What a great place. We arrived to a very warm welcome, The seating was very comfortable, tables clean and atmosphere pleasant. The restaurant is tastefully decorated. To start we had beef tacos which were delightful, pulled meat was very tasty. The oyster mushrooms were okay, portion size could have been bigger. The mezze platter was very tasty. For mains we had a classic burger which was served with chips, the meat was cooked well and served in a tasty brioche bun which was lightly toasted. I prefer more cheese in my burgers and also prefer a mild cheese, this burger comes with American cheese slice which. Burger 8/10 My siblings had steaks. Fillet mignon was requested medium and was cooked perfectly, very tasty. 9/10 Sirloin was medium/rare, cooked well also and very juicy. 9/10 Both stakes were served with a mushroom sauce which was very tasty. Mum had chicken skewers, the chicken was cooked well, spiced well and served with a nice salad and some bread. 8/10 Chips were seasoned well for us, if you like your chips plainish make sure you ask for less seasoning. During our visit we asked if they had prayer facilities which many restaurants have, I was pleasantly surprised by the standards of the facilities, they were very well kept.

BHATTI - I recently dined at a steak restaurant and was impressed by their excellent customer service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. Not only did they promptly address any questions I had about the menu, but they also provided recommendations based on my preferences. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, creating a comfortable atmosphere for a dining experience. The attentive staff added to this ambiance by ensuring that my needs were met without being intrusive. It was evident that they genuinely cared about providing a pleasant dining experience for all their guests. As for the star of the show—the steak—it was cooked to perfection. The meat was tender, flavorful, and cooked to the exact level of doneness that I had requested. Each bite was a delightful combination of savory flavors, and the accompanying sides complemented the steak wonderfully.

Food was decent, price was fine, but the presentation was a bit basic when you can get a much higher quality experience in mailbox and city centre for a similar cost. But the main issue was the Service, it was amateur and embarrassing, I asked in advance for a comfortable table for my wife who had some back pains, when we arrived a waiter took us to a seat with a bench, it was near the door so we asked can we sit in the same booths but just a few tables down, they said no that’s for 6 chairs, it was the exact same table size all they had to do was move the chairs and it would be the same, but they refused, so we said no problem how about over here where it’s nice and quiet, it wasn’t that busy either, I walked over and a rude idiot with a ponytail who claimed his name is Faheem said very condescendingly, this is closed! Go over there. Again he could have been more respectful, also a bit of a silly statement, why do you close a table that’s a few meters away? even if that was the case, he could have been polite about it. Very rude and a bit of a dic*, we were about to leave but decided to not let one prat waiter ruin the night, we then got our food, the sides however didn’t come together, including the sauce which after we ordered they changed because it wasn’t ready, just bad communication with that basic stuff and the ponytail prat who did some fire effects to some people, decided to ignore us as he walked past a few times. To be fair the other waiter was nice and made up for it & checked on us. Overall for what you pay we just expected politer service that was more accommodating and less dismissive, it’s not the first time we’ve been to a higher value dining experience and the service is normally excellent, not this place though, maybe they were a little judgmental of us, who knows. In the end before we left I looked at the tables we couldn’t sit on and both were empty lol, again Food wasn’t bad and price was alright, we had the steak with sides & I got the premium lamb chops, Overall not a terrible place, but there’s much better steak options in Birmingham.

My brother and I first came to this restaurant when it opened in star city and we were disappointed with the food, we did not enjoy anything. However we tried it again today after so long and i must say there was a vast improvement. We really enjoyed everything, we didnt get a steak this time as neither of us were in the mood for one. However, he had the Cheese meatball, very tasty, We had the barbecue ribs, which were amazing. We had the Turkish mixed grill And a classic burger which i really enjoyed. We are Planning to go again next week with more family members. I hope i enjoy it and the consistency is kept up. The only reason it was not 5 stars is because the table for 2 they gave us was not in a comfortable part of the restaurant, we had to move for people to get past and we felt like we were placed in the walkway furthermore, we felt a little rushed for the next dish to come out when they could clearly see there was no space on the table. ** UPDATE** My brother and I decided to visit Etci again on a saturday as we enjoyed it so much. And i’m disappointed it was not a good experience this time around. We ordered the barbecue ribs again and they sadly it was horrible, the ribs smelt strange and had a pungent after taste. We thought that it was off. The waiter noticed that we had not eaten it and asked if it was okay to which we advised it wasn’t nice. Thankfully, they took it off the bill. The cheese meatball lacked flavour this time and we felt as if were just eating unseasoned meat, it was very disappointing. We then had a burger each which were not good either, were very dry and chewy and not warm. I hate when restaurants don’t have consistency, The restaurant wasn’t even busy at the time we went again, So, I don’t understand why they couldn’t cook the food nicely. Anyway that’s why I’m dropping my rating back and probably won’t go there again.

We were seated quickly. But I did not like the fact my table was only available to us for 1hr 15mins. Services was quick. Please tell why the juices on their menu is watered down like squash. DO NOT ORDER I Appreciate that they do not serve alcohol.But please tell me why THEIR non.Alcoholic wine cost more than an alcoholic bottle of alcoholic wine in standard restaurants. My son found a hair in his fries and was only given a 50% discount off His food rather than a full refund.If I was a manager and a customer brought that to my attention I would have be horrified and would immediately offered a full refund. I would not have asked the customer.What do you want me to do?Then come back to the customer and say oh, the fries in the bag had the hair in it.Which means that you weren't quality Checking your items or your products. My daughter was so disgusted to hear that. Her brother found hair in his food that she immediately stopped eating her salad. Which she's now gone to bed hungry because she didn't have an enjoyable meal. Fortunately I had finished my food and pray to God, that I didn't swallow any hair. Unfortunately, my husband was halfway through his stake and his stomach turned also.He didn't finish his food and also left hungry and went to another provider to purchase something to eat, which you shouldn't have to do when you go out for a meal.It wasn't a special occasion,Per say that I wished to discuss but it was an occasion which has now been ruined. I have only included the pictures of my meal. The portion size is a lot to be desired. I wish I had gone somewhere closer to home and not wasted my time.

I recently visited Etci Star City restaurant with my work colleagues and had a disappointing experience. Before booking, I called twice to inquire about entertainment as we were going for Christmas dinner, and the representative assured me that there would be entertainment all week. However, upon arrival, the waitress informed us that entertainment was only available if we ordered a special flame steak. This crucial detail was never mentioned during my calls, which was frustrating since I specifically booked for both food and entertainment. And this wasn’t the case when I came with my siblings few years ago hence the girl being made incase of changes. I ordered the tomahawk steak with peppercorn sauce, priced at £60.50, requesting it to be cooked medium well. Unfortunately, the steak was well overcooked, making it tough to chew. My colleagues also tried it and agreed it was over cooked. While I might have returned it in a different setting, I chose not to raise the issue this time since I was with my colleagues. Additionally, I found the payment policy quite odd. For our group of seven/ eight, the bill had to be charged to one card, which was inconvenient, especially since we were prepared to cover any excess costs individually. This meant that if our total exceeded £200, it would all go on one person’s card, which was not ideal for a work outing. I had previously enjoyed this restaurant years ago when I visited with my siblings, which is why I recommended it to my colleagues. Unfortunately, this experience did not live up to my expectations, and I regret my choice. I won’t be returning in the future.
