The Light of Bengal in Birmingham
Where is The Light of Bengal?
🏠 470-472 College Rd, Birmingham B44 0HL
"The restaurant celebrated its 40 year anniversary last year. A local landmark in the Kingstanding area, we have withstood the test of time. People will remember the name “Mr John” and “Grandads shop” was the nickname of one the original owners in the late 70’s and early 80’s. After John passed away, the reins went to Mr Rahman and has stayed within the family for 3 generations. Light Of Bengal will always be the place where customers who have been eating here for many years, can reminisce their first dates, birthdays and anniversaries. Light Of Bengal has prided itself on serving only the best quality food and ingredients. Local classics includes the Balti’s and Tikka Massala’s. However, the menu has produced more tasty delicacies."

5 stars for service, clean and presentable restaurant, and food in general. And not overly expensive like some. Taken off one star as my Curry was not as tasty as it used to be from this place. Possible it's a one off, but more likely a change of chef.

First time we have ever tried this place and can i say it was beautiful. The service was very good and with the virus going around the driver had gloves and a mask on with was really good to see as im at risk. The food was hot and so fresh and just beautiful, we will certainly order again.

I've never seen anything like it the chips look a week old with furr!!! The chicken in the curry smelt like egg! I ordered at 5:30 opening time so everything I had delivered should of been freshly cooked. It was all days old what a waste of money

Ordered on Uber eats. The staff was wasteman people that rang me and said that the drivers outside when the wasteman was 15 mins away. I waited half an hour in the freezing cold for the order just for the fool driver to drive past me without even stopping outside the 500% correct and detailed address provided. I clearly explained in the instructions section to call me when he’s outside the address. Maybe the driver was a broke waste man that he didn’t even have enough minutes to gimme a ring when he’s outside. He literally didn’t even stop for two seconds and just drove past me. Absolute wasteman. Absolutely unprofessional. I have my own takeaway as well and after the experience that I had with this delivery I’m literally fuming for it being so ultra unprofessional. It is basic common sense to follow the instructions on the order and at least wait outside the designated location where the satnav brings you and try to call the customer at least once. But this experience was an absolute joke. And then the Wasteman arrives back at the shop and I get a call from Uber eats that the address that I provided wasn’t accurate ?? Absolute wasteman staff who ring you up to tell you the drivers outside when it’s 15 mins away. Waste people. Nasty experience. Wouldn’t recommend delivery from these waste people. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 Shame. Should call me and get some education on how to run a takeaway and how to manage deliveries. Waste people running this takeaway. 👎🏼 Absolute shambles.

We stopped in on a cross-country drive after using google maps to find restaurants. I’m so thankful that google found this little gem! The restaurant is very clean and well-decorated. The staff is extremely friendly, especially Mo. And the food!!! SO GOOD! I had the mango tree special and my husband ordered the butter chicken. Both were excellent! I wish we had a restaurant like this in the states!
