Banu in Birmingham

So 3 weeks ago we was looking for somewhere to eat, I rang Banu who were happy to accommodate my group of 4, we had been to the theatre and got soaked on the way out. We were greeted upon arrival by a lovely man who I never caught his name, he provided us some heaters to warm us up, we ordered food and was not disappointed, the best chicken tikka starter I’ve ever had, it was fresh , hot, juicy and flavoursome! The mains were just as good. Tonight we ordered a takeaway and it was just as amazing! Thankyou again

First time I visited this restaurant and I really enjoyed the food. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Definitely recommend and would go again. Thank you

This is the third time I’ve ordered from here and it was delicious (and I’ve got a menu now so I can cut out the middleman’s commission). Delivery time was prompt enough within reason, it’s just kinda far from where I live.

Good Indian food, if you are around in Bearwood. Must try :)

Great food and friendly service/delivery person! Will use again next time I’m in Birmingham

Ordered the chicken madras with chapatis, it was spicy and delicious.

Food is always perfect and hot. Always make the food to the spice level that you can handle/want. Service is very fast too. Vegetarian food is brilliant in general.

Great food and great service would definitely recommend this restaurant 👌

Amazing food. Nice authentic taste☝️

absolutely beautiful food again banu and remembering my salad, king prawns are to die for and really tasty lamb chops with the rest many thanks 🤗

The dishes were not cooked to usual standard. The nushroom rice was not the recipe i am used to,it wasvery greasy. The biryani sauce was not to the usual recipe. The Rogan Josh was greasy did not enjoy our meal . In fact we didn't fìnish it .

The food was absolutely amazing and tasty. The staff were polite and helpful. I got a Groupon deal which was easy to redeem. It's unfortunate there wasn't more customer to add to the atmosphere but other than that, we had a pleasant experience and really enjoyed the food.

Ordered takeaway. I was staying in a hotel in city centre the food was 10/10 and the delivery driver was friendly and courteous. Phoned me once outside hotel no problem. I highly recommend

Don’t want to give a single star because they took my order last night and didn’t receive my food and they didn’t refund me my money , very very disappointed…

wouldnt order an indian from anywhere else

I got only 3 pieces for Tandoori King Prawn and the taste of Chicken pakora is worst I've ever tasted in my life

After a late night munch and this was definitely the right place! I usually stick to the same restaurants but branched out and I have no complaints. The deal is good value for money, generous sized portions and full of flavour! Also got my curry perfect as written in the comment box. Will definitely order from you guys again

All very satisfactory food of reasonable quality it’s just a bit ordinary and average. Have had much better flavours and food TBH. Asked for extra fresh coriander as it’s always missing off the curries and STILL I didn’t get it. Ah well the search for the perfect Indian takeaway continues..

Nice curry and nice portion. Friendly people

Fabulous food perfect delivery time 🙏

nice flavours not greedy, nice options to add to the curry, nice drivers very polite, I'm a regular now, will enjoy many more with then. grt price too. think you staff

First time ordering from banu and was absolutely gorgeous food, I had king prawn vindaloo and the prawns was really big and juicy, worth every penny, although they forgot to put the salad in to go with the started so rang them and they offered to come bk and deliver the salad which was really nice of them but I said no worries saves you coming bk out just for the salad and they said thankyou and just mention it nxt time I order and I will be definitely be ordering again and one time go and sit in. Thank you Banu restaurant

Foods was delicious 👌 Compliments to the chef

no food has come, the delivery guy can not give any excuse about me not being there, my flat is by the front door, my door and the front door are wide open and i am walking back and forth with money in my pocket, still waiting for my delivery

Normalmente nos alejamos de aquí, pero fue la primera vez que cenamos. La comida era increíble y el personal es muy amable, sin duda volveremos de nuevo. Restaurante muy recomendable.

Second time ordering from and food was delicious definitely ordering again and again if food keeps coming like this 😋

Gorgeous food really tasty will eat from here again thank you 😊

Food was so flavourful. Love it as always.

I always order take out here. Wow lovely food my fave place for Indian food lovely staff and the food is so delicious

We visit here at least twice a year from Solihull, food is amazing and service is excellent and always with a smile. Will be back later in the year

Food was great. Flavourful and fresh .

Great food with just a few question marks. Lovely Mwthi

Food was delicious and ontime delivery very satisfied with the food.

No spoon, Fork and tissue paper delivered with food. Food is ok but not so great.

Food is delicious, never disappoints!!

Only Indian restaurant I order from. Always perfect food, friendly service & on time. Love the chicken Madras and the onion bhajis!

Korma was beautiful I do recommend!

Curry was delicious & the food was delivered on time as well . Highly recommended the banu

Food was delicious & delivery time was perfect. Food was hot when i received. Delivery driver was very polite and kind.Definitely recommend the restaurant for authentic indian currys

The food was delicious and the delivery was on time.Food Was still hot when delivered. Highly Recommended. Vegetarian options are huge .

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The food was still hot when I went to collect the food. Taste was very authentic. I rang the shop to confirm my order and the young man at the front was very helpful. Did not have to wait around as staff where fast and efficient:)

We received a warm and friendly welcome and service (and have done whenever we've visited over the years). They have a wide variety of dishes (both vegetarian and non vegetarian), and so you're bound to find something on the menu you would like to try and enjoy.

none of us liked our food, I ordered tikka chicken meat, definitely wasn't tikka, only ordered from there as my usual place was closed, would not recommend sorry 😐

Hi,the order says steak and chips,I got steak and fries,Who eats fries with steak? Have to say disappointed with the whole meal.

Absolutely stunning food! First time ordering here and won’t be my last. Highly recommend.

Ordered a chicken tikka bhuna using Uber eats and didn’t like it much. Onions could have been cooked for longer to make them softer and the chicken find have much flavour. Don’t recommend this curry

I had mushroom pilau rice and it was absolutely amazing!

Banu serves up genuine Indian cuisine with no compromise on flavor. With the owner as chef, quality is guaranteed.👌 Recently, the return of the old chef has elevated the menu.With cozy vibes and top-notch service.

Let me start off by saying I ordered food online. Heres what I ordered: Chicken & Egg noodles King Prawn noodles Chicken Curry Chicken Biryani Do you know how they made the noodles? These guys literally must of went to homebargains brought those 3 for £1 noodles or some next corner shop and dunked the chicken and prawn with a some kind of sauce and called it homemade noodles. It was absolutely vile. Next the Chicken curry and my god was this the worst I've ever seen. I felt as if they dumped dog food in a box and said "here eat up buddy". They put a bunch of veggies in the curry which I didn't ask for and also curry was sour instead of mild. Chicken biryani - this was absolutely disgusting and went straight into the bin. If you are looking for Indian cuisine or ordering late at night. Stay very far away from this place. Never ever will be ordering again. £40 gone straight in the bin.

Banu is a small family run business... The missus and I went out for dinner. Customer service was great. The staff were very friendly. We had food from the set menu. Both missus and I enjoyed our dinner; zero complaints from us. I can see us coming back here again.

Best Indian food in Birmingham.

Don't go there if U expect authentic Indian cuisine . Ordered chicken biryani and tikka mixed grill through the Uber app. Food arrived quickly but unfortunately I don't like it Taste is bland and not spicy at all. Can see that restaurant is focused to bring Gori customer.

The food was lovely, but there was barely any meat in the Korma like 4- 5 chunks and lots or sauce. There atmosphere was quiet due to it being New Year’s Eve so we was able to do new years count down with my BBC app. Although it would have been nice for them to have some music on in the background. Lovely service man.

Had the set menu, it was lovely, the food was really tasty. The staff were friendly and came and asked us how our meals were. Will definitely come back again.

Honestly, really poor, low quality food, wouldn't recommend it. Much better places in Birmingham to go for a good Indian. Service was not great either.

Have been trying the food for many years.They never disappoint with food. But ever since the old chef had been back i can get the same old taste. One of the best curry house in Birmingham Right now.

No doubt, awesome Indian food, chef Mamum and Harun... Their hospitality is indeed another level,... 😀 Keep it up team...

Food and people very nice but the restaurant needs up dating. Needs a paint brush. Quite cold. Toilets need cleaning regularly floor sticky.

A warm welcome and very friendly staff, continually checking we were happy with our food. We were, it was absolutely delicious ! Soft drinks only, sold on the premises. Not sure if you could take your own alcohol, might be worth asking, we weren’t fussed at the time. Decor basic, but we didn’t mind that, we weren’t dressed to impress. Would definitely eat there again, thank you Banu !

The food is great. Nubabi meals and fried rice are superb! The staff named Harun are very accommodating. One of the best restaurant here in Birmingham. Thank You! Cheers! -Vincent Hilario/ Filipino

Get takeaway regularly from here and it's great.

I've been eating at Banu for over ten years now and have enjoyed good, friendly service and splendid vegetarian food. The place has a sort of old-fashioned charm about it and isn't too noisy. In my opinion, it is also reasonably priced. This evening, I had a three course meal followed by a nice coffee served with delicious silky cream as requested. For my main meal, I had noodles with korma sauce and it was just the ticket. I'd recommend Banu if you're visiting Birmingham alone or want a meal out with a friend or partner.

The only Indian takeaway I’ll order from. The service is always great and the food is consistently delicious!

’ve not eaten in the restaurant and I’m not sure why because the food that arrives as a takeaway is fantastic! The curries are the best I’ve tasted, proper old school! Drivers very friendly, would definitely recommend and can’t wait to go to the restaurant !!

Absolutely incredible food, very happy. Great service and very very friendly staff and delivery was early ! Very very happy and will definitely be back !

Nice dishes, polite staff, good price. The food is delicious and well prepared. The owner make us feel very welcome.

Once again. Another amazing experience with Banu. We have ordered from here at least 10 times and every time it is as delicious as the last. I really can’t fault it. The food is delicious, the portions are generous, the flavours are authentic and the service is second to none. They always look after their loyal customers too! The service from the restaurant staff and delivery drivers is fantastic too. On my most recent order they forgot my naan bread but they were apologetic and the driver came straight back within minutes. This is honestly the only negative we have experienced but was quickly resolved and followed up with a complimentary bottle of coke. Please don’t change Banu!

This is a terrible place to eat anything there honestly. All the curries are yuck and unhealthy. We were unhappy and feel like we wasted our hard earning money and flushed down the hole. Never going back to this terrible place.

Food is delicious. The owner make us feel very welcome. Service is good. Price is fair, portion is big.

Used to use this place for delivery for years. Sometimes the food is not nice but most times it is. maybe different chefs.

Food was delicious & servers were polite and easy to talk to. We were really happy with the service & the variety of food we were served. Will definitely go again. Thank you!

Arrived midweek on spec, been once before. As ever food excellent and service as friendly as could be. Early evening so I was the atmosphere! The king prawn jalfrezi was excellent and no alcohol.

The food isn’t fresh, it’s all reheated, the curry’s are all the same. i’ve ordered bhuna, balti, sagwalla all exactly the same. low in flavour. barjee were cooked a week ago and reheated to order, greasy and soggy and tasteless. the driver was aggressive and rude. would not recommend.

A good restaurant with decent food. The staff were extremely polite. Enjoyed the lamb jalfrezy..

Great place, good atmosphere, friendly staff and lovely food. Staff were polite and never intrusive. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and the food was outstandingly good.

Great service. Attentive but not intrusive. Beautifully presented dishes. Care taken by staff to ensure dietary needs and tastes met. Mango chicken was gorgeous Naan breads so light and flavoursome particularly enjoyed the vegetable tiffin starter . All round was a fabulous eating experience for us . Heartily recommended

Fantastic staff and I have had it as a takeout multiple times, and it is just as delicious as a take away

I am giving one, but the are not even worth it for one. Food itself was so spicy you can’t even eat waste of money

We enjoyed a fantastic taster menu here last night. The food was totally delicious and the service was wonderful. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Don't be put off by the exterior of the premises as the food and service are outstanding.

Excellent food with good portions and very kind and attentive service. The naan and chicken balti in particular was absolutely excellent. I also highly recommend the chicken chaat puri starter as it was absolutely amazing. Will definitely be visiting again!

food is very flavourful and good value for money. Special naan was lovely and the staff are friendly Will definitely be ordering again

Only came for a quick bite but I thought the chicken saag I ordered was excellent as was the baan bread. The young man who served me was so polite. Exceptionally nice service! Incredible value too. There is a very good offer for dine in for 2 at the moment.

Wouldnt even give 1 star. Was a new customer. Food was cold, I asked for extra coriander and they didnt put it. The rogan Josh curry is discusting no flavour what's so ever. The coriander naan just had a sprinkle of wilted coriander on. Nothing special. And the tikka starter obviously not done in a clay oven. Best bit was the free salad portion. Was fresh. Never again will I order from here. I work in fast food myself and this is shocking to say the least

Very good curry house! No alcohol, but food worth it. Will be back

Didn’t get full order and when I called , very difficult to rectify, Made me feel like I was in the wrong to ask for what I paid for ,

Visited for the first time, very impressed. We had starters, mains, rice & naan bread. The food was lovely. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I highly recommend and will be definitely coming back.

Was staying at the Ibis Styles Hotel on the Hagley Road with my 14-year-old daughter and found this gem of a family restaurant after a short stroll (10 minutes). Enjoyed an excellent meal - my daughter was raving about her Vegetable Biriani and my Chicken...

Visited here this evening after finding an offer on Groupon. Food was superb, great value, delicious, hot and plentiful. Service was excellent too, very attentive and friendly. We will definitely visit again. :-)

We had a very lovely meal at this restaurant, cozy ambience, place is clean and warm, the staff were all welcoming, and the best part? The food was so great, at a very reasonable price. Will definitely come back another time. Highly recommended

Foods great here ive ordered inline and been to the resturant myself calm atmosphere food priced fairly and tasted good too i always order the chops

Great restaurant six of us went for a 3 course meal . Harun was very polite and nothing was too much trouble made sure our food was to our liking and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was beautiful and would definitely...

Service was good but had a bad stomach at 2am also the toilets are dirty and the naan tasted of fish.

I've tried to order twice here but the order both times was cancelled with no reason given
