Gurkha Restaurant and Bar in Forest of Dean

We have visited many times and so far not had a bad meal. The menu is not massive which I personally prefer and the restaurant is small so the owner/chef can concentrate on the quality. Drinks are reasonably priced and service is always attentive and personal. The chicken Tom Yum soup starter is always brilliant, full of lemongrass, lime leaves, galangal and chillies, an absolute treat. The beef massaman curry is spectacular however pre book it in advance to make sure you get one as chef only makes a certain amount per day. Everything is fresh, tasty and good value. It isn't the place to go for dessert (only cheesecake or ice cream) but main courses and starters are so well executed it doesn't really matter to me.

Not been here was a while usually go to Folk and Spoon. I thought the food was pretty poor compared to how it used to be! Had Cantonese style chicken, was really chewy and tasteless. Prawn Toast was soggy! Think I'll stick to Folk and Spoon .

I have been using this Indian for a while and never had a problem till last night. I can honestly say it was the worst Indian I've had. The curry was completely tasteless and clearly missing some key ingredients, the Keema Naan had no meat in it, the Peswari Naan no coconut and the Mixed pickle was still frozen. There's no way I'll be returning completely dissapointed.
