Based on recent customer reviews, the experiences at Asian Gourmet have been largely negative. One customer reported a significant issue with the hibachi service, where the cook was initially reluctant to prepare food due to being on their phone, requiring intervention from another staff member. While this customer found the hibachi food to be the best they had there, they described the egg drop soup as "nasty," watery with excessive oil tasting like cleaner. They also noted slimy mushrooms, hard and dry fried rice with few vegetables, and expressed that the $17 price per vegetarian meal (without a drink) was significantly overpriced for the quality, suggesting it should not exceed $9. This reviewer felt the establishment was "low class" and the food appeared "very, very old," even questioning its safety.
Another customer, whose wife and mother-in-law had previously enjoyed the place weekly, had a very poor experience involving hair in the sushi and old, discolored wasabi. They described the food as not fresh, recooked, and crusty. The only positive note for this customer was the taste of the Diet Pepsi.
In summary, recent reviews suggest significant concerns regarding the food quality, freshness, service attentiveness, and pricing at Asian Gourmet in Gurnee. Potential local users considering this meal takeaway service should be aware of these reported negative experiences.

The hibachi guy didn't want to get off of his phone He told the woman no he wasn't going to when she told him to cook me some food. The other female came over and told him to do it and he got up and did it. That was the best food that I had in the entire place. I usually take down half a pot of egg drop soup and this was the nastiest I've ever tasted I could not take two bites. It was not even used with broth it was just water with egg and some plain oil that tasted like cleaner. The mushrooms were so slimy it's slipped right out of my finger. They were so squishy and slimy I couldn't get it to poke into the fork. I don't know how many days that fried rice was sitting in the container but it was extra hard no moisture at all. Not very many vegetables to choose from other than the basic salad. As a vegetarian I feel like $17 per meal as even not a vegetarian person would feel like $17 per meal is way overpriced. This shouldn't be priced over $9 a meal. It is not a gourmet It is a low class low budget not $17 a meal worth. Let me include the information that $17 was not even with a drink. Both my daughter and I each only had water. With a drink is probably $20. This is definitely not a $20 meal place at all. Not even close. I will go somewhere else next time. This place is very low class. It took extra effort and a second person just to get the kid off of the phone to work the hibachi grill. And the food is very, very old. I don't even know how the safety department allows this to be served.
My wife and my mother in-law came here once a week and had great experience with this place. So they took me here and the sushi had hair in it and the wasabi old and lost it green color. Food is not fresh itβs recooked and crusty. At least the Diet Pepsi tasted good.
Great place to eat especially if you are looking for different options. The food was good. The only downside was that our table was not clean when we were seated.
The place itself is decent, when it comes to the food. It was stale and hard as if I had been sitting for hours. When asked for fresh food they said we can get what we wanted at the grill bar. They seemed not to care for the service. The cold bar was ok, its sushi and even that doesn't stay fresh for long. I don't recond this place unless it's your last resort and don't have anywhere else to eat.
I loved it I will be going back this is a great restaurant π π and the Hibachi It's superb.
