Brilliant restaurant, extensively decorated with generous flavoured portion sized food. Excellent service provided with Khurram who treated our family like his own being polite and respectful. A credit to the business.

We came here for lunch with family, we were promptly seated even though the ordering process isn’t for the tech savvy clientele it was a clear and easy process once the waiter explained it to us, we ordered a mixed platter between us which was well presented and had a selection of mains ranging from handis to karahis and birianis, there was plentiful food and the portions were sensible and it was an extra surprise when we were given complimentary desserts by our server brother Khurram who bless him looked after us and made it a genuine and memorable experience so utmost thanks to the brother we had an incredible lunch and enjoyed every minute, thank you very much.

Food and drinks were amazing... The lamb was very soft and succulent. Salmon curry was equally tasty... No complaints whats so ever! Car parking at the front but the main car park is at the back. Highly recommend this place for special occasions too...

I recently had the pleasure of trying the French toast at this charming spot, and it was absolutely amazing! The thick-sliced bread with a soft centre paired perfectly with the sautéed banana on top. I would have appreciated a more generous serving of banana, surpassing any other fruits, but still worth it. The full breakfast, as a whole, was delightful; the mushrooms, in particular, were surprisingly enjoyable with their own special sauce that truly hit the spot. While the turkey rashers could have been improved, the overall experience was great. This place boasts a nice atmosphere with appealing decor, and I found the layout to be quite pleasing. Check out the picture for more! Facilities: - Toilets: Yes, and very clean - Card payments: Yes, and they offer the convenient "split" option, saving time and calculations 😅 - Would I return: Yes - Wheelchair friendly: Yes

@alam.restaurant - Taste the flavours 🤩 The decor is pretty and welcoming It’s got this instagramable garden look with beautiful pink tress and lots of green, black and gold colours 🌸🌷 What we had to eat and drink ✨Tandoori Chops ✨Mixed Platter ✨TMC - Nojito ✨TMC - Strawberry Mockiri ✨TMC - Old Passion ✨Half Chicken ✨Banana & Caramel waffle ✨Prawn Biryani ✨Mövenpick Ice Cream ✨Vanilla Dream The food was good and very strongly seasoned so if you like spices get the platter that is easily shareable between 2 or 3 people. The lamb chops were not to our likings but the prawn biryani was really nice and flavourful. The drinks were lovely and sweet 🍹 And the waffle were delicious!!🍌🧇🤩 The staff were attentive and tried to accommodate our needs to the best way they could, friendly and respectful 😇🙏 📍Alam, 356 Coventry Rd, Small Heath, Birmingham B10 0XE, United Kingdom Thank you for having us at your restaurant and hopefully see you all again soon 🙏❤️👑 Please check out my instagram @queenzee93 for a video review of this place

3rd time visiting the restaurant and always plan to go back. They have variety of options but I think they specialise in their Indian curries as they are full of flavour and the spices burst in your mouth. Also love their mango lasi soooo delicious. The atmosphere is great. I also recommend to go out back to take some photos as they have a beautiful garden.

This meal that I shared with my partner was very nice, I liked the service as they never came up to bother us while we were stuffing our faces. The French toast was to die for and the full breakfast went amazingly. I liked that the place was clean to the point of video worthy. Many thanks, they even let us know about the 30% deals!

Update 2024: went to this place again as food was brilliant and service is always great. We sat in the courtyard for a cold January but each table had heaters underneath so it was a bonus keeping the legs warm. 2023: went with a friend and she loved each and every dish. Food and service were amazing. Biryani and tarka daal was delicious as well as chicken achari. Iftar 2023. The restaurant itself is so beautiful, it has a lovely courtyard and extra dinning space for larger groups upstairs. Came for the iftaar menu and it was getting packed by 7 pm. They provided a plate of fruit, dates and zam zam on each table. Food is all ordered via a QR code which you pay cash /card at the end when leaving. We ordered a mix platter and 2 curries, roti, rice and mocktails. First thing the mix grill didn't come as they forgot in the rush considering you order all in one go expecting to come together but they took it off the bill when we enquired about it. But I must say the rest of food was delicious. Chicken achari was super tasty and so was lamb kharai. Mocktails are ok, yet pricey considering they a standard mixed drinks. Staff were super friendly from entering, and service staff considering the rush. Need to go back again as their desserts looked good. Overall pleasant evening with good food.
