Not happy with the mix grill. Definitely not cooked fresh and has been precooked. Tikka dry. Wings dry. Sheekh Kebab Definitely cooked frozen and reheated. Lamb chops dry. Lolli pop was ok. Chilli chicken was nice. Definitely won't be ordering a mix grill again.

Went to an engagement party. Food was really nice, service was good but they did try and keep taking away the food before we had finished eating. Apart from that it was really good.

This was the second time visiting the Red Cow as part of our 'lads group' monthly tour of desi pubs around the West Midlands. On our first visit, this place came out on top for its food, and the second visit did not disappoint. Between the six of us we ordered a 'fat cow' mixed grill, chicken lollipops, chilli chicken lollipops (x2), chilli king prawns (x2), Keema naan (x3), chilli chips (x3) as well as a Massala sauce and a Madras sauce for a bit of lubrication! Everything served was freshly cooked to perfection, and taste is just exquisite! The only negatives I would add are that the mixed grill is served in a baking tray rather than a traditional serving grill platter, lighting is too bright, and decor drab...but that is not a concern when the food is so good! Currently salivating over the thought of the chilli chips...so good!

Hello, Been customer since long. Yesterday ordered Mix grill, Fish pakora, Naans for collection around 5ish. Having reached home , found mix grill was not fresh and no fried onions which normally you would when eat in. Didn't taste nice at all. Naans too hard and not crispy/thin. Fish pakora look didn't sound fresh either. We know our food well. Not good on this occasion. It takes an hr to come and collect/be back and disappointing. Didn't have time to drive all the way back in person. Normally Tony in kitchen and quite good with food. Thanks Mr P Singh

The guys really enjoyed their mixed grill. I had the veg biryani and some chilli gobi. Food was ok for vegetarians. Masala chips were great!!

Went on a Thursday evening to the Red cow. Thought the worst as there was 1 table occupied by diners. How wrong we were!We went for the ‘fat cow’ chilli chips, masala chips, lollipop chicken, chilli lollipops and 3 naans. We asked for the chips and naans to be upgraded on the fat cow as it only comes with plain but it was lost in translation so we got 3 plain naans and 2 chips additional to what we wanted.The fat cow grill itself was sensational. Lamb chops - great taste, perfect amount of charring. All the chicken was juicy and full of flavour. Fish pakora - nice light batter, lots of meaty fish.The chilli chips were unreal, so so good! Definitely recommend them with the chilli lollipops. Certainly no scrimping on the portions! The only slight criticism is the grill wasn’t sizzling when it came out but it was on a oven tray as it was so big! It says on the menu it serves 8-10, there was 5 of us and we were all stuffed.Would definitely go back, be great to go when it’s busy. One of the best mixed grills we’ve all had, up there with Champys, new hen and chickens etc.

I shared a curry with my parents here. Was a lovely curry we even shared the curry, rice and a plate of chips as it was enough for 3 people and it was delicious definitely will go again for a meal here.
