James Dahl Indian

Great service, great food, looking forward already to my next visit. If you are visiting Birmingham go to this restaurant you will not be disappointed

We had a late evening meal which was very good. The service & food was good and as expected- recommend location price and atmosphere. It was recommended to me.

The location is perfect for central Birmingham and the area very accessible with parking nearby in Thorpe street. The service was first class but we were the only customers at 5.30 on New Years Eve. The set menu for the night was OK and the staff were happy to do anything else you may wish. BUT only a "good" experience NO WOW factor which having read other reviews I was hoping for, but never the less a very pleasant meal.

Food was beautiful but a little more expensive than expected. Perhaps the price of drinks were a little steep. But overall great service from all staff and they all ensured we were having a good meal and had everything we wanted/needed.

Best Indian I ever had, even in India. Will be back for sure. The biriyani was delicious, the roti crispy and tasty. The service was amazing and quick.

Good food, fast and excellent service. Nice touch on the hand wipes at the end. Highly recommended. Meal for two with drinks cost ~£50. Regular portion sizes so I recommend that you order both naan rice and naan with your meal.

Pleasant, compact Indian restaurant in the Arcadian Centre, Birmingham. Good quality food with very reasonable prices. Wine list was small, but covered all tastes. My lamb tikka biryani was delicious.

Not great food and expensive for what it was. The chicken tasted as though it was reheated and portion sizes were small for the price paid. Wouldn't return. Strange music choice as well - would have expected Indian music in an Indian restaurant.

Service and food excellent we were seated quickly and served promptly. The james special was excellent which my girlfriend had. I had shami kebab which were bed on some gorgeously cooked onions.

Lovely ambience, the service and the food were great- definitely one of the best currys in Birmingham- would certainly recommend and we'll be back soon

Staff were attentive and polite, service was very good and food arrived in a timely fashion. Food was absolutely delicious. Best Indian restaurant I've tried in the city.

Very nice decor and fresh food. Food arrived in a timely fashion and the staff were great with kids. Drinks were of a good quality.

I Visited Birmingham for the weekend and went to James Dahl on Saturday night. It was fantastic. Food was very delicious and the service great.

One of the best curries I've had. Fresh, delicate flavours - clearly a great chef with good ingredients. Enjoyed everything about the food. The service was good. Nice, clean, modern styling. It was a bit rowdy, but what do you expect for a Saturday night?

Really enjoyed the occasion. Nice atmosphere. Excellent service with prompt and courteous staff. Delicious food. Definitely recommend booking as very busy. All round very good.

We were ony visiting Birmingham, so keen to find a good curry. Great food, presented in a modern, contempory style, backed by friendly service. What more could you want?

First visit early on a Thursday evening before a trip to the theatre. Incredibly friendly and helpful staff served us delicious food. Modern and pleasant decor and beautifully clean. Very impressed all round. Will definitely go again

Great food and great service!! Perfect sized portions and very yummy curry!! Slightly more expensive than other curry house in the area but definitely worth it!

Waited a long time for the meal, was served on a chipped plate and tasted standard. Had the runs next day too. Won't be going back.

Doesn't match the reviews or the high rating in Trip Advisor. Quality of food is variable. Pleasantly modern in decor and friendly staff. It's ok, but I expected a lot better.

Food very good - a couple of niggles but dealt with well by the staff who were pleasant. Drink measures a little suspect but bottle of wine and cobra bottle ok

Food was ecceptional. Service friendly and efficient. We did not feel rushed. Restaurant very tastefully decorated. We would not hesitate to return. Very good value too.

Food was great, portion sizes perfect and the flavors were amazing. The only thing letting my experience down was the fact there was a part of approx 20 people seated near our table who were very loud but I understand this is not a fault by the restaurant itself. Would 100% recommend this place.

This was our first visit to James Dahl, the meal was great the tastiest we have had for a long time. The service was really quick and professional in a very relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and visit again.

Excellent service and good staff but food rather dull and our chicken dishes were a bit chewy. It doesn't quite compare to Birmingham's leading Indian restaurants.

Great restaurant, staff are attentive and friendly, decor is modern, the food is well flavoured and a good size and quality. Price is average for the city centre. We will be going again.

Enjoyed a fantastic curry recently at the James Dahl. Couldnt fault it at all. Really really nice food and good friendly service. Dont hesitate to come here 😊

Couldn't fault the meal, it was beautiful! Music maybe a little too loud and no courtesy check up if satisfied with the meal. Staff polite and friendly

great food, friendly helpful and courteous staff. Relaxed atmosphere, well worth a visit if that side of town. worth booking ahead if a weekend visit as it's not huge

Lovely staff, very helpful, the food was really good, and a good selection of wine. Was surprised at the Excellent price at the end considering we had 2 expensive bottles of wine

Really interesting choices, we stuck with the Bangladeshi fish dishes (this is a Bangladeshi restaurant and spicy fish and rice is their staple diet). Traditional tasting dishes with a modern presentation and chic setting. The best 'Indian' meal I've had in ages.

Great place to dine, lovely Indian quisine, extensive menu, very friendly staff, extremely passionate about customer service. Have eaten here over the last few months and always excellent, recommemd booking.

We love the food here, and the staff are charming. Attentive without being overwhelming. one of the best Saag Paneers around, and the view of the passing public adds to the entertainment!

Strange place - it's a funny shaped room. Quite small - funny layout. Food was ok-ish. We both had the special, nothing bad about it - but not exactly special. Service was good.

Lovely people, lovely food, lovely restaurant. Highly recommend! We went before a show at the hippodrome and booked a table at 5. This gave us plenty of time and the staff were so attentive to everything and even makes every day conversation with the people. High class restaurant for everyday prices. Definitely be going back!

Great food at cheap prices! Nice place to go on a Saturday evening and a welcoming and bubbly atmosphere. One of the best in Birmingham!

My boyfriend and I visited this restaurant not long ago after hearing good reviews about it on TripAdvisor. It definitely lived up to our expectation and we had a really enjoyable meal. The service was excellent and the food was tasty, we'll definitely be going back in the near future!

Enjoyed the service and the food was really good. The location and environment was nice. Found free parking near by so I suppose that was a plus

Yummy! Really lovely & clean restaurant, and lots of choice on the menu. Great for an evening out and very good service. Food is fresh and full of flavour, thank you for a brilliant meal!

Friendly helpful staff, with very efficient service. All four of us enjoyed all of our dishes which were varied and offered some different choices from the usual 'Indian' food. We were impressed and will be back for more.
