• Italian • Birmingham

Booked 15 times today

Fine Italian food in the very centre of Birmingham is Cucina Rustica's trademark, a comfortable, atmospheric Italian restaurant popular with both locals and tourists visiting this vibrant city. Although modern and slick in its execution, the choice of deep earthy colours and moody lighting, tactile materials such as wood and stone and the addition of characterful contemporary art and healthy, verdant plants give Cucina Rustica that slight traditional feel suggested by its name and a certain cosiness that gives it a home from home feel. Attention to detail is in every little touch here at Cucina Rustica, from the single rose placed on each table to the complementary olives produced on every guest's arrival. Equally, food is produced with great care, dishes traditionally Italian but done with flair and a certain amount of style, some unusual choices offered alongside classic favourites, all from the classic Italian cookbook and accompanied by a wide array of drinks.

When you come to Opheem, you get an insight into the inner workings of my mind. We’re striving to push the boundaries with Indian flavours, but with cooking techniques from all over the world, some traditional, and some very modern. At Opheem, I’ll be using the same paints as I’ve always done, to create a very different picture, on a very, very different canvas. Why? Because to evolve and adapt is what makes us human, and cooking is what sets us apart from the animals.

Look for the beautiful lady at the front, she did very well in getting us a table and was proactive in getting my girlfriend a cake. A big thank you to Adriano, who was super helpful and helped us made decisions on food to eat. Food and drinks were good. 5 star treatment.

We went for our Christmas lunch & there was supposed to be 8 but only 5 could make it. We all had 3 courses and wine & the food was perfect, only disappointment was they’d run out of Tiramisu 😂. It was refreshing that we didn’t have to pre-order our food or have to have the normal Christmas meal. I’d have booked for NYE but they didn’t have availability. Thank you to all the staff for making it such an enjoyable experience & wish you all a very merry Christmas 🤶
