I always feel more comfortable when the vegan options are labelled, rather than having to trust any reassurances from staff that a menu dish is vegan.
At India Gate, they have a Vegetarian Dishes section but 4 of the dishes are labelled vegan and 2 others have Vegan Optional. Also one of the Biryanis has a vegan option too!
None of the breads are labelled vegan but I asked and was told the Chapati was the only vegan one.
I chose the Chana Masala and two chapatis. Very...read full review
I only had Takeaway, but it was excellent. The place isnt too cosy, but the owner is very attentive and the food is taste.

India Gate is a delightful Indian restaurant located on a superb street, offering excellent food and great service. The friendly staff provide a welcoming atmosphere, making it a must-visit for a curry in Funchal. The restaurant is highly recommended for its delicious dishes, including chana masala and chicken dopiaza, at great value for money.
Several mains are clearly indicated as vegan, and there are a few more unlabelled options as well, such as some starters. The staff are attentive and ensure that no yogurt sauce is brought when ordering vegan dishes.
Customers have described the food as "delicious," "best quality with proper quantity," and "the most delicious food ever." The restaurant offers a range of classic Indian dishes at reasonable prices, and the outside seating area creates a vacation-like atmosphere. While the food can be on the mild side, customers can request their dishes to be spicier.
