Millennium Balti in Birmingham

Excellent food, terrible delivery. I am disabled and live in sheltered accommodation but the delivery driver was refusing to enter the building, "because it's a block of flats and we're not allowed to go in." What about the hundreds of others who do?

Shocking service 30 minutes waiting for collection after advised ready to collect. Food tasted funny lamb bhuna tasted like a sweet an sour sauce and the chicken tikka balti was watery and lacked flavour. Not a good experience and will not order again from here

Delicious food i will order this again and again

The food was late and very disappointing. Chicken tikka was unlike any I have had before and not in a good way. Chicken was extremely dry, even in the curry. I would not recommend eating here.

was quite disappointed with my meal tonight ordered chicken tikka madras and got some chicken with some spices thrown on it didn't resemble any chicken tikka I've had before definitely not been marinated as it was quite flavourless had the same with my mixed kebab starter. it was edible but not enjoyed.

Over 2 hours wait time for delivery, food was barely warm, hugely disappointing.

Came to Milennium to have a meal with our family to celebrate my partners birthday. We love to come here and have been coming here for quite a few years now and always enjoyed it. We have visually impaired family members and the staff are always welcoming and supportive when we arrive and ensure we are well looked after throughout our visit. I had fish pakora and sea bass (fancied double fish this time) and it neither disappointed. My partners brother doesn't like his taste buds much so he enjoyed the naga, which he is developing quite a taste for. They do a special where you get a starter, a main and a side as well as coffee or ice cream to finish. We always have this. Their best starters in my opinion are chana chom chom and chicken chaat on puri. I'd recommend the Chettinad lamb, any of the fish dishes and the chicken or vegetable dhansak. I don't recommend the prawn cocktail, I've heard it's lovely, but when you have freshly cooked Indian food on offer, why would you? See you soon. Just a couple of weeks until my birthday!

Nearly empty and still had to wait over hour for main meal. No apology given. Food good. Service.bad

Food ok but the service was terrible .had to wait one hour from end of starters to get the main course .attitude of the waiter was terrible .the air conditioning is always on and makes the place very cold as the table was directly underneath it

Really good food Staff are really very friendly and polite Lovely posh restaurant Very clean Lovely evening out Dhansak was spot on…

The food was lovely and the staff were very polite and kind it was very clean and highgenic thw toilets were nice and clean well decorated and nice music the chairs were comfy

Everything was tasteless, meat starters were not cooked properly.

Gran ambiente, buena comida, buen precio (usamos la oferta de oferta de comida) tenía una comida encantadora! ¡Gracias! ¡Volveremos!

Order over uber for the first time. Had high hopes for the chicken garlic masala but it was really not upto the mark, first of all it was sweet and secondly it lacked salt. Nothing really stands out.

long wait for delivery . and naan was quite small. chapli kebab was very dry and tastelss .lamb karahi was good

Excellent service and good quality food. Thank you

i’ve been coming with my family since i was 13. i’ve always been made to feel very welcome. love the food and staff, would recommend to anyone.

lovely hot food. Generous portions

Good service, comfort environment and fantastic food!

Food was late and extremely greasy

Really tasty once again as we tried some new dishes, super stuff and great value as always.

Awful delivery service, hour & 40 minutes, then the order was missing the nan bread, by the time it came we'd eaten it, which by the way was luke warm and very bland, always use millennium for either a sit down or delivery service, never again I can promise you that. What am I supposed to do with a Peshawar nan & an already eaten balti that's how long it took for the nan to be delivered, no refund either, driver just sped off, abysmal. Avoid this restaurant.

Great food and such a lovely delivery driver

Food was cold nan breads were both totaly black with burn food was thrown away

Very average, better curry places around, but the prices are very good and make up for it.

Visited as take away and dine-in. Food was great & service was friendly. A great new local ☺️

Thankyou meal was lovely compliments to the chef and delivery service. *****

Love this restaurant but nearly two and a half hours for a delivery is just unacceptable. Hopefully

fish had skin on which is really off putting in a curry

Our food was good & worth the wait.

Ordered for collection on a Saturday evening, order was actually ready 5 mins before the estimated time, staff were friendly, restaurant was busy too which is great to see, and the food was really delicious. Interesting menu with a fair few regional dishes, great to see some options outside the norm. A great choice.

Free popadoms and raita too, can't be bad.

Waited 2 hrs for food so far… still not here. I rang the restaurant who couldn’t have cared less. No offer of a refund or partial refund. Absolutely shocking

Lovely food hot and tasty definitely will be ordering from you soon guys thank you for the lovely food tonight ❤️xxx

food is ok, decent portion sizes. taste is perfect is you like mild food... but it's not for me

Took 2 hours to arrive. Starters were fine. Main course bang average. Won’t be using again.

Ordered on Monday food was amazing. ordered today, over 2 hours to get here (1 mile away) poppadoms smashed to bits, baltis were full of water, bland. was like chicken soup. hardly any garlic in the tiny naan breads,no apology for the lateness. shocking. what have you done? changed chief? or let a child practise cookery club. horrible food. never again

Food was cold and we ordered a paratha not a roti

Woeful! If you need me to elaborate I can, but you won’t like what I have to say.

Great food Nan was banging rate 1000/10 good value for money big up akhmad

The curry isn’t bad, but everything else is boss man wouldn’t even sort the refund out. Just offering me discount on my next order like I’m gonna go back there.

Very good service with a friendly delivery service and really good tasting food

really enjoyed the meal, plenty of meat in the lamb, chicken baltis, great keema nans, delivery driver was great and very polite 10/10

Me and my partner just had beautiful food along with excellent service,the staff were very attentive and friendly. Would definitely recommend, A*. Thankyou Millennium.

always order from here. best tasting balti ever and love that they do a quorn version. Will always use these guys. very friendly delivery drivers and good value for money

Part of the order didn’t arrive. It was only a small side so it wasn’t the end of the world.

Food was not great at all.food was cold and inedible as the curry was cold and looks clumped up. i will not be ordering from here again end of.

the lamb was tiny 1cm pces I counted 7 ridiculous not a curry at all!! starters were tiny too. won't be ordering again avoid!!

Lovely food and delivery on time

Constant quality - Food labeled as Gluten free and if you comment on order notes, they will phone to confirm allergy requirements.

I had an amazing experience here The food was full of authentic flavors, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The chicken tikka masala was rich and flavorful, and the naan was perfect. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. Highly recommend for anyone looking for delicious Indian cuisine!

Brilliant food and service on New Years day!, travelled from Australia, grew up in local area of Solihull Lodge and used to come here with my mates.. just been with my dad second time since I've been back, always good food and friendly service.. definitely recommend! All the best happy new year

Very nice food brilliant service all of the staff was very helpful and polite whilst serving our food and drinks will deffinetely return

So good Very tasty Quick delivery and super friendly delivery man. I put the food into a large tray to show how much you get. I had meal of choice Egg fried rice Mixed kebab Butter chicken and salad with popadoms.

Fantastic food and very friendly delivery man.

Always great service and great food. Nice ambiance, polite staff, never waiting too long for food to turn up. Always busy so an idea to book ahead

I came here for a meal with family, food and service was absolutely brilliant, staff are very attentive and the food was piping hot and fresh. They also gave complimentary coffee and ice cream at the end. We will definitely be back!

Always amazing food and the delivery driver was so nice too

No taste too lamb curry and lamb was cut up so small u couldn’t see it . Cheese Nan had a tiny bit off cheese on . Rice was watery . Used too be lovely here but won’t buy again

This Indian will always be my number one go to. I’ve never gone and sat in. Always had it ordered and I always get the same guy delivering. He makes my day! Super energetic, remembers names, has a laugh. The food is just unreal! Amazing portions and always fresh. Love love love this place

my food was delicious and bang on time. I had lamb koria which was absolutely delicious. my partners nags chicken was hot but very nice. Will definitely br ordering again

very disappointed with food , tandoori mixed grill not fresh ..wouldn't order again not worth the price ....

First time ordering from here just came across by accident. Food was amazing, we chose the £14.50 meal and was amazed at the quanity of food but also the quality. Very very tasty dishes, lovely chicken in nice portions, 5/5 without a doubt. Amazing!

I have been going to the this restaurant for years always delicious food and service is good, great owner who is always checking costumers if they are happy with food and service thank you

Great tasting food and good service every time

enjoyed the food and service. thank you.

Food was lovely, early delivery. What more can you ask for 😃

Food was generally cooked well, subtly flavoured for the most part. Spicy dishes and allergens were clearly labelled. Lots of variety on the menu. The physical menu is a little more extensive than the online version. Service was on the slower side, although staff were nice and polite. Complimentary coffee or ice cream is available after the meal, and chocolates with the bill, which are nice touches.

With regret I must write this negative review. One star is for the quality of the food only, which wasn't bad. It's the SERVICE that was utterly deplorable last night. Our family has been visiting Millennium Balti for years after my parents found it once when they were visiting me. My elderly father really wanted to go there last night as he's loyal to supporting this local business and the staff are usually friendly. Not last night. Granted, it was BUSY. However we did book in advance. The table we were shown to was not properly laid and there were no glasses, napkins or drinks menu. We were quickly served poppadums but our drinks order was not taken for ages (we used a menu from another table). We ordered food and still no napkins or glasses. I asked for them and we got given some glasses but not napkins so I had to go and physically get them myself which was a bit embarrassing having to explain this to the poor guy behind the counter. My dad made it very clear he wanted a king prawn balti. But he got served a dry chicken dish that he did not want. He sent it back requesting the king prawn balti. What eventually arrived (he'd eaten his rice side dish by this point) was a king prawn tandoori but I didn't realise this until after my dad requested some balti sauce to go with it because it was so dry. This then duly arrived. We enjoyed our meals but we never felt we could ask the waiters anything because they were always dealing with other customers and nobody asked if they could help with anything. When it came to desserts, we ordered one thing from the menu that someone else in our party wanted. My dad just wanted some ice cream. The waiter said "That's only available if we give it to you for free". I asked if this could be arranged and he confirmed it could. He asked me if I wanted a desert. I asked if the complimentary ice cream could be extended to me too. He replied that if I wanted a dessert, I could choose something from the menu (i.e. a paid item). I declined. Later once the desserts appeared, the same waiter asked me again if I wanted to choose a dessert from the menu. Again I declined, somewhat perplexed. Was he trying to make a point, that I did not quality for a 'free ice cream'? Other diners in the restaurant were being served complimentary ice cream. They also appeared to be dining from tables that had glasses and napkins on there. So really we felt a little put out. Anyway, I went to settle the bill and to my surprise, the additional balti sauce that my dad had ordered as they got his meal wrong, was added to the bill. Not wishing to make a scene and managing elderly father and other family members, I just paid it but did not leave a tip. And today I am thinking that we will NEVER come to Millenium Balti again. The staff were rude, inattentive and the service was beyond sloppy. Most of all, we felt so unwelcome there. Well, don't worry Millennium Balti because we won't trouble you with our presence again. Thankfully there are other much nicer restaurants in the area selling similar south Asian cuisine, and who understand what it is like to provide a little bit of basic customer service.

Food really nice delivery on time 👍👍

Delicious food and excellent hospitality. Butter chicken melts in your mouth and the nans were fresh and light. Will definitely come again

we all enjoy the food plenty of food left 😋

Massive order, arrived on time, fantastic food

Driver got lost ... Then when he arrived he hinted that I order from somewhere closer to my home because it took him 30 mins to get to me. Don't they have Sat navs ??? He also said that in the comment section that I should enter my personal phone number so they can ring me when they get lost in traffic. You simply couldn't make it up...

Best curry we've had in a while, not oily or greasy, really tasty, rice was abit undercooked. delivery took 1 hour 35 minutes from ordering so maybe we just order for collection in the future.

Another great meal. We have been ordering or visiting this place for years now and always have a great meal.

I used to go here regularly until Covid and changes in circumstances. Returned this evening for the first time in 3 years. Has been refurbished and different floor plan. Nice welcome . Owner,/Manager remembered me as well as a few of the waiters. Good service and meals and portion sizes were great. £13.95 for starter, main, rice/naan/ roti/ chips (choice of) and a coffee or ice cream. Bargain. Nice to go back.

hot tasty food delivered on time with all items

Food took 3 hours and was absolutely foul I wouldn’t have served that up to my dog loads of items missing not what you expect when spending £125 on a takeaway for 6 people!!!

Always great taste and service, thank you

First time ordering. Would definitely order again. Lovely food

The delivery driver called me and made me give him directions from quite a distance away, he could of used a gps from his phone? And he called me more than once

Had a lovely time, staff attentive ,will definitely go again

had a chicken saag balti last night was so bad no flavor no spice the price was cheep empty at 10.30 a few nice diners joined me poor curry for the locals looks good but so tasteless

Freezing cold curry not happy at all

Fantastic food & large portions. Delivery was a bit earlier than estimated time, dr

It was amazing and full of flavour

Had a wonderful night of friends and food at the Millennium. We shared dishes. The Lasooni Gosht + Millennium Naan were my faves. The atmosphere and service was great and the waiters happily took loads of photos for us. Keep up the excellent work.

I don't often post reviews, but I was genuinely surprised by this hidden gem. We went for date night. Great atmosphere and lots of interesting house specialities. Thoroughly recommend the Mumbai Frankie Roll, only if your hungry, very filling starter. Wife loved her Dynamite Jingha (pawns). Feeling adventurous I asked for a recommendation over my usual Madras, and our waiter, Imran recommended the Lasooni Gosht, it didn't disappoint! New favourite. Will be back soon.

Great service, food and atmosphere. Millennium Balti hosted our group on a last minute get together. We were expertly guided through the extensive menu by our waiter Ahmed, who dealt with our different requirements and numerous questions with grace and patience. A few of the standout dishes from our visit. Starters: fish pakora, lamb shahlick and tandoori lamb chops. Mains: Garlic Chilli Lamb Masala and Lamb Bhuna Madras. The service was great, and we didn't feel rushed and will be returning soon.

Staff were very cheerful on our arrival! Staff were very helpful with recommendations and suggestions. Food was amazing. Will definitely recommend to friends and family. Imran in particular was very helpful, cheerful and accommodating, listened to our needs and was extremely helpful. Atmosphere was great too!

Beautiful place to dine excellent food and great servic

The food here is amazing and customer service is even better, me and my family were treated very kindly by the workers and they were on standby whenever we needed anything, we were attended to on time and food arrived with no delay to fulfil my stomach’s needs! Me and my family really enjoyed our time and food here in Millennium Balti, will definitely be coming back. 11/10 I highly suggest you feast here! 😁

Lovely atmosphere, staff friendly and attentive and food was very nice- great value for money, esp if you opt for the weekly deal

Used this place many times and normally ok however this evening while speaking to a member of staff to amend a order the staff member was so rude and had a disgusting attitude. Will never use again and will make sure friends and family know about this. This member of staff needs customer service training. Ended up cancelling the order big loss. You will loose many more customers if you treat them like you did me this evening.

Quality food excellent service

Driver keeps complaining they don’t deliver this far but obviously do and food is amazing

Great food, nice portions; happy with a full belly.
