Marco Pierre White Steakhouse, Bar & Grill Birmingham

Good food and service. I had calamari for starters, which was really nice and perfectly cooked. For main I had chicken with potatoes, spinach and mushrooms- everything was nice, except from the chicken. I felt like it was slightly undercooked, it wasn't pink inside but had a strange texture in the middle. For dessert I had the apple crumble, this was honestly amazing!! Loved every bite and would come back just for that!The view from the restaurant is breathtaking, we were there during sunset , which made it even more magical!There was a live DJ by the bar that night and played some good tunes! The atmosphere was lovely and relaxed, with very professional yet friendly staff.

Came today 22/12/24 for a family Christmas meal, 8 of us dined at 4pm-6pm. The Restaurants decor is lovely but the whole experience left us very disappointed.The atmosphere was flat and for nearly an hour no background music until I asked why not?My roast chicken lunch was a small, dry, overcooked chicken leg. I would have expected at least chicken breast meat for this level of restaurant.Some of the ladies toilets were blocked and only a couple of them in use.I really expected more than what we got today. Very disappointed with the whole experience. I will be sending an email to the restaurant.

Like many people we visited to use a gift voucher, ours was for 2 courses and prosecco.Charging extra to sit near the window sets the scene for how the visit is going to go.Bit disappointed to be seated at a table with crumbs and salt on, hadn't been wiped properly since the last customer.The menu choices were quite limited but we expected that. The starters were of good quality and flavours. Included in the voucher is a small 6oz butchers steak with surcharges on Sirloin, Ribeye or Fillet. We both took the sirloin upgrade and the steak was cooked exceptionally well, although mine was on the fatty side.The chips provided were odd, several weren't really cooked inside and had the texture and coating of a frozen chip, surely a chef wouldn't put their name on a restaurant using cash and carry chips?Service was mostly good except a drinks order going missing for a while. The automatic tip added isn't just on the extras and drinks, but the value of the voucher too so is quite high. Overall the 'free/gifted' lunch cost an extra £50.Toilets are rough with broken taps and adverts on the walls like a motorway services. Hard to tell what level they're aiming at with the mixed levels of quality throughout.Overall a good experience but not the level I'd expect having dined at other chef branded venues. Without the view it's hard to see what stands out here.

I have eaten here a long time ago, and wasn't impressed, but that was a long time ago...Since then I've popped to the bar for drinks a few times, but never stayed too long as a little pricey.However, for views, terrace and something different as you bar hop, it's worth a visit.I'm planning to try the food again, so will update my reviews in time...

I think the atmosphere and the food are fantastic. Was a bit disappointed with the amount of time they took to bring out food, considering we pre ordered food. On top of that, they had to check everyone's orders over, although they had the orders printed out on everyone's seat. Other than a few hiccups in service of food, the service was great and caring. They showed a lot of attention to our dietary needs, which showed their care for their customers. Therefore, I am leaving a 5-star review despite a bit of dissapoint, because sometimes being patient brings out a better and more pleasant meal.
