Dilshad Indian & Takeaway

Head down to Harborne's stretch of Bristol Road and you'll find Dilshad doing what it does best: straightforward, no-nonsense Indian food that tastes like someone actually cares. You're looking at a place that's been earning its stripes with locals for years, not trying to reinvent the biryani or charge you £18 for a starter. The menu runs the full gamut—punchy tandooris, rich curries that don't mess about, and breads that come out properly charred. It's the kind of spot where families pile in on weekends and groups of mates rock up midweek without needing a reservation weeks in advance.
