Jivan's - Menu

We went as a group. The lady who served us was wonderfully welcoming and answered all our questions with humour and patience. There were lots of items we hadn't heard of before which needed explaining. (The menu contains no descriptions).

We used to use this restaurant often when living in Wolverhampton and now take the opportunity to eat here when back in the area. The meal did not disappoint, the naan breads are fabulous and all 3 meals were great -nothing left on the plates!

Food is nice and reasonably priced. Service is very slow and one staff member can only take drinks orders as his English is limited. Decor needs updating. Cheap and simple. Ok if you just want a little meal before night on the town. But allow plenty of time. View menu

Wide menu, limited wine list but food provides superb flavours. The layout is basic but adds to the ambiance. Very wide menu even although I am very conservative in my choice. I always have the Peshwari nan bread coated in honey and almonds which is an unbelievable combination. Worth a visit

This restaurant is not the plushest of places but the service and food are honest. I have been coming here for years on a infrequent basis and they always remember us and our petal special dish. They are always open also when all others are closed!! Always good on a Friday or Saturday night out.

Iv been comming here for many years when I lived in Wolverhampton bt I moved away 3 years ago. Bt whenever I visit I always come back . The decor is very plan and simple bt the food is beautiful and the staff are so friendly . I love the food here is very well priced and it tastes amazing. Forget the decor and just enjoy the wonderful food View menu

On a wet Tuesday early evening this rather unprepossessing but locally recommended restaurant was empty when I arrived. The staff were great and welcoming which in an empty restaurant is a hard one to pull off. Chicken sag balti was good. Heat is as you choose and the medium I requested was on the mild side. Peshwari naan was spoiled by a sweet sauce better suited to an ice cream dessert. The value however is terrific. With a couple of poppadoms and a pint of Cobra my bill was less than £14. I would go back.

Jivan's is the bomb. I spent much of my college years partying in this horrible town and I never once thought to visit this place. Then one of my good friends in my later years promised me this would be a great place for a curry. So initial thoughts is it definitely looks outdated outside and in but surprisingly it is not all that uncomfortable with the old wooden decor. I will admit in around 20 visits here I have only ever order the one dish and that is the minced lamb curry with naan, it is that good! It is a family run restaurant and they are very awesome folk who work here. I have only ever been during the week so not sure what the weekend rush is like.

I 'm genuinely baffled as to how this place has managed to get any positive reviews. We had to order a take away due to Covid 19 restrictions and collected it rather than having it delivered. After waiting 45 minutes for the food (having been told 20 minutes) we got home and the food was still relatively warm. This was as good as it got. The single samosa was crusty and looked like it had already gone though the microwave a couple of times. The chicken madras was inedible. Absolutely no flavour, bland and tepid. However it complimented well with the onion bhaji which was equally nasty. The naan bread was only partially cooked so at least there was an attempt to maintain their exceptionally l... View menu
