Itihaas Restaurant in Birmingham

Yummylicious!!! The BEST Indian food you can get in the UK. All the dishes tasted so authentic, fresh and flavorsome. Loved the ambience. Definitely im gonna come back soon. 👌🏻

Itihaad was a great experience - the food was amazing and the service was just as good. There’s also a really tasty range of soft drinks.

Always great service and authentic Indian flavour. Today my family was served by Anmol from Delhi. Very humble and knowledgeable gentleman.

Absolute rubbish. White crowd who don't know anything about good service and food. Waste of time immigrant and untrained staff running like monkeys with no purpose. Service 0/10. Atmosphere 4/10. Food 5/10.Seriously do not go here. Cobwebs in the entrance. Honestly thought this place was going to be good, but Raj Rana, your restaurant is Pathetic on multiple levels. Staff tossed cutlery. Drinks arrived 30mins late. Starters arrived fair time but were bordering warm/cold. Mains didn't even come 2hrs after booking time. Booking time then actual seating time is 1hr, and even that's a mess of a show. You take a toilet door to go downstairs to the Spain 50 degree sauna room or sit upstairs in Antarctica.I got photos and proof. Seriously for all indians who know food and service, stay home and save your money. These restaurants are just rinsing money out of dumb clientele. You deserve it too.Can't blame anybody but yourself. It's a business. Run it like a business, not a circus. Don't know why these idiots in the review section are adding 5 star comments. Clearly restaurant virgins with a bit of spare cash saving saved at the end of the year. Go buy yourself a Willy Wonka chocolate bar insteadThis falls into the slums of Milans and Rajdhoot. Equally dog sh##.I asked for ice water. No ice. Asked for a straw. No sign of that person ever again. Cutlery dirty, glasses dirty... cutlery not even put on a tissue and tossed on the dirty table. What the fu## from Ithiaas?Enjoy the first cobweb picture. Got a gallery full of the rubbish Ithiaas is.Since entering, 5 other families complained before even getting to their table. The dumb owner is working the untrained staff like organutangs paid a peanut costing £4 ph most likely. Most likely evading taxes too the way this mud shack runs. Next to the joke Opheem is too.In conclusion, it is embarrassing to say you ate at Ithiaas now.

My husband had booked a table for my birthday. The food was satisfactory. There was a very loud table of men next to us, which made it difficult to hear anything and ruined the ambience. The orange juice was out of a cheap brand carton but priced highly. There was not much attentiveness and my husband had asked the staff to bring out a cake for me. However, this took a long time and we had to order hot drinks to compensate for the long interval. Overall, I was not vastly impressed and will not return.

This place is no short of a 5 star!The food here is absolutely amazing and purely Indian. We had the Nairobi samosas and the beg Manchurian for the starters which was pretty descent but probably not good for the price bracket they are in. For the main course we had their jungle chicken curry which reminded of the streets of Delhi.The place itself is nice with a cozy ambience and good private seating sections. Their alcohol selection is good with a mix of spirits and cocktails but unfortunately they don’t have any draft which was a no deal for me but overall its a good selection of bottles.The staff at the restaurant are extremely courteous and helpful. The best part is that they have the knowledge of the food they are serving (which is a like a lost art in the restaurants these days). Our server Anmol was quite aware of the dishes and served us brilliantly.Overall i would say a 4.5 but gave a 5 for the service.My ratings:-Food- 5/5Ambience-4/5Service-5/5Price-4/5

We decided to head to Itihaas for a small birthday celebration. My diet is quite restricted (gluten free and plant based) but I was able to choose with confidence from the menu, and enjoy a mocktail as well.The staff are attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable without being pushy and excellent overall.We had a great meal, at a fair price, and thoroughly enjoyed our evening.

Meat quality was good but lacked the punch of flavour. The main course served was warm rather than hot, I guess the chef wanted to go home early. The manager kept giving us excuses rather than an apology.

Been a long established Indian fine dinning restaurant for over a decade...and nothing has really changed. Wouldn't say in the top 5 for fine dinning Indian, however, still very good food. Can't understand why decor after 10 odd years still is the same and a little dated. Perhaps just me.Anyway, food is very good. Always like the thaali options as great way to share and pick and mix.Had a street food thaali (full of starter type options) which is great to share. Also had a Shahi thaali (meat version) perfect.Polished off with a shrikand Mango cheesecake.Nice.Service not bad, considering were part of a large group.

While the decor and appearances are promising, the actual food is very low quality and does not reflect or meet expectations. The chefs must really hate their job, or something has happened to their taste buds. No spices, no flavours, just a few chunks of boiled meat thrown into a generic sauce. Also we asked for our curries to be cooked spicy and we were given the same bland curries as everyone else (except with raw chopped chillies thrown in at the last minute). Even the garlic naan was dry and rubbery (how can you get garlic naan wrong?!). Such a disappointment considering the high prices! Avoid this place, save your palette and your wallet. I'm sure any other restaurant around the same area would be better than this.
