Mama Earth Restaurant in Solihull

Saturday 12th October 2024, My husband and I went out with friends Liz and Jason to ‘Miller & Carter’ at Resorts World at the NEC. Our dinner was booked for 7.00 pm, we arrived and was shown to a nice table for four with comfortable chairs in there very busy and noisy restaurant. We had to talk loud to each other as the noise level was very high. The table was nicely laid out but they were very close to other diners, which made it feel very cramped. A waiter brought us the menu to look at, there was a nice selection of meals to chose from and a good wine and drinks list. I had raging toothache and taken a lot of pain killers, so I had to be mindful of what I was going to eat and drink. Mark, Liz and I did not bother with starters but Jason had a starter of char-grilled king prawns, which he said were nice but messy. The wait between Jason's starter and the main meals was long - one and a half hours, which is not good. For our main courses My husband and Liz had the rump of lamb served pink with Dauphinoise potatoes, broccoli, peas & broad bean puree and a rich red wine jus, the lamb they said just melted in the mouth. I had the ‘Sea Bass’ fillet with Dauphinoise potatoes, char-grilled Mediterranean vegetables, pea puree and tomato tapenade, which was very nice. Jason had the 16oz Ribeye Steak, which he said was delicious served with peppercorn sauce, a wedge of lettuce with a stilton & blue cheese sauce and baby new potatoes. We washed all this lovely food down with 2 pints of ‘Atlantic’ Bitter for Mark, Jason had 2 pints of ‘Peroni’, Liz had an ‘Old Moot’ berries cider and I had two ‘Strawberry Fair’ none alcoholic cocktails. We all had desserts, Mark and Jason had the New York Style Cheesecake. Liz had the Lemon Tart with raspberry sorbet and whipped cream. I had the ‘Tiramisu’, which was lovely and light and the perfect finish to our meal. If the tables were better spaced and the noise levels not so loud and the wait for food to long, I would have rated it excellent, but in this case only very good.

We had a fantastic meal at Miller and Carter, Donna was an attentive and lovely waitress, making sure our meal was perfect (which it was!) and ensuring we were looked after. Couldn’t have asked for a better waitress—really made our evening! Thank you :)

I had my baby shower here as it’s one of my favourite restaurants. I have to say the service was outstanding. Nothing was too much bother and the staff are always friendly. Mario the manager made my baby shower joyful and made sure we had everything we needed for a great experience. I always look forward to visiting as the atmosphere is calm whether you’re popping in for a few drinks or food. I’ll be back soon

This is definitely worth a visit! The lovely warm and efficient Fara was a great help when we made our choices of the truly delicious food, opting for a selection of the smaller plates. Great atmosphere and cosy seating to.

It was our first time having a bottomless brunch at a TGI Fridays and we had the best time. Alison was so lovely and attentive, she made some great recommendations. We’d happily come back again.
