Srihata in Solihull

What happened? Came for my birthday with the family, food itself was lovely but the experience as a whole has made me not want to come back for a sit down meal. The waiter was miserable and didn't look like he wanted to be there, everything looked like it was too much work for him. We didn't even sit down before he started to ask what drinks and how many poppadoms did we want - can I not sit down and get my coat off first? Starters took forever to come out, they put 3 plates of salad on the table without saying anything (we assumed it was for the 3 starters) but they sat there for ages before they finally brought out the starters to be put on the plates. The waiter that was serving us kept leaning over trying to grab plates and asking if we had finished even though people were still clearly eating. Found that a bit rude, it's not like they were busy and needed plates back. Starters were beautiful, so was the mains. Couldn't fault the food. Put a bit of a damper on my birthday as I picked that place and was a little embarrassed how the staff were towards us. Felt like we weren't good enough to be there.

Visited here on Tuesday evening with colleagues, we have been a couple of times previously while working at the NEC, the food was incredible, fresh popadoms, great pickles, I had prawn puri starter, generous amount of prawns and a tandoori mix grill, with fresh, succulent high quality meats!! Naan bread was delicious too!! I’m really giving this place 10/10, the staff are so nice and friendly and have a sense of humour!! Which is great!! Can’t wait to go back next year!!

Really lovely staff who are friendly and helpful. Food is really great we always come here and have been for over a year

absolutely the best Indian I had in a while
