I booked this restaurant for dinner for my friends and myself before going on to the theatre.Excellent food, staff very attentive and welcoming, lovely restaurant, will certainly be returning. We all chose different dishes with rice and all were perfect.
A really friendly eelcome, very efficient service, lovely decor and ambience to the restaurant & most importantly great food presented really well. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Can't really fault them. Service and food were great and the ambience was good. Prices reflect the fact that it is a higher end establishment but that's to be expected.
Very tasty food with plenty of choice and good portion sizes, very good value for money. The restaurant was clean and had a good atmosphere, and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. A great night out
lovely atmosphere friendly staff food was amazing second time we have been here having met the owner and his family abroad on holiday will definitley recommend family and friends.
As always the quality of the service, food and ambience were excellent. James Dahl Indian is an ideal restaurant for a pre-theatre meal in a central Birmingham location.
Beautiful restaurant food was amazing! Staff were very welcoming polite and helpful, didn't wait long between meals which was great overall a great dining experience will definitely be going again :)
Great restaurant. Was pretty quiet but great attentive staff - quick and efficient service. Food was delicious - had a starter and some sides but big portions and very full afterwards. Would recommend.
Restaurant was nicely decorated, food was tasty and portion sizes were good. We either ate at a very quiet time or the restaurant doesn't get very busy - this did limit the atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and professional and I thought the meal overall was good value for money. I would visit again.
A lovely little restaurant, great quality food with high quality ingredients and fantastic flavours. The staff were very friendly and attentive. We will be visiting again.
Prefect curry,the staff were friendly and helpful! Will definitely return when I'm in the area.. I really recommend the pandina,it's a stunning dish! See you soon!!
Love the James Dahl, the food is really delicious and fresh and feels "healthier" than a normal curry. The staff are friendly and helpful. Always a delight!
A little dark inside where we were sat and had to use torch on phone to read menu. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was excellent.
We visited for the first time for a pre theatre meal. We had a fantastic meal and I would highly recommend you visit. If you like Indian food you will love James Dahl.
Lovely intimate setting, beautiful decor, service excellent, food was great. Enjoyed the evening, china town environment was good. A larger variety of desserts would be good. Can't fault, highly recommended.
Saturday evening meal, and the all aspects of the meal were very good. The starters were tasty and the main dishes balanced with spice. The food itself was very good. The service was efficient but a little bit rushed given the restaurant was not full.
Meal was excellent. Great service, friendly and efficient staff. The food was fresh and delicious- we ordered a variety of dishes and nothing disappointed. I'd hightly recommend James Dahl and I'd certainly go again.
Our early Thursday evening reservation for 3, was my first visit to this restaurant. I don't have anything negative to report, Lovely atmosphere, very pleasant and attentive staff, delicious food. I would definitely go back.
Great service and great food. A few different dishes on the menu which made a nice change! Food delicious and the nan bread hot and fresh!
We visited before the theatre, great reviews on trip advisor and we were not disappointed. Lovely food, friendly staff, good service. Will definitely go back.
Excellent food, facilities and service. All 6 of us loved the place and would definitely return, when we go back to Birmingham. I cannot understand the odd bad review at all. I tend to lean to the owners response, and can only believe its malicious competitors, trying to destroy a lovely restaurant.
After a warm welcome we were seated at a smart window table, the restaurant is modern, contemporary and very clean. Our drinks order was taken and arrived promptly. We ordered food and asked the waiter if one of the dishes could be personalised to my wife's taste, the food was fantastic. I would recommend this restaurant.
Lovely up-market resturant.The staff are very friendly and give you time to actually decide what you want! Most importantly...the food is gorgeous! We come here quite frequently and would definitely recommend to others.
The food is good; an excellent saag paneer, and the staff are extremely friendly without being intrusive. It's a busy restaurant so it's advisable to book.
Food was amazing. Good standard of cleaness. Friendly staff. Enjoyed my time there with friends. Lovely mood lighting. Will make another visit to the restaurant when I make another trip to Birmingham. Wish I found out about this place a long time ago
The staff were very friendly and the food was great. However, after ordering, the food did take almost an hour to come. Hence the 5/6.
Lovely small restaurant. Very welcoming, with superb food. IT is just round the corner from the Hippodrome, so was ideal for a meal before the show.
Very nice restaurant with very attentive and helpful staff. Would definitely recommend and go back again. Very handy if you are going to the theater
Service was great, staff very polite. Food was served in a timely manner and was all delicious. James Dahl Special was a particular highlight as a main, worth a try!
Amazing Food! great service! Been before and would definitely go again! Would recommend anyone who fancies a great, great food! Also in a fantastic location, right in the centre of Birmingham surrounded by pubs and other eateries.
We arrived to a warm welcome and were seated at our reserved table. Our food was fab, the chicken dishes were flavoured perfectly and the veg was cooked to perfection. We would highly recommended this restaurant.
Good food! one of the best indian restaurants for authentic tasting food Nice location in arcadian Average decor and service Soft drinks were flat and warm
Lovely decorated restaurant, with a nice atmosphere and spotlessly clean. We were given a very warm welcome and very attentive and helpful service. They took time to help us choose, explaining what the various dishes were. The food was delicious, hot and nicely presented. We would definitely visit again
We had a great meal, straight after a matinee performance at the Hippodrome. The service was excellent, fantastic curry and good value. Perfect end to our day in Birmingham 👍
This was the first time I tried this restaurant and the kitchen service was very good. The food was lovely and the price was very reasonable.
Excellent all round. The food and service is of a high standard and I look forward to returning. The food is very tasty with an exstensive menu and the portion size is very good.
Food amazing. Service amazing. Would highly recommend. We had a sharer starter which was the perfect size follow by a Dhansak, keema naan and keema rice. All the food was bang on
Fantastic service and amazing food. It was our first time there and will 100% be going back. They cater for all and made sure we had a great food...the starters and mains were amazing even made us a Paneer Garlic Chilli Masala which was amazing.
Lots of traditional Indian dishes but they taste fresh and delicious...service was excellent all the way through, my highlights included opening the door for me when I went to the loo and bringing extra ice for our Lassi to keep it cool....look out for the quirky way of serving the hot towels xx
The food is superb and the service is first rate. I would certainly recommend eating here for a pre or post theatre meal or a trip to the Glee club.
