Syrian House in Birmingham - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Platter for 4 was more than enough for a family of 5. Everything was tasty. We all enjoyed it. Would stop over again (we were driving past Birmingham).

Solid platter for 4, can't complain.

I have been wanting to visit for a while now, I wonder why I didnt go before?? Food was so tasty! Had the mezze to share and the falafel and warak 3enab where delicious!! Mutabbal and Hummus very nice as well. We also had a delicious mixed grilled and chicken shawarma, price was very reasonable for a family of 4 and they have private sitting at the back, will definitely be going back soon InshaAllah!!

This place is always a win! Very friendly service (we've been coming here a while now, and one of the waiters recognises us)! Food is absolutely delicious, and the portions are generous! Prices are great too! We tend to spend around £10-£15 a head and always leave with lunches for the next day! Thanks again, and see you again soon!

I’ve never been to the restaurant but the food is beyond AMAZING! I always go for the platters with beautifully cooked rice and meats that are grilled to perfection. A family favourite in our house!

My favourite place for Lamb Mandi and platter for 5. No match of this platter food for Arabic category. Only problem with this restaurant is they do not accept card. They take only cash.

What can I say. This place simply brought joy to my heart and stomach. The food was so delicious it felt like I was at home eating a meal made by my mother. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the decor really felt like I was in Syria, the chairs the lights. What made my day was the Staff, as you can see they are incredibly friendly and made sure I was happy and welcomed there. What more can you ask for, good food, good atmosphere and great service. All in all a wonderful place to watch with friends and family.

Very bad experience from the restaurant. I ordered food and waited for 3 hours. They didn't bring the food and i tried to call the restaurant several times. They didn't respond my call.

The food was very flavourful, the meat was cooked to perfection and everything was very affordable too!

Not a perfect taste of Shawarma

Good arab food reasonably priced. Great location on the doorstep of Central Mosque. Good for families, clean toilets & nice decor & atmosphere . No seperate parking, but there is free car park next to Big John's chippy ( 1 minute walk)as well residential parking in addition to the masjid car park if you have prayed their.

Great food, great price, early delivery. No complaints. 5 star food & service. 👍🏻🌟

More of a takeout place than a restaurant. Good value for money. Location and quality of seating are awful. Also arabic bread is not fresh and soup was a mistake

The food at this restaurant was nice! From flavorful hummus to tasty kebabs and falafel, the dishes are authentic and fresh. The ambiance and the service was nice. A must-visit for a delicious Mediterranean experience.

I always get Syrian house for my take aways I can’t never get tired of their food. To recommend the Arabic shawarma and the grilled x2.

Best place! you have to try it. Staff are so friendly, good portion sizes too

Friendly staff, cosy place, delicious food.

Food is good, staff are good, crackheads are a little issue.

الاكل لذيذ والمكان رائع شكرا على الشاي

Food was amazing, service was top. Highly recommend if you’re looking for some decent food on coventry road

Small eatery around the corner from us; we ordered the Arabic shawarma, jawaneh(chicken wings) and falafel. The falafel and wings were tasty but the shawarma was underwhelming. However the rice that came along was flavourful. Will be back to try some other items before writing it off!

We were group of 4 friends Went to the syrian house on sunday We were seated very quickly and had a nice and lovely waiter Food was special This is our 5th visit We were treated with friendly every single time we go there

We collected our food which was overall okay, though we asked and agreed no rice with the platter for 6, chips was offered, but we ended up receiving what felt like even more rice and less meat - gross communication error. There was a little difficulty in requesting “no rice” we had to repeat several times, and though we saw our waiter communicate this to the chef, and all agreed that chips would be offered instead, we got home to find a lot of rice with our order. The meat was good, we expected the kebabs to be larger and flatter, but received something similar to sheek kebab, the lamb mandi was really nice and soft. Considering the amount of meat we got with our platter we wouldn’t recommend these options and stick with the individual mixed grill options.

In my opinion it is amazing place for calming down and relaxing specially these separate rooms I liked that it’s nice for children. When comes to food we just can say it’s fantastic delicious and presenting with wonderful way The guys there friendly and kind Thank you for the tea that they had shared with us free as way of good hospitality. I spent lovely time and promised to come back every time when visit Birmingham

Best place the food was great even though my fat as was still hungry after a big plater but the food actually bangs they gave us free tea free deserts such a nice hospitality

Sorry but I had to do this, Yesterday I had food from this restaurant with my friends order platers and many more stuff. But, unfortunately we all are struggling with food poisoning. I don’t know what’s went wrong, I guess the food wasn’t fresh that’s the reason. Please I request the manager to look after this. Kindly do use fresh food.

Had platter for 4 & 3. Food was lovely.

I tried this resturant the food was amazing and the stuff very kindly I recomand evryone who intersting arabic food to go there

I heard about this restaurant from my friend but when I visited it was amazing and absolutely loved it

Best service ever and best syrian food I tried

My regular take away spot. Food has always been great, and really great value for money.

Best takeaway I've had in Birmingham. Incredible flavours and good amount of food for the price. Just couldn't recommend it more really. Also got a free desert the last time we ordered which was nice.

Food was great. Ambience was also nice.

went few days ago but was disappointed with the service it was hot day i asked the guy for some water he gave me Hot water maybe from hot tap.Not going back

First time here as recommend by friends but I absolutely loved it to perfection. Couldn't complain as food was delicious, fresh, tasty, full of flavours and we really enjoyed it. This was taken yesterday 9th June 2023 ;)

The food tasted beautiful, the rice was so flavoursome and the freshness and taste of the hummus surprised me I will defiantly be ordering again thank you!

My friend and I went there and it was waste of money. Basically It’s leftovers from yesterday, the rice was cold and the chicken was hard to chew. Hopefully there was hot chili because there was to taste at all, it looks like Syrian food but it has nothing to do with Syrian cuisine. The tables were dirty as well.

Food was Pukka. Delivery was a bit too slow but it was during Iftaar so not gonna complain ;)

Très bon restaurant syrien avec quelques spécialités marocaines.

Came as a group of 4. The platter for 4 was more than enough with a lot of variety. Mezze platter was also a good portion. Only negative was that it was quite smokey in the restaurant l.

Affordable delicious food with great service

Was very delicious and nice location, but the costumer service was bad, didn't feel welcome!

Ordered from here multiple times and every time food is fresh and tasty. Ordered plater for 5 massive portion and value for the money getting food from here means guilt free healthy food. Highly recommend definitely Ordering again

Stated order had been delivered but I doubt any food was sent in the first place. This has happened before, they see it’s a hotel, take the order, mark as delivered and then steal your money!

Lovely lamb dish with rice and salad.. I love the pickles.. Great service too... Such quality food every single time... Love it here 👌🏾loves the tea too and the gorgeous cup 💫

Delicious food if you love Syrian food

Bonne cuisine syrienne. Du goût et des quantités conformes. Mais le service est long, le serveur ne parle pas anglais et il faisait un peu froid dans le resto.

Great service, staff are really attentive and warm and the food was also lovely!

Rapport qualité prix bien situé près de centre ville

Came here with the family after visiting the Coventry Road Small Heath branch and both did not disappoint. We order the Platter for 5 and it is cooked fresh and served within roughly 15 minutes along with complimentary salad, and bread with humous and babaganoush. The meat is perfectly cooked, not dry and it's seasoned well. The rice is much better than most places and the portion size overall is really sufficient. Would definitely recommend either branch to go to. The service was really friendly and hospitable and we were given free tea at the end of our meal. Would definitely recommend!

I loved it, you have a lot of choice and the staff is friendly! I definitely recommend it!

Me and my Brother visit Syrian House almost once a month, it's good is unmatched, unrivalled and incomparable. There are many restaurants in Small Heath, and even more in Birmingham, but this has been our favourite, the best we have visited in the 2020s. The lamb Mandi with fries/rice is perfect, so savoury, the lamb so succulent and the fries so crispy. There was a period, where all we did was repeat this order because of how rich it tastes. We love Syrian House, then we invited our whole family and they loved it too. SH is our warm refuge, where the food is plentiful and filling. The customer service was excellent, the chefs and waiter are always very cordial, with impeccable manners. I wish this restaurant plenty of success, because being there became such an amazing new ritual. Will you ever forget the first bite of pizza? Will you ever forget your childhood best friend? Or the feeling of the first time going down a slide at a park? This is the best way I could summarise being at Syrian House, it's an entire authentic Syrian experience, this restaurant in a way is an informal Syrian embassy, it represents the fine culinary gifts of the Syrian people. Bon appetit!!!

So cool place with lovely food and design

Staff are very nice food excellent

طعام لذيذ جدا وفريق عمل رائع كل اسبوع اتي انا والعائلة لتناول اشهى الاطباق اللذيذة

This place is good for Arabian dishes like Shawarma, Mandi rice etc

The food is delicious and the staff are friendly.

Good service, delicious food, reasonable price.

Absolutely fantastic food, recommend highly!

I took my friend here who’s been loving Syrian food and he loved it so much! The food tasted authentic and the decor made me feel like I was in Syria all over again I felt at home the food was so amazing 100/10 everything was perfect thank you for bringing Syria to me definitely coming back here again

I eat over there every week with my friends and this place beats every other middle eastern restaurant I’ve been to in here. I saw some comments regarding the area being unsafe but i have never yet to encounter any situation that made me uncomfortable. Their lamb mandi is my personal favorite.

Horrible food and very expensive. I ordered lamb mandi, the rice and meat was not cooked properly. The restaurant only take cash which is a minus for the one who pays with card. You need to run for cash if the cash machine next to it was not working. Location wise full of druggies. At all cost please avoid this place.

Went to the syrian house on a Sunday evening. Very quiet with only 1 other table being accommodated. We were seated very quickly and had a lovely waiter who helped us order from the menu. Food was delicious! With the meat being so tender and juicy from the mandi. The shawarma was full of flavour and the fish was too. Very good portions with alot to choose from on the menu. Food came out pretty quick. The fresh orange juice was amazing. Felt good in the heat! Definitely reccomend going back. Great people great food and a quality time.

Good shrimp in batter, juicy!!!

The food is exquisite, and the portions are generous. Best Syrian food ever.

Their platters are really a great value for money and very tasty. I we be using them again.

Staff are super friendly, food was tasty and didn't take long to prepare, I loved the Syrian decoration of the restaurant; it has taken me back in time. I'd highly recommend the Syrian House and would love to visit again!

Loved it bought a platter it tasted delicious

Nice and traditional food freshly cooked Lamb dishes were extremely soft

Can’t beat an original Arabian cuisine. We had shawarma and everything to the house sauce was done beautifully. You can tell they really put a lot of passion and love into their food.

Best Arabic shawarma I ever tried

This is my first time to try Syrian’s food. I have ordered Shish Taouk and kofta kebab lamb.It is really delicious and the staffs are very helpful to help me order the food so I’m highly recommend people to try it.

Super friendly , great food, good sized potions and free mint tea at the end. For everything in the photos (plus drinks) it was only about £11 per person! What’s not to like! Worth noting that on the day we went they were open from shortly after 1 o’clock (it was a Saturday) so not sure the times on Google are correct.

Exceptionally friendly staff and some amazing food. As a party of 5, we ordered the mixed mezze of starters and the Sharing Platter as a main, the food was exquisite, with one of our group exclaiming the value for money was incredible as we had spent roughly £11 per head for starters, mains & drinks, of which every mouthful was an absolute delight! Highly recommended.

The shawarma at Syrian house has the potential to be delicious, and I have once had shawarma from Syrian house which is the best I have ever had. There is a but, and that is that most of the time when I order shawarma it comes coated in oil (or fat perhaps?), I once received shawarma from here which was not like that and it tasted amazing. I am not sure if on the other occasions I was served chicken from the bottom of the cambro or if due to the heat insulation and travel time the fat within the chicken continued to cook, melted off and affected the food. All in all the meal is relatively healthy and EXTREMELY filling, I would recommend the shawarma on rice, with a side of nan (the nan is freshly made and perhaps the best nan I've ever had from a restaurant). The shawarma wrap is lacking, as they use a pre-cooked ready bought wrap, I have never understood why since they cook such delicious bread, although it heavily affects the quality shawarma wrap, often times the wrap would arrive covered in oil. The fries are lacking to say the least, extremely oily (almost see through due to the oil content) and very flaky on the outside and heavy oily on the inside. In conclusion, what this place does very well is authentic food, and the "fast food" aspect of this restaurant is not very good, you can get a relatively filling meal at a good price point (one meal could fill two probably but I'm greedy) and their sauce is amazing. At one point I didn't eat at home at all, and just ordered from this place for 2-3 months every day. It's good and well prepared but for some reason the quality is always affected when I ordered. Definitely try it out, you may get a different outcome, especially if you go in person. Edit: The management and hospitality given is top notch, so much as to even including extra nans when I asked at no extra charge at one point and phoning me when something was unavailable.

شباب محترمين جدا ، شاورما ممتازة، و مشاوي رائعة و الكميات كبيرة.

Nice tasty food. Always fresh and comes on time

Whole lamb with rice and 3 chickens. It was fall off the bone delicious, highly recommended for catering!

One of the better places to go for a meat platter. Middle Eastern food. Try the coffee if you dare. Very good value for money. Seating is a little basic. Food is freshly made.

Tasty and fresh... nicely cooked food... really liked it. Definitely recommend. Decent sitting area... staff is helpful and courteous... parking is little tricky. Probably next time I am going to try multi person plater. I would appreciate more salad with food... usually similar restaurants are quite generous with sides.

Really like this place.. lovely Syrian/Moroccan seating. Nice mix grill served with many extras. Sit in and see the difference. I come here for lunch - love it.

Very tasty food hot fresh nice quantity loved it.

The food is excellent, proper Syrian food, rice nice and fluffy, meat really well cooked and flavourful. The prices as well are really reasonable and the quantity of food on the platters is more than enough. The sides (hummus, Baba ghanoush, and garlic) were excellent as well. Definitely will be coming back

Amazing food the best Arabic food

best arabic restaurant i’ve been to in birmingham!!!! reminded me a little of home. definitely recommend going here

Was disappointed in the managesh and the shawrma.

Not clean. Some staff quite helpfull some not. Found a long hair wrapped around a kebab just as we were about to start out £37.99 platter. Was very of putting. Wont go again.

Well done to the owner. He certainly is running good business. Only one suggestion Please revisit your price on ungounded loose coffee. . Otherwise keep up the good work .

Surprisingly great food! Tried Kofta in tahini sauce and lamb okra, both were great! Fast delivery and reasonable price, too

Very tasty food and beautiful place. Strongly recommend. Wonderful staff. Quality dining.

No good food at all...very slow services aswel..

Wonderful, old multiroom boozer with fantastic exterior and great intetior

Very nice restaurantant, the service is amazing and food is great. I would definitely recommend them

I had just finished a body building show and it was too late to eat out. I went onto uber eats and found Syrian House. We ordered a cold mixed mezze, platter for two, 3 mixed skewers, and fresh bread. There was plenty for two people and we managed to eat most of it. The lamb just fell off the bone, in the platter for two and the chicken was very tasty. The presentation was great for home delivery too and even received two pieces of complementary cake. Will definitely order again if I'm back in Birmingham

Ordered a home delivery. Was 5 min earlier. Excellent food. The platter for 5 was a generous portion and everything was enjoyed by all our guests.

Great food and staff. No card machine when we went but otherwise great value

Don't recommend the food doesn't taste nice and the rice was served cold dsnt worth the price very disappointed

Bland ..food. would not recommend.

Absolutely true taste of Middle Eastern foods,super hygiene, brilliant customer service.
