Sunar Gow in South Derbyshire

Excellent service and good as always!

Great quality definitely ordering again

Fantastic food, delivered quick and piping hot.

was early and welcomed! food was good as always!

Great food, hot when delivered and delivered on time

Amazing food once again, never had a bad meal from here - dogs were very happy too, thank you so much, so sweet ☺️

Amazing food great service highly recommend

Very disappointing experience, my dish was ok but my family didn’t enjoy theirs. One waiter came over and asked if everything was alright to which we said “it’s not great”, he just laughed and walked off - awful response and left us with no choice other than to eat the food. What did they expect us to do after that response, pay for the food and not eat any of it? At the end of the meal another waiter came over and asked how everything was, we expressed again it wasn’t particularly good hoping this waiter would at least be trained in hospitality but again they just laughed, made a sarcastic response about “enjoying bland food” and walked off laughing. Not really sure what choice we had, most restaurants would ask for feedback on how they could improve and at least offer an apology. I can see, as predicted, they have replied with something equally as dismissive, arrogant and sarcastic - all I’d say to anyone thinking about dining here is read all the negative reviews first - they all echo a similar narrative over quite an extensive timeframe.

Went there with my wife and kids very nice food i have to say. The starter chicken 65 was something else. Curry was serves on tawa and the best keema nan I have had in ages. Cocktail blue lagoon was really nice. Very nice and warm also.

Very nice inside and the was spot on, would definitely come here again 👍👍👍

Worst curry I've had, probably ever! even supermarket curries are tastier The food was incredibly bland not even remotely authentic (I am of Indian heritage myself, so know of what I speak) When the waiter asked how was it and I replied honestly, instead of apology he said "you must like bland food" he never even looked at the half eaten dishes my wife and I left! All in all never going back there and would not recommend to anyone Just read the reply and my god talk about gaslighting! I don't know if the other reviews are genuine but the reply bears no resemblance to our actual experience I will say no more but will not be recommending to my friends and colleagues and will NEVER go there again

Absolutely amazing food went there with my friends, the only problems my friends had was that there was no alcohol i don't drink so I didn't care.(theres a pub just down the road)My friends and me enjoyed the food the service was amazing. Very nice decoration inside.

Always order from here. Never disappoints.

Great service and good as always

Lovely meal as always. Delivered hot and exactly as ordered

Missing mango chutney again. We ordered 2 and none came

Excellent as always. Best Indian meals we’ve ever had !!

Lovely forward as per usual, and was treated to a piece of homemade milk cake - it was delicious; thanks Haz

Exquisite. No other words necessary.

Food did not arrive at all!!!!!

Food was good as usual. Love this place.

Best curry I have had in a long while. All was superb and delivery at the time requested. Highly recommend.

Just had the Chicken Pathia takeaway !!! it was outstanding, called to thank the chef, not many times I've done that it my life !!! Staff great as well, very friendly and helpful. Thank you. Brian

Very disappointed with this visit. We were not told there was no license for alcohol, when I asked about meals if they were hot, they just walked away. Then wrong meal brought and when questioned the waiter basically said I was lying.

Fantastic food, great presentation, superb staff and customer service, can't beat it, will definitely return.

We visited as a group in the week for the first time since refurbishment. The decor has certainly had an uplift and the restaurant has a modern and original vibe. The food was good, portions were generous and the menu has all the classics and some ingenious dishes with an Indian twist. Everything was cooked and served very promptly and the flavours were good. The presentation was exceptional, added to the upmarket ambience and was a step above your average curry house. What really made the Sunar Gow special, though, was the service and the staff: particularly Rahim and Mo. They were welcoming and friendly and went out of their way to proudly explain the meaning behind the restaurant name and ensure we had what we needed, from drinks to table space, and we were enjoying our meal. When a minor error was made with the order they were quick to waive the charge for an extra dish and even tailored an off menu request for one of our party. They were attentive without being intrusive and genuinely friendly and engaging. Overall a very pleasant experience and everything felt a bit more special than a standard curry house!

The delivery guy was extraordinary with his navigational skills and real nice. Though the app itself was frozen and did not update us on anything, he still managed to find us

Fantastic food, great flavour, perfect 🤩

Lovely food , always my go to Indian place :)

Lovely food and lots of it. Loved the Bombay Aloo and Dansak. Very friendly staff. Recommend!

Absolutely delicious best in town 😋 😀 we will definitely be ordering more

We usually have take away but it was my birthday so we thought we would eat in , I tried the jhinga anghara from,the new menu, delicious doesn’t cover it, so many flavors all very gentle and served by the two lovely gentlemen Muhib and Mukith

The food was tasty, hot, early and the portions was huge! The delivery driver was very polite too. Would definitely eat here again definitely recommended!

Food amazing as always. Delivered late today but a promotional night so was probably very busy. Usually excellent delivery time

Pilau rice was good. Pasanda was as mild as I needed. The rest was nothing to write home about unfortunately. Sorry.

We were recommended to eat here by some of my club members in Hatton, so we gave it a go for our anniversary on 19th August. We were really pleased with the food, the service, the drinks (cocktails maid by Mohib - top man) and overall had an excellent experience. Will definitely visit more often now we know how good it is.

It's just a shame there is no alcohol license but the food was incredible and they offer a good selection of alcohol free drinks. Lovely service very friendly 👌

Great tasting order, friendly service and fast preparation

Cannot fault this restaurant at all - it’s not long reopened after a full refurb and changed to a non alcohol serving restaurant ( really wasn’t an issue to any of us ) the focus is on the food quality and experience - on arrival the staff were all friendly / knowledgable and very personalable …. The decor is beautiful not a penny spared - the chef came out to discuss our likes etc and after talking to him and hearing his passion about his food and the display really was a lovely informative chat - each one of our party chose something they wouldn’t have had if the chef hadn’t come to chat. The focus really is on the food experience and we cannot fault it at all - would recommend to anyone so please spread the word - if your looking for a standard curry after a few pints then don’t waste your or their time as it’s a bit more refined but well worth a visit 👍🏻

The best chicken madras around. I've tried so many Indians and nothing compares to this one. I've not eaten in but takeaways are amazing, so only can imagine it's even better eating in. Everytime I come to fetch the takeaway the staff are so friendly. Nan breads lovely! But the main thing for me is the tasty curry with the right heat 🌶

Visited with husband and kids. We hadn't booked but that wasn't a problem. We were made to feel very welcome. The restaurant is lovely and clean. The food was delicious. There are some kids options on the menu. The staff were all lovely. Highly recommend.

We had a lovely meal, definitely recommend this place, we will be back

The food was brilliant, the service excellent but as we were the only customers there was no atmosphere.

Food was absolutely lovely, presentation, service, attentive staff 💯 So far we have dined there twice since they reopened on 23rd June. Can so far recommend the tawa, jalfrezi, dhansak, lababdar, chicken banjara, lucknow chicken tikka and the dessert caramel and biscoff milk cake. All in all an exceptional dining experience. Will certainly return.

Visited here last night after a long time away because of the refurbishment… tried three new dishes from the new menu and we were blown away… all three were excellent and the presentation was beautiful… the guys were great and explained all about the new dishes and the ingredients which we appreciated… don’t be scared to try the new dishes Haz and the team will help you out with any info… We also tried for the first time a dessert…. Milk cake wow delicious.

Ordered from here a lot & usually lovely. Never had a complain before. Tonight food was cold & poppadums were soft definitely not fresh.

Food is always brilliant, wouldn’t go anywhere else 👌🏼

This was a memorable evening. We have been dinning in so many restaurants in Birmingham, just thought go out side of Birmingham. I am glad we travelled to Derby, Sunar Gow restaurant. The food was generous portions, mocktails made by waiter Mr Gulli (blue lagoon) 💙 and strawberry moctail by Faisol was mind blowing. Very classy place, staff was friendly and the owner Haz gave us a lovely warm greeting. Loved the starter chicken 65, my King Prawn Kada, my son ate king prawn first time and he loved it. A-Z was 5 star service. Definitely will go again, highly recommended

Fantastic food as per usual. Can wait for the restaurant to open after it’s refurbished:)

I'm not normally a fan of curry, only ever tried Korma, but thought I'd give a prawn tikka a go with egg fried rice.... Ordered on just eat, came early and wow I will definitely be ordering from here again.

Absolutely gorgeous prawn tikka masala and egg fried rice

Over an hour late, curry had leaked all over everything bag, tiny pashwari naan for 4.20. No dips for poppadoms. Compared to other places in derby this was a real disappointment.

Great food friendly delivery driver thank you

We had a takeaway on Friday night, and I have to say it was one of the best Indian meals we have had, the chicken sagwala was beautiful with really fresh chicken, which is often a let down, all 4 of us really enjoyed our food, thank you. Would thoroughly recommend.

Lamb dish was excellent but the butter chicken wasn’t edible. The sauce was white and tasteless. Unlike any curry ever had.

I had a takeaway which arrived at the time I asked for it. As a single person and the minimum order is £20 I ordered mostly vegetarian that I can safely reheat. The only non veg was a keema nan which had all the meat on one half and was burnt. The onion bhaji starter was a bit flavourless and wasn’t served with a salad or yogurt mint which I’d normally have expected. The sag paneer was (for my taste) much too creamy and lacking in spinach. The tarka dhal was ok as was the vegetable bhaji, but not great.

we don't not live in town or near a main road. so to find that this indian would deliver is a great find.

Great food as per usual, got some chicken tikka for the dogs and they loved it - cannot fault this restaurant

Fantastic good as per usual, and super fast delivery. Was great talking to the driver too, very friendly and polite

Really lovely food! So much flavor to it ! Will definitely be returning

Absolutely amazing food for our birthday tea

Lovely food. Great service. Looking forward to you opening again in April after your refurb

It does take a long time to arrive but was worth it. Curry had spilled out slightly in the bag however and driver had his music quite loud when pulling into our quiet street with Baby in bed- but least ai knew hed arrived I guess 🤷‍♀️ Food was delicious as always

Another amazing dinner from the lovely team at Subaru Gow. I had the Paneer Dhansak and we also had a King Prawn Madras as mains. We also started with Chicken Chat and Onion Bhajis. Absolutely delicious meal! All delivered with care and on time.

good food and service as always from sunar

A bit expensive but another very nice meal from Sunar Gow.

Lovely Food, driver was on time. Will order again.

Most excellent place to visit, service is second to none, all the guys have a fantastic sense of humour, food is sublime, highly recommended from me 👍

Fine but cold and no sauce in the curry if I want tikka I would have ordered tikka To dry the rice and naan I ordered were pointless

Amazing food as per usual, plus it was 30mins earlier than stated - bonus ☺️

Although it arrived a little later, food was delicious and still hot when arrived!

First time ordering, and will sadly be the last. Food was piping hot and collection times were good. However, an item was left off the order and the food lacked any flavour whatsoever. Disappointing for the amount paid.

The food we received was good, but the onion bhaji's we ordered were missing, which is nearly £5 of food.

The best curry dishes I've tasted. Very nice and a variety of dishes to choose from. I've also tried the take away and dishes are the same as if you sat in the restaurant. Highly recommended plus it's local which is very good.

Food was amazing as per usual, curry’s were delicious and perfect temperature to eat at time of arrival. Will definitely be ordering again.

Excellent service and excellent food. Will use again!

Oily food, lots of spice but no flavour.

Food was as excellent as it always is.

I ordered a chicken purée starter but when I opened the foil container there was three small pieces of meat and a few slithers of onion which I can only describe as last night’s leftovers. Also the cheese naan was that fresh they forgot to bake it. Very disappointing

The Best , we have been dining here regularly for 13 years always a great experience. The food is delicious.

Absolutely great food, thank you!!

Always a good meal here. The decor is nice and modern and the staff are very friendly and deliver a premium experience at a decent price.

Always Good, thats why we order again and again.

Absolutely lovely food as per usual. We had guests over who had never eaten food from Sunar Gow; safe to say that they will be ordering from their in future

Took some friends from out of town for a meal here , and once again superb meal 👌 Roll on Christmas day 😋

Arrived incredibly quickly and piping hot

Excellent. Good value and very tasty. Plenty of it too. Definitely will order again.

Food tonight was only OK, chicken was cooked well but both curry and garlic cheese naan was bland. For the price of the food we were disappointed tonight. Sorry.

Lovely food and staff are friendly

We ordered here on their website for a collection order and we will definitely be back again as regulars. The food was cooked quickly, the quality was great and the staff were very friendly. Food is available to either dine in or take away. We haven't yet eaten in but the atmosphere seems lovely. When I collected the order I was welcomed by very friendly staff who offered me a seat and a drink whilst I waited for my order. The only downside we found was that there wasn't as much meat in the curries as we've had from other places, but this hasn't put us off visiting again as it's made up for by quality. Food tasted amazing, nice and hot when we got it home. Plenty of parking at the place as well.

Food was lovely, pther half was gutted he didn't get his poppadoms though, but defo ordering from here again 👍

I placed an order at the weekend for a family get together for my husbands birthday. Estimated time of delivery way 19:55-20:15 (we ordered at 18:45 i believe) When the curry turned up 20 minutes after the latest expected delivery time we realised we were missing a curry. I rang the restaurant and a replacement was sent out however this is not ideal, especially as it was the birthday boys curry. It was only after the missing curry arrived we realised there was another mistake with our order and we were missing a Chicken Tikka Masala that I had ordered for my young son (a Chicken Balti had been sent instead) obviously my 9 year old kicked off about this. I always enjoy the food at Sunar Gow, having even opted to spend Christmas Day at the restaurant before, however this incident has somewhat annoyed me.

Family went for our granddaughters graduation. Staff was Friendly and very efficient. Food was hot and tasty. High reccomend.

What a wonderful place will definitely be back the food is excellent and the service brilliant

Food is always good. One hundred percent recommended.

Top quality food and you get plenty for the price. Definitely worth a visit in or out.

brilliant food, quick delivery and red hot when it arrived.

Rice was missed off the order.
