Monsoon Restaurant is an Indian restaurant and takeaway at 75 May Lane in Hollywood, Birmingham. The warm, relaxed dining room serves evening meals from Monday to Saturday and is set up for both planned celebrations and informal local visits.

Its cooking is grounded in spice combinations prepared individually for each dish, following methods passed through generations of Indian families. This approach gives curries, grilled dishes and house specialities their own balance rather than applying one standard sauce across the menu.

Starters, rice, naan and vegetable dishes allow diners to build a varied table around their chosen main courses. The restaurant also runs special menus for occasions through the year and provides delivery for guests who prefer to eat at home.

Tables can be reserved directly, and nearby parking adds convenience for evening visits. Guests with allergies or dietary preferences should notify the team before ordering so ingredients and any practical adjustments can be discussed clearly.

Address: 75 May Lane, Hollywood, Birmingham B47 5PA, England
