Why visit

Club Paprika brings the colour and generosity of Indian cooking into a polished dining room of velvet seating, nostalgic photography and warm lighting. Begin with the contrasting textures of samosa chaat or pani puri, then explore the tandoor. Our review found particular appeal in the smoky grilled dishes, fragrant biryani and confidently prepared vegetarian options.

A welcoming setting for a leisurely meal, with bold spices, generous plates and careful presentation.

Why visit

A long-established family restaurant where Bengali flavours sit alongside carefully judged new ideas. Our reviewer enjoyed the tender Lamb Shatkora, lifted by its distinctive citrus character, and the smoky Chicken Tikka Biryani. The Signature Sea Bass shows the kitchen’s more inventive side, while warm hospitality and a comfortable dining room make this an appealing choice for an unhurried evening.

A practical stop for a quick meal built around lively sauces and satisfying textures. Our reviewer found the Hot & Tangy Chicken warmly spicy without losing its other flavours, with vegetable noodles offering a gentler contrast. The Crispy Chicken proved especially memorable: sticky sauce, sesame, onions and peppers supplied enough crunch and freshness to encourage another mouthful.

Our visit highlighted enjoyable spice, generous portions and a helpful recommendation from the manager.

Saffron Table puts Punjabi family traditions at the centre of a contemporary dining room, with velvet banquettes and a glowing bar. Our review explored crisp Amritsari fish, charred paneer and patiently cooked biryani, finding a kitchen interested in balanced spice and homestyle comfort. The mocktails provide another reason to linger, while the warmly presented karahi makes a satisfying centrepiece for the table.

Chef Rajdeep Hundal’s cooking anchors a meal rich in regional character, texture and family hospitality.

Indian Edge combines a polished room with the reassuring pleasures of grilled starters, warm spices and fragrant rice. Its Hyderabadi lamb biryani takes an unusual approach: rice and richly sauced lamb arrive separately formed, ready to be combined at the table. Our reviewer appreciated the tender meat, cooling yoghurt and playful presentation, which give a familiar dish an individual identity.

The Hyderabadi Lamb Biryani was selected for The 2026 Best of Taste Asia.

The charcoal grill is the reason to seek out Mavi. Our review found succulent lamb chops, crisp lahmacun and a mixed grill whose individual meats retained their own character. Turkish lamps, colourful seating and warm timber make the room comfortable for families or a long dinner with friends. Come for smoke, confident seasoning and the pleasure of sharing a generous spread.

The lamb chops made the strongest case for a return visit in our review.

This family restaurant carries the informality and energy of Birmingham’s street-food scene into a central dining room near New Street station. Our review enjoyed playful paneer fries, bright chaat and the theatre of pani puri, before settling into a comforting methi chicken curry. Fresh fenugreek gave that final dish its character, reminding us that the family kitchen remains at the heart of the experience.

Fusion Clan invites diners to explore Kerala through distinctive ingredients and patient cooking. Our review followed fragrant prawns with Malabar lamb shank biriyani, where heritage Kaima rice brings its own character to the plate. Bamboo rice pradhaman offers an unusual finish of coconut, jaggery and gentle spice. It is a rewarding address for anyone keen to look beyond the familiar British curry-house repertoire.
