  “had a wonderful dining experience here. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the Yaprak and the baby chicken they were full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The atmosphere was beautiful, the restaurant was very clean, and the staff were incredibly polite friendly, and welcoming. Thank you all for the excellent service. I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back again”

  “I recently visited Awa Restaurant on Rookery Road in Birmingham, and I was genuinely impressed. The grilled lamb chops were absolutely outstanding—perfectly seasoned, tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The kofta kebabs were equally delicious, packed with authentic flavour and beautifully grilled. What really stood out was the incredible value for money. The portion sizes were generous, the quality of the food was excellent, and the prices were very affordable. The staff were friendly and welcoming, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere from the moment we arrived. If you're looking for authentic, tasty grilled food in Birmingham, Awa Restaurant is definitely worth a visit. The lamb chops and kofta kebabs are among the best I've had, and I'll certainly be returning. Highly recommended!”

  “We ordered a variety, but the chicken was very dry and tasteless. Additionally, the salad wasn't fresh; it was an old salad that came with the dishes. The service was very poor, after we had lunch, we waited for around 15 to 20 minutes. No one came to check on us or move the plates until we asked one of the staff members to bring two teas (but we received a tea in the espresso shot). This was shocking, but other customers around us were receiving it in much bigger teacups. We couldn't understand why. Even when we made the payment, the lady on the cashier was on the phone and didn't have any customer service experience and was not respectful to the customer. ( which she should have respected the customer and paid full attention rather than being on the phone while serving). We drove three hours to get there as we were told it is a nice place with nice food but shame we didn't experience that at all. And the customer service was unbelievably shocking. We would never go back there again.”

  “Absolutely unacceptable experience. 😡 When we arrived, the staff asked us to move tables because a large family was coming. Out of respect, we agreed without any complaint. Unfortunately, that was the beginning of a terrible experience. After moving, we waited approximately 35 minutes just to receive a menu or have someone acknowledge us. During that time, multiple other families who arrived around the same time—or even after us—were served and attended to while we were completely ignored. What made this even more frustrating was the apparent lack of any fair queue system. It felt as though certain customers were being prioritized while we were forgotten entirely. Whether this was because staff knew those customers personally or simply poor management, the result was the same: disrespectful and unprofessional service. No customer should be asked to change tables as a favor to the restaurant and then be left waiting for over half an hour without basic attention. We showed patience and courtesy, but received neither in return. This was one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences I've had. The food may be good, but service like this completely ruins the experience. I cannot recommend a place that treats customers this way, and I will not be returning.”

  “I recently visited your restaurant and was quite disappointed with my experience. The portion sizes were much smaller than expected, especially considering the price. Additionally, the food was overcooked, which affected both the texture and overall taste of the dishes. I had been looking forward to this meal, but unfortunately it did not meet expectations. I hope you can take this feedback on board and improve both portion sizes and food preparation in the future.”

  “Well, friendly staff! Definitely 💯 Nice place for Middle Eastern cuisine, especially Kurdish cuisine. They serve soup when you arrive, it’s lentil soup. I like it, for free! As a starter , humus and the bread was amazing ! Then you order your food, portion was quite big, so you will be overfill ! Like they bring side and another soup with your food ( like rice, chips, salad or whatever) And traditional bread was fresh and amazing ! End of your food they serve tea for free. And they have great desserts at menu !! Well we were two we had those foods and we paid 30£, great prices!!”
