Ordered food and went to pay in cash ( cash only in store) to be accused of giving him fake notes… making it very awkward even after we told him to use a pen on the note he still kept staring at us and the money. The food was awful we had half cooked chips the curry sauce lid wasn’t on properly and leaked all over the bag and other food.

I’ve tried all the local Chinese takeaways recently and this one stood out as the best by quite some distance for both quality and taste. Crispy chilli beef and Singapore vermicelli were particular highlights.

Food came really quick and knew very quickly why . Chilli beef was absolutely disgusting tasted like been cooked in oil that had been there for weeks. Wanted to throw up me and my partner have ordered in the past but this was disgusting . When called up to express my concern was offered free food the next time . After spending alot of money on this food I was far from impressed . Women on phone was rude will never order from there again . Disgusting food. And poor service when rang to complain . I would really think twice about ordering from here . She knew what I was on about as trying to tell me that crispy chilli beef doesn't get fried in oil. WOW. Very disappointed and will never be a customer again . After ordering many many times before .

Only discovered Gourmet San recently, been looking for a good Chinese takeout for a while, but at last I found just what I was looking for. Very polite staff, and beautiful well cooked food, WELL DONE!! Can't wait for my next takeout, thank you 👍😋.

Im a regular and I just ordered a menu with bottle of water, I haven't received my water! Last week I've been waiting for my order, an hour. Not really happy with this. If this keeps going on, I'll have to find a better place!

Polite, friendly staff. The food is really good and I’ve never had a bad meal from here. Delivery is very fast and the food is always piping hot. No card payment on the premises, but you can pay via card online. Our favourite Chinese takeaway!

popped here en route home to grab dinner! worth knowing: cash only (which is totally fine, machine is just up the road) food was absolutely delicious, good portions, and the lady was really sweet about me asking to switch about my set meal to have a veggie main. will definitely go back :)

Ordering on the phone was polite patient and helpful with good advice on mixing the 5 different mains and other dishes we ordered. The delivery was prompt and a very polite friendly man. All the food was very good indeed, highest quality cooking and ingredients, one of the best Chinese meals I've had. The cost of the meal seemed surprisingly low for high quality food like this and with delivery too. And I'm not complaining about that, or was exceptional value!

This is the best Chinese in Cheltenham. I have tried many in town, but the quality and freshness is excellent. Never had a problem and recommend this place to all my friends and family. Beef with ginger and spring onions and crispy chilli beef beat all others I have tried in 10 mile radius of home.

Service was extremely quick. I soon discovered why. The chicken was so undercooked, actually pink with giblets still hanging from it. I drove back to return it . She argued that the 'pink' on the chicken was from the beef. She became a bit stroppy but eventually agreed when she noticed me videoing, to refund my money. No - I will not risk to buy food from there again.

Good food & a lot of it. A bit pricey but good value for the amount you get. Avoid the wontons as ours were burnt to a chrisp.

New customer to Gourmet San, - (having previously used a competitive take -away, and had a few bad meals !!) We decided to try these guys based on reviews on trip advisor. Thoroughly enjoyed our take -away meals and will definitely use again. I would definitely recommend.

Love this place! Have used them for years and is the best Chinese in Cheltenham in my humble opinion. The Yeong Chow Fried Rice is my staple dish, and love the Crispy Shredded Beef and the noodle dishes. I'm a fussy eater, and everything I ask for is always delivered without issue (no peppers in this, no prawn in that, add chilli to the noodles, etc). They are awesome. Delivery service is also super, and 9 out of 10 times arrives earlier than expected! If you've not tried these guys before, try them tonight!! 😊

We always get out chinese from Gourmet San! The double happiness is a personal favourite of ours and my boyfriend also love the satay chicken! Delivery is always on time (or early sometimes!) and food is always hot. They’ve never missed anything that we’ve ordered and are much better than any other local take away’s that we’ve tried!

I think you would struggle to find better Asian food anywhere in Cheltenham,their special vermicelli is the best. You need to try it.

We lived in China, so our standards are quite high. We've tried literally every Chinese restaurant in Cheltenham and Gourmet San is *definitely* the best! Their shredded duck is to die for as are dumplings and all the main dishes we've ever ordered. Every now and then we go somewhere else just to see what's on offer but we always come back to Gourmet San because they are, quite simply, the best! Xie xie!

I don't get Chinese often, in fact this was my first in several years (after a poor experience somewhere else). However this place has reinvigorated my hunger for decent Chinese food. Reasonable price and good food. We had duck chow mein, mixed meat chow mein, duck won tons and mixed meat sweet and sour balls. Absolutely lovely.

Amazing food, great price and wonderful service. I used to order to collect but have since moved and the food delivered is just as fresh and hot as when I collected. House and chef specials are amazing quality and great value for money even if you are buying on a budget. I moved here 8 years ago and tried nearly every Chinese in Cheltenham and they cannot beat Gormet San on quality, price or customer service.

Always use Gourmet San for Chinese food - sure I read somewhere that they do not use monosodium glutamate which swayed me as I'm prone to migraine. Food is always delicious and plentiful.

Dreadful disappointment. The hot and sour soup was so bland that DH only ate one spoonful. Fried rice and Singapore noodles OK but nothing special. Spicy crispy chicken was acceptable - bit too sweet. The Beef with ginger and spring onions and the "House special" Wandering Dragon were tough to tell apart; boxes of grey, watery, unappetising slop that tasted similar too. Only cash taken. Won't be going back. Perhaps they had an off day?

My go-to Chinese takeaway. Nothing particularly fancy, but reliable, good food, which is always delivered on time or sooner than expected. I love the meal options where you can get two starters, a main, and rice for £10. The delivery staff are always really friendly and chatty.

We had a delivery to an unusual address. The driver managed to deliver our meal following my,"instructions" lol. The food was nice and hot and tasted amazing. The best we've had in a long time. Would highly recommend.

Can’t comment on atmosphere however the food was absolutely awful. Cold. Hard freezing chips. Curry was gelatinous and cold….also had a strange taste. Ordered through UberEats so the restaurant couldn’t be of help. Spoke to Preedy / Prudy on the phone. Will never order from here again. £70 for bin fuel and when 1 week post partum and just wanting something ‘fun’ to give my kids and family while I don’t feel 100%, this has utterly taken the mick.

No stars given for atmosphere cos it was a takeaway by Just Eat - would have left a review on there but can't find where to do it. Deliveroo is easier to do this. But my goodness!! Best chinese we have ever had and that includes from when we lived in New York😃!! Chicken in satay with a proper peanut sauce!! Duck in a plum sauce that I couldn't make better myself and a sweet and sour pork in a sauce that wasn't just an orange gloop but proper sweet and sour with peppers carrot and crispy pork. Amazing!!!

Had a Chinese meal from Harbour city on Saturday night ,and I have to say it’s the worst meal I’ve had in years. Poor quality products in it,curry was bland and taste less ,spring rolls have changed, poor spare ribs not good value small portions and sweet and sour chicken awfuli could go on and on. After years of using it and all of my family over the years ,we will not be back and will take our business elsewhere . Such a shame as we always had good food from there ! prices up quality down 👎 No ulterior motive whatsoever nothing to gain at all !! I don’t run a Chinese takeaway, but I know good food this was not and a honest opinion !!
