The Garlic in Gloucester

First time ordering. The starters and popadoms were delicious. Disappointed with amount of onion salad for price per portion, expected more compared to local competitors. Pleased to see more popadoms than we asked for as well. This is always a great surprise. The chicken pakoras were delicious and tasted fresh. We went with our go-to mains. These were okay. Again tasted fresh and would even go as far to say home cooked rather than a typical take away meal. Thank you for the lovely meal.

I’ve ordered from here a few times and every time it’s been late… won’t be using them again

The lamb was very tough! But the flavour was lovely.

Food was cold, chips were inedible due to be cold. Chicken korma was spicy which it’s not meant to be. Overall horrible

30 minutes later but restaurant explained it was due to road closure. Food was amazing and hot when arrived - thank you!

Fantastic food best Indian I have had in a long time

Excellent as always. Arrived hot and was just delicious! Thank you

Great food, lovely and hot. Have ordered before and will continue to do so.

Excellent customer service very polite and friendly along with excellent quality food all round 5 stars...

the food was disgusting I wouldn't ever order from them again

Delivered hot and very tasty, will definitely continue to use.

Brilliant food and exactly what we wanted

Lovely food and service was excellent. Absolutely highly recommend going.

Awesome takeaway, food always piping hot, delivery is early, never had any problem, great value, staff very friendly, by far the best 10/10

Really disappointed with the food from the starters to the mains.we ordered £120 of food the chicken tikka starter was nothing like ever seen in all the years of eating curry it had a small bit of none coloured seasoning on which was tasteless like normal chicken to eat realky.The main masala again was same chicken tasteless and the other dishes the same to be honest would of asked for refund and collect but couldn’t be bothered with the hassle but at least dogs enjoyed it later.Very disappointed

The food tasted lovely again. However, Unfortunately two of the meals were squashed and had seeped out onto the other boxes, and the lid from one of the sauces had come off in transit. Messy bag and contents.

Very good food, some of the best I have eaten in sometime.

Food is excellent. Cooked beautifully and spiced as requested. Delicious. Staff at the restaurant are friendly, welcoming and polite. Waiting area is nicely furnished, pleasant and spotlessly clean. Very good 👍

Always my go to, good food and good service!

korma it was spicy! I am not allowed spicy due my medical reason. Really should be need remove spicy on korma, you could risk someone life. It waste my money cost me £35 for that! Never again to order. Disappointed 😭

Got a call and threats from the driver!!

Superb curry and good quality for your birthday

This was the 1st time we have ordered from The Garlic Indian takeout and we will definitely 💯 order again. Highly recommend. Our food was delicious, it was fresh and super tasty. Customer service was excellent.

Quick delivery, food was amazing and lots of it. Would definitely order from them again.

Excellent food. Lovely staff. Would recommend

Lovely food but 30 minutes late

My korma had 4 pieces of chicken... the pilau wasn't pilau the rest was pretty good. Well spiced.

Unfortunately the food that was delivered was not what I ordered. It did spoil our night because we were celebrating a special occasion

First time visit, food was very nice. Thank you.

Love the meat thali, lamb passanda is amazing everytime!!

I had lamb tikka korma I’m afraid to say my lamb was very tough that I couldn’t eat it , very disappointed as I have always had a lovely meal from you with no complaints .

Wow. This Indian takeaway is absolutely phenomenal. The rice is absolutely spot on, all individual pieces with fantastic flavour. The curry's on offer are in a wide variation and are super flavourful and delicious. The naan bread served are full to the brim. The peshwari naan had the filling cramed to the top of the bread, and the cheese naan was bursting holes of warm, melted, and super stringy cheese. The best Indian takeaway in Gloucester, no doubt about it.

Food was fantastic, on time and piping hot. Awesome thank you!

Best curry in Gloucester. Used to eat in Polash, but they don’t value their customer. Tried Garlic first time tonight - 5* service, 5*food, will be back!!!!!

Top curry. Delivered really hot and all the family enjoyed it. Kids love the Kashmiri curry.

Ordered a chicken tikka ceylon which is a curry they tried to palm me off with a chicken korma with a bit of spice. Chef was quite helpful until the little one with the beard comes with his sweat dripping off his beard and asks me what the problem is and asked where I usually get my curry from like it makes a difference. Rude staff avoid at all costs plain rice and Nan was the only thing that was actually what I asked for!

Really good service by the restaurant

The food was all a little hotter than expected (korma etc). Also slightly horrified of the delivery charge, didn’t clock that initially. £6 for food delivery, not prorata to location. We won’t be buying from here again because of that unfortunately.

Very tasty meal with good sized pieces of meat and arrived on time. Would definitely use again.

I ordered a Korma which is mild but when it came it was rather spicy and I couldn’t eat it. I called The Garlic, explained my dilemma and the call handler was very nice and understanding. He told me he’d make a new one and get it to me asap. 25 mins later and the new, very mild, Korma and rice was delivered and it was delicious! Thank you to the chef for being very accommodating!

Service and everything was great, but unfortunately, two of us couldn’t eat half of our meals. I’d specifically asked for mild dishes, but they were too hot for us to eat. Having had a similar experience a while ago, I thought that specifically asking for mild dishes would help, but it didn’t. We won’t be ordering again, which is a real shame! The quality of the food is otherwise good and fresh, so it’s really unfortunate that we didn’t get what we ordered.

I like this place the guys are very friendly and the foods always nice. Will come again in the future.

Excellent as always! Best curry we’ve had! Thank you! I always appreciate the extra papadum!

Everything about this was great. The food was of such authenticity and great quality. Would definitely recommend

Can't fault it. Excellent food, very well packed and delivered bang on time

Food was good very hot, the korma was really spicy considering it should be a mild dish

Amazing meat thali and great value

I love the meat thali its so good!! Amazing hot food!! Recommended!

Wonderful food very impressed and great delivery time.

Absolutely beautiful as always really look forward to this treat 😍

On time. Meat thali was really tasty & reasonably priced. Recommend!

The lamb was so tough on all the meals we ordered. I could hardly cut through it let alone chew it, so I was left with just sauce.

Plenty of spice and flavour without being too hot. Only negative was Lamb Dupiaza , meat was small, hard/dry and just overcooked.

Absolutely superb. Naga especially was good, hot but still very tasty. Delivered on time as usual.

Delicious curry but the lamb was so tough I couldn't eat it

Bhaji were incredibly oily and overcooked to the point of being dry and chewy. The "mild" Tikka Masala was more like a medium, the special Biryani wasn't that "special". For £44 from this restaurant I expect better.

I will never ordered from there

Food was lovely and hot (temperature) which was nice. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is because the rice had tiny seeds throughout which were quite overpowering taste wise. I'm not sure why they were added and I'd advise either to take them out or give customers an option to purely plain rice.

Korma had no flavor- genuinely think the chef missed out ingredients - it was awful!

Meat dansak was tough and salty. Sag Bhaji was good.

Fantastic, I did not think you would find me and you did so it was great. Food was delicious. Thank you I am nice and full.

Lovely food and was ready on time for collection. Can’t believe they wanted £6 for delivery just down the road so we collected!

Our meal was very tasty if not a touch on the hot side ! Great service as always we will be back. Thank you

Food was nice apart from the Poppadoms which were soft. Everything else fine

Best curry in Gloucester! Tasty, hot and delicious. Thanks 😊

Amazing food and service with good size portions🙏

For the food we ordered, everything was hugely spicier/hotter than you would expect. I had chicken balti which has always been my favourite curry and my eyes were watering after a couple of mouthfuls. I couldn’t finish the dish

Absolutely delicious - we will be back - thank you

Some elements of this order were good, the curry was a stand out for an example. However the rancid pots of onions at 75p a pot was exceptionally disappointing, as we're the cremated onion bhajis

Excellent as always. Just think the delivery fee is a bit much!!!

Sadly the starter and main were SO spicy hot, I couldn't eat it, despite asking for mild :-( Pilau rice was fragranced?! Chips were greasy. Side dish, salad, poppadoms and condiments were all fine and the order was delivered early so service wasn't a problem

Average curry will not order again

Excellent food. Would recommend.

Food was cold when arrived poor food

Onion Baji was over cooked, only 2x meat samosa were in the bag and were tiny.. the lamb curry while very tasty the meat itself was over cooked and tough… perhaps it was just a bad night as previously this place has served some amazing meals..

Most horrible Indian food I have ever tasted. Firstly the delivery guy stole my first order the first time I contacted the restaurant and they were kind enough to send me another one but the food was horrible I need a refund.

Received my order on time and the delivery guy was so friendly. But I ordered a mild curry for my husband he couldn’t eat it it was so spicy. 😰

Didn’t get what I ordered unfortunately however didn’t realise until I had started eating it. Wasn’t what I would have chosen unfortunately

So sorry, the pilau rice was missing and my husband had a korma(medium ?) instead of a tikka masala. The other food was piping hot and absolutely lovely.

Just traveled thousands of miles from Tasmania and my first meal just had to be a curry from THE GARLIC.First class as always.keep up the good work Guys.

Always great food at the Garlic

Lovely food. Alway get from here. Shame the delivery is expensive though.

Arrived early which was great for us. Food was delicious and pipping hot! Very happy with our order.

Always excellent and the best Indian Take Out you could find the UK. Awesome and thank you as always

The order originally arrived at the end of the time window but classing it as late as we received the curries but no rice to eat them with! (If we had some rice here we would have just claimed it back, but we didn't) Reported to the restaurant who said they would send it out, should be with us in 20mins.. this took 30/35 mins. When we finally came to eat, the mild curries were so hot we could barely eat them. First and last order with them. Most of it went to waste 😔

Always amazing lamb tikka is the bang

Incredible meal again from The Garlic

Hot tasty, not greasy, good quality ingredients and always friendly. Would order again and again

The lamb in my korma was as "tough as old boots" and I assumed even though it was a lamb tikka KORMA that it would still be fairly mild but actually was really quite fiery!

Very tasty food, really filling and great prices. Winner Winner!

Food was delicious and Hot when it eventually turned up. Considering we paid a £6 delivery fee it took over 2 hours to arrive.

Same as most on here..ordered at 7pm received at 9pm. Won't be recommending or buying food from there again..shame!

Our favourite Indian takeaway in Gloucester

As usual, the food from the Garlic is stunningly good.

Food was Excellent, plentiful, tasty and good value for money. King Prawn Dansak was spot on and extremely tasty, lentils cooked to perfection. Mojo nan is our all time favourite!!! Tandoori Mixed grill....delicious with a selection of tasty meats fresh and succulent. Chicken sagg was extremely yummy lots of fresh spinach. Butter chicken, creamy and smooth cooked to perfection. Tarka dhal fresh, tasty and garlicky. Upon collection the staff were welcoming and professional We thank you Ali and kitchen team for another fabulous takeaway!!!

We’ve had good food from here in the past , but something has changed!! I order Chicken Tikka Massala on Fri 19th May , along with garlic tikka for my partner. His was ok but mine was vile ! For a start the colour of it was all wrong! Normally Red from most indians … this was a mucky Brown colour and swimming in water. It tasted really sweet , and was just generally weird !! The Keema Nan was really thick… a meal in itself!! The meat was so thick the bread part was soggy. Wont be going there again !! Ive given one star because my partners food wasnt too bad , but not the best !!

Everything just tasted the SAME 🤢 I ended up chucking my food in the dustbin in the end. Absolutely poor taste and a TOTAL insult to the Indian food culture. There is a method to cooking and it was not used - just tasted of uncooked curry powder and BLAND! TOTAL RIP OFF!

Food was one of the best I’ve had for a long time! Fresh and plenty of meat! Absolutely delicious!!

The food was delicious, there was so much too so good value for money. It arrived early and was steaming hot. Couldn’t ask for more!

I’m glad I ordered Chicken tikka masala Mild. Because if I ordered medium I wouldn’t be able to eat it. It was nice but very spicy.
