Great way to start any new year, so truly recommend this gastronomic Indian restaurant in Birmingham. Yes, it's has been there a while, and others may regard the newer entrants as better, but having been several times to Itihaas, it's never failed - especially the quality of the food and superb menu selection. Will be happy to visit again later in 2025!

Very high class from start to finish. Service amazing and staff highly professional and friendly. A special shout out to Will Taylor-Lucas who demonstrated everything that is good about the younger generation. The food was unique and "to die for"!! Thank you - we will be back - as soon as we can afford it. Only suggestion - don't add 12.5% service charge to bill - it is about the right price without that - let people add tips if they want to - I would have!!!! Thanks for a great night out.

Rajdoot is quite probably the best Indian in Birmingham, and we’ve tried them all. Wonderful service, cuisine and ambience. Can’t recommend it highly enough. We had a superb Christmas Day lunch and it was full of smiley happy people.
