Ahmed’s Spice is an Indian restaurant at 594 Kingsbury Road in Erdington. Open each evening, it combines a broad curry house menu with welcoming table service, making it suited to both a relaxed local dinner and a larger meal shared among family or friends.
Starters include pakora, samosas, seekh kebab, tandoori chicken and mixed platters of chicken, lamb and king prawn. Papadoms, chutneys, raita and salads let diners begin with familiar accompaniments before moving to richer grilled dishes and curries.
