Amazing food. Hygiene score you can forgive.
The food slaps and hygiene is "Good" β not perfect, but nothing to worry about. Go for it.
My Shinwari Birmingham is the place that serves up traditional Pakistani flavors with a smile. John canβt get enough of their chapli kebab, calling it extremely tasty. Hussain felt right at home with fresh, flavorful dishes and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff here are like family, as noted by N Saman, who appreciated the warmth and hospitality.
But beware: some diners have had less-than-stellar experiences. Usman found the chicken karahi lacking, and Said had a foil incident that left a sour taste in his mouth. Overall, if youβre chasing authentic vibes and hearty meals, this is your spot β just donβt expect perfection on every plate. π½οΈ
