Imlees - Birmingham

Salad consisted of 1/2 of the smallest tomato I have ever seen 1/2 a handful of lettuce with a pot of something bluey green that was very sweet! Kebabs were not too bad but soaked in grease. Muton Balti. I thought it was Childs portion it was tiny. It was the worst I have ever had. No heat to it at all, it was more like a muton stew. It was cold and very sweet! The place needs a spring clean, filthily carpets etc. Ripped off totally.

Went here with two friends last night, hadn't been there for a very long time, so was looking forward to a revisit. Good atmosphere in the restaurant, but we were sort of left to choose our own table, no one really did a meet and greet when we arrived. Service was good and we were given menus pretty quickly. We then placed our orders (we had brought our own wine . There were two things that irritated my husband and I though there was a diner who seemed to know the front of house guy and although he had come into the restaurant well after we had sat down, he was served with his food well before we were, and he also seemed to be smoking with a vape (and there was clearly a No Smoking sign on the door to the restaurant! . The food was enjoyable, but we found our particular dishes quite salty, and my husband's fish starter (cannot remember what it was called, but it was the first on the list of fish specials was quite dry and chewy. My salmon starter was delicious! Perhaps a touch overcooked, but delicious nonetheless! Our main courses were nice, but the Bhindi bhaji was drowning in a rich tomatoey sauce, and there seemed to be more tomatoey sauce than bhindi. The restaurant were only accepting cash payments, there was no explanation as to why we couldn't use credit cards. Not terribly keen on the lurid green raita either a bit on the sweet side really.

Been hear a few times now. There is always just one guy working at the front. I know these are hard times, but come on! If there are more than 5 tables, the customers won't get the service they need. The food is good, the atmosphere and location are also good. Just invest in another member of staff or don't be in the restaurant trade.

Visited with my boyfriend for a casual curry on a Saturday night. We didn’t realise it was bring you own booze but it wasn’t an issue as there’s a co-op across the road. It’s also cash only, but again there’s a cash machine near the post office on the high street so no issue. Overall the food was good, although main meal portion sizes were on the small size for a curry house. I’m not sure whether they had the heating full blast or it was the heat from the kitchen but it was very hot in the restaurant. We were ready for some fresh air after our meal so left quickly. I’d visit again for a casual curry

Awful service. Items missed of the order. Waiter then comes over and instead of an apology starts to aggressively state why I wouldn 't have liked that menu option anyway. Worst service in years. Food not good enough either to balance the bad service experience
