Gurkha Falmouth Indian & Nepalese Cuisine in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

It’s an amazing restaurant and received a great service from David and chef Abdul made a delicious food @biryani @chicken tikka @ chicken butter masala ***** food but only one thing is it’s really bit …expensive!!!

The buffet can have better options besides chana masala everything was decent

Had the vegetarian brunch and it was lovely. Honestly didn’t really miss not having any meat dishes which is a first for me. For the price it is a steal!

Enjoyed the vegan buffet in the afternoon. Tasty food and well worth the price!

Fabulous vegan Nepalese buffet lunch for two yesterday. A really lovely meal with various dishes to choose from. We tried everything! All the dishes were very nicely flavoured, spicy but not too much chilli. We really enjoyed the meal and wouldn't hesitate to recommend going there. The price was a bargain, only £6.99 each for the buffet. The marsala spiced black tea was also excellent. The staff were polite and the restaurant itself was very pleasant. Thank you for an excellent meal 😋

Can't say much about the food waited over 10 mins for a half of beer so got fed up and left. 4 people came in after me and we're ordering food and I hadn't even got my beer. The place was not exactly busy either.

We went in a few weeks ago with a group of four. The staff were very friendly and helpful. they recommended dishes and the service was quick and the food was great. Even up to leaving, the service was excellent. I would absolutely visit again!

Great ambience, lovely hosts and great food. Highly recommended!

Absolutely great evening, there were 10 of us and all the meals came out together. The food was delicious, very tasty and one of the best meals I have had in Falmouth. The staff were really good, very attentive and engaging. We will definitely return to this wonderful restaurant. Special thanks to Dave who looked after us brilliantly.

The Gurkha has been our regular Indian/Nepalese restaurant for many many years now. We get a takeaway at least once a month usually. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The food is delicious with some great vegetarian options (such as paneer).

The buffet is fantastic value for money and absolutely delicious. All very reasonably priced and the service was faultless.

We were offered a booth with wooden seat the look of the restaurant reminded me of a mcdonalds or burger King. The was a charged of £1.10 per poppadom and charges for the dips on top which was sparingly to the point we had to limit what we used on the poppadoms incase we ran out . The onion bargie was size of a 50p and consisted of mainly flavoured breadcrumbs it was tasty but very small. We had chicken tikka as main the chicken was very over cooked tough, chewy and dry the sauce tasted more like a korma as it was very coconut tasting, when its suppose to be tomato and creamy, and it was quite watery not thick like tikka sauce ive had previously, the sauce tasted like it came out of a jar. . The rice had lots of full cloves in it and that's all we could taste, it was over powering, both me and my wife left almost of the rice and half of the chicken in the curry sauce. I was very disappointed I could do better at home. The portions was very small and quite expensive for poor food. We will not be returning. My family has been here for takeaway and they comment that it's very good food which is why we tried it. My experience is poor quality, poor atmosphere, small portions and very expensive for what it is. As mentioned very disappointing

Very friendly and welcoming. Lovely aubergine curry

Ordered for 6 people. Food clearly labelled. Extremely tasty. Would highly recommend. Delivered on time.

Visited on several occasions this year. This time Fantastic food, excellent service, so good we got a naughty second bottle of wine. Seriously lovely venue, cannot recommend enough.

We had a fabulous meal and our waiter Dave was excellent, very friendly and very helpful. Just the best

I had Indian food at quite a few places in Falmouth & Truro over the last week. Gurkha was by far the best amongst all. Most authentic Indian food + some exquisite Nepali dishes as well. I’ll remember their great taste & great service for a long time to come..

Had a Chicken Korma as my main meal. It was delicious not too sweet (like I have had before from other restaurants). Staff were pleasant/accommodating. Pity I don't live in Falmouth.

I visited in Gurkha restaurant for a dinner, very delicious food and staff was very friendly we ordered tandoori mix grill which was really good, highly recommended restaurant.

"I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant. The food was superb, best Indian food you will find in the region. The tandoori dishes are must to have and the curry dishes taste excellent and the spiciness can be adjusted to your preference. The service was excellent, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Indian cuisine in Falmouth. A must-visit!"

Pls never visit this restaurant, it's neither Nepalese or Indian... It's a garbage... am not kidding, it's garbage...Please close down this restaurant and save Indian / Nepalese cuisine from hands of morons. I believe they are serving microwaved indian food from Tesco...

Food was average, yet over priced - wasn’t a bad meal just had nicer. The service seemed great as we watched and waited for the waiter to make conversation to Europeans before we could order. There was no music, awkward atmosphere, flys everywhere and a door that didn’t close properly so was a draft.

The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was perfectly attentive. Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and anything.

Food is really good, best curry we’ve had for ages. Bullet Naan is so tasty!! Friendly staff & very clean restaurant!!

Normally papdoms are complimentary everywhere especially with 9 of us dining in. We were charged for the chillies, already not to a good start. Portions were not a great size - very small, food overall was ok but very mild, asked for chilli which again came with cost which we were unaware of. Customer service was good and the atmosphere was good too. Overall it was ok. Satisfactory

Fantastic food. Always a great choice. Service is outstanding and the chef takes time to greet customers. Well deserved 5 stars.

One of the best curries I have ever had! The food is beautiful!! No hesitation in recommending this place to anybody. Simply delicious!!!

What a lovely place, we had such a nice evening.The service was great, we loved the food and we were really happy. Thank you 😊

Really good indian and Nepalese very light and airy great tasting food and good service will visit again

What an absolute weird hybrid of Chinese and Indian food! The prawn pathia was what I can only describe as a few prawns in sweet and sour sauce and the Nepalese dish was definitely more Chinese than anything I have ever tasted. Big disappointment. Consistency and flavours do not resemble Indian food at all. Best to avoid. Many more nicer "Indians" in Falmouth...

This is by far the best Indian food I have eaten in all of England. Falmouth is lucky to have Gurkha. I prefer food to be a bit hot, and on request they made the food as spicy and hot as I like it! The Biryani, Dosa and Naan was to die for! My dad prefers milder tasting food, and he was very content with his lamb curry as that was the original signature flavour that Gurkha prepares! The staff was absolutely sweet and friendly and they ensured we have a lovely time! We ate here 3 days in a row and were never disappointed! Will definitely recommend to friends! Keep it up!

Sunday Buffet is highly recommended

Food was fantastic. Big portion size on the main and the rice and all very well priced. Popadom's, starter, main and rice + Pint £28 Great value 👏

Hardly any potato in the saag aloo, and barely any mushrooms in the mushroom rice. The Nepalese Chilli Chicken was like a Chinese-style sweet and sour dish. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like that but I found it strange. 😐

True excellence, had an out of body experience while eating the lamb madras, think I saw God himself

Excellent food, full of fresh flavours, great service.

Wow, absolutely amazing great tasting food, no sweetener added!! Lovely fresh tasting food and good service. Lots of fish variety. Will definitely come again , so happy.

Very nice place and really tasty food. Nice service, thank you

Absolutely loved my dinner here. Have ordered from here twice on delivaroo before dining in. Food is amazing and the dine in experience was even better. Could not recommend Ghurka enough

You sent me half a curry. Guessing you made a batch order and thought you'd get X amount of portions from it, but when it fills half a container - come on guys.

Excellent food, will definitely order again!

Has to be the best Indian food I’ve ever eaten. Absolutely delicious and full of flavour. Real feeling of homemade food

Excellent service and attention to detail. Very nice selection of indian food. Quite reasonable prices for the quality of food.

What a lovely Indian restaurant Food was great Well worth a visit Lovely staff Looked after very well indeed

Good choice of food not many beers too pick from but overall a good place to eat

really disappointing, chicken tikka too sweet and palak paneer rubbery, garlic naan and basmati rice was dry

Buffet night. Good food, nice and hot.

This place is a must to go to, the food is fantastic. Best Indian meal I have ever eaten.

Amazing fresh food, served by very friendly staff. Premises were lovely and clean. Overall very happy customers. Value for money is spot on!

Wonderful food cooked perfectly and the service was great. I have travelled in India and Nepal several times and this was one of the tastiest meal i have eatten.

Very poor and the Restaurant had a terrible smell of bad air fresheners , live and learn.

Very tasty food I have never eaten in this Falmouth I recommended to every one come and enjoy 5 star....

Nice Indian restaurant, but quite spicy tandoori which is unusual as most other places are very mild

Eaten here a few times now and the food has always been excellent at very good prices

I'd noticed this place walking past a few weeks ago and thankfully we had a chance to eat out. The food was tasty, fresh and perfectly cooked with lots of great flavour. I cannot recommend this place enough, this must be Falmouth's best kept secret!

Best Indian food in Cornwall! We came Twice in 5 days holiday.. highly recommend.. great food and super great service!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Been coming here for years so I was a bit worried when I saw the restaurant has moved from the nestled first floor setting to the more mainstream ground floor but there was no need. Food is just as good as it’s ever been, which is flipping delicious! Cannot recommended this place enough, if you’re in Falmouth and don’t eat here, you are missing a real treat.

Food was amazing.Customer service was on point.100% recommended

We booked this lovely restaurant on our trip to Falmouth. As we passed by, we were attracted by the delicious aroma that filled the air and the comfortable and relaxing surroundings around us. The selection of the menu is rich and varied, the speed of serving is fast, the service provided by the restaurant staff is warm and thoughtful, the dishes are delicious, the price is favorable, recommended!

Great menu, delicious food and really friendly service. One of the best curries I've had.

Hi dont normally moan but my meal tonight aweful. Dansak(madras hot) was red and no lentils. Nanbread very thin

Decent food, nice range of options. Staff were friendly but we did have to remind them to being us menus and later to bring us cutlery (food had already arrived).

Visited the Gurkha recently with family to celebrate a special birthday. We went on Sunday which is buffet menu and we all thoroughly enjoyed the choice. The service was very good and both the Chefs Raj and Abi came out to say hello and had a chat with us. It was great value for money and having just found this place we will definitely be returning soon. We were looked after by everyone and in particular Sebastian was very friendly and polite. Delicious food !!

Fantastic food. Fair prices and Friendly staff.

Excellent food, excellent service and wonderful staff. The food is beautiful and must be tried. The Sunday buffet is definitely worth trying

Not a bad curry house , friendly & attentive staff Quality of chicken slightly let down meal but nice enough

Fantastic food and fantastic service! Definitely recommend.

Amazing staff, amazing food! The momo’s are delicious. Thanks again

The food was great but the service not so good. We were shown our table and rushed to place our order. Then 3 different waiter/waitress attended our table within a space of about 5 minutes to hurry us to order. It was early in the evening, and we asked what time they were closing thinking that we had come to late. The waitress told us 1 1pm was closing so at 8:20 pm we didn't need to be hurried like we were. As if that wasn't enough, we were still eating when the waiter came over and started to clear the table and proceeded to say he would get us the bill. We told the waitress what had happened before leaving and she was very apologetic but it just ruined the experience. We most probably would not go back because of this treatment. The one star review is due to the poor service, not the standard of food!

So sorry, I don't know what happened!!!!! It should have been a 5 star rating as the food was amazing. The vegetarian choice was really impressive and the food thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely be back and would recommend to everyone.

Ordered takeaway today chicken tikka masala and what a disappointment all you could taste was salt and a buttery taste we couldn't eat it nan breads were smoothered in butter so very greasey and rice was very hard. Unfortunate as we've eaten inside before and been nice so may be a one off but very disappointed

I thought they had missed a rice order out of my order but turns out it was me... I will eat my butter chicken with bread and in silence...

Not a fan of the staircase to get up there ! Otherwise lovely food & lovely service. Thank you

Food mediocre and charged for items we did not order

Very tasty curry. Service a little slow, waited a good hour for the food, but otherwise a good evening.

We had it delivered and loved the food. Tasty, fresh and spicy, just what we wanted.

They look after me fantastic here no matter what state I'm in. I'm always polite and bubbly so are they.

Curry was quite watery , took 1.5 hours to get a takeaway with a half full restaurant

Great food and friendly service.

First time there tonight, and the food and service were superb. We will be back soon!

Food was ok place was clean, just not blown away at the quality of cooking. All in all an average Indian style restaurant. Staff friendly but not attentive enough in my opinion.

Had a brilliant meal really enjoyed it staff very helpful

Absolutely delicious food, friendly helpful staff, highly recommend :)

We ordered takeaway, the food took an hour and a half to get here, chicken was overcooked, there was hardly any meat in our dishes, it was 95% sauce.

Experience has to be taken account with what happens thr next morning. I can't even remember what we had. We had the Lamb and the chicken korma and also the monkfish curry. We also had a biranyi and garlic naan. Flavour is OK if you're someone who likes flavour. The restaurant was quite busy when we attended but they served as relatively quickly. All in all, inoffensive.

Lovely meal. Friendly efficient staff. Will definitely go again

Very excited to be back! This will always remain my favourite restaurant in the Falmouth area. Can't wait to return already.

Well what a waste of good money. Absolutely disgusting slop. Never again. The cartons for the main meal were half full, so was one of the rice dishes. The side dish I ordered which was supposed to be chilli paneer was a runny mess of slop, it didn't even look or taste like a chilli paneer. Don't eat from there. You might as well put your money down the drain.

Probably the best Indian food I’ve ever had. The service was amazing, food was tasty, just the right amount of spice and not too expensive! Definitely worth eating here. Choose collection and you you can pick up once ready!

10/10 recommend to everyone. I love Gurkha! I'm not much of a fast food person but it's the only place I go to, the food is always awesome and I try to get something different every time. The staff are super friendly and talkative

Lovely food and amazing service, cant recommend enough.

Excellent place to have your dinner

Thank you my friends. Enjoyed my meal very much! Samosa, chilli paneer, saag aloo, Chana masala, paneer makhani, daal makhani, pilau rice, garlic naan, bullet naan, cheese naan, paratha.

Staff was very good service was very good the food was excellent we will be back again

Absolutely fantastic food really enjoyed our 1st anniversary meal

Utter rubbish. It's such a shame when I eat so called Asian food in UK. Honestly a 1.89 microwave meal from Aldi is far superior to this junk and it was exorbitant for a meal of stewed meat and a few pickles. Really truly awful. Go anywhere else

Got food poisoning from a meat dish I had here which really ruined the next day of our holiday- wouldn't recommend

My wife enjoyed the chicken chow chow so much she said it's the best food she'd ever tasted!! Staff were very attentive and efficient and reasonably priced 5 stars from me, well done you lot

Excellent Menu and very authentic. The restaurant was buzzing when we visited. The smells were amazing - definitely plan to go again. Fancy trying the Eat all you can Buffet held every Sunday evening 😉

Great value and some of the best tandoor chicken I've had. Minor error in my order which was rectified and overcompensated for with no fuss. The best Indian restaurant in Falmouth.
