About Blue Lagoon
More about the restaurant: Blue Lagoon
Birmingham’s Blue Lagoon restaurant styles itself as an Indian restaurant, but it would be more accurate to catagorise it as a Bangladeshi place which isn’t shy about taking influences from across the region. The team take most of their inspiration for their food from Sylhet, Bangladesh’s second city, and they have transplanted the city’s flavours to Brum’s Waterside. There’s something for everyone at this local Bangladeshi place, but it’s a special treat for those with a taste for inventive curry.

The intention is to create a fusion of flavours to hold the interest of Birmingham’s famously discerning curry fans. There’s hints of subcontinental influence abounds, but the food doesn’t suffer from an overload of ideas executed poorly. Instead there’s bold takes on old favourites and chef specials with enough inventiveness to keep things ticking over.
