The service is excellent but the food was okay on my second visit as opposed to my first visit. I decided to introduce my friends to the restaurant, hence my second visit.

Booked it online last minute through Quandoo, all worked fine. Nice curry, decent cocktails and didn't have to step outside to get back to our room.

Absolutely Amazing! Staff are very friendly and professional.... whenever I travel to Birmingham I always choose to eat here as it's always been my favourite place. Food and drinks taste lovely every time aswel as looking delicious. They even went out of there way to surprise me and made a personal effort and prepared me a special dessert with candles as it was my birthday! I really can't fault this place at all. It's perfect.

I had friends' visiting me from London, and I wanted to impress them with a great dining experience; I immediately thought of Pushkar, having been there many times in the past. We were not disappointed. The food, service and atmosphere were excellent. My friends were delighted with my choice of restaurant.

Food was lovely and well presented. Would describe the food as modern twists on Indian classics. As I had booked for my 21st, they were even kind enough to serve me a complimentary brownie with a Happy Birthday message! Only criticism is that the food is expensive for the portion sizes, (but I guess you are paying for the whole 'fine dining' experience rather than just the food). Overall would recommend as an impressive restaurant serving delicious food.

I booked this for Mother's Day. The service was ok at the restaurant although a bit slow taking 30mins for the starters alone. However yesterday evening my mother felt unwell and we have both been sick today so I'm guessing it's from the food. We both had sheesh kebab starters and masala for main. Ok service but unfortunately the food poisioning has let it down.

Brilliant food & very attentive staff to advise & recommend. Maybe a bit expensive but this is no ordinary Indian Restaurant. 2nd time in a year that we have stayed at Jurys Inn next door and visited Pushka on both occasions; would return again if in Birmingham.

Slightly disappointed with quality of the food and service. Had the Northern Indian fish curry and asked for it to be spicy however it turned out to be lacking in depth of flavour and was not spicy at all. The service was mediocre to say the least , we were kept waiting for around 25 minutes before we ordered and had to keep getting someone's attention to order drinks. If the idea is to offer a fine dining experience this restaurant falls short of the required standard required.

The food was excellent, best Indian restaurant we have ever been at. The dishes were attractively laid out. Portions not overly large but more than adequate. Service was a bit slow but considering how crowded the place was, understandable.

I was totally underwhelmed by the experience, I ordered a chicken tikka masala but it was more sauce than chicken, the pilau rice was bland and a muddy brown colour, not the light fluffy rice I was expecting, there was a very limited choice of main courses, my wife had a chicken korma with steamed rice which she really enjoyed (and she is a fussy eater). The restaurant itself is really nicely laid out, very clean and smart and the toilets were clean and presentable, and the service was very good. Just a shame that the meal was to my mind disappointing.

My third visit to Pushkar and they're still meeting a very high standard. Food and service are exemplary - I had a memorable Hyderabadi keema - and the lunch menu is extraordinarily good value for the quality. Looking forward to another visit soon.

The service was friendly and the food was nice. We asked for gluten free poppadoms and they gave us both kinds without warning so ended up eating gluten when I had specifically said I am celiac. The food was good but not outstanding. I would recommend it as it has a great atmosphere. It gets very busy so recommend booking

Fantastic Indian restaurant in the heart of Birmingham. Could not fault any of the dishes we ordered. All of it was made fresh and was worth the short wait. Staff were very attentive and knowledgeable. Would recommend Pushkar to anyone visiting the city and would definitely revisit on our return to Birmingham.

We love Pushkars but were disappointed with our experience today. We booked lunch for four but when we arrived the lunch menu was unavailable (too near Christmas apparently but there were no groups in) so we had to have a la carte. Unsurprisingly the restaurant was almost empty and we were politely made to feel they wanted rid of us - asking if we wanted dessert before we finished our mains as the chefs wanted to go, turning the lights down and locking the front door, asking us to leave through the rear. We had arrived on time at 1.00 so did not expect to be rushed. The food was great but too expensive and much too rushed for a relaxing lunch with friends. Not what we expect from one of our favourite places!

An absolutely lovely restaurant, with great decor and really nicely laid out. Staff are really welcoming, service is attentive but not intrusive. The food is wonderful, beautifully presented, with really subtle flavours. The starter menu, in particular, is an absolute delight. We will be returning!

We thoroughly enjoyed our evening at Pushkar and it's clearly a popular restaurant. The service was good and attentive, food was of a good standard, we would eat there again and am happy to recommend it. It was certainly a treat and a great place to go for a special occasion.

Everything was fine. We were running 20 minutes late and I called and they said "no problem". Food was great. We had a 4 and 7 year old with us and they accommodated them with non-spicy chicken and rice. The adults enjoyed a full 3 course meal. There was pleanty of options and they even "down graded" the spicyness of my meal to suit. Staff were really helpful. I would say Probably the best Asian restaurant in Birmingham. I would throughly recommend it. Not cheap but you get what you pay for!
