Gurkha Chef — Restaurant in Malvern Hills

There's a reason this place scores so highly: it really IS that great.

We booked a place one early evening after a few beers, and were quickly shown to our seat. Not being a big garlic fan restricted me to a smaller set of dishes (which probably isn't a bad thing - there's a huge variety on offer) but I ended up going for the Gurkha Special Tawa anyway after reading reviews of it.

It's a pretty big dish with chicken, lamb AND prawns in a rich sauce with onions, red & green peppers, etc. all served in its own handled balti bowl. It's marked 3-chilli rating but I didn't find it exceptionally hot (was just the right strength) but had a real depth of flavour. Although I had a nan to the side, I didn't need any other accompaniments and struggled to finish the quantity. But I'll definitely order it again!

That plus a Ghurka beer came to just under 20 quid - bargain all around.

Wow what a difference two weeks makes. Had a great experience two weeks ago and as such decided to order another take away on line tonight.

Ordered at 430pm for a 630pm pick up

Arrived at restaurant spot on 630pm - guy on desk seemed confused and couldn’t recall our order !!

He eventually located it and we received it 15 minutes later than we had ordered - it for “disappointing “ -but not a show stopper as they were Very busy.

However once we got it home and started dishing up .. it was: Simply - YUK … our £20.25p take away was cold / burnt and VERY bland. Certainly nothing like the “ reviews” we have read. Nor was it anyway on par with our meal two weeks ago.

PS / tried several times to ring and voice the above to management .

However we were told sorry line is really poor we are very busy …

“ can you ring...

This is my favourite restaurant in Malvern. I once took a party of 11 grumpy middle-aged blokes here and they were all delighted with the high quality of cuisine and the happy smiling staff, who were attentive and efficient. The decor could do with a refresh though. It does look a bit bland inside. Notwithstanding this 11 grumpy middle-aged blokes were transformed into 11 happy middle-aged blokes thanks to the Gurkha Chef!

I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend this restaurant for a night out with...
