We were in Birmingham for a shopping trip and went out as a big family. My sister-in-law chose Grills Restaurant on the spot. We walked in with no plans, no booking and without checking the reviews. It was a Tuesday night and the place looked quiet at first, with only one table occupied, but we decided to give it a try. The atmosphere inside was nice and very modern. The heating was good, and both the restaurant and toilets were clean. From what I later saw in other reviews, they also have a prayer space, which is a great touch. All the food is halal. Everyone ordered separately. My kids had the lamb steak, which was good and came in large portions. The extra mac and cheese was nothing special. The chicken burger meal was decent. The spicy rice was okay but the portion was on the small side. The chips were very tasty – proper thick chips, which I loved. My wife had the sirloin steak, medium-well, with the sizzler special, served with chips and rice. That was easily the best dish on the table. I went for the rump steak meal, medium-well. It came out closer to medium-rare, so I asked for it to be redone. It was slightly better the second time, but still not quite right. I didn’t finish it as I was already full from street food earlier, so I took it home. I had it the next day for lunch and it was actually amazing – full of flavour and very tender. Next time, I’ll definitely be going for the sirloin sizzler. The staff were very friendly. The boss and the young waiter really looked after us and made us feel at home. I will definitely be going back and will try the dishes they are known for, especially the kebabs and curries. The portions are huge, great value for money, and full of flavour. There’s a wide choice of food, from peri peri and curries to kebabs and steaks. The prices were decent overall.
