Mowgli Street Food Birmingham

The only good thing about this place was the interior design. The service and food was appalling. On arrival, the waiter walked off without any type of greet took us to our table and then walked off. We waited 30 minutes before any member of staff came to our table. We ordered drinks and food. Three members of the table ordered fries but beware they are not fries! They are small potatoes with mint sauce on which are not tasty at all. I ordered the sticky chicken and was then told this wasn’t available, I asked for three more things but all three weren’t available and was put on the spot and had no time to re-look through the menu so had to choose the wrap. This came out ten minutes later than my fries and later than the rest of the tables food. The wrap was flat on a plate with a few pieces of chicken, salad and mint sauce and was not tasty at all. The waitress we had was extremely rude and as she walked past us she gave my table continuous dirty looks alongside the rest of the staff there. We ordered dessert, and due to an allergy of strawberries, my partner asked if any strawberries was present in the pudding, to which the waiter replied ‘what? It’s pomegranate’ and slid the brownie across the table, frowned and walked off. When asking for the cocktail menu, the waitress was extremely rude and kept laughing. After showing our ID she continued to frown and stare at us. We asked for the bill early as we couldn’t stay in that atmosphere. The bill came to £178 but they added a £20 tip bringing the total to £200. We asked for the tip to be removed as we was not happy with the service we received. Everybody payed individually. We all rounded our totals up so that we could pay the £1 donation. This meant we definitely had payed over the final bill. As we left, two members of my group walked behind. The waitress stopped them and said they were 20p short despite them paying over. My friend gave them 50p in cash to which the waitress smirked and turned around not offering to give her the 30p back. This isn’t a massive issue but considering they made a massive deal of a 20p under payment they should surely appreciate they need to give back their customer their 30p overpayment. The staffs atmosphere and attitude to work was absolutely disgusting. I will never be eating here or attending here again and will make sure to let peers know to avoid this restaurant in the future.

Have you ever thought that the interior design of an unfamiliar restaurant can guide you towards the flavors you will soon discover? That's exactly how it is at Mowgli Food restaurant in Birmingham. The softly flickering lights hidden in beautiful, large (and importantly, very clean!) jars create an incredible introduction to a culinary feast. You find yourself surrounded by thousands, even millions of twinkling lights, uncovering the mysterious world of Indian cuisine. It may seem obvious, seemingly well-known, yet it feels like discovering it anew, just like those lights.
And the attentive staff taking care of you. Very helpful, but absolutely unobtrusive. Always ready to assist you. And understanding towards our children - who are not easy, unfortunately. 😉
You know that the proposed dishes and a good glass of wine will make this meal unforgettable.
It's a shame that I can't visit there this weekend!

This is my 2nd visit here and I can't wait to go back. Situated in the food court of the station it stands out because of the beautiful decor, with thousands of fairy lights sparkling. Very nice seating arrangement, with some booths, the staff are always friendly and efficient. The food is fabulous, served in Tiffin tins, and beautiful silver square plates to eat from. I chose 3 dishes, chickpeas in Darjeeling tea, lentil Dahl, and potato with spinach and tomato. My companion had buttered chicken and flatbread. Everything was perfect. Highly recommended.

The food was amazzzzing, definitely, I’m coming again🤩. Also, the staff were very welcoming, thank you all for the service🥰. (I recommend to book before).

Mowgli, an Indian restaurant situated in Bull Ring, Birmingham Central. Notably, the establishment was relatively calm during my time there. A noteworthy aspect was the absence of appetizers on the menu, which exclusively featured main course dishes. While the items were reasonably priced, the portion sizes, upon consideration, seemed somewhat modest for an individual with a hearty appetite.

The restaurant's interior, adorned with dim lighting, posed a challenge in terms of menu readability. The utilization of cutlery presented in a recycled ghee tin struck me as a slightly downgraded aesthetic choice. Despite these observations, I must commend the staff for their exceptional politeness and courtesy. Impressively, the food was promptly served within a mere 10 minutes of placing the order.

The culinary experience proved to be a highlight, with the flavors resonating exceptionally well. In light of the commendable quality of the food, I would rate Mowgli with a score of 4 out of 5.

This was my 1st to this restaurant and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. As I usually do normal standard India restaurants.

Anyway the food was really nice and a great mixture of spices thrown in to add the element of difference to the eating experience. They are small portions and I had a mixture of 4 separate dishes to share with
others so we had a good selection of different foods. The staff are really pleasant and the food was served all at the same time too. Highly recommended.

I have come to this venue on a number of occasions and it's always been a good experience.
They really focus on their flavouring. It's a small and simple menu but it works. The venue has great ambiance, however it could be a bit warmer.
But overall I would return, and will recommend to all.
Try the chaat bombs as starters, they are so good.

The food is priced surprisingly well and the atmosphere is very nice. Flavour wise things are rather mild, we were trying to order something that had some heat to it but were left disappointed. Still some great options though
