Went there with my family. Food was excellent a great way to experience african foods but it's always the music. It's not child friendly. I would recommend assorted meat, fish, chicken, salad, jollof rice, plantain. Even though the food take long to make it's definitely worth the wait. It is fresh and cooked properly unlike the precooked and microwaved food at other afro restaurantz. Definitely will go back next time I'm in Birmingham with my fam

The food was of good authentic quality with plenty to try and at reasonable prices too. Note that the menu online is out of date so they should update that. Drinks prices also very reasonable. Service could have been a little more organised and friendlier. Toilets were clean but they have a gap in the ceiling above for both genders so you can hear each other from the cubicles which I found weird. Overall we would visit again

This is literally the worst encounter I have ever had with anyone. They messed up my order and I called to let them know they gave me the wrong order. I told them I had driven out 1 hour and they said they can’t send a diver over to replace my order and I should come back next time and my order will be fixed. I proceeded to order from a different restaurant and trashed the wrong order. I was never told to bring back the wrong order in order for them to give me a refund or sort out my order. The next day I call again to let them know I am coming we spoke on the phone you messed up my order. I drove down to then be told I am lying and they won’t give me a refund or replace the wrong order. The owners were so rude I had 3 men shouting at me about their mistake. If I could give them zero stars I would. Please safe your money the customer service is in hell.

The lady serving at this restaurant is by far one of the rudest people I've ever come across! She has ZERO customer care skill neither does she even have any interest in it. Since we arrived she barely even showed any interest in what we wanted neither did she ask. She wouldn't even engage you and when you asked her for anything it'll be as if you were bothering her. No smile, no conversation, or asking if we needed anything. When you ask her anything she just seemed so uninterested in what you're saying and if I might add, her dressing was quite inappropriate with half her breast in the open. The owner really needs to address this because it seems I'm not the only one that has pointed this out. Their food and drinks can also be quite expensive too. Definitely don't think I'll ever be coming back after this experience, not with rude stuff like her.

DON’T GO TO THIS RESTAURANT!!Worse African restaurants in Birmingham, was very disappointed with my order and over all service of the restaurant/bar I order medium Tilapia costing £18 and it came with no sides so I was oblige to order extra sides ,the food took no longer then 10min to be prepared I was under the impression that it had been cooked previously and warmed up in the microwave , the fish it self tasted uncooked and the skin tasted bitter and there was no flavour I was very dissatisfied by the taste on the food and the money I had wasted , everything on the menu was over priced and quality / taste was second -class if not WORST… I asked for chilli sauce and they didn’t have any I was given a tomato like sauce , the only thing that tasted good that I order was the puff-puffs . Unless you want to waste your money and eat rubbish don’t go !!!

This is the third time I get a food that wasn't fresh. The last time I went there I asked for brochette and they said brochette was finished and suggested me goat meat which I took but the meat was not fresh and not tasty i asked the girl if the meat was fresh she said nothing. I am so disappointed with that. I went back home I had food poisoning reaction. I regret spending over £25 just to get food reaction.

I have been to this place 3 times. And it was a terrible experience every time. I give up, I will never step in there again. There is one lady at the counter that gave us attitude every time. We have given her feedback, but she kept giving us attitudes. Last time we requested to pack meats for take away, she just didn't care. We try to found out who the manager was, we ended up talking to the cook and had to leave without the meat because the lady didn't care to pack it. This right there is what discourages Africans to support African businesses. It's a shame.

So from I called to make my order the bar woman was in a mood. She said 40 mins for my order I said ok. Arrived there 55 mins after playing my order. When I got there and repeated my order I was meet with attitude and told 5 mins wait. After 20 mins wait I asked how long as the order has been placed over 1 hr before. She ignored me, spoke to the kitchen staff in a different language and just carried on with her work. No reply. My food came 10 mins later. Everything was burnt when I got it home. I just decided to throw it away!! You people at Klassic, need customer service training!

I have been before and had no issues but that day there was a lady behind the till who was just careless. She never apologised once and had really poor attitude to the point she put me off from ordering from there. It’s ashame as I drive 60min to collect food from there and even do drop offs on my way back so my orders are £100 n more when I attend. Food is beautiful but the attitude was terrible!

I ordered a simple chicken and rice meal with fried dumplings to take away the order was ready after an hour and twenty minutes. I wouldn't have minded waiting if they were busy but there were only six people in the establishment and no one else was eating. When I got the food home which is literally across the road, the rice was in a carton of grease and was not joloff rice which I ordered. When I cut into the oddly shaped pieces of chicken the meat was red at the bone and uncooked thoroughly. I would not recommend and I will certainly never be going back. Management never respond to reviews.

What they advertised on their menu and what they sent were completely different. I ordered assorted pepper soup and was sent tripe soup with 2 pieces of meat. I also ordered fried rice with assorted meat and I was sent oily rice with soggy vegetable and red stew made with either beef or mutton (Cannot tell the difference). I called the restaurant and I was told the chef would be informed about the assorted pepper soup and that they normally send red stew with their fried rice. The guy I spoke to even said he does not know why they have it as assorted meat on the menu because they always send red stew. I did not get an apology or any sort of compensation from the restaurant. UberEats on the other hand were amazing. They sent me a full refund of what I paid for. Thank you UberEats. It looks like you are the only ones that care about the customers. Klassic Grill restaurant only cares about its pockets. There is no point using deceit just to get customers to buy your food.

I bought food from this restaurant whilst I was in Birmingham. I wish I could give them less than a star. Starting from the so called Jellof rice that had no taste..(my fault really cos the spelling itself should have rung alarm bells in my head). I also ordered veg soup with pounded yam (pounded yam priced at £2.50) not even enough for a toddler to think of an adult which the supposed meal was for. I called the restaurant as I was shocked when the order arrived and was told by the lady that apparently the pounded yam was designed in a way to be just enough for the egusi not for the person eating it.. This is absolutely shambles and zero respect for the owner's

After ordering and paying for our food, we waited 45mins. The staff were more concerned about their own food, which they decided to eat in the dining area. I asked how long for our food, they hadn’t started cooking. We asked for a refund. Their reply was “we don’t do refunds”. So we waited another half hour for our food. The food was good. We asked for complimentary food because we waited for so long. The staff reaction wasn’t good. The owner came out with dumplings which looked at least day old. When we got up to leave, staff told us that money was still owed (£4). Neither myself or my friend went to order anything extra. We ordered once. I could not understand why we owed money, we paid at the beginning. I decided to leave. I not paying extra for bad service. As me and my friend were walking to the car, group of 6 men approached us demanding money. One of the men grabbed my friend by the throat. We had to remind everyone that they were arguing over £4. That reaction was not justified. Everybody calm down and we got in our car and left. When I got home I checked my bank account, money was deducted for what I had ordered. Not happy with the service or attitude of the staff and I won’t be going again.

We picked up a takeaway from here as the restaurant was full. We had to wait 40 minutes for our food (surely takeaway should be made priority over customers in the restaurant). The lady serving was friendly, and they took my number to call me when the food was ready. Sure enough it was ready exactly 40 minutes after we ordered. The egusi was good but had very little spice, it needed to be hotter. It also had only goat, and not mixed meat. The jollof was tasty, but not like any jollof I’ve eaten or cooked before, and again not very spicy. I had to add the pot of chilli sauce that came with it. I’d order it again though! The Nyama Choma (barbecued goat meat) was tasty and tender, the best of all the food we tasted from Klassic. The restaurant is small and, on this occasion, was packed with families. If they can sort out the long waiting time for takeaways we will definitely visit again.

The food is very different (to not say disgusting) for Western European taste buds. Ordered bobolo I think it´s called (sour tasting jellied tapioca) and egusi soup (this is NOT soup, it´s a mass of stuff that smells and tastes kinda bad). Wanted to try something I´ve never had before though, so that´s on me. The place is quite dark and depressing. In addition, had to wait for more than 1 hour for the food, while watching soccer on TV.

I am Jamaican so I didnt think goat could be so nice unless it was curried down for hours in a dutchie (lol) The flavour was great and the chicken was moist and flavorful, almost similar to Jerk chicken.

It operates more like a dive bar rather than a restaurant, not that I'd go there for drinks either since they're range is tiny with 2-3 bottled beers and basic spirits. I went with my partner and family as they were visiting Birmingham and keen to go to an African restaurant. There was only one table of 4 free when we arrived so they added two more chairs for us - we should have read this as a warning and left. We ordered and waited 1 hour 15 minutes for our food. This was with us chasing this 3-4 times and being told it would be 10-15 minutes each time (lies). We joked as a group about how the slow wait made the place authenticity African - if we didn't laugh we honestly would have cried from being so hungry waiting! The food itself wasn't worth the wait. We ordered different things, the grilled goat being the best and grilled fish easily the worst as it had too many bones and was overcooked so crispy and dry. The dumplings were good too but I can't recommend anything as I wouldn't wish a visit to this place on anyone. It seems like the owner knows a lot of the customers so that must be the only thing keeping them in business. The regulars are likely those giving the place good reviews as we went by google reviews before visiting.

The African cuisine there is 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾. Whenever I go there I order grilled fish, my oh my 😋😋😋, the way they grill it is top of the range. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who fancies African cuisine.

Going to enjoy a meal I cherish, I ended up paying good money for nothing worth it. It is definitely not Suya what they are offering there, if you are a fan of Suya like me. Suya is made with powder of grinded Kuli Kuli (dried groundnut paste after extracting oil of it) plus ginger powder as essential constituents plus other flavor's depending on the chef choices. The so called Suya there had none of these two essentials yet I cannot figure how they call it Suya???? Suya is definitely not made with meat that has bones! Assuming that a low class restaurant might make the lamb Suya with parts that have bones because lamb bone is softer, this definitely never happens with beef meat. Beef meat used for Suya are tender boneless meat for sure. Given the high price for the starter (£8.99), one will never expect bones in such a starter meal, for it means one is paying for a high quality service but is actually receiving a mean return. And the chef assumes that Suya means chili spicy flavor, so he adds hot chili (without the ginger essence!) to make it taste somewhere close to Suya. It is evident he is ignorant that Suya can be and is traditionally not spicy except as the customer requests, i.e., it is not essential to have hot chili to make the dish a Suya dish, but it is definitely not a Suya when it is missing the Kuli Kuli coat/cover/flavor and when it is made with bones. That was simply a dish of roasted meat pieces that you can find in any restaurant that roasts meat and for a far cheaper price compared to quantity. It was anything but the lovely Suya dish!! (cannot say it was not well cooked, but that does not make it a Suya and Suya is a special dish) And what is annoying, it is a STARTER dish in little quantity for £9 a plate!!! I took two friends hoping to introduce them to the lovely Suya dish, telling them of Alhaji Suya in London and optimistic to get them amazed by the experience, I ended up paying £27 for roasted meat not even a half kilo if I summed the three plates. I would have been more lenient if after all, for that £27 they enjoyed the taste of Suya even if in little quantity. Indeed it was what made pay such a sum even though I realized it was a starter dish. I neither got a satisfying meal for £27, nor at least introduced my friends to the taste of Suya. As a Londoner visiting Birmingham, it is a shame that a restaurant will claim they are selling a meal and sell something else while they charge a high price that should be charged by a prestigious restaurant. Indeed it is just a show and I doubt their other dishes will be genuine African cuisines. My break in Birmingham is spoiled because of their fake advert claiming they offer Suya..

I ordered from here off uber eats, I wouldn't again as they sent me burnt rice stuck to the tray and 3 pieces or beef. Spent quite a bit for that meal just for it to go in the bin as the shop was closed when my order arrived a hour late.

Hh food was meant to arrive between 20:15 and 20:40 and I only received it at 9pm. Driver was also extremely rude, saw me struggling with my newborn and decided to complain abt the time it took for me to open the door

This place is a joke honestly countless times they just take the mick. Went for the half price roast dinner yes of course it was a discount but doesn’t mean you take the piss, one tiny quarter leg of chicken, 3 green beans, 3 carrots, 2 roast potatoes, 1 stuffing ball, a measly portion of mac and cheese it looked nothing like it did on instagram and TikTok! Yes I wasn’t expecting the exact same I’m not stupid but it was so stingy! And if you’re wondering why I didn’t complain it’s because it took over an hour to get two chicken roast dinners, and the table next to us who came later (party of 3) had their roast dinners before us. They either forgot or just thought they’ll take the piss with two girls. So at this point I was too hungry and just wanted to eat, luckily I didn’t have to pay full price for that it was a joke. Why do a promotion when you can’t meet demand or give some dead portions? You can see from the video the plate looks empty, like it’s a chicken place and the chicken piece I got was soo tiny at least give more chicken for a roast dinner wtf. Absolutely pathetic. And no updates given on wait time staff just ignore you, employ more kitchen staff very very disappointed I bet they won’t even take this review seriously.
