Great selection of tapas, all well cooked, efficient and friendly service, excellent value for money. 2 guitarists were performing, which was good although as it's such a small restaurant, it was difficult to hear conversation at times. However, would definitely go again.

The food was lovely with a good selection. The service was great, but as we ate so early we were the only only especially there. Definately go there again. Mid range on the price.

As always excellent food! Service a little slow, the restaurant had expanded since I was last there, took me a while to attract attention, maybe because i was sat at the back??

The tapas was delicious and the service was friendly, helpful and quick! The only issue was wanting to order the entire menu as it all sounded good. Will be returning!

The Restaurant was great, as it always is. However they had no record of my booking via Quandoo so a bit embarrassing on arrival, however the restaurant were extremely accommodating and we thoroughly enjoyed the meal. We recommend the Slow cooked Belly Pork

The food was as lovely as ever. As usual we over ordered and subsequently waddled home. The service is good, only thing is, it is a small restaurant so it can feel cramped

I always love Byzantium but there are a few new additions to the menu now, as well as the old favourites. Coupled with friendly service and a great Portuguese red...

Excellent food as ever, with the Belly Pork and Lamb Souvlaki standing out; good ambience despite being early on a Tuesday evening and a good value Spanish Red. The dessert - a Catalan Crème Brulee - was the best I've had for some time. We will be back there before too long.

The restaurant was very quiet when we visited at lunchtime mid week. However, the food was nice with interesting dishes, we had the special lunch menu which had a good selection to choose from, we had six different tapas and flat bread we came out stuffed.

Excellent food and friendly service as ever - they need to increase the kitchen staff to cope with the new extra covers upstairs as we waited quite some time for our food. Otherwise great.

Good food, good company, unfortunately we felt as though they were rushing us.... Perhaps because we were three on a table for four...and two wheelchairs...but this shouldn't have made any difference to the service.

Food was okay, not brilliant but pleasant enough. Service not the greatest but not the worst either. Non-alchoholic drink options poor when compared to rival tapas restaurants in Birmingham. Nice place though, clean and good ambiance.

Fabulous atmosphere with the freshest and most delicious food. Service is so friendly and it's one of my favourite restaurants. There is parking on the road, so overall - perfect. You must book, it's always full and busy.

Great atmosphere. Generous wine measures. Friendly, efficient service. We had a a lovely time! The reason it's not a 6/6 is that the food wasn't quite as good as last time I visited.

Good food and great service, we will be back. If I were to think of one niggle it would be that we felt like they wanted our table turned around quickly as we were in and out in under an hour including dessert, we had hoped the experience would be a little longer.

A good evening as ever; it was great to see the restaurant so busy and bustling on a Tuesday night. Food great as ever, with the Sea Bream a particular favourite, washed down with a Portuguese Red. Good service and a great atmosphere made for a lovely evening.

Byzantium is a great little restaurant. The decor is warm and welcoming, as are the staff. The food was fantastic! We started with the flat bread - freshly baked and so light and delicious that it disappeared in seconds. We had a selection of tapas, all of which were cooked perfectly especially the pork served in balsamic vinegar. To finish we shared a tiramisu which was light and creamy. All in all a really lovely meal.

My family and I eat at Byzantium frequently and this was the first time that we had experienced an Italian themed evening and I have to say they did not disappoint. The dishes were fantastic, all of our plates went back clean to the kitchen, the staff were welcoming as usual.

Not as good as it used to be. Some of the potatoes were barely cooked. The croquettes were under-seasoned and barely had any cheese in them. The king prawns were mushy and gross.

We really enjoyed the food. It is excellent. The place is a little disorganised. Our online booking had been missed off their list. But we were grateful that they found us a table. I would recommend Byzantium.

A pleasant evening as ever; the restaurant seems much warmer these days - no need to wear your coat to eat. Good selection of food, quick service, pleasant wine and no crazy prices. The Patatas Bravas were particularly good - we hadn't tried those for a while - and we tried the selection of Olives which we'd not had before and they were great to start with. Friendly service and good prices - can't beat it on a Tuesday evening.

Another great night in Byzantium, reasonably priced. Amazing flatbreads, pork belly and Crete brûlée. Place was full but that just added to the atmosphere. We will be back soon
