The best restaurants serving Asian food in England

Excellent service with great tasting food. We went for lunch with family whilst visiting Birmingham from London, and found this place to be top notch in everything's. The burger, Desi naashta, and Karak tea were all made with great care. The price was really reasonable and the staff were excellent. Highly recommended 👌 We are really grateful for a wonderful service.

The food was awesome and service impeccable

honestly best indian ive ever had. my jaw dropped when i seen the prices it was so affordable and dont even get me started on the desserts. chocolate fudge cake 10/10!! staff were amazing too great service.

Got completely ripped off in this place £150 for 4 currys and a couple of beers should have known it was bad as we were the only people in their also as we were the only ones in there spending money they started hoovering around us and told us leave as they were standing at the door we hadn't even finished our drinks

Always ordered food from here and thought it was good until this evening they sent me the most a tikka masala which was very watery tasteless and cold not happy

Never eaten in but takeaways are good and give some good extras when spend over certain amount

First time visiting yesterday and were impressed by both the food and service we received. We had the mixed grill and ginger chicken (hot), portions were a fair size and prices reasonable too. Will definitely dine here again!

My daughter and son-in-law took me to the Golden Elephant as a Mother's day treat. They know it is my favourite restaurant in the area. I was not disappointed. Joe (the owner) was very welcoming and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food and atmosphere were excellent. I can thoroughly recommend it.

Very friendly, helpful staff and delicious food.

After a disappointing first visit to Sai a year ago, we gave it a second go as it is a popular local restaurant. Sadly, it failed to deliver again. The food is the main disappointment. Surprisingly, there are no side dishes on the menu which most top-end and local Indian restaurants do serve. We decided to go for a starter, a meat main, a vegetable main, a salade and a naan. All together. The paneer starter was a feast of sugar and sodium glutamate which would put most cheap Chinese takeaways to shame. It was poor. Very poor. The chicken in Rajasthani sauce was bone dry. The sauce was flavoursome but the chicken like plasterboard; it sucked all moisture from one’s mouth. The saag paneer looked like it had been reheated several times and had a disturbingly fatty/buttery taste; odd taste and not recommended. The cucumber salade constituted of a few slices of cucumber with some spices sprinkled on top. Rather uninspiring and not worth ordering. The naan bread had a lovely meat filling but sadly, it was barely noticeable. The papadums on the house were good but sadly, somewhat forgotten after a £70+ per person bill. The atmosphere and decor is pleasant. There is a good 'vibe' created by the open doors, good lighting and local guests. To finish, the service was hesitant and seemingly inexperienced. The owner/manager swanned around smiling at a few tables but disappeared at 8pm to leave his staff to thumble along. Second visit to Sai and last visit to Sai.

Came here a few weeks back with my husband. We were seated promptly and the starts came out hot and very tasty. We had Gyozas. The mains were a different story. My husband's food came out way before mine did so i was waiting as it was. When mine eventually did come out the curry that i had ordered had rock hard undercooked sweet potatoes in it. Considering it was a fish curry i was concerned about what else was undercooked. The issue was immediately brought to the attention of the manager who did his best to rectify the situation for us. Instead i ordered another fail safe dish. This came out ok but only after another 20 minutes and i felt rushed eating this infront of my bored husband who had finished eating about 40 mins prior. The bill was partially comped for us as a result of the issues. But still came to about £40. Quite overpriced i must add.

Fantastic meal, very flavoursome. Dishes delicious, onion bhaji very light and fresh. First time we've ordered from here. Quick delivery, very friendly, impressed. Will definitely visit again.

Very nice food but shame item was missing from order

It's excellent now! stopped coming years ago as the quality / standard of food sadly went downhill. We heard things had recently changed so came back and WOW, the food is great, it's really great value, the place looks good, more like a city restaurant decor, and the staff (Jamal and everyone) are so friendly. If you stopped coming here as well, it's worth going back.

delicious food! Will definitely order again
