Reviews in Solihull

We have visited Jolokia on about 5 occasions now and have been delighted with everything about it. The food is excellent, the service is second to none, the staff are friendly and helpful and I like it better than any other Indian restaurant in Solihull.

The is a must visit venue, the food is absolutely divine, I only ordered the house burger & fries, and I can honestly say it was the best burger I have had in the last 5years. Fantastic. The restaurant itself is stunning, they seem to have thought long & hard about the design, which is based around lots of wooden features. Low beams, log fires etc all in all a wonderful experience, I now look forward to visiting in the summer, so I can enjoy the terrace outside.

I am a regular visitor to woks hall. we come for early dinning and birthday etc.. we also came in October for my grandson who was visiting from isle of wight.. 12 of us that night. always a good feed clean and friendly.

The food was excellent, good choice on the menu and well cooked so compliments to the chef. However, the restaurant is let down by the waitress who is not welcoming or friendly and the bland boring decor. I would recommend that if you are booking for a Christmas meal you check beforehand to make sure it is on offer because we were told on 1st December that they had not started the set menu even though on their Christmas leaflet it states that the Christmas menu is available from Tuesday 30th November. We were not offered a 3 course meal off the ordinary menu for the price of £24.95 as an alternative even though our booking was made weeks ago,

Had a really nice lunch in here after going shopping. Staff were really attentive and friendly and the food was lovely (at a good price too). Then tried it on a Friday night and the place had a great atmosphere and buzz to it.

The food was excellent aswell as the atmosphere until a middle aged waiter had spoilt my girlfriends night by constantly eyeing her up and kept trying to flirt but unfortunately for him, he was very poor at speaking English other than that it was all very good.

I came to your restaurant on Monday 9th August 2010 on Hobs Moat Road. I came with my boyfriend and would like to take this opportunity to thank you for a first class service. The food was lovely, the decor and set out of the restaurant was lovely and the staff were very accommodating. As we were leaving the rain began to pour and at this time a lovely gentleman who I think was the manager at this time, offered us a drink to keep us out of the rain until it stopped, this was a lovely gesture, I was very happy and felt very welcome the staff were lovely. First Class service and restaurant. Thanks for a lovely evening We will definitely be coming back Kind Regards Miss jeena shaw

Well sorry to say been to this restaurant with my work mates. But the food was so greasy and couple of us had the runs the following day. It's was very expensive but that we don't mind. If only the food was good. Plus we had problems with waiter . It was a bit like Manuel from faulty towers ! Will try next door next week !

What an unexpected delight! Recommended by a friend and what a find! Talk about solihulls best kept secret! My brother has not enjoyed curry all his life but the owner recommended a dish and he has been transformed! Needs to be tasted!! 10/10

Visited Longfellows last night for an anniversary meal and was delighted with the experience. Welcome was friendly, service prompt and attentive. Food was flavoursome well presented and good sized portions. Price was slightly more than your average out of town restaurant but then quality and fresh cooked meals are. Will definitely go again.

Having now used this take away several times have always found the food excellent with that special home cooked taste. Staff are always very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend to others.

My family organised a surprise dinner for my birthday at The Malt Shovel. I had a fantastic time and really felt spoiled for a night. Not many restaurants do pay as much attention to you as they did there. The waitress was lovely and she even surprised me with a delicious cake full of candles and lots of smiles. We were booked in the restaurant area, relaxing atmosphere and beautiful set up but I wanted something a bit more lively so the manageress was kind enough to arrange a table for us in the bar area. Even though it was pretty busy we were served in time and we enjoyed the night near a warm fire place making us forget the freezing cold snow outside. We were given 2 menus and explained all the queries we had, they specialise in fish on the specials menu. I had Jamaican spiced chicken with lettuce and sugared mango as a starter and braised lamb shank with infused carrots and jus for my main. It really made my evening. The night finished with a couple of drinks at the bar and some fun time in the garden building up a snow man. I had a great surprise birthday party beside my family but celebrating it at the Malt Shovel at Barston was the icing on the cake. I would highly recommend the pub but defiantly book in advance.

Visited Longfellows two months back, from entering to leaving everything was just great. Will be going back before Christmas and then hope to find time to pay regular visits. Peter and Carol Mullins.

i had a meal there last week,the food was not so bad but the service was terrible...waiters need to smile more..1 of them could hardly speak the lingo....

A superb restaurant on the side of the pub, really cosy atmosphere with excellent food and great friendly service.

Cant fault this place. Lovely food, nice takeaways. Best curry ever. A must try, really recommend.

Dining Date: 07 April 2009 Initially its a very daunting place to be, but once you get used to the way it works, Jimmy Spices is a great night out. On arriving the staff are attentive and seat you quickly, drinks orders are taken and then you're off. There is such a choice of food that you just don't know where to start and first you pile up your plate, however, you learn and realise you can take your time. The starters are great, the mains are fantastic and the noodle bar chefs are friendly and make your dish to order just as you like it, spicy etc.... Don't get me started on the dessert choice, as I would've paid just for the desserts. This is a totally value for money restaurant, very child friendly, full of choice and variety. Five Star recommendation p.s Just don't ask for a doggy bag, hehehehe
