The interior is beautiful, with traditional paintings surrounding you and elegant furniture however not the same could be said for the menu which looked as if it had come from a diner rather than a restaurant. Ignoring this minute detail, we still carried on to order the lamb platter, chicken Karahi and masoor dal with two rotis and naan and a jug of mango lassi. Initially we were given a poppadom each, with a selection of the sauces : mango, yogurt and mint and chilli The lamb platter was served with a base of spiced rice and fries, topped with seek kebabs, lamb chops and lamb tikka. The lamb was flavoursome and cooked very well, and accompanied the spiced rice brilliantly. The chicken Karahi had that lovely smoky taste, and , assured by the waiter, was freshly cooked. The masoor dal was a little bland, but still tasty and last but not least, the lassi was sweet, thick and rich. I'd definitely go again!

The food came out really quickly and the service was very good. U could see the food being cooked (although I must admit I did not pay attention...!). Thank you Ekachai I will definately come again.

Sometimes the food tastes bland or too salty. That's because they cook big portions of stuff, so some food might be overcooked. I do enjoy their starters and currys.

I am happy to say that this place really does! Myself and a mate went in the other day and I was happy to see chicken wraps on the menu made with fresh grilled chicken, salad and blue cheese sauce....I expecting a carb overload as the place is called chop & Wok but alas.....some great healthy alternatives are available! Lovely. The wrap was only about £4 so I was not expecting it ti be as good as it was. It was really something.....the chicken was succulent and fresh and the blue cheese sauce was a really winner. The only slight downside to this place is the fact that its SO hot inside we sat in and I swear I nearly lost half a stone from overheating......I will say though this is more of a take away joint so dont let thins put you off at all they also have seating outside :) If you want somthing fresh and fast....chop and wok

I don't know if they were just having a really bad time tonight or what... but... bleh. I'm amazed at how they were able to mess up Chinese fast food. It seems like other reviewers like this place, so perhaps tonight was anomalous, but I was *super* disappointed with my noodles this evening. The sauce (I opted for the sweet and sour) was so watered down and it just totally lacked any flavor whatsoever (usually the best part of these places is the abundance of MSG-enhanced sauce). The veg was really overcooked and soggy and just... all in all disappointing. My partner got a totally different noodle/sauce/topping combination and was equally disappointed-- his actually just tasted burnt. Service was very friendly, though. Everyone there seemed on top of their jobs, despite it being an rather busy Friday night with lots of delivery orders coming in. I mean, maybe we just weren't drunk enough? Obviously this place gets points for the convenience, but for roughly the same price you can pop into one of many restaurants in China Town for takeaway 10x better than this.

I was in Birmingham for a night last month (hurray for cheap flights). I was at my hostel and…read morestarted wondering "is there a dish/food Birmingham is known for?" Well Google told me about balti, some kind of Indian curry dish. I love curry so I wanted to give balti a try. Hen and Chickens came up when I was looking for a restaurant serving Balti, and it was close to my hostel. Outside looks like a typical pub. Inside it's not a huge pub/restaurant, but the high ceiling and big windows let in lots of light (even in December) and makes it feel nice and open. I was there in mid-afternoon and it wasn't too busy. I ordered the lamb balti with garlic naan. I also got a pint of beer. The food was delicious. Apparently balti just refers to the type of dish the curry is cooked in, but I also read that it's a curry made with vegetable oil (rather than ghee). I'm a bit lactose intolerant and sometimes curries can give me issues. Maybe it's because balti is apparently made with veg oil, but I had no issues. The curry had a nice spice, but wasn't overwhelming. Staff was nice. Food was great. This looks like nothing special on the outside, but inside there's some really great Indian food. If I'm in Birmingham again I'd definitely come back here.
