos to the team at Gandhi for running an amazing restaurant for so long and never...
