About Five Rivers À La Carte

Five Rivers À La Carte is an Indian restaurant in Walsall at 11 Vicarage Pl, where a live pianist plays in a split-level room with exposed brick and beams. The restaurant is halal, and starters include lamb chops and tandoori jhinga. A bar serves cocktails and mocktails, among them the Sweet Passion and Wild Fraise mocktails. At the table, staff take coats, lay napkins on laps and top up water. The mezzanine level hosts private functions and group parties. Reservations are required. The restaurant sits on a one-way street with no direct parking, and a pay and display council car park is nearby.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often point to private events and group celebrations, with a Nikkah function, a first birthday, a surprise birthday for about 16 guests and a party of 32 all described as running smoothly in the mezzanine. Close behind is the food, called fresh, full of flavour and served hot, with the lamb chops and tandoori jhinga starters singled out, along with canapés, a blueberry cheesecake and Sweet Passion and Wild Fraise mocktails. Several praise the attentive, friendly staff, who kept platters refilled, took coats and topped up water, and a pianist playing popular songs also earns mentions. Portions and value are called good by some. The caveat comes from one four-star reviewer, whose friends found the dishes way too salty, who says prices are about double those of a normal curry house, and who found the restaurant too quiet, with few customers even at dinner. One reviewer adds that the street has no direct parking. One group with dietary requirements said those needs were met well, and kid friendly meals went down a treat.

    “We hadn’t visited Five Rivers in Walsall for a while, but we’re so glad we came back! The food and service were just as amazing as we remembered. Everything was fresh, full of flavour and really enjoyable. A special mention to our waitress, Tara, who was so kind, welcoming and attentive throughout our meal. She really added to the lovely experience. We definitely won’t be leaving it so long next time and will be visiting much more frequently. Highly recommend!”

    “We had our private Nikkah function at 5 Rivers in Walsall on the 24/5/26 in the Mezzanine. From the moment we made contact with Hamza and began the preparations for the event , the whole process was seamless. He was so accommodating and attentive with each of our requests and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for the big day. Dal provided the decor and the whole mezzanine looked stunning. Along with the relaxing music played by the pianist, it created the perfect ambience and atmosphere. Jason and Hamza were absolutely fantastic on the day and made sure everything went to plan. The food was amazingly fresh and so delicious. Everything was kept topped up and served nice and hot. The Canapés went down a treat! Desserts were presented beautifully, the blueberry cheesecake was velvety, light and fluffy! The Sweet Passion and Wild Fraise mocktails were really refreshing and tasty. The service was spot on, the staff so friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had the most amazing event thanks to all their help and support in making this a wonderful memorable experience. Thank you Hamza, Jason and all the staff at 5 Rivers. If you are planning an event we would certainly recommend 5 Rivers Walsall. We are delighted to give it a 5 star rating!”

    “Planned a surprise birthday meal for my sister , with around 16 guests. Food was fabulous everyone mentioned how tasty and good the food was , had a couple of dietary requirements of which the needs were met very well, the service attention to detail was top tier. Jason and the staff members were all very attentive to us , re-filling our platters up promptly. We were allocated a slightly private area of the mezzanine which was perfectly suited to our group! Kid friendly meals went down a treat! Everything from start to end was perfect .. thank you for helping create a lovely memory for my sisters birthday , look forward to our next visit.”
