10/10 experience i would say. Personally being a food enthusiast from India, the chef's each take on different states of India was on point and inspiring. He even had a Kerala inspired dish on the menu which was a pleasant surprise as that's where I am from.

One of the best Michelin star restaurant experience.

The experience was fantastic, the service was elegant and precise and the food was delicate and delicious.

One slight issue I would like to raise, the seating in the lounge isn't comfortable and neither was the dining area chair too... apart from that everything else was top class.

I'll definitely be coming again with more family member for them to try it themselves.

I was not sure what to expect from Indian fine dining. I was very surprised and throughly impressed with the food. The flavors were amazing and there was a good spicy kick which I didn’t expect. We had the 10 course tasting. Can’t wait to go back.

The service was excellent.

Highly recommend to anyone.

Arrived at this beautiful restaurant as a group of 5 for their 10 course vegetarian private dining experience.

They walked us to the lounge which was absolutely stunning! Felt very cosy, were offered drinks whilst they served some starters. Staff were very polite and attentive, explained each dish very well too. Unfortunately did not manage to get photos of the starters but they were all very tasty!

We then went upstairs to their private dining area, which was very well presented and away from busier areas. Each dish was very well presented and well explained, waiters made a lot of personal touches like addressing us by our names, topping up water, recommending wines etc.

Was such a wonderful experience that we all throughly enjoyed. As the evening went on we were getting very full, but each course did not disappoint and all were consistent! Would definitely come again and recommend to anyone wanting to learn more about Indian cuisine.

Only issue we did have was finding parking, lots of double yellows around!

This was the famous Opheem in Birmingham. We managed to get a table for 4 with only a week to go. It was from 17:30 on a Thursday. Exactly, who goes out to eat at 17:30 on a Thursday. We were at the restaurant for over 5 hours. That wasn't because the service was bad, quite the contrary.  It was the experience of a ten course tasting menu and the service and conversation which meant we were there that long. You will see from the pics that the presentation was amazing, you can't taste it but it was really good. The chefs preparing your courses actually come.out to serve in most cases which was a nice touch. The great man Akhtar himself came out to serve one of the courses, or at least pour the sauce. I have tried to put the pics in order with the menu first so you can match the pic to the dish.

I have to say it is not cheap and we did have to convince ourselves for some time that we should go.  Really glad we did and it was definitely worth it even if it was a big dent in our going out budget.

Would I go again? For that price I think I would be keen to try a different experience but still very glad we went.
