Shahi Masala

The atmosphere is very cosy and nice especially for a family. The price is a great value for a buffet. the variety of food is somewhat good but lacks more Chinese and Italian cuisine. The live stir fry bar was a really nice touch to the whole experience. Overall a very nice visit!

This Ward End based Continental buffet provides an essence from different parts of the World. Shahi Masala have combined Indian, Chinese and Italian together to contain a mixture of flavours at this buffet.
The place is very modern, with nice décor and just a nice vibe to the restaurant as a whole. It’s a big food place with lots of staff, always keen to help.
This clean restaurant provided amazing dessert and me and my Girlfriend argued whether the Indian food or Chinese food was better. So it caters for a variety of tastes and preferences. Thoroughly enjoyed the meal and would recommend to anyone.

ive been to this place twice, once in the afternoon and once in the evening. I went to the evening to see if it was any better.
The outside of the restaurant is kept clean, nice parking space also.
Each time ive gone ive had poor service. No greeting when you arrive. Its wasnt even busy. just a quick seat down.
The two waiters were grumpy and again the waiter who took our drinks did not speak or understand english well.
Anyways the food was okay the salad bar had a nice selection and displayed neatly.
As for the starters hardly any variety, chips, wedges, bbq wings and chicken tikka. that was it for starters.
You cant class chips or wedges as starters there more like sundries.
anyways the mains were good, in terms of indian. but no chinese food. only live cooking station. the pizza was terrible looked like frozen pizza to be honest.
the desserts was much better with choice two gateux, ice cream fruit salad and the assortments of indian sweets.
this place is similar to the review i put for lazzat buffet, why do they say they do chinese food when theres hardly any selection, the italian food was none of i feel i was ripped off, i think it was 12.95 p/​head for just eating indian food.
Now dont get me wrong if you say you do chinese/​italian there should be a nice mix of all the cuisine.
if they just did indian food with a larger selection i would be happy to pay that price but if you say you do something and theres no balance then you feel cheated.
In conclusion there are may improvement they can make, but there are better restaurants out there doing a similar thing.

We went on Saturday and thought this would be a good day as they would have the most variety of dishes. We thought wrong .
There were more of the indian dishes by far and although they looked OK, the majority of items lacked flavour although they had pepper heat.
The italian dishes amounted 5 and the beef lasagne was the only beef dish in the whole restaurant .
The chinese dishes were not great in range or type — the stir fry ingrediants looked limp and again not great quality .
The desserts were ok not great .
To be honest I was expecting not great quality food and I got it …

Yesterday I had an honour to have my wedding anniversary treat in Shahi Masala Buffet Restaurant. and wow what an impression it had on me… beautiful environment. a bit noisy at first but very neat and clean place to have food. and choice of food is just awesome. The quality of service is outstanding. The price is very very reasonable as well considering the range of food choices they have.
I am well impressed with this place. I have never experienced such a great food experience in Birmingham before.
Very Very good place to take friends and family for a dinner night and impress them.
Very decent staff who will make you feel special.
I will definitely recommend this place to all and everyone.

This place is great! it is an Indian, Italian and Chinese Buffet restaurant. It is very large and spacious inside not suprising as it is a converted pub.
It is a self service buffet so as soon as you walk in just help yourself to the meals on display. There are many tables and chairs so you can take the whole family for a party, or go out with your freinds or eat on your own if you must.
For starters there are sheesh kebabs in small sizes, chicken wings in lovely thick bbq sauce, fries, samosas, pakoras and many many more!
The restauarant offers two meal offers which are day time ones being at £5 and the evening ones being at £10. With the day time offer the Italian and Chinese are excluded from the menu.
The Italian meals are pizzas which are just mozarella cheese and tomato ones and they come in small sizes. There are also speghatti bolognese there.
The Chinese are made fresh right before your eyes you tell the chef what you would like to go with the noodles like prawns.
With the Indian meals there’s a variety of currys there in lift open balties like lamb meat, chicken meat and vegetarians. And you can have these dishes with either naan breads which are cut into quarters or have them with a variety of rices (egg fried, brown etc)
The staff are well dressed and can be helpful though on my second visit there i had to wait very long for a bottle of water which i had to remind the staff to get me it.
Toilets are also nice and clean.
