    We were a party of 8, but the service was friendly and efficient with everyone's meals served together, all freshly cooked, hot and really full of fresh flavours. The food here is better than any other similar restaurants I have tried and great value for money.

    Absolutely beautiful starters and currys and ordered the Honey peshawar naan and was a little disappointed with the sweetness and lack of coconut and sultanas. But my god the size of it was Huge!!!! The bits that had filling were delicious but could do with a more consistent filling. The staff were a little slow with drinks and struggled to get there attention at times.but overall a VERY yummy curry. Also worth noting the place is alcohol free,I believe you can take your own. But they do not sell alcohol

    We’ve been using the Watan since 1989, when it all looked very different! It’s always been the best Balti restaurant we have ever been to and even though we now live on the South Coast every time we are in the Midlands we always go back! The consistency of the taste and quality of the food is incredible, I have always had the same Balti (boring, I know) and it tasted the same last night as the first time I had it in 1989, delicious! They never forget us and we always get a warm welcome ☺️ Well done guys, your dad must be so proud of your achievements! 💙

    Have been coming here since mid 1980's Always an outstanding meal. I can't praise Imran and his family enough. Food quality is by far the best, try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed! I suggest booking at the weekends though.
