Gandhi — Restaurant in Brunswick

This was my first Indian restaurant visit after my visit to the "best ever" Indian restaurant in continental Europe, so my standard about food were too high which explains the "good" rating instead of very good. Firstly it is hotel by Bangeldeshi German which has Chef from Kolkata that means food has a lot of East Indian flavor instead of Mughlai or North Indian flavor that one would look for in the dishes they offer. I would not say it is bad but it is a different taste than authentic North Indian/Punjabi/Mughalai. They as most of the Indian restaurants in the area do not have a Tandoor(Indian clay oven) so your Tandoori Chicken would be actually from electric oven. We ordered Chicken tikka(as starter) and Mutton Korma. Chicken tikka was taste wise ok as it missed the feel of tandoor. Mutton Korma was nice, especially gravy was very Kolkatan. Surprise was Naan, so we were supplied with a bread which could come close to a Sheermaal but definitely not a Naan. I explained to the waitress and she later agreed. I liked the decor cos it was not very "trying-to-be_stereotyped-Indian", it gave a very nice German look. Most appealing part was the service, very friendly half German daughter of the owner waited our table. She did her best to explain the food, was open to opinions. Overall good experience, would definitely visit it again myself and...

One of the nice things with travelling is the possibility to enrich your experience with restaurants and cafés. Since the Indian cuisine is one of my favourites, I often look for an interesting Indian restaurant to visit, and sometimes I am lucky, like when visiting restaurant Gandhi in Braunschweig.

Gandhi looks quite different from many other Indian restaurants, it´s interior is relaxed and simple in a quite sober way. You see only few of the decorations and illustrations that you will find in many other Indian restaurants, focus seems to be on what is served on the plates. And quite so – the food was a very pleasant experience. Our order of chicken dishes were quite delicious, carefully spiced in creamy tasty sauces, cooked to perfection. Judged from that, restaurant Gandhi on Schöppenstedter Straße in Braunschweig might very well be one of the better Indian restaurants I have visited.

The day we were visiting Gandhi there was a big outdoor event in Braunschweig, and therefore many people spent the summer evening outside. That was lucky for us, since we without problem got a table at the restaurant. The very nice waitress told us that we were lucky, since normally the restaurant is fully booked and you would have to make reservations at least one week in advance. It seems not only we are very pleased with what is served in...

We absolutely loved our visit to this Indian restaurant. This was our second visit and we really like the atmosphere, the friendly service, the vintage Indian music and the decorations. 😋❤️

The dishes we chose were delicious and served very nicely. We loved the lamb and chicken dishes and they were all very moderately spicy 😊

There are also small gifts for special occasions, which were a very sweet gesture. What I loved the most was, the waiting time is very less and it's not very crowdy. 😋❤️

It's a great place to celebrate small occasions or hangout with friends or colleagues. We loved the ambience and we look forward to...
