We’ve been loyal gourmet house customers for years now(30-40orders). Delivery is so fast and after so many orders -to never have a single disappointment is truly incredible! Everything has always been delicious, hot, and delivered earlier than their estimated time.

Alena was super effective, our jasmine tea was served with a lemon juice concentrate, delicious. Wonton soup was amazing! Our dishes served hot and fresh. Granddaughter thought the orange chicken was the best! The lunch meal is a great price, comes with soup & egg roll

Haven't eaten here since I moved from Schaumburg IL. The food here is always excellent. 10 out of 10. Will be back again very soon

Huge portions but everything was delicious!!! Highly recommend the Szechuan chicken and firecracker chicken! Eggrolls are also amazing!!!

Food is very tasty. Service is excellent. Staff is very customer focused. Gourmet House is my go to favorite for Chinese food.

Large portion sizes, delicious food here. My favorite Chinese food in the area. Plentiful seating(a party of 12 arrived today) and delicious tea. Food is always fresh and hot. Small bar for a quick wet of the whistle.

First time customer. Food was great. Service was great. Will visit again when in the area.

I love the Gourmet House! Love them most when they are not busy. I've been there several times for lunch on Saturdays, and they have been excellent each and every time. However I was there for lunch on a week day last week as well on a week day about a month ago. A month ago the food was excellent but service slow. Last week it was worse. The poor server did all she could to service the entire restaurant. She dealt with customers waving in the air for their checks, customers wanting to have their food cooked a special way and others waiting to give their order all at once and yet others getting the wrong order. And oh another to pick up an order. She did it all with the best smile she could muster and as gracefully as humanly possible and provided the best customer service I have ever seen. My order was wrong but it was delicious so I kept it. It was based on this experience that we will most definitly not be returning on a weekday around noon but will continue to keep coming back.......I know the service will be the best that can be provided at the time and the food will be delicious!
