VEG DARBAR | VEG & VEGAN INDIAN RESTAURANT IN BIRMINGHAM — Restaurant in Birmingham

First and last time for me at this restaurant.

Food was overpriced and bland. The waiting time was ridiculous nearly 1.30hrs to get our food when there were hardly any customers in the restaurant.

The guy on the counter had 0 customer service and spilled half of my tea in the saucer while bringing it. No apologies nothing. I do get that he is probably inexperienced but should also be working with people with more experience

The food was like preheated and nothing from scratch. The kofta curry was boiled potato in a sauce. The thali was £22 with only three curries and supposedly bottomless. I have never paid for vegetarian food so much specially when the taste is not that great. I strongly believe you need to revise your prices as per what you provide.

I ordered a large mix grill and the paneer and onions were burnt in there. I seriously believe the reviews are all made up by friends and families as if you really like good tasting food this is definitely not the place. Save your money !

To top it up when we were leaving they were offering free brownie and asked us to...

I AM BLOWN AWAY!!!! I’m a regular Indian food connoisseur so I know a delicious curry as soon as I enter the room.

The food here is DIVINE. They adjusted my spicy levels to perfection, everything was so fresh, so juicy, so flavourful.

The chickpeas were melting in my mouth. The naan was fluffy, yet crispy on the outside. The curries were phenomenal.

The place is fully vegan friendly, and my carnivore friends did not regret choosing this over a regular Indian restaurant.

Now let’s talk about service because this was a BIG PROBLEM. The service was INCREDIBLE. We gave them a standing ovation. It’s quite disappointing, because I know that the bar is set high for other restaurants i’ll visit in my life….

The manager was lovely, has A+ LEVEL sense of humour, fantastic communication skills, and a very big heart, you can tell.

Thank you sweet people for hosting us. May this restaurant be blessed with incredible people who will appreciate my evening as much as I did. Please don’t ever stop pouring your heart out into...

Specifically asked on the phone if the vegan soya tikka masala still came red and creamy. They told us it did, then when we got home from collecting it just looked like any balti/jalfrezi style curry. The naan breads were more like chapati, really small for the price. The person who took my order and gave me my food was very pushy with sales too, constantly pushing other starters and sides on the phone. I asked for 2 papadoms when I collected, I presumed they'd come with the curry but they didn't, fair enough. I paid £2 for 2 papadoms with a fiver and he didn't give me any change. I asked where my £3 was and he said oh it's £3 for the chutney tray.. I didn't ask for a chutney tray and his "chutney tray" was just your bog standard dips and onion salad. Very cheeky The veg lollipops advertise they are deep fried in a batter and they aren't, they're mushed shaped vegetables in sauce.

The only saving grace was the soya tikka bhuna which was very nice.

For the price you pay it's not really worth it...
