Unique restaurants in Birmingham

“It was my sister birthday and we decided to spend our dinner at a Japanese restaurant. The sushi was delicious, and well-price. The salmon sashimi was so fresh and came with thick slices. They also offered cooked sets for my sister since she is not comfortable with raw fish. I love my Koko Special Lychee too. The staffs were friendly and they even sang happy birthday to my sister.”

“Beautiful Eritrean restaurant with a wide menu. We had a vegetarian sample platter (bebaynetu) as well as a lamb stew (alicha). We also tried mes, Eritrean honey mead, which wasn’t on the menu but we asked for, and it was delicious.”

“Absolutely Outstanding! I recently visited Tokyo Izakaya and was blown away by the whole experience. The atmosphere is warm, stylish, and authentically Japanese. You feel like you’ve stepped straight into a Tokyo backstreet eatery. The sushi was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented; every bite melted in the mouth. I've tried Chicken Kastu Curry, Chicken Kastu, Akita Mango and Salmon Maki, and Volcano Dragon Maki. It was full of flavour and grilled to perfection. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations from both the food and sake menu. The Robata grill dishes were a standout, and the tonkotsu ramen was rich, comforting, and packed with umami. A big thank you to Jessica, Mukesh, and the entire team for the delicious food and warm hospitality. If you’re looking for genuine Japanese dining in Birmingham, this is easily one of the best. I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommended!”

“A true gem in the dining world! A place I have had the privilege of experiencing multiple times and each time improving on perfection! Talking on my last visit I must say this is a epicentre in not only the midlands but also the UK that all food and wine lovers must attend. We enjoyed the Chefs Table along with Wine pairings and it truly was an amazing experience. Every piece of food so thoughtfully made within eyesight and explained by the accompanying chef. Wonderfully enjoyed beyond words, needs to be eaten to believe. Each course served with a perfectly matched wine from the truly knowledgeable Sommelier with a knowledge base far reaching every question asked! The kitchen staff themselves being an amazing team working together in a fluid atmosphere with the real life day to day, and the amazing teamwork to create the most amazing food all under the eye of Chef Adam. A true great.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delicious Halal Sunday Roast – Great Value and Service If you’re looking for a halal restaurant in Birmingham that serves a proper Sunday roast, this is a must-visit! The restaurant offers a clean, bright, and welcoming environment, just a 30-minute walk from the Bull Ring shopping centre. The staff were very friendly and provided excellent service from the moment I arrived. My meal started with a warm, flavourful meat broth soup served promptly after ordering. For the main course, I had the chicken roast — tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. The vegetables were fresh and full of flavour, and the Yorkshire pudding was light and fluffy. Other roast options included lamb, salmon, or a combination of chicken and lamb. To finish, I enjoyed their freshly baked sprinkle cake, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. At £27 per person, the whole experience offered excellent value for money. Fully halal, great food, and friendly service — highly recommended for anyone in Birmingham looking for a quality halal Sunday roast experience.”

“Went for a birthday meal on Tuesday 25th June. We were seated upstairs. The staff were very friendly, warm and welcoming. The tapas dishes we had were all delicious especially the pork belly each dish were flavoursome had 6 dishes in total between the 2 of us. We also ordered pratas bravas, chorizo, harissa chicken, casa med salad and bread with balsamic and oil. It was very filling so had no room for desert. With the 15% it was well worth it. I was pleasantly surprised how much it was so I recommend going on a Tuesday. This is the place to go for a special occasion.”

I would definitely recommend Mezze Restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal and outstanding service. I'll certainly be coming back again. Thank you for everything!”
