Outstanding Food and great service!
We had a fantastic dining experience at Lasan. The ambience of the restaurant is excellent, setting the perfect mood for a wonderful meal.
The food was absolutely delicious, with good portions across all courses. We started with the crab starter, sarson king prawns, and the kasturi chicken- each dish was beautifully prepared, presented and bursting with flavor. For our mains, both the butter chicken and the lamb dishes were rich, tender, and incredibly tasty. We finished the meal with the beetroot halwa for dessert, which was top-notch and a perfect sweet conclusion to the meal.
Service was great-attentive, friendly, and professional. Highly recommend Lasan if you're looking for an exceptional meal!
We visited Lasan on a Jewellery Quarter Food Tour back in March and my husband decided we should return and try Lasan's 6 course tasting menu along with a wine flight for my husband.
Each course was elegantly presented and served with a description of what each plate was. The food, wine and service were outstanding.
We both felt that the meal was great value for money compared to tasting menus in other restaurants that we have tried in recent times.
We will definitely be visiting Lasan again and we highly recommend this lovely restaurant.
Servers were very good and food was incredible.
We had the tasting menu with wine pairings and it did not disappoint.
Well worth the money and experience. Staff were very nice.
The ONLY gripe was that the first few courses came really fast but then had a 45 minute wait for the main. It was worth the wait but when you have a matching menu, you also run out of a drink! The water bottles are expensive so we had to wait for the main and drink.
Fantastic meal & service at the Lasan restaurant. Lovely greeting when we arrived from the restaurant manager Prajna who was very helpful and informative. Cocktails were ordered which were yummy. Starters & main were amazing, plenty of everything but not too much to overwhelm. Atmosphere was calm & inviting & the decor was sophisticated. Would definitely recommend & if visiting Birmingham again would come again.
I am so glad we booked Lasan today, was an extraordinary experience! We’ve been welcomed by a young and gorgeous lady Arusha and she was our host for the entire evening, very kind, friendly and attentive. She explained all the ingredients and details about the culinary culture.We’ve booked the 6 course testing menu and we enjoyed every single one, without leaving anything on the plate. Delicious, fresh, lots of flavours and when we thought we can’t eat the dessert , we’ve been so surprised to see how light and not even that sweet. We absolutely love it! Thank you!
