In a paragraph
Gate of India is a City Road Indian restaurant for classic curry-house dishes, Balti, tandoori, takeaway, delivery, groups and station-side dinners.
What it's like
Gate of India is the old-school City Road curry-house option: red-tablecloth mood, long local memory, Indian and Balti standards, takeaway and late dinner.
Classic curry house with caveats
It is not trying to be the modern polished Indian in the centre. That can be a strength if you want familiar curry-house comfort. It can also be a weakness if you need the whole thing to feel sharp and current.
Worth knowing
Gate of India has loyal fans and proper history, but it is not a no-caveat recommendation. Use it for classic curry-house comfort, especially if City Road suits the night.
