  We ordered take out from this restaurant for the first time today and have been completely blown away by the taste of all the items we got. My husband found the Tandoori chicken the best and juiciest he has had in a long time. The Amritsari kulcha was packed with a generous stuffing of cheese and potatoes and flavored with the most delectable spice mix. We plan on making this one of our regular haunts.

  We had a wonderful experience at Mehfil. The food was absolutely delicious, featuring sumptuous portions and a perfect blend of authentic Indian spices. A special thank you to MB, whose caring attitude and excellent service truly stood out. We will definitely be returning!

  I ordered the Butter Chicken, Lamb Karahi, Plain Naan, and Dal Makhni. The Butter Chicken was good. It had a pretty strong tomato base, more than I’m used to, but I still enjoyed it and finished the whole dish. Not the best I’ve had, but it was tasty. The Dal Makhni was my favorite. It had great flavor and tasted authentic. It was very creamy and had the right amount of ghee. The Plain Naan was also very good. It tasted fresh and you could tell it was baked to order. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. They gave us recommendations, checked in often, and made us feel comfortable. The place itself has a nice, and had a cozy feel. The Lamb Karahi was decent. I don’t like comparing, but compared to Karahi Boys, this one was just okay. It had very large pieces of green and red peppers, which didn’t really suit the dish, and the flavor wasn’t the kahari style I’m used to from other Indian or Pakistani restaurants. Still good, just not what I expected. Prices were reasonable and the total came out to about $65. Overall, I’d give the restaurant a 6 out of 10.

  We ordered through Uber Eats, and honestly, I’m not sure how this restaurant is still operating. The food was very disappointing, and I wouldn’t recommend it at all. I don’t plan to order from or visit this place again. The quality was far below what you’d expect for the price. The biryani tasted like it was just coated in chili powder, the vegetables were raw, and there was no real flavor. If you don’t know how to prepare the food properly, you shouldn’t be running a restaurant.

  We drove 30 minutes to dine here, but the experience was a total letdown from start to finish. It took 45 minutes just to have our order taken. When the food finally began to arrive 40 minutes after that, only 2 out of our party of 5 were served. The rest of the family had to wait another 40 minutes for their meals, and even then, the order was incomplete. We even waited an extra 20 minutes just for a single piece of bread. ​When we followed up on the missing items, the staff was dismissive. One staff member literally told us, "I’m not working in the kitchen, I’m just here to help." We eventually learned they share their kitchen with another business and were clearly prioritizing takeout orders over the guests sitting in the dining room. ​While the owner apologized repeatedly, apologies don't make up for a wasted evening and a $150 bill for a disjointed meal. A shared kitchen is not the excuse for poor service and its not a customer's problem either. They should clearly say that its gonna take long and then it depends on us if we want to wait or no. But the wait time in between the meals is not acceptable either. We felt completely disrespected as paying guests and have decided to never go back. Save your time and your money.
