"Jojolapa is the first Nepalese restaurant in Birmingham, located on Newhall Street. In a city well known for the cuisine of Nepal’s much more famous South Asian neighbour, the restaurant has held its own with discerning diners, so it was high time we tried it ourselves. Atmosphere There’s a buzzy vibrance to the place which contrasts fabulously with the moody low lit interior, dark wood furnishings and carvings. We saw relaxed diners enjoying drinks at the bar as they waited to be seated. Jojolapa has the ‘perfect night out’ atmosphere nailed. food Steamed momo chicken dumplings with mint and coriander sauce and Nepalese tomato sauce, chatamari (Nepalese pancake stuffed with vegetables and fried egg) and momo soup (chicken dimsum broth with noodles) were moreish starters. I was disappointed that the East Asian flavour to our meal pretty much ended there. There were very few main choices that I hadn’t eaten in an Indian restaurant. I opted for one of the noted Nepalese dishes special fish curry with nepalese spices. My guest plumped for the old faithful lamb rogan josh. Both were nice enough but I yearned for more of the starters. The kulfi ice cream was a delicious end to the meal. drinks There is a very respectable wine menu but Jojolapa is the natural home for cocktail lovers. The yummy jojolapa cocktail – black vodka, midori and cranberry juice marked the start of the evening in style and Jojolapa’s twist on the mango lassi served with vodka and orange liquer was gorgeous. overall There are plenty of Indian restaurants in Birmingham that boast similar dishes. But many of these restaurants can only dream of achieving Jojolapa’s cosmopolitan and sexy vibe seductively teamed with a friendly and super efficient service."

"We dined at Southern Spice on Saturday, April. Four of us had a pleasant evening meal there. The appetizers were fantastic, particularly the soft shell crab and lamb samosas. The main dishes were also delicious, with the Chicken Korma standing out. The desserts were lovely as well, especially the ice cream with cooked corn and the brûlée. The service was excellent, with discreet and attentive staff who were very friendly and accommodating. We plan to return soon and would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a quiet evening in a nice, no-frills restaurant with great food. The wine selection is reasonably priced and the Malbec was excellent."

"Slow service, some waiters have rather serious demeanour, perhaps under stress! Manager tried to compensate but this will never work, need to keep unhappy staff hidden from customers! Food wise some good- Salmon starter, some poor- poorly marinated large pieces of chicken. Mains average."

"I'd like to amend my review. The gentleman from the restaurant called me back in a few minutes and it seemed like he did not hang up on me on purpose, rather, it was a connection issue. Their food is great and I like the service and atmosphere. However, I tried calling them to book a reservation the guy keeps hanging up on me for no reason. He would answer the call, not wait for me to finish asking my question and just hang up on me. I have family in town and would've loved to take my own family there Friday night. But I guess not"

"I had a wonderful birthday dinner here last Friday and couldn't find anything wrong with the food or the service. The staff were delightful, well-informed about the menu, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. It's quite rare to come across restaurants like this these days. I will definitely be returning!"

"I visited The Indian Smokehouse on Sunday 24th June with my family. Service was outstanding, we were told how the ordering and seating system worked and served our drinks by a very polite member of staff. Our food order was taken diligently and carefully and upon food being served, the quality of the food was outstanding. The environment within the venue is comfortable and accommodating and we had good value for money, we felt very much at home. Thank you, hope to visit again soon."

"It is easy when reviewing to press the 2 or 4 button and try to hold back. When you visit the Orchid, your finger will veer towards the 5 button and stay there. Having been to Tamarind and Benares, the food would not be out of place at these establishments. The staff are friendly and accommodating and the owner is both charming and as proud as any father should be. Try the Jaipur lamb, it's to die for. (Also reviewed on Trip Advisor)"

"We had a wonderful dinner at the restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly, and they even accommodated special requests that weren't on the menu. The food was fresh and delicious, surpassing the standard of most Indian restaurants. I wholeheartedly recommend it!"

"Under new management. Beware of the star rating of this one it used to be good, now it isn 't. I reviewed this restaurant back in 2017. The food was nice, well made, and even though it appeared to have been 'adapted ' to the Italian palette, it was very enjoyable. We haven 't been for a couple of years, but a recent trip to Milan found me looking at the menu of Rangoli. It offers many more types of dish than before, and so we booked and gave it a go. What a disappointment! From beginning to end. There are no longer poppadums, instead, there is a dry, flatbread (like .5mm flat) which I have never experienced before in any Indian restaurant. This is served with a rather acidic mint sauce, and a sour sauce. Moving on to a starter, I ordered the Chicken Pakora one of my favourites from my past experience. Awful. It was dry the chicken, in particular, was dried out, hard to chew, and did not appear to be very good meat. Brown and mashed. I couldn 't finish it. It didn 't taste fresh. Onto the main course, A chicken madras. The sauce was very nice. The problem was there was next to no chicken in it. 4 small pieces around half a breast. What a disappointment Rangoli. And the price you charge for a portion of rice is ridiculous. This isn 't cheap, but neither is it good. A bad experience which I don 't care to repeat."

"a group of 6 of us went there on a Monday evening as there were good reviews. it is located in a next street, and the first impression was the datierte decoration. they have an extensive menu and many items are listed as vegan or can be made vegan. we had the opportunity to get in the ground floor near the beginning (which was above warm) or down (which was very cold, as there was no heating) so we chose the ground floor. the restaurant was pretty busy. they serve alcohol. on the menu is located cobra beer 1/2 pint, 1 pint and from the bottle. buy the bottle as there is much cheaper than the design beer. note that on the menu there are poppadums on two places mentioned. £1 for 1. or pay them £3,50 for two if they want something chutney with. they bring them the more expensive if they do not specify. I had punjabi samosas for the starter. they were in order, but I had better elsewhere. one of our groupings the bhel armi, but it did not happen until all others had finished their ancestors, but he said it tasted very beautiful. for the net I had the tofu massaman curry. in the round it consisted of large plates of tofu with some kartoffels in a green sauce. unfortunately my curry lukewarm was when it arrived, but it tasted ok. It was very mild and suitable for my palate. I had to order a part rice separately, and the part rice was bigger than I actually needed. my partner ordered the vegan thiali £17. we told the waiter that we were vegan when we ordered and the vegan thiali is mentioned specifically on the menu. when it arrived, it seemed to have milkrita as well as a non-vegan dessert. we asked the waiter if it was vegan and he said yes, then he reconstructed and took the dessert away to be replaced. he did not seem to be aware that the rita was not vegan. I checked with another employee who said that the rita they brought was not vegan and they would also replace it. another employee said they would replace the rita with a vegan version they did. it seemed just a waiter for most of the time to be, and he seemed to watch his time with headphones in and on his phone! overall eating was ok, the service was not so great. there are many Indian vegetarian restaurants in london and some with beautiful decoration and better eating."

"My best friend and I were meeting for the first time since the pandemic and this restaurant gave us a truly wonderful evening. The food was incredibly tasty, and the ambience was relaxed, happy and friendly and the staff were superb. They explained dishes, made fabulous suggestions, were caring and helpful to one middleaged and one elderly lady throughout. We enjoyed ourselves enormously I just wish I didn’t live 200 miles away and could visit often. My friend however does live locally and will be back! Thank you to every single member of staff for great food and a great evening out."

"I went for the Sunday carvery, and I regret that decision. The food was cold and so limp that it was inedible. The Yorkshire puddings were cold, the roast potatoes, despite being advertised as crispy, were actually soggy, and the herbs on top were the only crispy part. The roast carrots and parsnips were also cold and drenched in oil, and the meat was dry. After I complained, the staff offered to bring out fresh food, but by then, we were so put off that we left without eating. Meal type: Lunch. Food: 1. Service: 1. Atmosphere: 1."

"I booked a table at Paradise Lounge after reading some positive reviews on OpenTable, and I wasn't disappointed! The food tasted fresh, and the garlic and coriander naan had a delightful homemade flavor. I definitely plan to return and try more dishes, as my first impression was very positive. The service was great, and the evening ended on a high note with a warm smile."
