The best restaurants serving Indian food in St David's Exeter South West

My fav Indian restaurant in Exeter

Me and my good friend ordered a takeaway Gandhi at around 19:40 Friday evening through Deliveroo. Deliveroo estimated an hour for delivery, but the food was here by 20:10 which was great as we were both hungry. The Gandhi, like usual, does not disappoint. We ordered a fairly large meal for two people, a hot lamb tikka Pathia, and a medium king prawn Ceylon. Both were very delicious. The Pathia was exceptionally flavoursome and not very oily which is so ideal. The Ceylon was lovely and rich in flavour. In addition to the curries we ordered some poppadoms, which were crispy and delicious. As well as many onion bhaji’s which were just also great, very crispy and with really rich onion flavours. I got a zeera rice which I hadn’t tried before but will happily have again, really great herby aroma. My friend ordered the vegetable rice, both of us agreed the portion sizes were great and delicious! We cleaned it all up with some lovely peshwari naan breads, very coconuty and complemented the coconutyness of the Ceylon, and the sweet sour tang of the Pathia! Overall, absolutely sterling meal from the Gandhi, great value for money, generous portion sizes, flavoursome food. 5/5⭐️. 🟦 As we ordered through Deliveroo American Express credit cards were accepted, but the Gandhi also accepts them in store if dining in.

I love this place! My wife and I consider ourselves foodies and we don’t just eat anything because it’s food. We’ve gotta like it to love it! We LOVE this place!! Don’t be caught off guard. I know you’ll probably have the same feelings when you approach the restaurant and see that it’s next to a gas station. This place is a hidden gem and we drive all the way from Clearwater just to eat their food. Give them some grace and an open mind. When we started coming years ago they had a restaurant and still do but they’re doing renovations to it so they have to keep the business going by cooking out of a food truck! The food is just as great! Seriously! I’ve been coming here for years! If anyone is looking for amazing Indian food this is the place- no exceptions! You will love it and I can’t wait to see the updated restaurant! Don’t write a negative review because they can’t open their restaurant right now, it’s out of their hands. They’re doing the best with what they have so let them continue by pushing out legendary cuisine!

Tasted ok but not much chicken in it.

Very plain and lacking any sophistication, but the food is just fab and it s very inexpensiveWeve been several times. The Everest and Base Camp curries and sweet and sour curry are just splendid and the Naans super.

The rieta was a cottage cheese texture. Garlic chilli chicken tasted old and just threw a load of sliced garlic in and almost raw or not cooked enough , when I mean a load I mean vampires wouldn't even take a second look! Poppadoms soft and bendy and naans the same, was all abit sad and very disappointing, shame as a brummie a curry is usually a treat.
