Panchuli

This is one of my favourite curry houses in Solihull. Set in a lovely old building, the tables packed in so they can cater for large numbers but also spaced so they can also offer lots of 2’s and 4’s. The staff are really attentive and very efficient in getting your meal delivered in a timely manner. The menu is varied and there’s some really good specials including my favourite the Punjabi Murgh Massala. It’s quite essential to book but it’s easy to do via the website. Both Cobra and Kingfisher beers on tap.

Pleasant restaurant, staff were nice some not very clear when speaking but certainly friendly and welcoming. We had a dish with Chili and Garlic Paneer and also a Masala which were well executed and tasty. Peshwari Nann bread was drizzled in honey which was a sticky experience but very tasty. Onion Bhajis were nice, could have done with some mint yogurt. Drinks wise the Pepsi had no fiz but all else good. Price was very reasonable. Atmosphere was empty when we arrived but soon filled up, decor is nice but some areas need a bit of love. All in all a pleasant experience 👍🏻

Went here for my birthday meal. We sat downstairs behind the entrance in a cosy corner. The decor seemed a little dated downstairs and all the staff were friendly. We ordered popadums and starters consisting of fish pakoras, garlic prawns and sheekh kebabs. The prawns and pakoras were tasty but the sheekh kebabs quite bland and dry. Our mains were the lamb dhal spinach curry and the punjabi murgh masalla. Both were delicious and full of flavour! The restaurant has an upstairs which is suitable for groups and parking is available in Mell Square.
