Gurkha Spicy in Carlisle

Great food wish I found them months ago

Very happy with our experience here. Lovely staff who are happy to accommodate requests and good portions of tasty, good quality food. Biryani was especially good, will try one of their Nepalese dishes next time.

Lived in Carlisle for nearly 9 years and only heard good things about this place so decided to try. Don't know why we waited so long. The set meals are so well priced for what you get. Everything we had was absolutely gorgeous. The bits of chicken in the curries are absolutely huge and so tender, will definitely be ordering again soon.

Best takeaway in Carlisle by far. Massive portions, extensive menu to choose from, and clearly a business that knows its stuff. Exceptionally tasty food at a very decent price, and arrives quickly despite the enormous menu to choose from. We order the bunker meal deal for two, which is the image attached (couldn't fit in the extra poppadoms and garlic naan in the photo!) Cannot recommend enough.

Absolute Top Class Nepalese Food.

On the 21st of April ordered the Gurkha Chillies, it was awful tasteless leftovers with very large amount of uncooked chillies ( at least 10 ) to mask the stale bad taste. I am 71 years old and had many curries here and abroad none tested as dreadful as the Gurkha Spicy of Carlisle. I do not recommend this take away to anyone.

Food very testy, and authentic Nepali food test. Really recommended.

Perfectly happy with the food very disappointed with the mafia type people that arrived and ordered and threatened the staff still professional even though that happened

Ordered two chicken dansak for tea last night. Absolutely delicious! It was on the Monday to Thursday £6.95 special. I requested vindaloo hot and less oil... one of the very best curries that I have eaten.

Delivery took 45 min ⭐️ The food was nice and warm ⭐️ The food was very tasty ⭐️ Large portions ⭐️ The order was correct ⭐️

I ordered online 2 starters 2 mains, 2 rice, with poppadoms and a nan bread for delivery, The delivery time was given as 50 minutes, I phoned up after over an hour to ge told that the good was ready but they were waiting on their driver. The food actually arrived after another 40 minutes. It was delivered in a paper bag wrapped up In a plastic carrier bag. Needless to say it was luke warm at best and gadvto be reheated. After getting it all sorted, the onion bhagie was a congealed mass of crap, the chicken had no flavour whatsoever. I'll never use them again and advise everyone reading this to heed it.

Absolutely delicious food. Good value for money.Lovely people. We never go anywhere else.

Had a curry the other night and was amazing food Is first class and would definitely recommend

Thankyou Ghurka Spicy for an outstanding takeaway on New Year's Eve, it was for five of us it was so delicious and everything was freshly cooked to order, so tasty, we didn't wait long for our order to be delivered on what would be a busy night for you, and it was delivered by a friendly driver, all your staff are a credit to you, thanks again and Happy New Year to you all 🎉

Carnt fault the food always tasty and good service.

Always a great meal and happy and great customer service

Top quality food as always with

Ordered food delivery was on time and obviously mouth watering meals, simply the best in Carlisle.

We always use Gurkha for our family curry treat. It's always delicious, great value for money and delivery is always punctual.

Gorgeous food here ,fast delivery also would highly recommend

excellent value and the best food in carlisle

Would never buy an Indian from anywhere else but Gurkha Spicy, it was my mothers favourite Indian takeaway until she passed away she loved their chicken tikka masala, even when started finding it hard to swallow they gave us extra sauce so we could liquidise it so she could still have it, going over and above for their customers is outstanding, couldn’t fault this takeaway in any way shape or form, food is always fab & nice and hot, large portions well worth every penny, delivery is quick, drivers are always polite and are a credit to the takeaway. 5 * all the way start to finish,

Best Indian takeaway in Carlisle. Can’t fault it what so ever. Portion sizes are mega

Had quite a few meals from here and always been top quality and delicious

Used a number of times, cannot fault the delivery service or quality of food. Very good value for money.

Food from here was amazing delicious hot well recommended food curry house .

Was a pukka experience, lovely staff, awesome decor inside 10/10 will scran again

delicious meal with more varieties ....

Worth eating as far my experience it is one of the best takeaway for indian food lovers.

Staff are brilliant. Food is beautiful and always hot and well packaged. Easily the best in the town!!

The naan bread was soaking wet, and poppadoms were smashed. Really put me off when I got a piece of naan bread and had to wash my hands.

Whenever I am in Carlisle,I get my Indian takeaway from here only As I am vegetarian only,so I am getting lots of variety here

Food was anazing, 3 of us, 3 different curries, flavours were fantastic. Highly recommend.

I am a regular Gurkha Spicy I like all the food they make I have different order every time I'll give it five stars it's the best you can have it hot chili hot they make the best Tandoori chicken I usually get a full one and I can eat it all never share my meals with anyone you do want to try it in Carlisle thank you hope you enjoy 😍

Ordered food from the delivery app Just Eat. The food was really good in taste except for the Seekh kebab (which was included in the Gurkha platter ) being too salty. Gurkha platter was sufficient for two( includes 2 piece fried momos, 2 piece chicken tikka, 2 piece lamb tikka , 2 piece fried wings, 2 piece fish tikka, 1 long piece Seekh kebab ). Special fried rice and Pineapple rice was a different experience to the taste buds from the ordinary styles available. Paneer masala was great as well. Really great for money spent. Suggestion : They could reduce the amount of oil in their Rice dishes.

One of the best Nepalese and Indian takeaway restaurants in Carlisle is Gurkha spicy. On time delivery and hot food. Definitely recommend friends and family.

Top quality of Indian and Nepalese food in Carlisle only at Gurkha spicy. Friendly staff and helpful.definitely recommend friends and family.

£48.10 on an order and left a rice off when I rang in they said we never ordered it but the price said we did. Food all tastes the same. She cannot understand you and the hole experience was hard work. I read the order back several times. She then kept saying the wrong address despite keep giving the post code! AVOID!!!!!!!! As you can see by there reply they lie, we did not get anything extra. They sent the wrong nan breads to. No rice! Poor food! Avoid and use others in Carlisle. Worst service and food ever! Saying I going to leave a review is NOT threatening behaviour. As a business accept your wrongs and improve not lie to justify poor food and service! I never leave reviews but after the lies you said on the phone others need to be aware of your lies and poor service. I would not buy from you again. Shocking priced food poor quality.

Delivery. Awful prawn(shrimp) balti, full of sugar, granules included, inedible. Chips(french fries) lukewarm and cardboard like. The rogan josh was OK though.

Best gurkha chilly chicken i have tried and the portion size was big enough 🥰😘❣️❤️❤️

Absolutely mouth watering dishes as curry and one of the best fastest service ive seen ever in my life at Carlisle.

We visited this place on a chance and based on reviews as we were travelling through at night and needed somewhere to eat. Well, this is a little gem as far as takeaway goes. Although there is a small room for dining in which we did, this place looks to cater for takeout. The food is very tasty and delicious with good portions. I had the Bao Bao buns with pork and the Gurkha burger with no cheese. Great value for money.

One of the best curries I’ve had in a while, the portions are quite generous, it’s super flavourful and you get so many huge chunks of meat with your curry. Definitely well worth the price.

The staff was really good and the food was fantastic for the value of the money and my food was bang on time will recommend this takeaway

Nepalese genuine food and Gurkha’s family back ground so proud to know them as a family business will recommend xx

Gurkha chilli chicken was full of flavor for someone like me who loves a bit spicy on food enjoyed my meal fully last night 🤤 Definitely ordering my next meal from Gurkha Spicy whenever I crave for curry 🍛

We had dinner last night. Chicken tikka masala, Gurkhali chicken and naan is really amazing, we really loved it. Best Takeaway in Carlisle. 👌

Asked for a special request, a paneer gurkha bullet. It was heaven, definitely be getting that again.

Food great especially the gurka bullet

Food was OK (very salty) but had to go to bank for cash as they don't have a card machine

The food was exceptionally good. What a pleasant surprise.

Love getting a curry from this takeway currys spot on i highly recommrnd

I ordered my meals from the Gurkha Spicy is a very good takeaway Indian style of cooking and and Gurkha cooking too and all the meal you see are all very good delivery service is good to amir is always hot and warm I have no complaints I only used Gurkha spice

Had prawns Puri, chicken tikka masala and mushroom rice ,best food ever I had since long time .

Had vegetarian food , one of the best Nepalese food we had since we moved in Carlisle .

Best Indian takeaway in Carlisle hands down. Always consistent in quality, fresh ingredients and very tasty! Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Everything lovely quality ingredients freshly made easily best takeaway in Carlisle

Hi.first time eating here,it was lovely and staff polite,were be back.yummmm

As always the food was fantastic. The only thing that really spoiled it was a £8 delivery charge!! We live on the outskirts of cumwhinton, 2.9 miles from the takeaway.

The best Indian I’ve ever had in Carlisle lovely staff very friendly and even when mistakes are made they are able to work round them easily and the chicken tikka masala amazing

Very tasty, quality ingredients, freshly made. Reasonable prices and good delivery time. Lots of choice for all the family. Recommend the Gurkhali Chicken, compliments to the chef and thanks for a lovely dinner.

Great food, great service using the app. Had 3 dishes in the last month, chicken madras, chicken bhuna, chicken chilli naga ( but asked for not as spicy) all 3 brilliant. Loads of fresh tender chicken, very tasty sauces. Easy parking over the road 20 metres away

Just had chicken chilli naga, fantastic dish, fresh, tasty, asked for it not too spicy and adjusted by staff, great service, great meal

This place has gone down hill, very sad really as this used to be our go to curry place. Our last meal was luke warm, we had to reheat it in the microwave! 6 chunks of chicken in the chicken tikka masala, 1cm of oil floating on top of the Aloo dum. Poppadoms smashed to bits. As I said before, this place has gone downhill. They don't reply to complaints. Better curry spots in Carlisle. UPDATE.... still 6 small chunks of chicken swamped in a tasteless sauce. And now £11.95!!!!! Absolute rip off.

Amazing food, we took the deal for 2 persons and we couldn't finish it. Everything tasted amazing, there was a good amount of chicken in the curries. Cash only is is a bit impractical

The best curry about love the Gurkha chilli chicken and everest lamb curry 10/10 .

Excellent food, great value and large portions.

Spent £20 & got a burnt on onside naan & raw on the other, dansak with no pineapple & the grease off the onion bhajis had come through the carton and the paper was drenched in grease, absolutely disgusting food, all but the salad & rice was inedible, closed now, but ill be ringing tomorrow.

Awesome environment with delicious food. If you want to taste real nepali and indian cuisine, do visit Gurkha Spicy.

Didn't met my expectation.I'm a frequent traveller to India, had opportunity to taste many of the delicious North Indian and South Indian Dishes.Same taste you can find in few of the Indian restaurants at Manchester and London, not in any of these Indian named restaurants in Carlisle.

Used to order from here fairly regularly. Sadly our most recent delivery wasn't as good as it used to be. I wonder if, rather than raise their prices to cope with the cost of living, they have lowered their quality.

We use Gurkha Spicy reasonably regularly and the food is always lovely. Additionally, the staff are all very pleasant and friendly. I would thoroughly recommend!

Once again, a fantastic Nepalese meal.

Absolutely love the food from here. I’ve recommended it to everyone 😊

One of the best places in Carlisle for a curry made fresh. Their app is easy to use and the preparation of the food is quick and efficient 👍

Good food, I'll definitely visit again.

Best home delivery I've had.food is really tasty, good portions

Absolutely the best Nepalese/traditional Indian takeaway in Carlisle by far.. tandoori tikka chicken is the best I've ever had😋😋.. Highly recommended 👌😋😋

My Brother recommended Gurkha Spicy as he has had some takeaways from there a few times. We telephoned our order and it was taken by a very helpful lady and arranged delivery. The meal we had was very very good, big portions and full of flavour, we couldn’t eat it all so the leftovers were put in the freezer for another day. Exceptional.

My mom and I have ordered from Gurkha Spicy a few times and each time the quality if the food and service has been amazing! Truly tasty dishes of top quality care that goes into making the food taste amazing as well as packaging with care, we always receive the food hot and ready to eat, as well as the driver Allan I had tonight his service was excellent, such a kind smile with delivery and so polite we will definitely continue to order in the future.

Meal arrived late and cold, had to reheat it in the microwave. Aloo dum was swimming in oil, poppadoms smashed to bits, 6 bits of chicken in the tikka masala. If I wanted a substandard microwave meal, I'd have gone to asda.

Very tasty 😋 ,like home made food. we love it,thank you

Great takeaway last night was very tasty and food was nice and hot with great portions at a great price highly recommend it to others

What has happened to Gurkha Spicy? We always order the set meal for two, but they’ve changed the menu, portion sizes are a lot smaller and sad to say the meal we had tonight was not up to their usual standard. Lamb was tough, bargees were undercooked and the naan bread was definitely overcooked. On the plus side it was delivered on time.

Only two words to describe Gurkha spice, excellent and delicious

Closed early! Online says open til 11pm. Called by at 10pm and they were closed!!

Had to wait. But food was very good.

I live in London, but I travel to Carlisle to eat their food! The food is simply delicious and very good value for money. Best Nepalese restaurant in UK!!!

Food is just fantastic, great quality and great portions too. Speedy delivery. Will definitely use again and highly recommend. Thanks guys :}

Extensive menu with lots of different choices to your standard Indian takeaway. Quality of food excellent, great value for money and on time delivery

I use this place anytime I'm staying in the area and I have never had a bad meal. I highly recommend you get down and try it out for yourself.

Enjoyed the food and loved the friendly service. Would definitely recommend to try the Gurkha Spicy.

Fantastic food & friendly staff.

Great food and absolute heroes... Warriors.

Decent size portions loads of meat in each dish. The meal deal for one is enough for two days and the gurkha spice dish is so nice.

When working away from home its not very often you get food of this quality so when you get Great food, and really reasonably priced food with nice staff serving you tell people, well done to you all really enjoyed my meal hope to see you again soon

Always great food from this takeaway. Great choice and always super fresh! Definitely recommend if you are in the area, spice levels and dishes to suit all tastes.

First del tonite. 2 hour wait.phoned them and not interested.frozen chips. Salad was just lettuce. No mango as ordered. House curry ok. Wife's veg biriyani very good. Promised poppadoms for wait.im still waitingfor them.ghurka meat platter sent,not ghurka mixed platter as ordered. Soggy naans. All in all, average. Wife said we give them another go cos she liked biriyani. Looking at reviews , i expect an automated reply to my review. Lazy if that happens. Best bit. Excellent polite delivery driver. Reply was given to my post. Chips frozen do not travel well. Poppadoms were wrote on receipt. Not delivered.salad was just lettuce.no mango chutney. No onion bhaji.wrong platter sent. We're on your website does it say 90 mins on a saturday. 2 hours delivery. And still the wife insists we give you another try. And ya naans were soggy, wid no garlic as ordered.

Very disappointed, 2 chicken kormas absolutely terrible. Very very sloppy chicken pink, cold chips and rice and under cooked naan breads doughy. Plate full of watery sauce absolutely terrible.

Wow what a takeaway. Easy the best one I've had in the north west. Very friendly staff and quick service. The food is spot on, been there twice now and working my way through the menu. Can't wait to go there again !
