The Flying Elephant in Solihull

Reservé una mesa temprano por la noche a mediados de semana y conseguí un stand encantador. Fuimos recibidos por Abs (frente de la casa) que nos atendió muy bien. Tuvimos poppadoms con una selección de chutneys para empezar seguidos de Pollo Balti ligeramente más caliente, Rey Gamba Balti y Rey Gamba Xacuti acompañados con 2 naans de ajo. Todos estaban deliciosos. Como bono, los comensales pueden tomar su propio alcohol. Está ocupado viernes y sábado, así que se recomienda reservar. También hacen servicio para llevar. Volveremos muy pronto!

Food was the worst I had... if these reviews are real then these people need to get out of knowledge and try something else. Please don’t waste your time and bar earned money in such a place like this. Food was so poor and service was a big fat zero too.

We were staying in the Travelodge over the road and as it was chucking it down we decided a quick scamper to Kismet would be sensible. I’m glad we did as we really enjoyed the food and service. We chose king prawn with garlic and chilli, tandoori lamb chop, then meat thali and duck bhuna. All of the food was well presented, tasted great and was very filling. We ended up leaving some as the portion size was a bit much for us.

Poor service and attitude from the staff. Food was bland and cold, we wanted over an hour and half to be served cold slop. And to top it all they tried to over charge.

Mixed feelings this evening - three of us had a very enjoyable meal - we all had starters (can recommend Tandori Mix) and mains (Lamb Balti with mushroom Bhaji and Peshwari Naan was excellent). Drinks all good. My only disappointment was to be charged £1.50 for my doggy bag - that was a first for me (I usually over-order so that I have lunch for the next day) - won't do that again ,on principle. Shame, but there we go. Staff were pleasant and helpful
