In the middle of all the action down Tsim Sha Tsui’s Ashley Road – indeed, amid the clutch of restaurants and bars in the Ashley Centre – Gaylord Indian Restaurant reigns supreme over Indian cuisine, whipping culinary classics into shapes worthy of the Michelin Guide. A landmark Hong Kong Indian restaurant since 1972, Gaylord’s reputation extends far beyond the shores of the city. Not only is the food supremely good, but Gaylord likes to keep things even more exotic with live nightly entertainment, including traditional Indian dancers. Be sure to book well in advance.
Gaylord Indian Restaurant’s pedigree is hard to match in Hong Kong. Established in 1972,
Gaylord is a veteran of the South Asian culinary scene in a city notorious for its discerning
palates and high restaurant turnover (and we mean here founding and foundering, rather than
turning a profit!). The restaurant itself has seen Tsim Sha Tsui grow up around it, transforming
into a cosmopolitan hub. Ashley Road in particular is a famous nightspot, known for its bars and
eateries, and this is where you can find Gaylord, sitting pretty in the Ashley Centre, decked out
elegantly with multiple alcoves set around the dining room walls that are ideal for an intimate,
romantic rendezvous.
And what a rendezvous a night at Gaylord Indian Restaurant
can be! Open seven days a week for two sittings – lunch from noon until 2:30pm and dinner
from 6pm until 11pm – the best time to catch a truly immersive Indian cultural and culinary
experience is in the evening, when this inimitable Tsim Sha Tsui Indian restaurant dims the
lights and lets a roster of Indian dancers and musicians grace the dining room. It’s times like
these that you should consider booking Gaylord for a group session. In truth, however, the star
of the show is of course the food, and Gaylord’s menu is one of the most comprehensive and
authentic in Hong Kong. Begin with traditional shuruat and shorba (starters and
soups), before ordering a round of sanghisathi (sides) and a selection of tandoori and
vegetarian delights. Seafood figures large here, too, while biryani and plenty of tandoorifresh
Indian breads complete a feast you won’t forget.
I love the lamb curry most of all. Also thank you for having the band sing "Happy Birthday" Indian style, that was funny and unique.
Great food and nice live music as well. Very friendly waiter. Price is moderate and absolutely fine. Will come again for sure next time when in Hong Kong.
A good restaurant for Indian food. Some of the best quality Indian food in HK. Fish tikka and curry are both very good. The live music is an added bonus.
Always great Indian food and service at conveniently located Gaylord's. Gaylord's buffest offer excellent value for money and is offered Sunday's to Fridays. Great Deal!
Went there for lunch with friends. There are 4 lunch sets that are less than hundred and buffet set for slightly over a hundred. Pricing is very humble. Quality of food is much better than expected. I had the curry chicken with rice, flavor is rich and the taste of the naan is epic, totally loved it and will definitely go back for it. The waitress looked a bit unwelcoming tho, service was ok but there's room for improvement.
Service was good , but we were expecting more varation of the food served, There was only 2 nonveg main cource., so not much option to eat. Even my Guest who we brought was all excited to have the indian buffet but was little disapointed with the selection.
Food quality is good. Food portion is a bit small but price is high. As we started our dinner early, the environment is quiet and atmostphere is comfortable. We are lucky to be served by a nice lady who's flexible and helpful.
the food was very good and authentic, a good choice of wine and other beverage, and it would be perfect if there were life Indian performance even in weekdays !
We arrived on time, and the choices of food is good. Yummy food and good service. I like the lamb and the naan. We will go again.
We went to Gaylord for the 5. time. It's always a wonderful experiance! Thank you! Delicious food and friendly serving... just a nice restaurant to be!
