The Curry Garden is an Indian restaurant at 16 York Road in Erdington, offering both sit down dining and food to take away. Its broad menu and traditional restaurant setting make it suitable for family meals, group dinners and relaxed evenings built around several shared dishes.
Clay oven cooking is an important part of the menu, with tikka, kebabs and other tandoori dishes bringing together marinated meats, aromatic spices and the direct heat of the oven. These can serve as starters or as the centre of a meal alongside rice, breads and vegetable dishes.
House specialities extend beyond the familiar curry house standards. Lamb and Chicken Miloni combines garlic, ginger, mustard and coriander in a semi dry sauce, while Lamb Jhanka uses tandoori lamb chops with masala and herbs. Tawa Manchurian and Fish Bhuna Bartha provide further choices for diners looking for the kitchen’s more distinctive recipes.
Balti dishes, traditional curries and biryanis complete the selection, supported by sabzi, rice and freshly prepared breads. The variety allows a table to mix mild, rich and spicier flavours, while the restaurant’s bar adds drinks that can be enjoyed throughout a full evening meal.
Address: 16 York Road, Erdington, Birmingham B23 6TE, England
