Masala Club Indian Restaurant in Solihull

The best Indian food I’ve ever had !!! 10/10 I definitely recommend

Absolutely banging food 10/10 made a mistake with tikka gave me chicken instead of lamb but bought me a lamb anyway gave so many extras with out asking on the house and resolved everything so friendly and can't recommend this place enough Absolutely banging food you won't be disappointed best Indian restaurant I've been to with out a doubt and I eat out most nights class place!

Fantastic place, impeccable service and irresistible food. Meriden Spice is my favourite Indian restaurant so I came here to Masala club see how it is. I was very pleased to see that they have managed to bring the same great tasting food and service. The best thing is that the restaurant it's self is a big upgrade from the other Meriden Spice. Couldn't fault a thing and highly recommend to anyone seeking great food and service

A great experience with excellent service!!!!!!!!

We had a really enjoyable dinner with very attentive staff. It is great to see Saj back in charge again and wish him well in this venture. I took another friend who was impressed with the trouble the staff took to make sure she enjoyed her meal. Looking forward to my next visit. The chicken sag wala is superb

Absolute great everything !! Great food , great atmosphere , lovely staff . Would definitely recommend for a good night out .

Fantastic food, so fresh, absolutely delicious. Staff are all so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. We visit week after week and it’s consistently great.

First time there this evening, certainly won’t be the last. Food was absolutely delicious, plenty of choice across the menu, you could taste the freshness, which isn’t always the case in other restaurants. The staff were extremely friendly and polite, as was the owner. Cared enough to have a chat but didn’t infringe on us whilst having our meal. Would thoroughly recommend 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Qué comida tan fantástica tuvimos allí el pollo tandoori que tuve fue tan delicioso mejor que he tenido , el personal era tan amable nada era demasiado para ellos siempre preguntando si todo estaba bien vamos a ir allí de nuevo en un futuro próximo.

I moved local to Masala Club 2 years ago and always enjoyed the food. A few months ago it came under new ownership (I understand the original owner from years ago) and the food and service although previously good has noticeably improved. I'm in danger of putting on weight as I just want to eat here all the time! Recently had a party and asked them to cater for it. Saj (the new owner) made the process painless and was able to provide a competitive price. It was hassle free, we had a great party and everyone loved the food.

Great staff, lovely food. Would recommend for anyone when in the area.

Had family meal last night at masala club. Great food as always staff were brilliant. Recommended it.

Came tonight with family. Again had a lovely meal. All the family enjoyed it. New manager very kind. Staff were excellent. Would recommend.

Came with my Dad who’s been here many times over 15 years. Saj who owned it back when he first went owns it again now and was incredibly welcoming. The food was excellent, will go again if I’m in the area!

Perfect birthday meal. Always reliable and unbeatable food!

Lovely meal this evening, great service, was made very welcome by saj and his son Jay. Food was of a good standard and very tasty. Certainly plan on eating here again !

Tasty Food. Friendly Team. What more could you ask for?

Wow wow Wow. Just had the best curry in a very long time , food excellent with brilliant warm friendly service, these guys know their stuff, would highly reccomend. Beautifull !

Fabulous meal and service this evening. Starters and Curries were great.

Been here a couple off times now ,never have had a bad meal ,waiters are attentive and polite ,had tandoori trout massala ,and it was very good ,never eaten a Indian fish dish before ,but I would from now on

Much improved! Great food, friendly staff

Great to come back here after (decades!?) and find the original owner back in charge. Superb food. Great service snd welcome. Great quality, freshly cooked food. A small but caring team bring this place back to greatness again. Well worth a visit for a good curry. Chicken Tilka was sizzling hot and the fresh naan from the over was delicious!

We had a lovely meal at Masala tonight, the food was delicious. Good to see Saj back at the helm. We highly recommend you go and give it a try. We'll be back

Myself and my father visited here tonight on the way to Birmingham Airport. It was absolutely delicious!!! Staff were amazing, and the food was exceptional. Will definitely be returning!!

Excelente comida y gran servicio. Probé un plato que no había probado antes (Karahi de Cordero) y estaba delicioso. El Club Masala ha sido inconsistente en el pasado, pero ambos disfrutamos de una comida encantadora en esta ocasión.

Amazing food and great service!

I took my family for a meal this evening to the Masala Club, after hearing that it had been taken over by Saj and his son Jay again and how nice the food was. Well it didn’t disappoint. The food was beautiful, full of flavour without being over powering. The service was spot on, very friendly and helpful, just as it used to be.

Good to see the previous owner/Manager back running it after 10 years away. It hadn’t been as good for a long while, so had a takeaway last night which was like the old days and very good. Will return back again now as I know others will.

La comida es fabulosa, un montón de opciones, pero es el servicio que se destaca. Saj era muy atento y amable. Volveremos.

Buena comida y excelente servicio. Encantado de ser recibido por viejos amigos con una sonrisa. Ha pasado un tiempo desde que visitamos, después de una mala experiencia, volveremos!

Excelente comida, excelente servicio, excelente noche! Esta fue nuestra primera visita. El personal es muy acogedor y fue atento en todo momento, ofreciendo bebidas, etc. La comida era fantástica, no podía faltar. Saj y el equipo hicieron un trabajo maravilloso y sin duda volveremos. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Buena comida, sin duda recomendaría. Acabo de tomar el más delicioso cordero keema. No puede faltar el servicio y el personal tan amable

Visited the Masala Club for a festive family dinner, and I must say not only was the food excellent, but the service was friendly and attentive too. Thank you so much Masala Club Common

I never dined in only had a takeaway..Highly recommend this place definitely the best of the 3 Indian takeaways in Balsall Common.

Was seated my staff, we knew what we wanted so we tried 3 times to order only to be fobbed off. Eventually someone else came over and ask they can’t take our order because there is a 45 minute wait. I asked why we weren’t told when before we sat down and the response was ‘why didn’t you ask’ The staff are rude and service is a disgrace. We didn’t eat here and as a result of the experience and way we were spoken to, we never will. I would suggest going to an alternative!

Food Hygiene Rating is only 3, website advertises 5* abit dodgy that !

ABSOLUTE JOKE OF A PLACE! STAFF ARE RUDE AND ARROGANT!!! AWFUL!!!

Food that we had was good , unfortunately waiting time wasn’t poor , they seem to be more motivated by take away orders than the diners

Food was prepared on time although it was a bit bland

Great dining experience. The food was very clean and tasteful. Highly recommended.

So disappointed. We are regular visitor to the masala club but feel cheated regarding the Mon , Tue £ 15 deal. Starte , main , rice or naan plus coffee .. Because we ordered poppadoms for starter , two mains , only one naan no rice and only 1 coffee.. we had to pay individually so worked out over £10 more expensive!! How ridiculous that we ordered less food and paid more . Even when we challenged it they didn’t alter the bill!! Beware ..

Went there with my wife a couple of weeks ago, the place was quiet, we new we were off to a bad start when instead of being shown to a table the guy just pointed at one and walked off. Trying to order anything was hard work as the staff just seemed to talk to themselves rather than look after the customers. The food was OK but nothing special. I would never go there again.

Fantastic curry and service as always!!

I went with some colleagues from work and we had to wait over 30 minutes to order. The only order they took was if we wanted some poppadoms, then, we had to wait another 20 minutes to order the starters and mains. Staff didn't pay attention to any of our orders, and they placed drinks and the food to whoever was the closest to them. It was quite an entertainment.

I solo ate here while working at the NEC or staying nearby. I opted for the Chicken Tikka which was fantastic. A huge portion of chicken not the usual few chunks one often gets. For the main, I opted for the mix balti which was equally excellent. Friendly and attentive service and a genuinely solid curry house experience.

best restaurant in the village go here a lot recommend the peshwari naan and butter chicken

Good food at a reasonable price. Experienced a bit of a delay when collecting takeaway booked on line. Probably better to place order by phone.

As ever the Masala Club continues to deliver best in class food on such a consistent basis. Whether it's a Tawa, a dansak, a pathia or a kashia lamb the flavours are always spot on, meat always tender and always very well presented. The Kingfisher always consistent too and decent wine and spirits options. The service is eager to please, extremely polite and friendly with Merlin and Ahmed offering customer service above and beyond. They are always open to requests whether that be the spice strength of your chosen meal, advice on what meal may suit you best or indeed a dish that may not necessarily be on the menu. Always a pleasure to visit, a treat to always look forward to and hopefully we'll be back very soon.

Really enjoyed the meal. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend. Restaurant was very clean throughout, free parking outside certainly a benefit!

Always love coming here, great service and great food 🙏🏼

Very nice service! Went there years and place is very cozy and quiet. Really spent well time there. Enjoyed our nice table dinner. Everyone loved food and service. Staff is very friendly and professional. Thank you to the manager Merlin aka Mursalin for the free Brandy shots at the end to make our dining experience extra special.

Excellent food, Excellent Service, Been there twice and both times it was satisfying. Lovely atmosphere around the restaurant. Food was amazing. Will return for sure.

Had a lovely meal staff were pleasant 😊 very reasonable too

Always a great experience here! Great staff! Why no poppadums on take-away anymore though?

I will never go to this place again. First of all, the manager was absolutely headstrong and rude to us when we politely asked for him to take our order. There were flies around our table and a spider on my napkin. We inquired it with the manager and he, after asking about it with another table who said there were no flies, said that we were lying. He also ignorantly said that if we weren't satisfied with the state of the restaurant we should just go. So we just left. Whilst leaving, the same manager uttered phrases such as the F word. Absolutely appalling. Staff are blind to complaints made by costumers. Wouldn't recommend going here.

Very poor service n arogant loud n foul mouthed waiter. Horrible food hygine -found pesky flies n crawling spider across table. Unaccetable behaviour from waiter when raised regarding the same. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Seriously the staff should retrain them selves to be in the business. So arrogant.

There were files and spiders on the table When informed the Manager, he was rude and abusive They were Saying that we made it up. They team had no manners nor the courtesy to talk the customer Very horrible place to eat You will on your risk of getting food poisoned

Had a take away ordered lamb madras and veg rice could not believe when I got it home how much broccoli and what seemed like frozen mixed veg on it never had this on a madras before and we’ll disappointed lived in Balsall common for years and been a while since I went here and will he years again sorry but not sure why was expected

Food was excellent service can't fault very friendly staff and helpful.

Really one of the best Curry houses in the area. Food fab. Lovely atmosphere and such friendly staff. My friend isn't a big curry fan but loved the good and drink.

Nice restaurant, friendly staff, food is quite nice but does not stand out from many other places.

Ordered butter chicken- but its not like the authentic butter chicken. Disappointed. If u know what real indian/pakistani/bengali food tastes like then this is a definite not to go to place.

Service was dreadful, and although you could make excuses as we were a large group, for a lot of the time we were the only people in the restaurant. We had to wait over 1.5 hrs for our main courses to arrive, one was cold and had to be sent back, others were warm but not hot. The service wasn't great and you didn't feel welcome. The food itself was indifferent, some of us had quite decent food, but my lamb was quite tough and had quite a lot of sinewy bits. There was little spice heat in the dishes particularly the naga curries, Considering some of the previous reviews this was a particularly disappointing experience

We stayed at the Premier Inn while exhibiting at an expo at the NEC and ended up eating at the Masala Club 2 nights in a row because it was so good! Merlin (forgive me if I've spelled your name wrong) and the other staff were fantastic. He made sure we had everything we needed, suggested dishes we'd like and the food was exquisite. Many dishes we had not seen before!

Horrible experience waited 1 and a half hours for our food and didn’t come our multiple people had the same experience wouldn’t recommend and I am definitely not doing there again

what a lovely experience!! staff are so friendly and polite, food came and good time and was piping hot! would 100% recommend, amazing night, thank you!

We’ve been going to Masala Club for many years and the food has always been good. However the staff are all so unfriendly that it spoils the dining experience. Not one member of staff smiled the whole evening. We all enjoyed our meals as usual. Come on guys, look as if you want customers to be there!!

My friends and I visited here on New Year’s Eve and the food was delicious it was well presented and excellent value for money Looking forward to our next visit

We went for a family meal and the restaurant looks alright, it's open plan so no booths so it's very noisy and hard to hear each other talking, the food took ages to come but my sizzling tikka was amazing so tender and full of flavour it really was delicious, my partners a vegetarian so had alu gobi and a nan bread but it came dry with no sauce which she wasn't too happy with and there was 0 complaints on the food quality apart from that,

2nd visit…. first dined in faultless 2nd time today foodcollected. Popodoms very stale ….speaks volumes about a restuarant 2 dishes Chicken Tilka Masala poor . Overloaded with thick slices of garlic Rice stodgy . King Prawn Massala smells too fishy ….won’t revisit eating in or out

Food was solid, the Lamb Karahi didn’t have tender meat and the onion flavours weren’t balanced with the other spices. Keema naan was lacking in flavour and 3 poppadoms came to £5.80 which was a little steep. Overall it wasn’t bad but nothing special.

Great place for mid week catch-up with some old friends. Excellent food expertly prepared by the chef to our taste. Service was superb despite Merlin not being there that night.

Tried here as the reviews were so good but we were left a little disappointed. On entry to the restaurant the carpet was dirty and needed sweeping not the best start. We waited a little while to be asked if we wanted drinks and when we did order they took ages to come despite the restaurant only being a third full. The waiter who took our order came over and said you need to choose your food now please, but abrupt we thought but we ordered. Second drinks too even longer to come I had to ask three times in the end. The food was average, good sizes portions of curry but rice portions were small. Wasn’t the Cheapest for the food we had - we wouldn’t return.

A very clean restaurant with friendly staff. I’d happily go again. However if I do go again I’ll be far more vociferous in requesting a second pint of beer. No matter who I asked all I got was “Certainly Sir”. Very polite, but no beer. The meal was tasty and plentiful. Mmmmm balti.

Fantastic food, absolutely awesome.. service is 5 star too … awesome and highly recommended

After being recommended this restaurant, we looked forward to eating here but ended up with mixed feelings. Starters were fine and the mains were reasonably tasty, if a little hotter than expected, and good portions, so no complaints there. The problem was the windy after-effects, with bubbly stomachs and several trips to the bathroom over the course of the night. Won't go again.

Came here because merkatt meals gave me buy one get one free! Ahmed and staff we’re very accommodating and gave us exceptional service. Prawn balti and mixed was beautiful, full of flavour not oily and didn’t walk away with yellow fingers. Definitely will be coming...

Brilliant service - welcoming and personal Food is excellent and never disappoints Would definitely recommend

Always a pleasure coming here, the service is always brilliant, particularly from Mersalin, would highly recommend coming here!

Had a meal last night and the place was dead, it took over an hour to get our starters. I had a starter I didn't order then my starter came with my main, I couldn't eat it as it was tasteless. They did give us drinks as an apology but it was a spoilt evening.

Terrible service got our order wrong and the food is bland

Amazing food amazing place amazing wine well recommend the original masala club balsall commin
