    Qavali is a beautifully designed restaurant with a unique interior that transports you straight to the Mediterranean. The ambiance is stunning, with intricate details that make the dining experience feel special. The food was absolutely delicious—unlike anything I’ve tasted in Birmingham. Every bite was bursting with rich aromas and flavors that left a lasting impression. The service was excellent overall, though at times, it felt like we were being watched and asked if we had finished, even though we were still enjoying our meal and conversation. Despite this, we had a fantastic time and can’t wait to go back!

    We went for the tasting menu for my fiancée's birthday. What an experience. The food was out of this world and there was just so much of it....we had to ask for a doggy bag 😂 would highly recommend it. Some awesome cocktails too. The restaurant is lovely and the staff were super friendly and attentive. A special shout out to Mavank our waiter for the evening. He was brilliant. I happened to mention that it was my fiancée's birthday in passing and the next thing we knew, we had a baklava with a candle on it and a non alcoholic cocktail brought to the table. Absolutely fantastic evening, thank you 😊

    My friends and I had an incredible dining experience at Qavali last night, and I must say, it’s a true hidden gem in the heart of Birmingham. This stunning restaurant offers a luxurious yet welcoming atmosphere, with an extraordinary fusion of Indo-Persian flavors that take you on a culinary journey. From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the warm ambiance, elegant leafy décor, and the soft glow of lanterns that exuded rich cultural charm. The menu is truly a masterpiece, offering a carefully curated selection of dishes inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Persia, Turkey and India. Each plate is a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. Even the drinks menu is an experience in itself 😊 very detailed and extensive, almost like a textbook of mixology. Among our choices, two of my friends opted for the Baluchi charcoal chicken, I indulged in the Lahori lamb chops, and another friend enjoyed the Punjabi chicken tikka. For drinks, I had the Scarlet, while my friends sipped on the Akbar & Alphonso, though I can’t quite recall the last drink on our table. Service was impeccable! The staff were attentive yet unobtrusive, ensuring we had a seamless dining experience. Even after dinner, as we waited for our ride, they allowed us to linger and catch up without any rush. Their knowledge of the menu was impressive, offering helpful recommendations with genuine enthusiasm. If you’re looking for a dining experience that’s both unique and unforgettable when in Birmingham. Qavali is a great choice, I can’t recommend it enough!
