    Excellent vibes and food...One of the rare places were quality and looks of food is combined with good and tradiotional taste( not huge innovations that makes food tastes awkward)...Service very good but it's a busy place..A bit on the higher end of price than expected

    The food and ambiance was amazing as always. The service was great but a little slow however this was acknowledged without us even mentioning it and the service charge was taken off the bill. We had a wonderful meal and a lovely time with my family.

    The service could have been better, staff seemed busy & we had to ask to have drinks topped up/the bill. My dessert, apple parfait, was frozen solid, when I asked about it I was told it was supposed to be, as it is vegan & would melt otherwise? They did ask if I wanted it changed, but honestly I felt like the explanation did not make sense. I literally couldn’t get a fork in it, it was so hard. The beetroot tart did not have much flavour, the sauce did not taste like anything. All in, I have given a good rating, for the cost I expected more.
    Orelle BirminghamResponded 3 days ago
    Dear Erica, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry if our service felt less attentive—we’ll take this on board. Regarding the apple parfait, parfait is traditionally a frozen dessert, and ours is served with fig sorbet, as listed on the menu. While it should be firm, it shouldn’t be too hard to enjoy, so we appreciate your comments. We’re also sorry the beetroot tart didn’t meet your expectations and will pass this to our kitchen team. We value your visit and hope to welcome you back for a better experience. Best regards, Orelle Management Team
