    Worst food ever had till now i have ordered 5 items 2 starters chicken and lamb tikka(average) and main course with garlic naan’s and chicken murgh(below average) and a chicken haleem in this they gave us the chicken gravy with 4 small chicken tandoori pieces inside and they call it as haleem(*im attaching the image of chicken murgh and chicken haleem please guess which one is haleem because both tastes the same) really disgusting and disappointed please do not waste your money by going to this restaurant i suggest (Delhi 76)is far better than pickles. i don’t want to hurt anybody this is my own opinion! Thanks

    Obsolutly disappointed with the food. Seeing Google reviews we expected it to be good, but not worth it. Most of the reviews seems to be not genuine. Meat is half cooked, there is raw smell. Currys are all taste same, both chicken and aloo. Curry seems to be reheated left over. Biryani is a disaster. Rice is half cooked. Avoid this place if you looking for authentic Indian cuisine. And staff seems to act sarcastic.

    Disappointed with the food. Felt the food was prepared some days back and simply heated before serving to us. That's actually normal in uk but felt like it was prepared some weeks back. Chicken tastes really bad. When we complained about this to the people in the hotel, they asked whether we know this dish or whether we tasted prior. That question really disappointed us and didn't expected this behaviour from them. Briyani is not authentic, it's felt like normal tomato rice.

    worst food experience I had in pickles, Meat was half cooked and having raw taste. Staff were just ignoring when complaining the raw taste. Aloo and chicken currys taste more or less similar. Expected lot more from pickles.

    Well the service was good, but at the same time it wasn't. I'm indian Asian and I went there with my friends. When we first entered it was full of white people, confusing as the reviews said the food was good so I though lots of Indians will be there. How the cuisine is made its directly made for white ppl. Like the food was dry, I ordered fish it had bones, i was physically choking on the bone, the butter chicken was to sweet. The way it was plated was deffo for white, I had fish with raw onions and peppers like what and I had fried rice. Yeah no... the rice was just boiled in hot water no salt no fried Ness no nothing, tasted like oatmeal.... its rice how can u mess up rice. My friend had garlic naan, there was minched up garlic just chucked on the bread not even mixed or anything, just thrown there.The service was good like the food was on time but since we were Asian ppl there they kinda rushed us, like asking if we were done and they would eye us before the went to the kitchen. The coke was flat. If it was an Indian cuisine why couldn't they call it achar meaning pickle in punjabi. The prices were good, 12.90£ decent price.

    First time at this restaurant and will definitely be going back. Great service. Staff were very welcoming and we didn’t feel rushed. Two curries, two naans and rice plus 4 beers came to £35. Great value. I recommend the Desi Karahi.

    Ordered take-away. Both mains were delicious (chicken jogenthika and chicken jalfrezi). I even got some free sauces a salad and a poppadum - thanks. And they offer a 15% discount for cash on collections Will definitely be visiting again.

    I booked a table for 13 people. The food was OK, but the service wasn't good at all, me and my husband arrived first waiting for family to arrive, we could tell the staff were very impatient and their manner was quite rude considering we had quite a large table that the customer service standard would be better, won't be returning, Food 5/10, customer service 1/10

    Been in for a meal and was lovely, meal and service. Decided to try a takeaway, it was awful, the currys were watery and we had to hunt for the chicken in vast amounts of sauce. We ordered 6 poppadoms only recieved 2 with pots and pots of pickles and mint sauce. 2 portions of each samosas & onion bhaji was 2 tiny samosas and 2 bhajis. Not a good takeaway experience

    What a great experience, the food was first class and the staff were so helpful. What great value too. We are looking forward to the next visit! Thank you for a most enjoyable evening.

    This curry house was new to us. Staff are great and they make you feel welcome. We have eaten twice at pickles. First time was at the restaurant and it was ace. All the dishes we ordered were great. The second time we visited was for a takeaway collection. Sadly this was a really bad run. We ordered four dishes and all of them had the same sauce. Followed with a burnt smell. Never have I had a curry order where the sauce was the same on all four dishes (saag, okra, balti, and jeera). Normally I would say that’s a rookie mistake but this mistake was below that. Almost deliberate and lazy from someone who decided to do this. All restaurants have there up and downs and I wouldn't knock this place entirely off because I enjoyed eating in. Takeaways after that dilemma? No chance.

    Had two home deliveries so far and I can’t fault them at all, food was amazing. Delivery guy in a smart suit/friendly/polite, both times with free popadoms and dips. Definitely recommend 👍

    i was on along drive back to London and decided to stop in Coventry for a curry as this was half way home. It was a quiet Sunday evening and when we arrived the restaurant was empty. Not to worry because we were met with a warm smile and some fantastic food. The restaurant was soon filling up and we had a great couple of hours with some graet food. The staff were friendly and itwas good food at reasonable prices.. Thank you

    We've not been for a few months due to illness but as always greeted with a warm and friendly welcome and as for the food it was AMAZING as always.

    First and definitely not our last visit last night to celebrate my husbands birthday and our son and daughter in law's wedding anniversary. Food was amazing as were the lovely attentive staff. Our first outing since the start of Covid did not disappoint. If anyone, like me, is nervous about eating out, don't be. I was very impressed with the deep clean every table and eating area was given as the diners left, even the mirror on the wall. Thanks for a great evening Pickles 👏👏👏

    One of the best Indian meals I've ever had, and I eat a lot of Indian food. The guys were friendly and professional, and the beer was fresh. What more can you ask for really?

  • 3/5 Matthew A. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff still as friendly as ever and they still remembered us even though we hadn't been for literally years. Food not as good as it used to be...chicken in my meal was quite tough. It felt like ingredients in curry had been cooked separately and thrown together last minute to reheat together..no cooking slowly together to marry all flavours. Prawn puri starter nice....and large.

  • 1/5 Steven J. 2 years ago on Google
    So we tried to find a good Cov curry and failed again. Good start. Fast service. Then my curry come out. I’m trying it and they come over and take it away. They replace it with an onion dish which I didn’t order. On questioning, it the was took away and instantly another dish was available that tasted different again. My dish seemed to reappear for the table next to us. All this time the naan was getting cold. Getting 3 dishes in 5 minutes that all looked like the same sauce was worrying. Stay away fellow travellers. Let’s face it. Birmingham is curry.
