Gujarat Indian Restaurant

Unclaimed

So we’re on the plane to Saigon from Hué and we see an add for this Indian restaurant chain. That’s what first put this on the map for us. I see they have dosas, and I love dosas, so we went for breakfast. The first day we had a plain dosa and a Mysore dosa. Both dosas were not that crispy, but they were tasty (especially the Mysore dosa, which had nice spice). We tried the chai and it was slightly sweet, so we asked for more sugar. Second time we go we tried two Mysore dosas. Both were cooked well (crispy), but mine wasn’t as spicy as the first time. It was a different server and I think they may have toned the spice down a bit as we’re not South Asian. When I inquired, the manager had the kitchen make it again, but this time it wasn’t as crisp as the previous one. It was spicier though, so there’s that at least. Again, we ask for sweet chai, but it’s not so sweet so we ask for more sugar. Third time we go, we again ask for sweet chai, and again have to ask for more sugar. You’d think at this point they would know we like sweet tea. We tried the samosas which were good, and the aloo paratha (which were not great as they were flaccid and not much filling to speak of). The aloo paratha were served with a side dish of homemade yogurt which was excellent. The food is good, but uneven in execution. Sometimes the dosa are crisp, the next time they’re undercooked. One time the dosa is spicy, next time it’s not, etc. The sambar is tasty. Overall, I’d say the service is good. Very nice people, but having to repeatedly ask for the sugar for the chai is awkward. The atmosphere of the place is lovely. It’s very clean.

This place is an absolute find for anyone craving authentic Indian cuisine. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, all of which were incredibly flavorful. The restaurant is spotless, and the staff is wonderful - especially the manager, who ensured everything went smoothly. We loved it so much that we ended up dining here two days in a row during our visit to Ho Chi Minh. A truly satisfying and memorable experience for our taste buds!

A perfect place for good Indian food They have all varieties of Indian cuisine, they also have lassi and buttermilk. Lassi was thick and nice. The service is quick and is hygienic Can be a little congested as the space is less for the tables Managed by Indians

Almost all of the clients were of Indian descent here, so that must say something. We had dal, biryani, pulao, naan and chapatti. The chapatti was kind of strange. According to the waitress this was the same as the roti on the menu but in India I got served very different chapatti. I mean a pizza sized flatbread with bubbles on it and very crunchy. Maybe roti is a general name.

We had an incredible experience at Gujarat Indian Restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City. The restaurant is located in the heart of the city so if you're planning your day to visit the War museum, Post Office and Ban Than Market and thinking of grabbing some authentic vegetarian food, then you must visit this place. You'll feel like 'At Home' once you enter the restaurant. Special Thanks to Bhanji Bhai who has been so kind to us for serving delicious food.
