La Vera in Birmingham

These guys truly know how to make a great pizza! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, situated in a relatively quiet part of the city, yet still central. The staff is incredibly friendly and handles any issues promptly and efficiently. Overall, it's a fantastic experience—highly recommended!

(2 adults, 1 baby and 1 teenager) We visited to celebrate my niece's GCSE results before she starts college. The upstairs outdoor area was pleasant, but the non-smoking rule was strange, especially since a staff member was smoking right under the sign while on break. Ordering was straightforward, but the menu lacked important details. I ordered wings for myself and the baby, and they came with an unlisted sauce that I didn’t like. They also mixed up the sides, putting steak-cut chips (listed as just "chips" on the menu, which is frustrating as most places in Birmingham do this) on the wrong plate. When I asked for the mix-up to be fixed, they only corrected the baby’s wings. I ended up returning my meal for a refund, and the cashier agreed that the sauce should be mentioned on the menu or served separately. The tzatziki and chili sauce were both watery and lacked flavor. My niece's pizza was soggy in the middle, but like many teenagers, she didn’t complain and just ate what she could. Unfortunately, this will be my first and last visit. There was no follow-up to check if everything was okay, even after the issues we had, and no goodbye when we left. The whole experience felt very cold. I went to the opposite restaurant ARABI GRILL HOUSE this was amazing food and service also got complimentary soup and pickled vegetables on the side as a starter.

The food was alright. The salmon dish didn’t have any flavour or taste. After the dish, My stomach had been killing me. If you have any stomach or digestive problems, I don’t recommend it.

Very good pizzas!!! You get free fries and free tea!!!

The food was fresh I had the lamb kofta which was good

we visited this place yesterday and placed order for our dinner. service was very bad,we ordered starter which came with main course after waiting at least 20 minutes. starter bread was in miserable condition when they were informed they said it is like this today we are busy!!!! Seriously??? am i not paying for this food?? bulgar rice were also cold in main course. i asked for ice they did not bring i asked for fresh bread the didn't bother to bring it on the table.. they have no capacity to handle customers if they get busy.. zero customer service...

It is very worth a visit, and thanks to the Arab brother for the cashier and the honorable and respected sisters, they deserve praise

Lovely food, friendly staff as well, been there for pizza as well as kebabs, good portion size.

Me, my Husband and our two children recently visited La Vera. We have always been eating at Martineau Place at the same place we wanted to try something different. Soon as we entered we can see the place was fairly busy, we were welcomed with warm smiles and quickly seated. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming made us feel at home. The menu for the main meals were small but we actually prefer this as too having many choices as that can be overwhelming. We ordered one lamb kofta and two chicken kofta meals. Food was absolutely beautiful, MashAllah. Was presented well, good portion size. Even our little boy who doesn’t like to eat much when we go out kept coming for our food 🥹😁 Our son loves to not stay still in one place and have a little wander around the shop which made me feel a little bit nervous as I didn’t want to cause an issue or the staff to mind but everyone was so kind even the customers that were having their meals they didn’t mind our son going upto them and sitting at their table ☺️ Lovely lady called Huda that works their was very kind and attentive, she even went out of her way to give our son fresh orange juice which was just meant alot to us as these little gestures goes along way. Also wanted to mention that they do not sell any boycotted products which was a plus for us. Zanti Cola 👌🏼👍🏼 Thank you to everyone at La Vera for making our eating out experience one to remember. We can’t wait to come back soon and try one of your Wood Oven Pizzas Would highly recommend to all family and friends 10/10 for everything

Disgusting 🤢 the food uncooked, dirty place , I just was so hungry but when I try the food it’s was better to go in another place

The best restaurant to go to when you want a lot of food that is healthy and cheap. Don't knock it until you try it. The pizzas are great, the platters are amazing and they also sell fresh juice. What's not to like!

Place is good price/performance one. I suggest charcoal cooked shishs instead of pizza. In addition nutella-banana made dessert is nice!

The chicken was so dry and no moisture. Some of these places lose quality on a busy day.

Thank you, he condemns the owner of the tea with cardamom, may God protect her from Hell, O Lord🥰🇸🇦🇵🇸

Fast service, excellent food, good quantity, reasonable price. Perfect !

Good food friendly staff , if the music could be changed for a better playlist would be perfect and maybe reduce waiting time for food :)

Tuna pizza too wet and pepperoni pizza too oily, the bottle sauces dirty and sticky. Service can be much better, people look like they don’t want to work. Good location and cheap but disappointed with the food and service.

Pretty tasty food with good prices, and welcoming staff! Very grateful for the gift - nice back tea with cinnamon as a gift for everyone, that was unexpected. The place always has a lot of people, big portions , and the best hummus I’ve ever tasted.

Amazing food, very good prices and an overall enjoyable experience

Their pizza is the best! Other dishes however is okay, the portions are more than enough for a person which I like, but it’s not special, my chicken was a bit chewy too, I visited twice and would come again but only for the pizza

Had a half chicken meal, was very tasty and filling

Very good service and very clean place and very delicious food I give five star

Loved the chicken tikka. Pizza was great as well

This was as my 3rd time here as always the food and service at this place is so good. I have never had a problem with the food here or the service.

A definite all round crowd pleaser in terms of the food and service. The Shish Taouk and Mixed Grill definitely wowed. A ‘must visit’ again.

Best Pizza in town 10/10 Service amazing The somali girl services us always 10/10 Customer service, always helpful and has smile on her face. We will be back.

An absolute wow of a place! The most delicious pizza I have had in a long, long time. The rest of my family had kebabs and they were gorgeous too. This restaurant is as good as it gets! A total halal gem in the city centre.

Amazing food, great, super-fast service, friendly staff and reasonable prices No faults at all

Had a tasty thin Italian pizza and lamb kofta kebab.super delicious food came with my family this time.This was my second vist.Chef made pizza ŕight infront of you.sitting available upstairs as well as downstairs. Friendly staff Good service.Recomended ?Yes

The best food in Birmingham nice service professionel good cleaning and presentation good fresh food

took them 40mins to prepare my lunch, if you are in a rush, don’t eat here

Amazing pizza and very reasonable. Lovely service as well. Thank you

Fantastic as always, thank you La Vera! Really nice restaurant, excellent value. I eat here often and tried multiple dishes, alway very tasty. Would recommend and will defo return.

Pizza is great size, but menu needs some spicy options! Had a chicken pizza, but not much chicken was on there.

The service is incredible when you enter you are welcomed and they are really hospitable. The portion sizes are very good and the food is delicious. Best halal restaurant in Central Birmingham

Absolutely fabulous food. Beautiful decor. Helpful staff 5 star dining. Bang in the middle of city centre. Child friendly

Their Pizza is lovely, the chips very soft and tasty. Amazing place with plenty of seating inside, outside aswell as on the roof top. Not far from Argos and Boots.

Decent grilled food and they serve proper chips, not those generic frozen fries everyone else does

Good food and friendly staff.Not expensive

First time here , very good service and very good pizza

المطعم جميل جربت البيتزا الترافيل جميلة والببروني . كان في اختلاف بالطلب لكن بدون جدال على طول غيروا البيتزا ، وهذا تصرف يشكروا عليه . الأغاني صوتها عالي جدا بشكل مزعج حتى المحاسب ما يسمعك بشكل واضح وانت تطلب .

Buona pizza, il servizio abbastanza veloce.

Bestttt halal italian pizza in Birmingham!! We ordered a pizza perugina and a wings platter which was amazing and flavourful!! 😍😍 The vibes are very relaxing and comfortable! The staff is very attentive and available. Highly recommended!

I liked the taste of pizza it was exactly the way i want, only the thing was there was no olive oil, chilli flakes because we were expecting it to be on table, it was our first visit to this place so we didn't know whether to ask server about it or we need to take those stuff from somewhere but without olive oil and chilli flakes also pizza was good i am impressed. Huge space and good atmosphere to be with family and friends.

so delicious and the food is fresh, the best restaurant in birmingham

A great food with a very helpful staff they serve absolutely everything you need in there.. the chips that they have is something out of this world. Strongly recommended restaurant .

Staff and food 10/10 Price is very reasonable for city centre.

Very Fast service Very tasty, Grill Most visit Lovely

Great place to visit, The food is amazing and the service as well, besides the tea serving as a gift for customers the bathrooms smell nice and you can easily realise that they are being cleaned everyday. This is my favourite restaurant in Birmingham!

Very cheap and very good pizza. It's not fancy but it's quick and tasty.

Best BBQ in town! I never miss the opp to dine whenever i am in town… ❤️❤️❤️

The only place in UK that feels like this. Everytime I go visit I feel like I'm back home visiting distant family. If you love pizza or middle eastern food you cannot pass up La Vera

The food was good but the service was really disappointing. It's my 2nd time being there, both times mistake on the food ordering. And some staff really need to be trained well. Chef and some of them very respectful but some...... we asked for water they gave us in a dirty glass so we asked for more water and ice then the staff said that we have to send 8y old kid to bring the glass of ice Upstairs??? Excuse me !!!! Why do we have to feel like we have been served for free? We didn't ask for a lot . What I'm saying is respect the customers the way you want to be respected as a customer in other places . Thank you.

Great atmosphere and brilliant service. Food was very nice. I wanted to give 4.5 for food but don't have the option. Service however was exceptional, especially by Huda. Kept her eye on us regularly and was ahead of the game at all times. Service with a smile. Will definitely be returning. Thank you 🙏

The best pizza i had in a while

Not impressed. Over charged for mediocre food. Top it off everyone was offered tea but lady chose to ignore us. She even gave tea to two little kids opposite us. Won't be going there again

Always amazing food here. Fresh and delicious. My daughter doesn't like pizza (gasp) so she gets the grilled chicken wings which are cooked to perfection. The rest of the family digs into amazing pizza each time. Wait can be a bit if busy but that's to be expected for fresh food. They recently opened up the upstairs to sit outside on the roof and it was lots of fun for kids to sit outside. Chips are spot on. Well cooked and crunchy and pizza freshly cooked and delicious. Have been going for years and will continue

Pizza number three (the chicken and cheese hotdog) is quite rich and abundant, I recommend sharing it between two or three people

We go there every week with friends when we have a break at University. great service and always good fresh food, recommend! You can eat inside or outside

Great service and yummy food. Good quantity. Highly recommended.

I would rate it very fair at 4.0-4.2 the pizza is slightly better than your normal pizza food takeaway. - the wings are absolutely delicious! Charcoal wings!!!!! - the interior is okay, not bad but could do with an modest update. Overall I would say because of the amazing tasting wings! It is a 4.0 from the original 3.8 [ previous rating improvement as things have been resolved, getting rid of lazy staff and card machine/customer service improvement.

Great place to meet and eat with friends. Reasonably priced and in a reasonable located place in the Birmingham City Centre. Pizzas look delicious and freshly made on order but the Arabic main courses were the ones that took my interest. Fresh juices are made on order and certainly refreshing. Staff polite and friendly.

Pizza too soggy but good taste nevertheless.

Absolutely amazing food! Definitely recommend charcoal grilled half chicken. FRESHLY juiced fruit drinks Complimentary Arabian Tea and bread AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE, every staff member in this restaurant deserves a medal of honour GREAT FOOD!

I've already tried the pizza and the mediterranean dishes here, and they're both delicious. They also have some nice fresh juices.

Best pizza in Birmingham, hands down

Food was great, price was reasonable too

I have to say, the pizza is the best that I’ve had outside Italy. The staff are excellent - they allowed my little boy to look at how the pizza is made and cooked. It made his day! I would thoroughly recommend going there.

Very good experience 👌 👏 👍 highly recommended 👌

Had the most extraordinary grill mix in the UK at a very affordable price. The place is very nice and the atmosphere is extremely suitable for family and kids.

Wow! After a day of wandering around, we spotted this on our travels. You know a place is good, when it is busy early evening and we weren't disappointed. Great prices and one of the best pizza's I have tasted in the UK. Enjoy.

Lovely fresh food. The alcohol free tiramisu is a must. Customer service was very good. Our server was Huda was really helpful.

This is a great restaurant with helpful, smiley staff and delicious food. The pizzas are huge and stonebaked. The chips are excellent. We also really enjoyed the chicken shashlik with houmous and lovely vine leaves. The prices are very reasonable. An unpretentious, friendly atmosphere. I will be recommending this place to friends and family.

The food and the staff are lovely. But is not the cleanest place, especially the toilets need a bit of attention.

Halal Middle Eastern food with excellent service. The waiters and staff are happy to assist in selecting your menu. They specialise in grilled lamb and chicken with sides. Food is delicious with a good price standard for a restaurant in a city centre. They have seats for kids and would add more seats for adults happily if required.

It really is the best in Birmingham

Very lovely customer service and the servers are so kind. The food is amazing, I totally recommend🙌

We have only good good words for La Vera. Excellent service and food throughout! All staff very polite and helpful, took good care of our family in every aspect. The lamb kofta dish was of a great taste and very large, so no appetisers necessary. I ordered chips instead of rice and felt that it was the best choice! The natural juice out of this world and lots of range. Made there and then fresh. Environment generally clean, a bit more cleaning should probably be done at the toilet. Relaxing background music. The only downside? Nothing italian in there :)

Pizza och kycklingsås har ingen smak. Inne i en rökrestaurang. Jag är sjuk och det gör ont i bröstet

Great taste of pizza, great service and one off the best fresh juice..5*

Excellent food good service friendly only down side was it was cold in the restaurant. That said I would rather keep my coat on and be able to afford the food 😂

Hidden treasure, had Salmon and rice which came with tahini sauce and hummus. Can't fault any of it. Add the fact that customer service was spot on, they've got a new loyal customer

Great place for pizza and cotollete

Amazing Service the Ladies are soo cute !

The Cazole Pizza was Awesome, Highly recommended. We tried the La Vera as well, you can try that one as well.

Ordered pizza and watched hot pizza being delivered from oven with hungry anticipation.outer crust cooked but whole of centre of pizza very watery and pizza base mushy.We ate it because we were hungry but really the pizza was not so nice.

Easily the best Pizza place in Birmingham, nice big portion, and is cooked nicely and perfectly, with amazing service and atmosphere, 100% recommended.

A good choice of mediterranean food. The only bad thing is that the service is extremely slow. The food tasted fresh.

For some reason the pizza was not up to normal expectation. Half baked.

Hidden Gem! I've been here a few times now and the Pizza is phenomenal. Rubbish pizza is accepted in the UK. Wood Fired pizza is a treat. It shouldn't be! It should be like this, it should be realy pizza! And thats exactly what you get at La Vera! Today I took my 6 year old son, a big critic whenever it comes to food, and as declared to the staff..... 1 Million out of 10. Wood fired pizzas usually come with a hefty price tag, I paid 7 quid for a Margherita, and its fantastic. The staff are very courteous, and they give you boxed should you not be able to finish the mammoth meals. Hidden gem of Birmingham, real pizza!

Food is fantastic, meet kebab is the best . Pizza as well very delicious!

Excellent customer service, food presentation 8/10 value for money 8/10 keep up the hard work

Excellent food! Very tasty. Good price. Good location. Sometimes you need to wait for your order a bit long

MY favourite place....Halal tasty food....well presented.....very friendly staff...highly recommended👍 A must try place...you will love it🥰

Beautiful place to eat pizza or BBQ meet. The place is big and spacious has a terrace and upstairs seating. I tried the chicken & Shish plater , it was just perfect……. Lovely and well marinated chicken the chips were perfect , the most natural detox juice ginger and carrot … all was great …. The service was impeccable , the toilets were average they did not have soap.

Perfect pizza please don’t change anything about it
