Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Food is absolutely top notch..service needs more attention . We set off looking for dinner snd we stumbled upon this fairly innocuous looking eatery. We were hungry do ordered from the very familiar middle eastern menu..the food was out of this world taste succulent lamb and chicken kofta served with bulgar and the other with rice and vermicelli. Our side of chips moutable which was the equivalent of baba ganoush was exquisite! The waitresses were extremely polite but just really lacked in attention, they spoke very little English which is acceptable but my husband spilt his tea whilst trying to cool it in another cup and the waitress could see the spill but didn't come to clean it until I instructed her..then didn't even have the courtesy to give him another drink! The puddle on the floor near his feet was just left. Its a real real shame as the food and atmosphere is fantastic!

I came here with my husband last week and I loved it. The food was really tasty, really well served and really cheap. It was a bit cold inside and we did not chat with the waitresses but I just wanted to try the pizza honestly. I was expecting more Italian dishes and less eastern country ones.

Amazing pizza here, fresh, tasty and very quickly cooked too. I went here as I was staying on business.
I was served by a very polite, professional young lady (sorry I didn’t get her name but she wore glasses if that helps) who was clearly running the restaurant very efficiently.
I noticed she was very helpful to me and several other customers too, and have to commend her on her professional manner, and how she conducted herself in dealing with so many different requests.
I had no cash but offered to pay her a tip on card and she just said ‘don’t worry about it’ which I thought was very gracious indeed.
I will be returning to La Vera at my next opportunity and also recommend it to colleagues.

Was exploring this area as originally planned to go to Al Arabi. However, my friend and I noticed La Vera as we walked past. It looked very busy and had plenty to offer on the menu.
Al Arabi was essentially empty and only had 4 items on the menu with no menu board above the tills. The cashier looked uninterested and didn't utter a single word.
My friend and I decided to go to La Vera instead. We were pleasantly surprised as there was lots to choose from on the menu. We chose some grilled meat dishes. They tasted very fresh. Didn't suffer any ill effects after and as the food was clean and fresh, didn't feel bloated either.
Had a meal deal for less than a tenner! Can't go wrong, will definitely be back. Only criticism would be that the tables and floor could have been cleaned.

Great place to meet and eat with friends. Reasonably priced and in a reasonable located place in the Birmingham City Centre. Pizzas look delicious and freshly made on order but the Arabic main courses were the ones that took my interest. Fresh juices are made on order and certainly refreshing. Staff polite and friendly.

I have been coming here for over a year now! Please don't be put off by the reviews of disgruntled people.
They do have covid guidelines in place, they all wear masks and all tables are adequately spaced.
I always have a vegan fungi, with red onions and sweetcorn, and the chips which are to die for.
Highly recommend going here for some truly delicious food!
Staff are also amazing.

This is the second time I came to la vera and the pizza is great! You don't really see nice light pizzas anymore. The pizza itself was huge and loved the peri chips . The waitress was very friendly and talked me through the menu. And the food came quick. Its a good halal place to eat I the middle of city centre. They have outdoor seating as well as indoors so it is very nice.

What an absolute shame! I have loved this restaurant for so many years. I lived in Italy for 10 years and when I am back in Birmingham i always come to la Vera to just experience what I miss! Pizza!. So decided to come back after years with my mom for my birthday, my pizza was ok I ate it all as i waited all day and saved my appetite but my mom's was dry and very bland. What was worse than the pizza was the waitor who we expressed this disappointment too, he was so rude and kind of laughed when we said there was hardly any cheese it was embarrassing. He didn't offer a refund or at least a drink on the house. Disgusting service and so sad as I loved it here but I will never come again not even with my friends. It's a disgrace to call yourself la Vera and sell Italian pizza's but not only give a pizza like that but respond in the way he did. From Somone who comes from hospitality and has worked in various different situations like this myself I can tell you now maybe some training is more needed. It's such a let down and completely makes sense why most of the people was opting for the simple dishes ( chicken, rice and chips ). Too the guy who was so rude thanks for ruining my time with my mom and my birthday fatto bene, sei così bravo nel tuo lavoro!!

Appalling service, with no COVID regulations in place. I’ve been LA Vera many times, it’s always just about ok, cheap mad cheerful, but this time the food was so poor and service was a joke, with no COVID regulations in place.

Cheap and cheerful. For less than 10 you can have a drink, salad and a fantastic pizza.
Never fail.
Fantastic place for a quick meal.
