If you're looking for flavourful Indian cuisine in Birmingham, the Dilshad Indian & Takeaway Menu at 618-620 Bristol Rd is a noteworthy contender. As a reviewer with a deep appreciation for authentic South Asian cooking, I found this spot delivers an impressive range of traditional dishes that cater to both dine-in and takeaway patrons.

One of the standout elements of Dilshad’s menu is its attention to regional detail. From rich, slow-cooked baltis to sizzling tandoori grills, the flavours are layered and aromatic. The Chicken Jalfrezi I sampled was perfectly spiced-fiery but balanced, and not overly oily, which can often be a downside at similar establishments. Their Garlic Naan, fluffy with just the right char, paired beautifully with the robust mains. A notable vegetarian selection adds further depth, with the Saag Paneer and Vegetable Biryani standing out for freshness and well-rounded seasoning.

What differentiates Dilshad from its competitors is its commitment to consistency and quality. Portion sizes are generous, pricing remains competitive for the area, and service is attentive without being intrusive. For takeaway customers, dishes are packaged securely with minimal leakage-an often overlooked but important detail.

While the dining space is modest, it’s clean and inviting, with a casual atmosphere suited to both quick meals and longer sit-downs. It’s clear the restaurant is geared towards both the local student population and long-time Birmingham residents looking for an honest Indian meal without gimmicks.

Overall, the Dilshad Indian & Takeaway Menu offers a compelling combination of flavour, variety, and value. It’s a reliable choice for anyone seeking a genuine Indian dining experience in Birmingham, particularly around Selly Oak and the University of Birmingham area. Whether you’re craving a classic curry or a mixed grill feast, this venue won’t disappoint.
