We got a take away the portion sizes were big and all the food was really tasty Crispy chili beef was really good Also had salt and pepper chips, chicken curry, egg fried rice, chicken chow main and lemon chicken the lemon chicken was nice and tasty but the batter could have been more crispy but I guess difficult as it’s in a sauce (maybe sauce should in separate containers) Would recommend this Chinese If your paying cash straight forward but if you want to pay in card the website ordering page isn’t easy

We did order extra bbq sauce but they seemed to substitute this for the sweet and sour sauce that should have come with our prawn balls, as we didn’t get that ….

I’m not usually want to complain, but this was really something. I ordered crispy chilli beef and I understand it should be crispy but this just turned to dust when I cut into it and it tasted like cornflakes.I rang up to complain as it was really not very nice. I was told “ sorry there’s nothing I can do. That’s just how we make it” he said it wasn’t actual strips of beef it was really thin strips to make it crispy…and that there’s nothing that can be done. Well, the was for sure no beef in it, no structure at all to it just like a crisp. So I tried to eat it but I was struggling to swallow it, considering I was hungry, I couldn’t eat it. I called again and queried it and asked to speak to the manager to which he went quiet for 2 mins then came back saying the manager asked me to bring it back to get a refund. So out I went for the second time hoping it would get sorted, but was told I couldn’t get a refund, I had to request it through just eat…so I said can I not just do it in here to get it sorted? He said ‘Yeah sure’ then I waited a few mins and he came back saying ‘Jo we can’t do it here’ so I asked why did I waste more fuel bringing it back then? So he replied ‘Because you didn’t want it’ They didn’t even check it or apologise in anyway…I’m really disappointed, I remember that Chinese always being amazing but seems it’s gone downhill now :(

I’m sorry to say but my food was not nice at all. Firstly the ribs were full of fat and hardly any meat, the vermicelli had no flavour at all but neither did the chicken satay which again was very greasy and full of bamboo shoots rather than chicken. The sweet and sour sauce too lacked flavour and was very congealed. This was so disappointing and feel we will have to try another takeaway in future

I will never order from this restaurant again, my order never showed up. I spoke to the manager who is rude and admitted my food had been ready for 20 minutes and had no idea what time it would be delivered and it never got delivered, even if it had been delivered the food wouldn’t have been fresh and cold as it had already been sat around for 20 minutes already, avoid this restaurant. Terrible service and rude manager.

We have only recently started using the Gourmet Chinese takeaway due to my dad wanting to try somewhere different and came across the takeaway by chance. We have had several meals now from them and have had an excellent meal each time. They do get very busy at times, so if you wish delivery be early or patient waiting on them answering but better still, we found it very easy and convenient popping into the shop. Please be aware that they are cash only and cash on delivery. Please try. im sure you won't be disappointed

Placed an order on Sat21/01/23. First time this year after using Gourmet for a long time. Different person on the phone could hardly understand. Collected and paid in cash as no Card machine. got over £4 in change in 50p's,20p's and 10'p . no other change in till. Got home after 5 mins and food looked awful. The Egg fired rice looked burnt, one meal that was the gourmet special which we have often had hardly any meat ( which was unusual) and very dry. Tried to call to complain but engaged for ages so ate what we could. Learnt later on line they have changed hands and old owners have moved to the Happy house in Elburton Village. Also learnt that their regular driver left after 3 days of new ownership because of complaints from Customers. AVOID at all costs... We Will never use them again.

Regularly order from here and definitely my favourite Chinese in Plymouth, having tried many. My usual order includes the hot and sour soup, a solid spiciness, but excellent balanced flavour. The various ribs are always excellent, but would recommend the Kung po. Sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style is always well cooked and succulent, with the sauce being a good consistency. The salt and chilli chicken is always crispy and has a good kick to the spice. Salt and chilli chips are spectacular and highly recommended. Good curry sauce, which I consider to be difficult to come by in Plymouth. Rarely have issue with delivery and food always arrives hot. Will continue to order from here and look forward to our next order.

Great coffee just very poor service. I’ve been twice to the Plymouth cafe and had horrendous waits for food and coffee. Called in there this morning to be told there was a 20 minute wait, just for two takeaway cappuccinos, which is absurd. Probably won’t bother going there again now, which is a shame because I really do like the coffee.
