Absolutely loved this place! Curries are out of this world! Stopped in West Brom on business..came here twice during the week. Fresh, authentic tasting curries whilst watching footy...what could be better! Lamb Jalfrezi is to die for!
The Great Lion formerly Desi junction is fully refurbished place it looks amazing. Lots of different seating areas. TV screens all around, great place to watch foot ball or any other sport. Every thing was freshly cooked. Fish Pakora were amazingly delicious, service of food was great and staff were friendly, definitely will be visiting soon. Wide selection of Indian food. Dine in or order on line and collect.
Great refurb of the old desi junction. Service was very hit and miss but the great lion mix grill made up for this. The portion size was great and the naans were very tasty. The chicken curry however was not that great. 4 star is because how good the mix grill was. I would recommend this place for good beer and a mix grill but not the currys.
The Great Lion is finally open (formally the Desi Junction). Had a wonderful evening here. They have fully refurbished the inside and it looks amazing. So many different seating areas to choose from. I would say it is more of a restaurant and bar now, instead of a pub. I think there is seating for about 300 people to dine. There are loads of TV screens up, so will be great place to watch the football, cricket and other sports now in West Bromwich. There is also a new seating area out the back.
Ordered a few different items off the menu and everything was freshly cooked and tasted delicious. They have put a large windows in so you can see straight into the kitchen, which is a nice touch. The service of the food and drinks was great and all the staff are friendly. Will definitely be visiting here again soon!
Great pub,went on a match night staff coped brilliant, very efficient, food the best Indian I've ever had,period.
Food is fantastic and very friendly atmosphere. Been twice so far. Looking forward to the next time.
Just 1 small complaint, food is too good so i never know what to order
We had a couple.of starter dishes. Chilli paneer, chicken manchurian and fish pakora. All three were great especially the chicken manchurian. Good portions of food.
Tables need some upkeep. Our table needed a bit more of a clean.
Given that it was not busy at all, the service from the bar wasn't great. One colleague on the other side of the bar, not paying attention to who's waiting and another colleague on the phone to someone when there were 3 people waiting at the bar. I had to call one of the colleagues so that I could order some food.
A great family restaurant. The restaurant is brilliantly decorated and quite obviously has had good money on presenting itself.Delicious food and super friendly staff. Definitely will come again and recommend to family and friends.
Awesome food, bit short on staff when I visited but their effort will make it up for it
The food was extra ordinary. The staff service was also excellent. Came here for the first time and will come here gain and again. I recommend this place 10/10. 👌
The great lion (aka desi junction)

Food was delicious staff were lovely, great prices would definitely come back, the portions were massive, absolutely lovely
Food was so delicious and also staff service was really great.
Absolute quality. Claypot lamb superb. Loved the chicken momo. Chicken and spinach and fish pakora were great.
Pub/ Indian restaurant. Food was really tasty and mazing. It has a lovely ambient and classy feel that is very welcoming. There is a good range of beers and food menu and a fantastic venue for friends, family or a good get together. Food is reasonably priced. Staff are helpful and freindly.
I will definitely be visiting again.
Best Indian I’ve ever had. Loved everything about it, lambshops were 10/10

Went in as was early for an appointment just up the road had coke and spicy chicken wings. Not bad price at 7 quid. The wings were bang on and deffo filled a hole. Would deffo come again. Place would be great for football matches plenty of space and loads screens.
