Akash Tandoori is an Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant at 1425 Pershore Road in Bournville. It welcomes table bookings as well as collection and delivery orders, giving local diners the choice of a full restaurant meal or food to enjoy at home.
The menu opens with samosas, pakora, kebabs, chicken tikka, lamb tikka and seafood starters. Tandoori chicken, shashlik, lamb tikka and a mixed grill draw on the clay oven, bringing together marinated meat, high heat and the smoky character associated with this style of cooking.
Curries span familiar sauces and house combinations, supported by an extensive biryani section that includes chicken, lamb, prawn, king prawn and vegetable choices. Rice, naan and vegetable side dishes allow diners to balance richer mains with simpler accompaniments or assemble a varied shared meal.
The restaurant is suited to family dinners, small gatherings and an unhurried evening out, while its takeaway service offers a more informal option. Guests with allergies or dietary requirements should speak with staff about the current recipes and shared kitchen before ordering.
