The biryani was delicious! The other dishes were great too. Sad they are not doing lunch buffet anymore. Service was good and place was clean albeit dated.

Absolutely love the food here! I haven't been here since 2021 and I decided to give it another try. I got the tomato soup for an appetizer and Baingan Bharta (eggplant, tomatoes, and herbs) as my entree. The flavors were immaculate! I wish they had some more gluten free options for appetizers, however. As far as the ambiance goes, it felt very warm and welcoming, which is always a plus. The service was great as well, it didn't take long for them to come out with our dishes and the server was able to tell me more about their meals. The restaurant also seemed relatively clean.

Silver Coin has been around forever. My review is long overdue. This is a neighborhood place ~ Hoover's jazz bands used to play here occasionally. They also used to have a fabulous lunch buffet ~ a pre-COVID delight that is now gone. So why give this place a try now? Wonderful Indian food. The staff likely knows way more about Indian food than you do, so if you're uncertain, ask for (and follow) their recommendations. We went with Chicken Tikka and Chicken Curry with Moderate Spices (You can go Mild, Moderate, or Spicy) and naan. So so so good! Food is served promptly and is quite enough to share. The rice is fragrant and the perfect complement to the spicier dishes. Yum. Yum. Yum! Decor is a little dated, but not enough to detract from your dining.

Update: 5 * You deserve it and Thank you for the wonderful meal!! I have never been disappointed even after all these years!! This is an accomplishment most places can only aspire too. I tried something different this time for my app : cutlet chaat ( fried vegetable patty with chickpeas and yogurt sauce) so good! It came out piping hot and with crunchy edges . My husband liked it too :) My son tried something new also for an entree Egg Burji ( lol he doesn't even eat eggs at home but he did this) My husband and I got the Special Tandoori platter (It had small pieces of salmon, mint chicken, tandoori chicken, and lamb chops) Of course I had to get the Kabuli naan ( If I had to eat just one food the rest of my life it's this naan fresh and hot) This place is worth the wait! I love the deco ! I loved the tablecloth! This place is the ONLY place to get Indian food I'm not joking! I'm getting hungry again writing this review..

Great service and awesome Food!! Definitely recommend when in Birmingham!!! Nice fresh and tasty food

We love silver coin! I'm married into an Indian family who also love it so I can truly say it is a crowd pleaser and very authentic Indian food! We always get the palak paneer, chicken tikka masala, and turka dal - to me this is the best combo! We order it medium so that it's never too spicy for anybody but always has enough flavor. I would suggest ordering at LEAST two items when you go because it's all about the combination of flavors and textures. I love to eat it with tandori roti instead of naan for a lighter bread option.

I had heard that Silver Coin is many times very busy for dinner. Decided to go for lunch and it was surprisingly not at all busy; it may have been considered early for their lunch crowd, as a few more people came in towards the end of our meal, and there were some pick-up orders, too. I ordered the Chicken Rashmi Kebab. Served not too differently than fajitas, it came sizzling hot and smelled fantastic. The chicken was not spicy (didn't expect it to be) and the onions were perfectly cooked. Be sure to squeeze the lemon over it for a little brightness to the dish. My companions do have food sensitivities, and the staff was knowledgeable and very conscientious about getting their dishes correct. Next time I go, I am eyeballing the chana masala or the chicken tikka tandoori

This is the best Indian food in the area. It's fantastic!!! They really pay attention to what each customer wants for their spice level and offer suggestions. It's also a great place to take someone who has never had Indian food before, since the staff is so knowledgeable and friendly.

Wow ! I can't believe this place has been here so long and I just now tried it , I feel terrible because I've missed out for so long . Never really tried Indian food until now , I've never been to India but I'd bet my life that this is authentic, first off the service was great , I was greeted by a lovely lady and was promptly served a drink as I looked over the menu, I asked her to recommend and appetizer that wasn't chicken because I knew I wanted a chicken dish , she guided me to Onion Methi Spinach Pakora And it was addicting very crunchy with loads of flavor I added the red and green sauce I liked the red one best , shortly thereafter my meal came in decorative serving dishes , I was told by a friend to order the butter chicken if I ventured into an Indian restaurant, and that's what I ordered ( it's not on the menu) but first the bread is delicious in-house made for sure , the rice was cooked perfectly and I'm not sure what seasoning is used but it was very good and fluffy . The butter chicken was unique in that ever bite seemed to get better than the last , I'm ashamed to say this but two people would have been satisfied , I ate almost all of it , the sauce was the star of the show it really was delicious , not only was the food great the service and decor was done very well . Please try this and let me know what you think . I will return here , oh I ordered mine hot and it's really not that spicy to me .
