Delicious authentic Indian food. It is always good whenever we go. Our favourites are the Biryani and the Achari Fish but everything is good.

We have been to Mehfil numerous times and we visited last night to celebrate a friends birthday and we had the worst service ever. Waited over 1 hour for starters and 2 hours for mains. Servers are rude and when we asked why the food is taking so long, we will told that there is a function downstairs! Management need to sort this out as it’s unacceptable service. Won’t visit again

We have had a few parties in this restaurant before and have enjoyed hence always went back and decided to have a triple celebration in their banquet hall. From day one when we started making arrangements we were dealt with a male staff Alene who couldn’t be any less helpful as anything we asked for was turned down and would not meet half way to finish the deal. Anyway we agreed to their charges and decided to try food for which we had to pay in full not even a small discount out of which we complained about the chicken tikka as had a foul taste, they didn’t even offer to replace but then we asked to make sure chicken tikka would be breast pieces and was assured on 2 occasions but on the day of celebration they still served cheap pieces of chicken thigh for Chicken Tikka. On the day all went ok apart from chicken tikka starter and not the same experience with food. At the end when we settled the bill we were owed a refund from deposit we paid and was told it would be refunded at the earliest. Also the person dealing with us said he would pack us the left over from buffet if we filled in a positive feedback, what a deal!! Then we started chasing up the refund as wasn’t processed as promised. We kept calling and were given excuses, will take one week, will take upto two weeks, has been processed but wasn’t , then the person who processes the refund is on leave, and finally when spoken with the refund lady Reshmi was told don’t worry you will get your refund but we only process in bulks hence been delaying! What a lot of nonsense it took seconds for them to take money in advance from us but when it came to giving our money back so many lies, 2 weeks delay and numerous phone calls with frustration. So much for giving repeat business, never again.

Been meaning to come here for a while as my cousin has used this place for a few years. He did say it was a lot better but it has gone a little downhill.. the food was ok, with usual Punjabi cuisine.. they had a lot of fruit flies all over the place unfortunately and we had to move table but it still didn’t clear the issue. I do t know if this has something to do with them having the A/C on but leaving the windows to the rear of the place open.. I just don’t know. Food decent enough for a Punjabi place n portions were ok.. average and underwhelming.. hopefully they improve !

I had fond memories of dining here with my mum. So for her birthday we went here. They have a limited menu (they blamed COVID). So that was a shame. We had chilli paneer and onion bhaji to start with but ok. Chilli chicken was disappointing as was the chana masala. Cocktails tasted more like mocktails. Shame as this place used to be great.

It’s Diwali evening .. we placed an order at 6.30pm to be delivered to our address which is about 8 minutes away from the restaurant for 8pm. We purposely called so early as we felt the restaurant would be very busy with orders due to lockdown..I had to constantly repeat my address and confirm my order .. it’s now 8.15pm .. no sign of the delivery.. I call again and was told there’s a delay .. I asked why no one called me to let me know .. he answered “all the orders are delayed”.. what kind of an answer is that?...was told it will be 15 mins, then 15-20 mins.. then 30 minutes....I’m sure it had not even been made at that time.. I complained to the manager and said it was unacceptable... he did offer to add a complimentary dish .. but by now our mood was one of anger.. and we were all so hungry .....but were not looking forward to the meal now as the moment had passed..the food finally arrives 40 minutes after the requested time.and over two hours from time of ordering.. it was a disgrace.. the meat was tough, the meat was watery... what a complete and utter let down... the food was really sub standard .. I’ve eaten in the restaurant many times before and have always given glowing feedback ... but this has now really put me off and would not recommend it to anyone ... if you can’t deliver on your service you shouldn’t be running a business...cheers for ruining our Diwali night.

We normally visit Mehfil restaurant quite often, however on this occasion we wasn’t impressed. Firstly there were very few options on the menu only 3 veg and 3 non veg dishes to chose from for starters. Also noticed how all the Ordered the chicken tikka which only had 5 small pieces, for £9.00 which seems very overpriced. When bringing this to the waiters attention he gave a blunt reply saying ‘that’s the portion’.The rest of the food was nice however again all the prices were increased. Overall won’t be coming back for a long time. Wouldn’t recommend.

Although the food is very good (I must flag the head chef, Bridge, for his fantastic dishes), the customer service is the worst I've experienced. We used them for our catering services and the business manager was awful. Lack of communication from him, provide false promises and ultimately ruined part of our celebrations. It's a shame because as mentioned the food is of high standard, but I couldn't recommend this to a friend purely due to the poor management of this establishment.

We held a Birthday party in the banqueting hall downstairs.We agreed a menu beforehand and most was delivered but the three dishes did not live up to expectations. One was too salty, another was meant t oi be meat on the bone but on the day was boneless meat and the aloo tikki lacked any sauce so guests complained if it being too dry. We brought over own decorations to help create atmosphere after being offered a flowery backdrop for £250.The staff were generally helpful but did forget to slice cake and had to be reminded. The in-house Dj was excellent. There was no way to reserve parking for a disabled guest so some improvement needed there. Price per head is reasonable just communication from management needs improving. We emailed positive feedback with areas for improvement which was never acknowledged. In future I would book a party where I got better communication and mistakes were acknowledged.

Americans flying into Heathrow and unaccustomed to Indian food are in for a treat. Not too far from the terminals is Southall and Mehfil is the best affordable India restaurant I've tried in London (and possibly the best outright). Surroundings are unpromising - an Asian wedding venue hotel so avoid the car park out back - but the fantastic smell from the busy kitchen tells you instantly that this is a cut above the rest.

Celkovo veľmi obľúbená reštaurácia v okolí, veľa miestnych tam chodí aj počas obedu, aj večer. Ja som tam len raňajkoval, celkovo asi 15x. Blbé bolo, že tie raňajky boli zakaždým rovnaké, vždy na výber z troch možností: Indické, anglické, alebo vajcia. 3-4 dni po sebe toto striedať je super, no 2 týždne mi už bolo dlho, striedal som teda aspoň vajcia na rôzne spôsoby. Bol k dispozícii aj maličký "švédsky stôl", ale to len ako bonus s jogurtom, sušienkami, čajom a kávou. Ešte mali celkom dobré pivo, to sme skúsili raz večer, ale lepšie bolo ísť niekam do mesta niečo zohnať.

On 31st December 2018 i decided to have a party with my family and friends. It was £36 per person which was very steep for what you got. The room was medium sized and wasnt anything amazing. The DJ wasn't the best either, he had all this equipment but in the end was just using Spotify, he didn't mix any songs and only picked Indian songs. He also played them at full blast whilst we were eating which wasn't ideal. During our meal we realised that 3 of the lights above our heads were leaking water which drenched the dance floor and some areas near the tables, this made it nearly impossible for everyone to dance on the dance floor. The room did have a bar but it was incredibly small. The food was okay but there was nothing special, just some chicken and fish.

I recently had my engagement party at Mehfil in October 2018 and I booked this through the woman that works at Mehfil called Rashmi. During that night we had poor service from Mehfil. They did not bring the food out on time and when they did they were only serving my guests a small portion. Some of my guests were vegetarian and were sitting with hardly anything to eat. In order to compensate for the lack of service Rashmi provided 4 vouchers for a 3 course meal. Yesterday I went to Mehfil to use the vouchers and we were told we couldn't select what we wanted from the menu, we had to select from a set menu. By this point I was extremely frustrated as what was agreed was not being delivered. The waiter could not speak English and did not even ask us what drinks we wanted. He then had the audacity to say we were taking too much of his time up. In my opinion if they are not agreeing to what was said i deserve an explanation.

The cocktails are wonderful. I had a pina colada followed by a second as it really was scrumptious. I’ve had lots in my time and the one here is amongst some of the tastiest I’ve had. The restaurant is likely a tad more expensive than others but it’s definitely worth it for the food and the portion you get. I was stuffed! Only downfall is parking.

Mehfil feels more like a dining hall than an intimate restaurant, but when we visited on a Saturday evening it was full of large groups, so there was a good atmosphere. We got off to a bad start with a mis-placed reservation, but fortunately there was enough space available to give us a table for two. I started with lamb chops, which were well-cooked and delicious, with beautiful spicing; shared mains of fish and prawns were similarly good (maybe both fish and prawns were a little over-cooked) and I was impressed by the depth of flavour - better than the usual Indian restaurant.

The restaurant is warm and inviting. The food was excellent especially the Lamb Chops and the Kesari King Prawns in the starter section. The Amritsari Machli (fish) was a little dry but tasty. In the mains section the Kashmiri Roganjosh and the Garlic Prawn Masala was equally delicious. On a Saturday night the restaurant was very busy but the service was excellent once we were ready to eat. It a shame the bar area does not have any stools for sitting if you are early and waiting for the remainder of your party to join you. However you can take your drinks into the small reception area, providing there are not too many of you. Guests staying in the hotel above, who just wanted a drink, would have to take their drinks into the reception area if the restaurant was busy. Delicious gulab Jamuns nicely rounded off the meal. A little expensive but would come again.

We have been dining at Mehfil for a few years and have found that they never fail to please! The food and service is amazing! (even during busy periods staff are very attentive and you never have to wait too long for your order) . If you are after PROPER authentic indian cuisine look no further ! Even though this place is an hours drive away from our home we don't mind travelling.....its worth it! All the staff are amazing but a special mention to the chef Brij Negi and restaurant manager Sarbjit Singh for making sure we are always looked after. Earlier in the year we had a family function which was held in the the banquet hall which is on the lower ground floor (you have can have parties for upto 170 people!) and Rashmi who is in charge of events was very helpful and made sure everything went to plan and even helped arrange the decor and music !!!

Brought a friend here to lunch straight off an overnight flight from Delhi (it's only a few miles from Heathrow and has a large off-street car park). He's vegetarian and did not want to do English food immediately while jet-lagged. The food was just what he needed ("just like home - not 'English Indian'") and excellent. They have both veg and non veg foods, and my wife and I are not vegetarian, but the veg choice was so good we all ate from that part of the menu, AND they have a pinotage from one of our favourite vineyards, Kleine Zalze in Stellenbosch. Nobody minded that we arrived as they opened for lunch and, after eating, stayed and talked for three hours until they closed again (and our friend had to go to a business meeting - but well fortified with excellent food). We'll certainly be back.

Very nice and open restaurant a shame the lighting is s bit too bright.Ordered a mixture of main courses, all of which were good, the vegetarian dishes stood out the most as all too often they are neglected.The Punjabi lamb on the bone was very authentic with just the right amount of spice and sauce.Our waiter Frank from Goa was excellent as were the other staff.

We gave our folks a surprise 50th wedding anniversary and we booked out the banqueting facilities downstairs. The whole experience was one of professionalism and friendliness from start to finish. The way customer service should be! A huge thank you to Rashmi and her team in helping to make this a special night for our folks. Everyone commented on how good the food was and was thoroughly enjoyed by allThe booking experience was also very easy. I coordinated everything over the phone and just simply needed to turn up on the night. Will definitely be recommending and reusing Mehfil services for future needs.Keep up the great work team...

We have been to the banqueting hall several times for wedding. always hit and miss as we are not fans of buffet food. although the restaurant is amazing food. went there with my entire family of 15 for my husband bday. The table they gave us was nice. we really like the food here and the portions are great. The starter Amritsari fish, the Lamb mains and the methi chicken are favourite dishes. the only negative please bring out naan and roti when hot, as by the time some dishes arrived they were warmish, not hot. apart from that we be back again. waiters please a little bit more attention when large parties. we felt slightly forgotten in between meals. thanks meena

Given that Southall has a plethora of Indian eateries it was somewhat surprising that Mehfil was a pleasure to dine at. I would recommend that you book if you're going on the weekend and go early to get guest parking. On the whole the food was impressive and good service.

We arrived on the Friday evening and checked in after a two day journey on the road. We were tired so decided to eat in the restaurant. We were very well looked after by the owner and his team. We were helped with our choices from the menu plus some speciality dishes. We were a table of four and we had a truly delicious Indian banquet. Definitely recommend

Lucky enough to be working an extra day in Southall. I went with a recommendation last week and it was awful. Mehfil was another recommendation so thought I would give it a go.Ordered online for a collection. The order had been lost so when I arrived it was not ready. Not a problem as the staff were very friendly and polite and I had somewhere to sit and wait.Because I only ordered the mixed grill and naan, the order was fairly quick anyway so not an issue. It did give me a chance, however, to soak in the atmosphere of the restaurant. It's really nice, somewhere you would dress up for. The tables not too close to each other allowing you to chat without being overheard. It looked elegant but not so much it was over the top. A perfect place for a family get together.I was advised that the portion of the mixed grill was large so that was all I needed. I heeded the warning and I am glad I did. It was huge!The aroma was wonderful. A real tandoori smell was present. They have a very effective way of sealing the containers which I have never seen before. By heat sealing the containers, it prevents any contents from spilling.The mixed grill was a step up from others I have experienced. Most mixed grills will come with chicken tikka, tandoori chicken, seekh kebab, a prawn if you are lucky and that's about it.This one was on another level described as "A medley of Chicken Tikka, Malai Kebab, Fish Amritsari, Seekh Kebab and Lamb Chops." All tasted fresh and each with their own unique flavour. The naan was nice and soft which accompanied it perfectly. There was a lot there but it was so good I managed to finish it. I was a very full, very happy boy.

Visited this restaurant on Sunday as we had our young nephew from Belgium staying with us for a week. He had never tried Indian food before, and this place was recommended to us by a friend. We were not disappointed! The food was great! The waiters explained the dishes, told us to take time and order mains later on. We had the mixed meat starter, which really was huge and filling. For mains we ordered a couple of curries, rice and a few naan breads. All good choices, and we left feeling pretty full and satisfied! The staff were great; very friendly and welcoming, and they took time to chat and laugh with us. We all really enjoyed it. And yes, we'll go back some time!

We attended our niece engagement party on 29th July at Mehfil's banquet hall. We were personally involved in arranging this party . Rashmi the event manager was dealing with us and had assured that we will receive best service & food would be of high standard.They were supposed to offer mocktails to guests as they arrive but that didn't happen. Whatever Canapés were served they were cold and staff had no idea how to serve. Most of the guests didn't even realise there were mocktails and canapés The food was served cold. Chicken & lamb were not cooked properly. They were very short of staff.On our table of ten main dishes chicken, lamb & kofta had only 6 pieces, to be served between 10 people. Rice and nan came so late and to refill the rice they just brought rice in big plastic containers on the table and started filling them up like it was a Langar in temple or Gurdwara.Gajar halva was cold and ice cream was a joke. In some bowls it was quarter scoop of ice cream. How embarrassing!When we went for food tasting we were so impressed with Rashmi and the way we were looked after, we were planning to book another event but after this we will not recommend this to anybody and shall be taking our business elsewhere. I have written all this to Rashmi and so has bride. Our letters are not even acknowledged.We are so disappointed by all this. It should have been a happy memorable event for our niece instead it turned out to be an embarrassing event.

I celebrated my engagement ceremony at Mehfil's banquet hall last weekend. We were a group of approx 120 people and the food and service was absolutely below standards. We had booked our party based on another's recommendation and my family had already attended this establishment before. However, at my event, Mehfil served uncooked chicken and lamb to my party which I cannot even get my head around. This could have caused my guests serious harm. I have recieved complaints from nearly all my guests that the meat was uncooked and the rest of the food was either cold or very slightly warm. There was inadequate staff for a party of this size and food was coming at different times. For example, if the main course had arrived at our table it arrived without rice/ breads. Our chicken in the starters was served cold and so was the (kajar da halwa) dessert which is supposed to be served warm. The waiter would disappear and come back 10mins later which by then the main's were cold. WE as the hosts and event organizers received no mocktails or canapes and there was no effort on Mehfil's part to ensure us or our guests were looked after. I am extremely disappointed by the management of this venue also. In all my conversations with the manager I was exceptionally disheartened by the things they would say and I would never attend this restaurant again and nor would I recommend it to anyone.

Nous avons passé 2 jours à Mehfil hôtel et ce fut un réel plaisir. Le restaurant est une excellente table ou la finesse des mets et les gouts sont un festival pour le palais. Le personnel est à l'écoute, le service est formidable. Les chambres sont calmes, très bien équipées et ou il fait bon rester. bravo à toute l'équipe pour se merveilleux moment. Michel et Bastien.

I have come to this restaurant overs the last few years and I cannot fault if in anyway. From food to service, it's incredible. Today we were blown away from the chilli paneer, bindi, Tarka Dahl, chilli naan, rice and lovely mango lassis. We got the pleasure to meet the lovely chef Bridge and are just so happy with the amazing faultless service and food. Please go here to eat Indian food if your in or around Southall. Thank you! We will be back.

We visited Mehfil last night with two young Indian guests. We originally intended to go to Southall High Street as we have some favourite edgy curry places we love to visit. But this time I thought we'd try somewhere new and as always I relied on TripAdvisor to guide us. Although I'm born and brought up in west London, I have never been to Norwood Green. It's a very green leafy suburb and made even nicer by Mehfil Indian Restaurant. It was easy to park nearby; the staff were delightful and the food top notch. We all arrived hungry and I thought we would be up for starters and mains. However our charming and knowledgable waiter thankfully suggested we order starters first and then see if we needed main courses. We ordered the popadoms; onion bhajis and the non vegetarian mixed grilled starter for sharing. Washed down with cold Fullers London Pride. We really enjoyed the sharing dish. Huge quantities of tandoori Chicken, lamb chops, curried fish and spicy lamb kebabs. We couldn't even contemplate main courses on top of those starters. Although the onion bhajis were good they weren't amazing. Possibly a bit stodgy but that's possibly a matter of personal preference. Everything else was perfect. This is a non pretentious local Indian restaurant and a real gem. I have already recommended to two lots of friends and am delighted to be able confidently recommend in TripAdvisor. You won't be disappointed as long as you realise this is not a new gen fancy Indian restaurant. It is however the real deal - a local authentic and very well run Indian restaurant. Lastly in terms of value for money - it couldn't have been better - our total bill for 4 was £36!

The restaurant offers the authentic Indian cuisine with great ambiance and price. We went for the dinner and was greeted by very friendly staff. They helped us by explaining the dishes and choose our dinner. The quality of food is flawless and the restaurant environment is very welcoming, Very helpful and always cheerful staff with neat and professional presentation. I love all about this restaurant. We would go back again and very highly recommended!!

My first real taste of Indian food and it was great. The waiter help us choose and steered us away from the real spicy dishes. We ordered one dish at a time an shared each choice. We were not rushed and could savour the moment. Two starters and one main and we had enough. A memorable meal.

This is a very nice restaurant - it's quite large but it was quiet on the Sunday evening that I was there. I had the lamb ribs entree which was delicious though the ribs were a bit larger than you would see in Australia (it was NZ lamb) and a bit tougher as well. However it is almost a main course in itself. I had the Malai Kofta as a main and it was superb. I like spicy food but neither course was particularly spicy and the flavour was really very good.Mehfil is not a "cheap eats" Indian diner - their most expensive banquet menu is £50pp but I just ordered two dishes from the menu which has an ample selection of vegetarian, fish and meat courses.The staff were friendly and efficient - and not 'in your face". My waiter had spent time in Australia on a farm in Victoria so we chatted a little about that. He had worked for P&O for a time and had visited various Aussie ports. A worldly fellow and charming with it.I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Superb food and fabulous service from Frank our very friendly and attentive waiter. Vegetarian platter was incredible. Large portion and every element was delicious. I had the Malai Kofta for my main which I'd never had before - so yum. Wish this restaurant was in my doorstep. Will definitely come back again

Gran cena para 5 anoche. Estaba un poco molesto por su política de cobro (no solo por tomar detalles) 50 para reservas de grupos, pero el miembro del personal fue muy educado al respecto y resultó que la calidad de la comida valió la pena.El servicio estaba bien, pero la comida es lo más destacado. Todo estuvo delicioso. Este lugar bien puede ser mi nuevo "Dishoom" local ahora.Se olvidaron de quitarse los 50 que ya había pagado al final de la noche, pero pronto lo arreglaron cuando se lo dije.Traeré a mi familia la próxima vez.

I took a team from work there for a Christmas meal and it was an excellent meal. The service was friendly and attentive, I felt as though we had our own private waiter making sure everything ran smoothly. Food delivery was well paced, we were offered the chance for a bit of a break between starters and mains. At the end of the meal and indeed afterwards everyone commented that they had really enjoyed the food with several saying it was the best of it’s kind they had ever tasted. Some interesting dishes making it different from your typical High Street “Indian”

We chanced by Dawat. As many places were shut... What a great choice for breakfast. The Halwa anr channay with pooris was outstanding. The different parathas were very tasty too.. The staff were very attentive.. Not sure what the other reviewers saw but for us folk from up north this is a place we will be coming back. Next time we will be back...

The food was delicious and all of the curries we had was not sitting in oil like you get in some british indian restaurants. The chef's made sure their base curry was cooked to above average perfection which then gave a flavoursome dish.Special thanks to Head Waiter Franco and the Manager Anil who catered to every request and needs for me and my family. The waiting staff were all so polite, friendly and with a sense of humour these qualities are hide to find in a some busy restaurant.Over all experience was brilliant. Would definitely recommend to first timers.
