So Sad!! Mela used to be my "go to" restaurant. Just taken delivery of what is supposed to be a madras & a jalfrezzi. Madras has visible uncooked spices. Jalfrezzi has large pieces of uncooked pepper & onion. Both very salty and really not very nice. The naan was average, nothing like it used to be. The rice was nice, I cooked it myself! WHAT HAPPENED MELA???

Waste of money, they put sugar in every dishes. I couldn't feel the real taste of the food. I can't believe sugar in coconut rice and chicken tikka komar.

As soon as you spot the excessive tomatoes in a dish you know you have a problem. We very rarely order Indian food for obvious reasons as I’m a chef. And I hate to be writing this review but I did call the manager and he really had no interest in fixing this. We paid almost £12 for this Prawn Balti dish. Come on Mela - do better please. It became a spot the prawn competition.

We came for an impromptu dinner on a weekday and was greeted by very friendly waiters. The food was very tasty and plentiful. We had veg platter starters, chicken 65, tandoori mixed grill, Chana, chicken curry and paratha. We probably over ordered but we still ate it all! We even got to speak to chef who was nice. Toilets were clean. Parking nearby so good location. Thanks very much !

Food is very tasty, I like the lay out of the menu. The best naan bread in Swindon. Service is friendly and discreet, the only thing that could do with a little work is the atmosphere. This can’t be helped if there are few tables but music etc could be a tad louder and more consistent. Over all nice experience.

Beautiful food. Walked in and got a table. Food was lovely. Portions bigger than I expected with 4 vegetable pakora and lots of chicken in my curry with a good sized naan. The service was good, they checked that everything was OK but didn't keep bugging me which was great.

Not an Indian restaurant, it’s a Bangladeshi restaurant. Had the worst ever Aloo paratha here. There was literally no aloo ( potatoes) in the Aloo paratha. We also ordered Paneer butter masala & Mushroom jalfrezi and the taste was below standard . Not sure if all the reviews are genuine. Only Tandoori roti was good .

Today I was taken here for lunch, by a very elderly couple. Two of us ordered fish and chips. One looked okay, but mine should never have left the kitchen. It was immediately obvious that there was almost no fish, as it was very, very thin. Grossly overcooked, when I gingerly cut into it, the rock-hard batter flew onto the table. I shovelled this back onto the plate, once I had rescued what I could. Under different circumstances, this plate would have been returned before even touching it. As their guest, I did not want to possibly embarrass them . Truly dreadful, chips overcooked to dark brown as well. Horrendous meal.

Really lovely bar and vibe but service is so slow. We were a group of 8 and by the time the last drunk came out people had finished their first. Don't get me wrong the drinks are lovely but service needs to be overhauled. Takes far too long.....
