Dishoom Birmingham in Birmingham

Met up with friends for lunch. Food was fabulous, server was really lovely and a great ambience. We all thoroughly enjoyed our get together and will visit again.

We chose this restaurant because it was near another event that we were attending, and we are so glad that we did. Such a friendly welcome right from the start. For starters we had samosas and "new keema" both flavour-packed. The main course arrived just as we were polishing off the starters, and they were huge prawns and a pot of very tender mutton, both of which were packed with flavour. Great atmosphere with a buzz as you might expect in a city centre restaurant. Service was very attentive. All in all a very enjoyable meal, we will be back!

Visited as a family for my husband’s birthday at the end of February. Food and atmosphere as always was excellent. We were looked after again by Sathya - first class service - couldn’t ask for more - thank you for making it such a lovely occasion! We will be back (again!) soon.

As ever, the food was stunning and the service was impeccable. Dishoom's standards are so consistently high, it’s always an absolute pleasure. I introduced someone to Dishoom for the first time today and they were equally impressed. Thank you to everyone @ Dishoom Birmingham!

Our first visit to this restaurant chain and we were very impressed. The food was excellent with a fabulous choice on the menu. The decor was very atmospheric. We were a party of 6 and our server, Jake, was fabulous. He took time to explain the choices on the menu and particularly paid attention to one of our group with food intolerances by giving her an iPad which detailed the dishes ingredients. The food was excellent and we all agreed that we would come back again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant to friends. Well done Jake for making our first visit to Dishoom so memorable.

Wonderful food service and ambience. We will be back for sure. Already recommended to two other friends. Really exceptional! Thank you!

The atmosphere for lunch was lovely, relaxed and friendly. The staff were excellent, knowledgeable and helpful. Food was delicious and there was great choice of small or larger plates and great drinks choice of non-alcoholic beverages. Would certainly recommend as a super lunchtime venue.

A great night, great vibe. Excellent service and an extensive menu, great for sharing and sampling sides and small plates to maximise food experience

Celebrated a friend’s birthday. I had never been before but it was highly recommend by 2 of the party that eat there regularly. I was not disappointed. Gorgeous venue with a great ambience. Food was outstanding!! Flavoursome and good portions. Staff go over and beyond. Will definitely be back and highly recommend.

Pav bhaji was rubbish and very dry, rumali roti was too salty and dry lamb curry was so so not worth value for money I had spent £48,70

Incredibly noisy huge restaurant. If you like creamy curries with little discernable spice then this is the place for you. Then add 12.5% service charge.

Delicious food! Definitely recommend x

Fantastic from start to finish. We had a booming but arrives early and was seated within seconds. Our server Alex was very attentive and explained the menu well. The food was ordered and our first dish arrived within 15 mins. The food was amazing and I am looking forward to my next trip to Dishoom! We also got a free dessert for my partner's birthday! We have no photos because we were too egar to try it all!

10/10 as always Great food Great service Great atmosphere One of my fave restaurants

Always an amazing experience coming to Dishoom in Birmingham. Lost count how many times we have been - food and service always outstanding

Great today. The staff are always attentive.

Excellent as usual. Regular visitor for birthdays and special occasions. Pre booked the table the day before to avoid the wait outside specially in the winter. Excellent food and no complaints.

“The food was exceptional, and the overall experience was truly delightful. Highly recommended“

Partha was great and very attentive

Great food, great service with an interesting menu

Wonderful experience, amazing food, knowledgeable staff. The chief special is a must!!

The food is just incredibly good!! I don't know a single Indian restaurant on this level in Germany. In my opinion, Dishoom is the highlight of Birmingham.

Another epic trip to Dishoom, never fail to deliver

Altogether lovely, service was brilliant and food delicious

really enjoyed it great service

Really good experiences as always thanks

A very pleasant dining experience Kala khatta with nice cream-a very intriguing desert

Amazing food, good service, great atmosphere!

Our waiter was amazing, made our night.

The restaurant is overpriced for the limited variety of main courses offered. The lack of options left us disappointed, and the quality didn’t justify the cost. Wouldn’t recommend for those seeking value for money.

Always wonderful. Food and service excellent.

Our recent New Year's lunch at Dishoom with four other families had a positive start.the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff member who explained the menu was very helpful. However, we encountered several issues. Firstly, despite the menu stating service charges are optional, we were met with resistance when we attempted to exclude them from our bill. We felt this was justified as the service fell short of our expectations. The small plates provided for both starters and main courses were inadequate, leaving a less-than-ideal dining experience, especially considering the restaurant's emphasis on authentic Indian cuisine. Secondly, the limited gravy options (only four) severely restricted our choices. This forced us to order the same chicken ruby gravy repeatedly, which became monotonous. We believe this menu may cater more towards diners unfamiliar with the diverse flavors of Indian cuisine. Furthermore, while the waitstaff inquired about our dining experience, they were inattentive to basic service needs, such as clearing used plates, refilling water, and ensuring adequate table space. Finally, the portion sizes were disappointingly small, leaving us feeling unsatisfied despite the high overall cost. This left us feeling that Dishoom, despite its popularity, may not be the most value-for-money dining experience for families."

Yet again! And amazing experience with friendly staff and excellent food. Could not reccomend enough.

Brilliant staff accommodating my son who has multiple allergies ,very patient etc 1st visit will be back soon

Dishoom is one of the finest restaurant in Birmingham. Quality food accompanied with great ambiance.

The street food is fairly authentic Bombay style, slightly priced up but worth it!

Waiter was exceptional, deserves a promotion. Fantastic jazz, food, ambience - the perfect night!

All ok. Food on expensive side for the portion size.

Had a wonderful time at Dishoom Birmingham with my family. The food was excellent, loved the house daal, garlic naan, Vada pav. We were Served by Manjeet Singh, he was lovely and did great service to the family and especially my son

Very good food serves by very nice people!

Perfect, our server was amazing, friendly and very attentive!

Food and service absolutely brilliant but the service is just outstanding. Thankyou all the staff

Being as I’ve worked in the hospitality industry for almost 10 years I can say I recognise top tier service when I see it ! It was myself and my partners first visit to here and the entire team were nothing but attentive , professional and passionate about their work! As much as the entire team went the extra mile , to safe to say Matt (our host) made our entire experience the best from start to finish ! Safe to say we’ll be coming back !

Great dining experience..will be visiting again soon

Megan served me today and on Sunday, she had been so lovely and efficient and made sure we had a lovely experience 😊.

Perfect start to NYE. Great food and drink and our server, Megan, was so helpful. Made it a very special meal.

Been in dishoom first time and I totally loved it good atmosphere staff is really friendly, food was too good perfect taste .will deffo going back

Absolutely love this place. Always a bit of a concern when you take a friend to somewhere you've been too lots (his first time there) Need not have worried, he utterly loved it too. Service was brilliant as always, thank you Szymon. I'll be back soon and I guess my friend will too.

Fantastic food, great ambiance and wonderful wonderful service from Tommy!

Waiter Kim was so lovely he went above and beyond. Really made my dads birthday a great day.Thank you

Excellent service despite the restaurant being full. Food was great. A draft beer would be nice.

Best place in central Birmingham for a good curry good service and a good time

Lovely food, found table quickly for us and helpful when choosing a gluten free meal. Visited with a friend has someone who has visited Mumbai very authentic in decor. However the resturant is very busy and noisy so difficult for conversation even with the waiter.

Had a wonderful time out for dinner with the family. Great restaurant, great atmosphere, great staff and great food.

Incredible food! Incredible service! Coming again!!

Great food, Lovely Atmosphere 😍. And the service is impeccable.

Chicken Ruby = Heinz cream of tomato soup with very thin sliced chicken complete with skin and fat attached. As far away from a curry as you could possibly imagine.

Feel the pricing is over the top. Delicious lassi but in a tiny glass, tasteless fish dish, too much cardamon throughout so everything tastes same, and so on. Great service tho note the 12.5% service charge is auto applied. I almost paid a tip on top. Good location.

Excellent service…shame about okra fries being unavailable

Best food, ambience and service, every time I visit 👏👏👏👏👏

Amazing Service by Partha :) great food!

Amazing place a complete back to Bombay feeling for a bombay person a must visit

Great food, atmosphere and service

We relied on past reviews to choose an Indian restaurant, and I must say they are absolutely well deserved. The best Indian restaurant ever. The quality of the food is top-notch and the service is equally excellent. In particular, Roberto was friendly, kind and very professional. Definitely worth trying if you’re staying in Birmingham.”

Always fabulous, always tasty. Love this place.

Have been before and every time is wonderful. Great buzz, friendly staff and great food. The only slight disappointment was the lack of choice once gluten free was required

Superb service for our family, thank you Kyle

Kyle server 488 was great. Thank you.

Love this place! Food is always amazing!

Great Food. Fantastic explanation of dishes heritage by Claudia Lovely personality Makes the venue

Amazing food and vibe as always

Great food and very nice place.

Excellent service and great food

Claudia was an excellent waitress, she made our visit really enjoyable! The food was great, as it always is!

Love coming here. The food is just amazing the the atmosphere is so much fun

Great food, fair enough prices for the value and staff is friendly and helpful. I've been here a couple of times and always end up ordering the Mattar Paneer, it's one of the best I've had amongst different places. Some people complain about the discretionary 12.5% tip that they automatically add to the bill. You can always aske them to remove it if you wish. Personally, I appreciate the good service they try to offer.

Fabulous always. Erica is a lovely host!

Everything was fantastic. Thank you Dishoom.

On Sunday 1st December, my wife, daughter, and I had the pleasure of dining at Dishoom in Birmingham, and it was an experience to remember! The food was absolutely delicious, with the Vegan Bombay breakfast quickly becoming a family favourite. The bottomless chai refills were the perfect accompaniment, warming us up on a chilly day. Every dish we tried was packed with flavour and beautifully presented. What truly elevated our visit was the outstanding service we received from our server, Megan. She was warm, friendly, and incredibly attentive throughout our meal, making us feel so well looked after. What really impressed us was her dedication: although we saw her heading off on her break, she noticed we were ready to settle our bill and delayed her break to assist us. Her professionalism and care were exemplary – amazing customer service! To top it all off, the team surprised us with a plate of scrumptious pancakes, complete with a candle, to celebrate my birthday. This thoughtful gesture truly made the day feel special. A huge thank you to Megan and the team at Dishoom Birmingham for creating such a memorable experience for our family. We can’t wait to return!

Came here for breakfast and it was certainly the best decision. We had a great Host Kim, he was very attentive and very polite. Knew the menu well and always had a smile on his face when he came over to us. Food was yummy, highly recommend the sausage naan roll and the bacon and Brie naan roll. Left feeling very full and content.

Made me feel like home. Lamb biryani is a must try!

We were served by Robert this evening and he took amazing care of us all night. He made sure we were well looked after and gave us great suggestions when needed. The food and drinks were of such great quality as well. An overall great experience!

Great food served quickly in a lovely restaurant.

Another awesome meal. Thanks Dishoom

Fantastic service, food and atmosphere wonderful too!

Great service and food - as usual! We hadn't reserved ahead, but they were able to accommodate us.
