When I called to complain, I was told it was normal for the dish to be buttery. Overall, I don't think I will be going back to this restaurant.

The staff member who greeted us already knew that we were there for collection. Timings given by the restaurant were spot-on for our e.t.a. on collection. We got the food home and I must say, it was amazing. Would highly recommend their Chicken Balti and Naan. Their Pilau rice was to die for. I would highly recommend this place as a must-do destination. 10/10

As a party of 16 we wanted to ensure everyone received their meals at the same time and we were a particular awkward group with several members having specific dietary requirements. The team there could not have been more helpful, the service, the organisation and indeed the quality of the food was outstanding. I would recommend Mela for both intimate dining and for larger groups celebrating that special event. Many thanks to Sham and his team.

We always choose this place when we want to have curry because the food is delicious and beautifully presented. The Peshwari Naan is a must-try and unlike anywhere else we've been, it's the best around! The staff were friendly and the food was excellent. What more could you ask for from a night out? Thank you, we will definitely be returning!
