Varanasi

Details

Chandeliers glitter across three expansive floors at 184 Broad Street, hinting at the opulence within Varanasi, a destination that has quickly established itself as a jewel in Birmingham's culinary scene. The city's largest restaurant, seating 350, greets you with a grand atrium and a walkway that signals immediate grandeur, leading to a richly decorated space featuring an indoor waterfall and Buddha statues reflecting its namesake, the spiritual heart of India. With several private dining rooms and three distinct cocktail bars, the ambiance is one of glamorous, luxurious, and traditional Indian hospitality, designed to offer an immersive experience from the moment you enter. Every detail, from the incense to the hand-crafted decor, contributes to an atmosphere of sumptuous decadence.

The culinary journey at Varanasi is as impressive as its surroundings, with a fine dining menu curated by industry-leading chefs that presents a new age in haute Indian cuisine. Modern dishes are created using traditional techniques and the finest quality ingredients, resulting in "artistry in every bite". Diners can anticipate starters such as Monkfish Tikka or Kashmiri Lamb Cutlets, and mains like Malabar Fish Curry or the richly flavoured Butter Chicken and Lamb Karahi. The restaurant also boasts an elegant wine list and an extensive selection of gins, whiskeys, rums, and cognacs, with cocktails like 'The Jewel of Varanasi' taking centre stage. It's an experience that has even drawn high-profile guests, with reports of Johnny Depp declaring it the "best curry he'd ever eaten".
