the gourmet house

a very good place to spend your time with family and have a delicious meal ,lovelyambienceand very polite and friendly staff team .the food was amazing, fresh food with a wide range of menu and so many options to choose from , the beef roulade was sooo good my mom loved it, now it has become her favorite beef dish in trivandrum , the meat was tender with lots of flavor, the hot chocolate was good too ,though i didn't taste it my dad said it was good it had the perfect amount of sweetness and chocolateyness. the rose icecream was one of it's kind, there was so much petals and it was a unique rosy taste. totally loved our experience , and since it's within town it's very easy to navigate in google without any difficulty. will definitely revisit and recommend others to try it too.

first time we are visiting tgh. we ordered tom kha soup, ramen noodles, nasigoreng, cappuccino, and pink panther juice. the food was superb tasty. polite host and well-trained staff. excellentambiencewith live music. overall experience was good.

after hearing about this place for quite some time, i finally had the opportunity to visit the gourmet house. well, theambiencewas topnotch and the food was excellent. didn't believe i was in trivandrum having this type of continental cusine. we had sushi, beef rolls and beef tenderloin with bernaise sauce.. everything was lip smacking and i definitely recommend this place for anyone having a conti craving while in the capital city. kudos to the whole team!

the food variety and theambienceis super. i had grilled apple salad, paella and spicy beef summer rolls. all the staffs was really great .

** great food, goodambienceand polite staff. you definitely need to try it out **

recommendations:
*jalapeño poppers - delicious.
*jerk chicken with paprika sauce - a must try. dish of the day for us! it came with a side of yummy mash potato👌(only wish there was more of that paprika sauce to soak the chicken in)
*we also tried the herb crusted cottage cheese and the mushroom steak. they were both good but a bit on the dry side. although later on they did inform us that we could ask for more servings of the sauce.

suggestion:
add more quantity of sauce to the dishes. it makes a big difference. also,the rice that comes with the sizzler is just plain, it would be nice to have some added flavour.

felt extremely happy a night before at this restaurant. staff were polite and friendly and took time to detail about the photographs on the restaurant wall. had chicken momo and iced tea, both of which were excellent... theambienceis very good especially the wall and seat colours, the way in which a world map is presented etc.

a fine dining restaurant with greatambienceand super service. the food is honest to its cuisine without any variations in its original flavour. quantity is a bit low for the price they charge. it’s an open clean and well maintained kitchen by the way.

awesome experience ....tried honey tossed cottage cheese for starter ...it was too good...cafe frappe ...grilled apple salad and cottage cheese sizzler ...good service and courteous staff...must go try handmade ice cream ...overall excellent food,ambienceand staff ...

we went here yesterday night;ambienceis good. we ordered potatoe leek soup, fish n' chips, grilled vegetable salad, hot chocolate and mint lemonade. soup was good but grilled vegetables were not grilled properly. fish in fish n' chips was not bad but not so great either; chips was not crispy. the drinks we ordered were good. we wanted left overs as takeaway but the waiter kept the package on a corner table and we forgot to take it, so, not happy with that. overall i'll give an average score.

greatambienceand their food is absolutely a treat. we ordered their frito misto which came along with a delicious sweet chilli sauce . for main course , we ordered the spaghetti bolognaise and garlic bread which was again perfectly made.
their portion sizes are enough to just rightly fill two people. we summed it up with their hand churned ice creams . we went for dark chocolate and mint chocolate ice creams . overall , i’d recommend this place to anyone who would like to try a refreshing experience in trivandrum.

this place is fresh air for trivandrum folks. started the food journey with pleasingambienceand warm customer service. starters we ordered were cooked to almost perfection . the prawns summer rolls were subtle and oozing lightness, hosin beef was juicy and flavorsom, chicken winglets were more of drumstick pieces than wings but taste was top notch. mains of course we went there hoping that there would be steak, the owner made sure that we got it even if it wasn't in the menu. medium to rare cooked it to the best way i love. finished off with a mint cucumber lemoande and on the house guava ice cream. all in all it was a happy ending for the day and really good experience. not too heavy on the pocket too, must try folks. fine gourmet experience. wish they served some vino as well. 😁

one of the very few restaurants in trivandrum which offers authentic pan asian delicacies.situated at the heart of the city near pattom,this place offers a good variety of dishes and is a great place for dining out with family and friends.theambienceis good and the place offers seating for around 40 guests at a time.

have tried some of their dishes and my favorites among them are the hoisin sizzling beef,lifu rice,frenched chicken winglets,kimchi salad and their special watermelon & red amarnath salad.the hoisin beef is one of the best beef dishes i have had in a while and the lifu fried rice is also a good option to try as it is tastes different from the normal ones you get elsewhere.they also have a good variety of shakes and hand churned ice-creams.the caramel shake is a good option for the sweet-tooth.overall this place is definitely worth a try for a dine out.

loved my first experience with gourmet house. below is a detailed review covering what i feel are the relevant points -
location - parking is available for a max of three cars. they said they have valet services but we didn’t need to use it that day. so i guess even though the space looks pretty limited, parking is not a big hassle.

ambience - very clean, very cosy and perfect for a family dinner. service was wonderful - friendly waiters who knew the menu well.

menu - is pretty compact and covers various cuisines. there aren’t a lot of items on the list , unlike our typical restaurants, which i thought was a good thing. the owner said that they were going to expand it further with burgers and sizzlers.

what we ordered - steamed chicken momos, a thai soup, fish and chips, nasi goreng, korean beef, lifu fried rice, a chicken dish (forgot the name) handmade ice cream (jackfruit), brownie sizzler and fried ice cream.
the momos, thai soup, nasi goreng, chicken, lifu fried rice, korean beef, jackfruit ice cream and fried ice cream were brilliant - absolutely lip smacking.
the brownie was below average, and the fish and chips can be improved vastly. the only negative we felt was the portion size, which didn’t justify the price charged.

all in all, though the price was a bit on the higher side, we would definitely visit again for the wonderful food,ambienceand total experience.
