Filini Bar Restaurant - Birmingham

They will not be protected the place that was so protected by their high-level staff. I visited felinis with a grad contempt as my brother had told me about a devastating evening he had spent there. we sat very fast, but from some reason our drink order was not accepted. Finally we ordered some drinks and our food at the same time. our Antepasto star was very nice. my main handle was with my main court. I ordered risotto, like my partner. when it arrived, my partner was well cooked and mine was very undercooked. undercooked risotto has a gritty texture that is, quite simple, inedible. like eating a sand sandwich.

Our open table reservation never made it to the restaurant hostesses made it quite uncomfortable and had me pull it up on their wifi. We were the second couple to enter the tiny place and put at the entry table so we could greet everyone as the door open. No privacy. Flies were all over us. Hostess tried to redeem herself with complimentary dessert at the end. We were already embarrassed and uncomfortable just wanted to go.

The restaurant is quite unpleasant and cold furnished. we were almost the only guests. I ordered a red wine and got a white wine. the steak should be “medium” but was very “through”. the apple was the caesar salad with acidic fish from the glass.

The staff were amazing. Very professional and attentive. The mood was lovely and the young lady who played the piano and sang was just brilliant

I have dined here previously but I was told the menu had been changed and I found the choice quite limited. The pumpkin soup was excellent. My friend and I had the sea bass which was served with a crust of cheese that did not complement the fish. The sauce was much too sweet (maybe honey) and I did not finish my meal. A generous amount of vegetables accompanied the meal and had I known I would not have ordered a side order of mixed vegetables (it would be helpful if the waiter pointed this out). The carrots were to hard to cut but the peas were nice. Although this venue is extremely convenient for the theatre I am unsure whether I would return.
