Priya

As a firm favourite of friends and relatives we usually end up here a couple of times a year for various birthdays and meals out.
The venue is nicely located just off Moseley high street (30 seconds off the main road) and has an entrance on to the rear public car park as well, saves running round in the rain if you drive up!
The restaurant is clean, clear and pleasing on the eyes. The menu provides a good selection of «veg» and «non veg» options for those none vegetarians out there, often providing more specialised and authentic items you would struggle to find in the plethora of student land «tikka masala» curry houses. If you cant decide on what to go for the Thali (tasting platter) is always a good option — comes in veg, none veg and fish.
Prices are fairly reasonable (especially if you are a regular and obtain a discount card — our party did have one of these) and the guys always have a smile on hand.
On this occasion though we did have a very long table wait in between ordering and food arriving and for drinks refreshes, thankfully we were all in the mood for a good chat and catch up so the wait was filled but the delay has caused the loss of one star this time.
Hopefully the next visit will have a quicker turn around and I can bump this 4 into a 5!

For a Friday Indian takeaway I wanted to true something new.
Priya had contemporary in its title and I always think the restaurants at Moseley are quite modern and interesting.
I did get my usual lamb byrani but had to try a chef special and so glad I did
I’ve copied the dish description below because it was so inviting. It was cooked perfectly, the dish wasn’t salty but had delicate flavours that infuses through the fish and seafood. The salmon was fresh, the prawns not overcooked but the cod was the winner as it absorbed all the flavors of the sauce and reminded me of marsala fish due to its slight sweetness from the tomatoes and peppers.
As with most just eat delivery it was over an hour but from Moseley to Selly Oak that’s fine.
Would definitely recommend and would like to go to the restaurant
