A group of 4 of us had a meal last Saturday night. Due to CV19 restrictions, the menu offered 4 entrees and 4 mains only, so we ordered one of each, except swapping out a chicken tajine with the special offer goat dish. The food was superb and the service great. Paired with a great wine (Ravensworth Sangiovese), a very enjoyable meal. The reason I gave it only 4 stars was that the value for money wasn’t there. The set price of $58pp for a 2 course meal is excessive, more so given that on a past visit we couldn’t finish the meals they were so generous. This time, all plates were scraped clean. Even so, we decided to forgo the dessert as paying another $20pp just seemed excessive.I appreciate we are living in difficult times and we all need to support local businesses, but that can’t be at the cost to customers who are also doing it tough.I can’t wait for Meeka to get back to normal and will be returning when they have done so.
Meeka consistently impresses and remains one of my top restaurants in Perth. The food speaks for itself, with each dish well thought out, perfectly executed, and beautifully presented. Their signature tajines, such as the tender and delicious chicken and flavorful lamb Tagine with pearl couscous, never disappoint. The wood fired lamb pide is fantastic (highly recommended), and the baharat fried cauliflower is a standout (the best I've had in Perth). With so many delicious options, dining with a group and sharing multiple mezze dishes is a great way to experience all the flavors. Save room for dessert, the tasting platter is a winner, or try the signature Turkish delight donuts. The ambience is great, the waitstaff are attentive, helpful, and professional, and the wine list is impressive. Meeka checks all the boxes for a fantastic dining experience.
I absolutely adored the 14-hour wood-fired cooked lamb and the incredible fried cauliflower appetizer. I would definitely return just for those dishes. The service was also top-notch.
What an amazing experience! The food, staff, and atmosphere were all exceptional. We will definitely be returning.
I would highly recommend Meeka I have eaten there a few times recently, and every time I have been very impressed with the service, the food, and the wine selection (along with the wine education I’ve received from their passionate and knowledgeable staff! <br/ <br/ The flavour combinations in the food are amazing so many complimentary flavours without the experience being overwhelming. The duck pastries are always a winner, and the Black Garlic Lamb Shoulder is incredible. I’m a sweet tooth, and the deserts are amazing!<br/ <br/ The staff are friendly, funny and attentive. <br/ <br/ Great experience. Highly recommended!<br/ <br/
