We went as a group of friends and pre-booked, we were seated and served quickly. Food was nice and we were happy with what we ordered. However on getting the bill we were clearly overcharged, we questioned the bill and asked for a breakdown, this was not given and another bill just slapped on the counter but this time £50 less! No apology until we grumbled about the rudeness and were just told they had given us the wrong bill. We won’t return

I have been with family and friends twice in May The food was 👍 The staff were very attentive and we didn't have to wait long for the food!The starters we had was seekh kebab,karahi kebab, and mixed kebab. The main course was Jelfrezi chicken which was a little hot for one of my friends, but after taking the green chillies out it was fine. I had lamb Achari which is my favourite and was also the best I have had and I am one that's been to a lot of Asian restaurants. My other friend ordered mixed grill karat. We all thought it was great value for money. Thank you gourmet keep up the good work and we will be back soon.

On arrival the 6 of us were asked to sit in the waiting area, but as time passed it became apparent there was no table available for us (we had booked), we asked on 4 occasions if there was a problem and was told no just 2 seconds more wait. After 45 minutes waiting I finally got an answer that they had over booked the restaurant and there wasn’t a table for us. If they had just explained that in the first place we could have decided what to do, but they just left us sat there with no explanation or apology, very rude staff, which is a shame because we go here a lot and the food is always delicious. I understand there can be mix ups with bookings, but just explain to your customers especially if you are asked the question!!

Unable to offer a single complete starter or any curry at all despite claiming to have ‘vegan options’ Only starter I could have was the Mushroom puree without the puree- basically just sliced mushrooms and garlic. They couldn’t do me a single curry as they use one base mix containing ghee for every curry. They offered me scampi and chips though which again completely helps you to understand they have NO IDEA what vegans avoid. I’ve eaten here many times before and been assured that the vegetable bhuna has no milk in it but this time he brought me the allergy menu (dated 2016) so I could check which starter I could have and I noticed the bhuna states milk. At first I was assured again that it was fine and didn’t have milk in but then they must have checked with the kitchen. It was embarrassing, and a waste of money, to go to the Indian and end up with chips (which tasted fishy by the way so I suspect they were fried in the scampi fryer) I have given an average rather than a bad rating purely due to acknowledging that the other members of the family had good meals, service is good and the staff pleasant. However for vegans it gets a ‘terrible’ rating from me. It’s unfortunate that we will now need to find a new Indian restaurant that can cater for all of us.

8 of us visited for a birthday meal. I'm pleased I prebooked the day before as it was packed. The special menu was back on, we all chose from the regular menu. The service may have been a little slow but the food was worth waiting for. The staff may not have been particularly chatty but they attended to our needs as required and were polite. We were provided with our own 'doggy bag' in which to take home our leftovers. I cannot find fault at all and will not hesitate in returning.

After trying an out of town restaurant and walking out due to how long things were taking, we called the gourmet on exit and asked if we could have a table in 30 mins to which they said yes. After arriving at the place we should have gone to all along we was greeted with the friendly staff, taken straight to our table and had drinks promptly. Food was served fresh and quickly as always despite being at full capacity. Fantastic food as always and lesson learned. If its not broke, don't fix it. Will certainly be returning again!

So, we ordered a takeout curry, not ordered here since before covid now. My sister pre warned me that she also had a bad meal here, however i disagreed and said id always enjoyed my meals at gourmet. I ordered a chicken tikka masala, pilau rice, garlic naan and poppadoms. My curry tasted awful, the chicken tasted weird and dry. Nothing like ive ever tastes before for a curry. My partner ordered a chicken achari curry, which was unbelievably sweet compared to all other local indians we have tried the same dish. He also complained of dry tasting chicken. The rice was fine, you cant really go wrong with that part. The poppadoms tasted stale, as if theyve been left out for days. Overall, we usually would have both demolished an indian takeaway as we dont normally eat out often and both have big appetite. However, we kept trying to eat this meal and the more we got into it, the worse it was tasting. It was very disappointing, only to be told on the phone by the staff “thats how we cook it” and “you’ve taken the food now so we cant do anything”. The man was even arguing with me, insinuating i was lying. Ive never had a bad word to say about this indian before covid. I used to go here all the time to eat. However it appears it has gone downhill in comparison to other local indians. The customer service just topped it off, we will not be eating here again and advising all relatives/friends to choose elsewhere. Zeera spice is the place to go or mumbai lounge in Brigg!!

Food wasn’t up to scratch, wasn’t even ok to eat and get through it. Chicken was dry and popperdoms were stale. Chicken pokora was really dry and soft, nothing seemed cooked well. Gave feedback back to the restaurant, they wasn’t having any of it. The man behind from the phone was patronising and laughed off all complaints. Would not recommend if you’re looking for something to treat yourself.

Visited here twice in the last couple of weeks following the closure of our regular curry house.On both occasions the quality of the food has been superb. Staff didn't engage a great deal on our first visit, but we thought they were quiet rather than rude. Much better on our second visit.A sign of its quality and popularity is the fact that we had to wait for a table on a midweek evening.The Gourmet is now our new regular haunt!

A lot of people rave about this place but I cannot see why. The service was relatively slow as the staff were far more keen on takeaway orders than customers in the restaurant. The portion sizes for starters and mains were alarmingly small and I felt that for the prices charged especially for Yorks/Lincs area were high. Sadly not a great experience at all.

The restaurant is an absolute hidden gem.Great decor with polite and professional service from the staff.Most importantly the food is superb.Monday to Thursday a smaller value menu is available and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of choice offered.For £10.95 you can purchase 3 courses of a starter, main course and either a naan bread or rice. You can of course pay extra if you wish to have rice and a naan. I ordered a Reshmi Kebab, Murgh Massalla, a Keema Naan and Pilau Rice.I incorrectly assumed that the portions would be smaller than from the main menu as I was presented with a very generous helping of Massalla. The food was cooked perfectly and arrived promptly after being ordered.I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to dining there again very soon.Making a reservation is advised especially for weekends.Give this place a try if you have never been as you will not be disappointed.

Nice enough atmosphere, pleasant enough staff. The chapatis were the best bit of the meal. The dall chana starter was dumped on top of what looked like a whole pot of yoghurt, very odd. The vegetable paneer was unremarkable. No spiciness, no heat. The tarka dall was tarka dull, again no real taste or seasoning to it. Not entirely sure how it has won some sort of best restaurant award, maybe the judges don't get out much. At least it's not actually nasty.

The Gourmet has become our local Indian in recent months. We normally go during the week when it is three courses for £11.95. We enjoy the lamb kebabs, samosa and the chicken pakoras for starters. The Balti, pathia and dopiaza for curries and the pilau rice and garlic nan for side dishes. They have an excellent range of wines on offer whether you want red, rose or sparkling. The meal comes to just over £40, which is great value and the staff are very friendly and treat regulars well.

We ate at the Gourmet in a group of 8 for a friends birthday on the recommendation of one of the couples in our group who had eaten there a couple of weeks earlier. Some reviews have commented on poor service but I must say the service we received all night was excellent. Staff were courteous, efficient and very friendly. The food was OK but for me, it was a little bland. About half of us are regular curry eaters and that half all thought the medium spiced dishes were very lightly spiced to the point where they were struggling to be called a curry. The couple who recommended the restaurant are not too keen on spicy food and they loved it. One of them even commented on how hot his meal was. All about taste. If you want mild spiced but good tasting food and good service, this may be a place for you. If you want something a little more authentic with a bit of a kick, maybe this is not the ideal place to go.

Have used this Indian many times but our visit last night will make us think twice about going back. There was a large group of men in who were loud, foul mouthed and drinking plenty. Don't get me wrong we all like a night out but the atmosphere last night was uncomfortable. Asked a waiter if he would ask the group to moderate the language, don't know if he did but it made no difference. Couldn't wait to get out the place, another waiter asked if we were in a rush, when I explained again he said ' you should have spoken to me' - are you all deaf? By this time the language was obscene.Obviously our £25 bill couldn't compete with the £100's being chalked up by this large group! Gourmet, all your diners deserve your respect and should enjoy their dining experience not just the ones with deep pockets. Shame on you for not having the back bone to deal with this situation.

Visited on Friday evening with a group of friends. The service was great as always, and the food was delicious. Had our favourite starter which is Chicken Chat. My partner then had Chicken Bhuna (which he usually does), but I chose to try something different this time. I had Chicken Kashmiri Massala, and it was gorgeous. I only like mild curry and this was perfect. Plenty of chicken with a mixture of fruits, mixed nuts and cream. We also shared a portion of chips and pilau rice, and there was more than enough. Will look forward to our next visit

We have used this restaurant since it opened. Never had an issue before and always recommend. After tonight though this will be the last time. Food was cold due to an issue with their card machine not working having to wait 20 mins for them to get it working. When asking them to replace the starter and chips the manager flat out refused and basically did not care. Said he was very happy to lose our custom. Gob smacked to say the least especially how often we have used them. Remember gourmet you are only as good as your last job. There are plenty of other Indian restaurants in Scunthorpe, we now look forward to finding another. A lesson on customer service and how to retain customers may be wise.... I will point out up until this visit food had been spot on but after the attitude of the manager, out of principle I will never buy from here again.

Definitely recommend to everyone. Just like to add I now know why you are the best curry house in Grimsby and Scunthorpe well done gourmet keep up the excellent work

My husband and I had a pleasant evening at The Gourmet. It has a calm and inviting atmosphere with excellent service and always serves delicious food at reasonable prices. An improvement that could be made however is to replace the current crockery - some of the plates are starting to look a bit worse for wear.

We visited on a Tuesday night and were pleasantly surprisede to see it so busy.. I chose from the midweek menu which was £9.95 for a starter, main and side dish. Most dishes are on here as well as chef's specials so there's plenty of choice. The chicken bhuna was perfect as were the chicken tikka stater and and aloogobi. Highly recommended, especially between Sunday and Thursday

We visit here fairly regularly and are never disappointed. The service is always prompt and the staff very helpful. The standard of food is excellent and we usually have a bottle of wine which is reasonably priced. We would also like to offer them our congratulations on winning the Scunthorpe Telegraph Restaurant of the Year, well deserved!

My family and I regularly visit this Indian and also use it for takeaways. Parking is sometimes difficult on busier days but well worth a visit! Food is great and lots of choice. I am vegetarian and there is lots of veggie options and all delicious. Some members of staff I do feel come across like they don't want to be there, but equally others are great. Would definitely recommend!

I'm amazed this place gets such a high rating. Food was average certainly not the best I've had. Service was half hearted, impression from staff was as if on autopilot, making me feel I should not be asking too much.THE WORST BIT, "CLEAN" PLATES CAKED IN BROWN GREASE, visible all round but mainly on the underside of our plates. EVERY plate was the same. I asked for a clean plate, only for it to be half heartedly replaced with one just as bad! as he walked off before I could tell him so.If the restaurant reads this before you visit they may well buck their ideas up. But please check, you will know what I mean instantly. There are indian restaurants better than this and not to far away either. I shall not be going back for a while.

Eaten at this restaurant quite a few times,has always been first class food and friendly , efficient staff until our visit last night,food was as good as always but our meal was spoiled by a' family ' with lots of young children,the adults didn't control their children let them roam about in the restaurant, laying on the floor and playing about with the food trolley,we think the staff should have had a word with them as there were plenty of other diners in the restaurant

Hasina would get 5 gold stars if I could. It's food is restaurant quality and better than the local ones for flavour and taste. Lovely staff and talented chefs. I always look forward to my faves, Chicken Shashlick Karahi, Dansak and Pathia. I have tried almost everything on the menu and it's all bloody brilliant!
