Offering Tandoori food with all the ingredients in the right places, the familiar dishes of this inner-city Indian bear a distinct resemblance to the suburban variety most of us are used to but far surpass it in quality. Here, northern Indian cuisine is given the respect it deserves by people who understand the complexity of the spices and scents and know how to get the best out of the traditional Tandoor oven. The worn, cosy environment and great-value meals are enough to inspire the sort of loyalty normally reserved for the aforementioned local takeout.

Hearty Indian food
I've been to Gaylord Indian Restaurant twice now. The service is efficient (when you can flag down a waiter) and the food comes out promptly after you have placed an order. The curries are great and warming, with delicate flavours infused with great herbs and spices - always works perfectly with a generous helping of saffron rice or naan bread.
Although not the most memorable of restaurants, definitely a great option for good and hearty Indian cuisine.

Melbourne's best Indian cuisine
This restaurant is the best place to go in Melbourne for fantastic Indian cuisine. If you think you've found somewhere better, please let me know! The curries here are amazing...subtle and delicate blends of herbs and spices. The Garlic Nan bread is intense. The service is not great admittedly, but then great service and authentic Indian food don't usually go hand in hand. Just ignore the service, keep asking for water, and enjoy the amazing Indian food!!!!

Gaylord Indian Restaurant
This excellent establishment, situated in Melbourne CBD, is totally awesome. Nobody in the entire restaurant was wearing a suit, not even me with my propensity for wearing finely tailored suits that make me look more handsome than Dorian Gray.
I was brought water immediately by using an old restaurant trick called ASKING FOR IT. The waiters were by no means impolite or snobbish, what the previous poster failed to realize is that a good portion of the staff does not have English as their first language and therefore are fairly brief with words in order to prevent confusion.
Most amusing in the previous review is the line, "but forget it if you want a nice place to relax with friends."
In conclusion Gaylord Indian Restaurant serves great Indian food with a staff that is high on efficiency and low on small talk. The prices are totally reasonable for the quantity and quality of food you get, and the food gets to you quickly.

Not worth the effort
Located in the middle of the Melbourne CBD, this establishment seems to turn up its nose if you aren't in a suit. From the 6 requests for a jug of water before one came, and the derisive tone of the waiters, you could be forgiven for thinking they were in the business of trying to get you to leave.
The food itself was quite average, and for the cost is nothing to get excited about. The decor, like the restaurant itself looks good from afar, but on a closer inspection is quite tacky.
I'm sure it's reasonable if you look like you're worth a bundle, but forget it if you want a nice place to relax with friends.
