"Great restaurant with amazing decor, customer service was perfect checking that our orders were correct and if needed anything. My only downside would be the food was not 100% to my standards for the price I am paying"

"Popped in here for a bite before going to see Moulin Rouge at the Hippodrome. What a gem it is. We didn't book and was glad they managed to squeeze us in. The food is amazing as was the presentation Chef wasn't shy with the rations either, which is something every restaurant should take notice of! I had the lobster moilee which was beautiful. I haven't had Lobster like that in a long time. My partner had the mutton chops. Both dishes were rich in taste and flavour. The prices were fair My only gripe is to have more choice of red wine by the glass. I cant drink a whole bottle of red before an evening at the theatre. Well, I can but it aint pretty. We will definitely come back here again."

"You will need to understand that this is not a traditional "have some pints with the gang" kind of curry house, and it's a fusion of fine dining and classic flavours. Service was excellent, and the salted caramel espresso martini went down a treat. If I needed to host, or impress, I will be back in a hurry. If you want a cheap classic curry, its not the one."

"This restaurant in the heart of Birmingham city centre and it was an absolute pleasure to visit. From the moment me and my partner walked in we genuinely felt welcome, and the hospitality was second to none, the staff were very polite not too loud or over chatty, they were perfect and what we expect. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a great meal. The food was outstanding. The Chicken Chilli Garlic was full of flavour, perfectly cooked, and had that authentic, mouth-watering taste that’s hard to find. The chapatis were fresh, soft, and complemented the dishes beautifully, while the Vegetable Jalfrazi was rich, vibrant, and packed with perfectly balanced spices that tasted truly authentic and the food was not and piping hot :-) What really stood out was the service. Every member of the waitering staff was friendly, attentive, and professional, ensuring we were looked after throughout the entire visit without ever feeling rushed. Their genuine care and attentiveness made the experience even more special. An added bonus was the ample car parking space conveniently located just beneath the complex, which made visiting stress-free. Overall, Blanc NRI delivered exceptional food, outstanding service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Me and my partner left thoroughly impressed and will definitely be returning."

"A true gem in the heart of Birmingham! The food was absolutely fantastic, authentic, flavorful, and clearly made with care. We loved it so much, we came back two nights in a row! The service was warm and welcoming, even when we arrived later in the evening, we were greeted with a smile and never rushed. The ambiance is elegant and stylish, perfect for a relaxed and special dinner. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy high-quality Indian cuisine in a beautiful setting!"
