10/10Excellent food. The lamb shank was very good quality meat, very well cooked (although in my opinion the dish had been over-flavoured with cloves) but tasty nonetheless. The mixed platter is highly recommendable.

8/10Very enjoyable. Staff were friendly and efficient, very good value for money. It wasn't as busy as we expected so it did lack a bit of atmosphere.

10/10We live nearby but had never ventured in. Really pleased that we did, as the food was excellent. We will definitely be back. We can recommend the Chicken Saag and the Kerala fish curries.

7/10The food was excellent, the ambiance very good. I had narrowed my choice down to two mains and chose what I thought would be the less spicy of the two, but it was spicier than I expected — not a complaint, I like Indian food that way. The only negatives were that they could not do a decaf coffee and that they charged me for two courses I didn’t order and I had to go back twice to get it resolved. They weren’t difficult about it though.

9.5/10Great food (sharing platter was a fun surprise, and very tasty mains), nice interior, service a little slow but this didn’t affect my experience overall. 5/5.

10/10My colleagues and I had a lovely dinner at the Ark. The vibe was great and and we were looked after extremely well by Santhosh. The food was very special, there was a sense of theatre when our Premium sharing platter arrived, beautifully presented with smoke and decorated with edible flowers. We ordered 3 different main meals and shared them. Each dish was fabulous. We highly recommend a visit!!

9.5/10Wonderful food and great service from Tish. The menu was extensive and had some unfamiliar dishes - nice to try something new. If we are in Birmingham again we will return.

3.5/10Empty at just before 7pm. No one came in later. Starter was over cooked heavy amritsari fish pakora. This should be light and delicate. The worst attempt at this dish I have ever had. Did not taste fresh at all. Main of sea bass was again overcooked and a heavy dish trying to pretend there was a reasonable sized fillet of fish by sitting the smallest possible seabass fillet on mashed potato. Sauce and rice were good. Only two aspects of food worth eating. Rum based cocktail was pleasant. Staff friendly but clear they wanted to go home. Why not admit this place fails on a sunday night and close rather than take bookings and then resent the customers being there?? Grossly overpriced. Not value for money at all. The Ark does not sadly deliver. Avoid.
