My number one favourite Indian restaurant, the menu is slightly different from the norm but every dish is fantastic! The food is so consistently good every time I visit.

Good food, good decor, lovely service. Could improve quantity for the price paid for some items.

Faultless on every count, have never had a visit to Lotus that's been anything less than 10/10. The food was fantastic as always, as was the service, and the live entertainment was at the perfect volume level to create atmosphere without stopping you from enjoying conversations at your table. Cannot recommend enough.

Starters:Loved the portion size and variety!Gobi Manchurian and Mushroom Kurkure were absolutely delicious - highly recommend the Kurkure!Paneer Tikka was slightly bland, could use a touch more spice or stronger marinade.Mains:Paneer Butter Masala was good, consistent quality expected from a classic dish.Garlic Naan was excellent - light, fluffy, and flavorful.Pilau rice paired well with the mains.Dessert:Chocolate Brownie was a nice sweet ending to the meal.Atmosphere & Service:Great atmosphere for dining - upbeat and enjoyable.Live music was a lovely touch!Overall:I had a very pleasant experience at Lotus Kitchen. It has a great location. The starters and atmosphere were amazing, and the mains and dessert were good. Would definitely recommend trying the Mushroom Kurkure and Garlic Naan!Vegetarian options: Onion BhajiPaneer TikkaMushroom KurkureGobi ManchurianPaneer Butter Masala

I came with my friends first time visit on Saturday for a birthday meal, I must say I have never came across such a rude staff, service was very poor. Upon arrival I was told there's no tables, after I have explained I've pre booked my table week in advanced, they told me to wait in the waiting area for over 40 min until a table is available. The drinks we ordered came wrong, not once but twice. The food came almost hour late. And we were still missing few of the dishes. The staff weren't accommodating or friendly at all. I understand its busy but a smile and asking if our food is okey should not be too difficult to do. The palak and aloo was very salty, and the lamb chops came raw. After we asked for replacement of the lamb chops it took forever, we had to cancel pay and go. Verry disappointed evening.

We have eaten in and had takeaways and never been disappointed. The most beautiful Indian food we've ever tasted. Every dish is full a flavour, but the cauliflower is our favourite dish. The tapas menu is brilliant for sharing and allowing you to try new dishes. We will continue to keep coming back and highly recommend this place to anybody.
Great all round experience. I had the taster menu which was very tasty and varied, will definitely be going back.

Brilliant night on New Years Eve. Food was delicious. Great atmosphere. Robbie Williams Tribute was fantastic!

Lotus Indian Kitchen is set in a very nice location. The food is all cooked in the kitchen that is on view for all to see. The food is very nice it is all cooked to a medium heat so if you would like it hotter or milder just ask and they are more than happy to oblige. I can recommend the fig and coriander naan (see the picture). Nice atmosphere with a live musician on the night we were there. Very friendly staff which made the whole experience a great evening.Parking: Car park about 15 meters from front door but a bit small (I counted 4 disabled parking spots). But larger overspill carpark about 300 meters away.Wheelchair accessibility: All one level so all good for wheelchairs.

The food was okay, but there were a couple of hiccups. One staff member kept mixing up our sharing platter, saying it’s our individual bowls when it was not, which was very frustrating. Plus, they only gave us a small jug of water for a group of nine people, which wasn't enough. The service could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it was an okay experience, but I hope they work on these issues.

Absolutely amazing food in the midlands!Made by authentic Indian chef’s ??(unlike other restaurants that claim they’re Indian but are are cooked by Pakistani or Bangladeshi chefs and catered to the British taste)This is the food I grew up eating at home.100% recommended (but not the nimbu pani ? - they lost that one)Wheelchair accessibility: Flat entrance
