First time we have visited this evening and we truly were not disappointed. Amazing service, lovely warm, cosy feeling. Not rushed at all even though they were very busy. The food was perfect. Hot and lovely and fresh plus plenty of it.
I booked for a Birthday meal for my partner and when we arrived they have decorated our table space with banner and balloons and also came out with a birthday cake and candles at the end which I didn?t order and I wasn?t charged for. The service really was above and beyond and I highly recommend this restaurant.

Ordered for takeaway. Delivery was in good time and the driver was pleasant. Curry was bland and the chicken tasted nasty. Naan bread was nice and the rice is well rice. Bit disappointed that they didn?t give any free poppadoms like all other local restaurants do. Won?t be returning in a hurry.

Partner had Everest chicken , that was it chicken and sauce couldn?t see any chilli?s , and didn?t taste of anything really ?.
I had chicken Tikka Masala not the same at all , different colour tasted more like a korma and had better chicken ! The rice was good ! Very disappointed ??

This was the worst restaurant in the whole Dalwish. The customer service was one of the worst that we have ever experienced, only one waiter was serving and he had so much of an attitude like he owned the restaurant. Strongly suggest the owner of this restaurant to fire him if he wants to keep this business going well.

The food was ok, but the waiter was very rude and customer service was one of the worst, I strongly suggest not to go this restaurant because we came from a long way and then the waiter had a very bad attitude and couldn't even say sorry. And was being so rude.

Excellent meal. Portion sizes were just right and the price was reasonable. All good quality dishes. Service maybe a little on the slow side but still worth the wait for the freshness and quality that arrives to the table. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant which is definitely popular as it filled up as the night went on.

Great food at reasonable prices

The king prawn curry
Too much sauce for how rich it is
However tasty thick coconutty and creamy
The king prawns cooked perfectly
The pashwari chicken curry
It is sweet not overwhelming but could tone it down
Chicken just a tad dry
The jackfruit curry was great it was juicy and tender
Friendly people
Great service
Family friendly
As an Englishmen who likes curry maybe the currys were a bit tame.
The cauliflower dish don't know what it was called, a side, great flavour and cooked perfectly
The Nan and paratha standard

The food here was wonderful and the staff were delighted to hear that my late father fought alongside Gurkhas in North India and that he was presented with a Cukri knife. Which he left to me. He always spoke fondly of the Gurkhas he served with and they must have felt affection for him in return. My wife and I very much enjoyed our evening at this great restaurant.

We drove over 30 minutes to try the food at Gurkha based on positive reviews. I wish we really had not bothered and this was the worst meal and service we have ever had and would give it zero if there was an option to.
As we confirmed about gluten free options at the time of booking so we expected a good selection. I believe it was the owner that took our order and his son was behind the bar.
I asked why the popadoms were not showing as gluten free as they are made out of gram or corn flour and he said that he didn't know which was a concern because he made out that he didn't understand. However he was fluent in english and confidently said the chips were gluten free but a minute ago he didn't understand what Gluten Free Was ?? So we decided to just order a main course each. Over 30 minutes passed and no food but a table of 5 that arrived way after us were getting their food. My husband asked how much longer our food was going to be and was told the larger table was being served before us. He again played a select understanding game. Another 10 minutes passes and the table of 3 next to us were served with starters. My husband approached again and was told it was only starters !! So we told them that we need to leave and was going to pay for our drinks and leave. We finally received our food an hour and half after ordering with no apology and it was awful. I am indian myself so I know what a good or bad curry is. They were both very bland and had no salt or spices in them. My husband approached the owners son to pay and there was not a single apology from him or his dad all evening. His dad approached to clear our table & he didn't ask me why both curries were hardly touched or did we not want to take it home with us. It would have been nice to be asked so we could explain why discreetly without causing a scene.
There was nothing humble or honest about the owner as we listened to him being rude and aggressive to another table of 2 blaming them for an error in their order with no apology.
I strongly advise people to avoid this place at all costs and I don't believe any of the positive reviews are genuine and they are there to draw customers like us in.

It was a home delivery.. I found the food under par for the price charged. The portions were slight, and meat quite light. I would not order from there again.. For 2 people the meal cost over 60 quid and was not a meal I would want to repeat
