Esme's in Birmingham

Fui a cenar con mi hijo. Tuve cordero vegetariano al curry y mi hijo tenía pollo al curry con patatas fritas de batata. Fue muy sabroso y mucho para comer. El interior es encantador para sentarse y comer y hacen un servicio para llevar. Bien impresionado de nuevo por la comida y sin duda volveremos a comer.

La peor comida jamaicana que he tenido. También podría haber tirado 24 por el desagüe. Cementerio acuoso. El corte de pollo más barato. Horrendo. No comeré allí de nuevo

Excelente servicio, la comida era increíble, esme, déjame probar su famoso pollo con su salsa especial, después de probar varios pollos, este fue el mejor con diferencia que volveré a usar. ¡gracias! !

Mi lugar favorito del caribe en Birmingham, con mucha variedad y bien preparado. Tenía el curry de pollo estofado de cordero y marrón, recomendaría 😊

Hemos comido de Esme come dos veces, la primera vez no era agradable, la comida congelada. Estúpidamente tuvimos una toma de distancia de allí ayer y fue peor que la primera vez. La comida es claramente congelados luego superficial cuando pides. Desde comer aquí ayer han sido graves, a pesar de sólo retortijones de estómago mal comer un poco de la comida horrible. Sin duda evita este lugar.

After having a couple of wonderful takeaways we decided to venture out to eat on a miserable Saturday night. So glad we did- the welcome and the food warmed our cockles! Four of us had two huge sharing platters to start, four very generous mains with a couple of sides, four puds and two bottles of very acceptable red for a total of 25 quid each. It wasn't about quantity or value for money though. Everything was good. Our waitress was great, really friendly and efficient. The place was warm and welcoming with a really relaxed and pleasant ambiance, difficult to achieve on a miserable night when we were the only diners! The main attraction though was the food. Best saltfish fritters I've ever eaten, light, delicious and very moreish, best rice and peas EVER, fabulous oxtail, gorgeous rum cake...... I could go on, but think you may have the general idea. One of our party was so impressed he immediately booked a table for next week. It's a bit tucked away off the High Street, but once found you'll come back many times.

Beautiful tasty food would definitely go again small restaurant need another chef as they seemed a bit under pressure to get all food out at once but it's well worth the wait

Haven't sat down here yet, but have to strongly recommend the takeaway. It's brilliant! So far we've tried the chicken wings in Esme's hot sauce, salt fish fritters, curry goat, jerk chicken, oxtail, plantain and rice and peas. Absolutely everything is the best example of any we've ever tasted. It's not the fastest service in the world, but as everything is freshly cooked it's well worth the wait. Just try it.

I enjoy jerk chicken cooked Jamaican style. Esme's has mastered the art and I recommend this restaurant for the consistently high quality of all their meals and in particular their delicious jerk chicken and rice and peas.

Last Saturday, 20th August, 2016 I went down to Hockley Flyover for an innovative music festival staged beneath a grey,concrete urban road flyover. The brainchild of Soweto Kinch, it was a well Organised,well attended opportunity to experience live music,including rap,contemporary jazz and such like, of a high standard. The only food available was Esme's Carribean and it was outstanding. They have invented a new fusion street food, the Jerk Chicken Burrito...! A generous tortilla wheat wrap filled with classic rice n peas,delicious jerk chicken, creamy coleslaw and fried plantain. Spot on! I drizzled mine generously with hot,hot pepper sauce and it was a revelation. If this is what these guys can do as street food on the fly, I can't wait to try the restaurant....
