Reviews in Balti Triangle

Extensive menu and the food is of a consistently high standard. Friendly family run restaurant. Taking your own drink helps keep the cost down though prices are very reasonable anyway. Have found no other restaurant to compare with Imrans and I know many regulars travel quite a distance to eat there.

only had a take away..no complaints...

It was excellent, as usual. Great food; friendly service; comfortable surroundings. What more can one ask? Best wishes, Colin.

Ive been here once before about a year ago and had a great experience, so I thought id give it another try. On the outside this place looks quite run down compared to the other restaurants along ladypool road. The decor is old and reminiscent of a 1980's type indian restaurant. This I think adds to the prestige of the place, no nonsense and to the point- the food does the talking. We entered and found the service to be warm and welcoming- poppadoms placed immediately at the table - mint sauce and spicy onions, I would have liked mango chutney also which was not provided. no matter i asked the waiter what the "signature chicken dish" was and he recommended chicken methi, so i ordered this along with naan bread and also mango lassi- a traditional Indian yoghurt drink. Fabulous!!! The chicken methi was magical- chicken was soft and tender and the spices etc had a fantastic aftertaste, tickling the tastebuds. good portion sizes and the jug of mango lassi was the best ive ever had- magical. i thought the naan bread could have been better, as it was a little thick and dry but no matter. the bill was very reasonable indeed worked out at around nine quid a head. I think this place is brilliant, certainly the food is far superior to some of the more trendier restaurants in town (believe me ive tried all of them Ithiaas, Cafe Lazeez, shimla pinks, blue mango) and i would say though that with all the new contemporary restaurants out there with there fancy decor, lights, plasma screens etc, it was actually a positive to be in an "old school" environment. The chef also came and greeted us- which was nice I would therefore thoroughly recommend this place- I know now where my local curry house is. oh and extra bonus- you can bring your own booze

Love the food in the Diwan, could never fault it. Jean.

After visiting my Tarot reader in Moseley, I was starving, not knowing Moseley I asked the clairvoyant where I could go, she recommended the Diwan just around the corner. I wasn't expecting anything wonderful, but what a surprise, it was one of the best I have ever eaten in. I come from France and we are known for our critical view of food, there is nothing to criticize in the Diwan, the food was first class. Jacque. Coventry.

The Diwan is one of the best restaurants I have eaten in, and I have tried them all, not just here in Birmingham but also in other countries including Egypt. The service is excellent and the staff are very polite and friendly. I would recommend the Diwan to all my friends and colleagues. You have to try the lamb rogan josh,and also the vegetarian dishes, they are mouth watering. Patricia, Moseley, Birmingham.

i have eaten at this restaurant a few times and i always recommend it to others- why? because the food is mouthwatering and always of a good standard,

You are guaranteed excellent food in Channi's. I have been there three times now and the food is exceptional. Very traditional and authentic. In fact I'm off there this evening again and am really looking forward to it.

I have been making the journey from Nuneaton to the Plaza over the last few years and consistently had good curries from this restaurant. The Prawn Puri starter and Tropical Balti main course are superb. The staff are very friendly, the decor is clean but quite basic and you can take your own drinks. The only gripe I've got is that the main course is served too quickly after the starter.

In my journey across Birmingham Balti triangle amer tandoori is the best place were ive eat from. top service, no waiting and at a very inexpensive price.

This restaurant has got to be by far the very best of the best. It was very quiet when we went in there on a Wednesday night with my wife and 2 children. We were welcomed by the owner? brother who was very helpful and polite. For starters we had chicken pakora, lamb tikka, seekh kebab, and lush tandoori fish! These starters were prepared by the owner himself. They were the best we've had ever. For mains I had a chicken tikka keema masala jalfrazee which had a lip licking sauce that i can still taste. My wife ordered a chicken tikka king prawns masala dopiaza which was extensively great! The kids had some onion bhajis that are served like onion rings. Peshwari nans here are undoubtedly the best, they are well filled and have golden syrup on top, you'll get dirty eating but its worth it. We now visit the Shabab twice a week. They are the 'Originators of Birmingham's Balti Triangle.'

Excellent food here. I have been using Imrans for over 15 years. Quality fresh cooked food. Recommend the sheek kebabs for starters and the chicken tikka balti. The Asian sweets are an acquired taste but once you get used to them they are irresistible. Very much a family run business with families in mind. BYO drinks but do try the Lassi (milk/yoghurt drink).

The best Indian restaurant that I have had food from, with the best quality of service!

friendly relaxed atmosphere. Food cooked to exceptional standards. Tasted like good home cooked food. Service good. Will go back again and again!!

`10/10 - If you want consistently fantastic food time and time again then Alfrash has to be your restaurant of choice.... We've tried most of the Balti restaurants in the famous Balti triangle but Alfrash is the jewel in the crown... Great service, fabulous food and I believe the recognised leader of Balti cuisine... My kids?even love Balti food now as this restaurant caters for my 3 and 6 yr old kids. The bill is constantly surprising each time we go as I am a bit of a curry experimenter!! Give it a try, and with a website as impressive as theirs, you've no reason not to try "Birmingham? best Balti experience"! JJ.
