What People Are Saying About Mehfil Indian Cuisine
Featured Review

In Short – About a dozen wooden tables covered in white tablecloths and topped with glass populate this restaurant's simply decorated dining room. During the day, workers from nearby office buildings choose from the day's featured offerings, which always include at least two meat, two vegetarian and two tandoori dishes. Inexpensive "lunch box" specials with one entree over rice provide quickie take out for those on the go. The restaurant's full menu is available each evening. – –

I hated it!
by sandinmycrack at Citysearch
What ever I ate there made me very sick. Besides the food coming back up, I also had to deal with it liquefying my intestinal contents. It was like a crime scene in my bathroom. The flatware had food on it, plates were not shiny and clean, the staff was just not attentive to getting me what I was asking for. Two hours later, I ejected the whole meal and never looked back. Don't want to try it again...no thanks.
- Pros: they had chairs
- Cons: cleanliness, service, food, grease, nausea

Great location near Passport Agency
by lemonlei at Citysearch
When I first walked by this restaurant, I immediately knew I wanted to eat here. The wonderful aroma and the atmosphere looked great and was clean. We arrived at around 1:30 p.m., the restaurant was about 75% full and we were seated promptly. The food was great. The samosas were typical with three different sauces for dipping. The mango lassi was refreshing. The butter naan was not your ordinary flat naan, this naan was fluffy and soft and my daughter loved it. The murag makhani (butter chicken) was delicious! I recently had the butter chicken at another restraunt in San Jose, however, this murag makhani from Mehfil tasted like the cook used quality ingredients that made it cut above the rest. The service was good. I asked the waiter if they had navaratan korma, he said its not on the menu, but he can have them prepare it for me. Well, I decided not to order it only because I knew my daughter and I could not finish it. The basmati rice was included in our order and it tasted and looked good. The food was delicious and affordable.
- Pros: Fast service

Good food and super fast service....
by psm419 at Citysearch
My husband and I had dinner tonight at Mehfil for the first time. At first the waiter was a little mad that we asked for a four setting table for two. But the service was super fast. we got our food fast and it was good. Saag paneer was really good, with right spiciness, and Malai Kofta were tasty as well. Fluffy naan and aromatic rice. Will go there again for sure.
- Pros: Fast service, and good food. good prices
- Cons: none

Terrible.
by bagawk at Citysearch
I gave this place 2 fair tries before making this review. I like Indian food and this place seemed great as it was right there next to my house. First time was Delivery. Too begin with they couldn't find my apartment, so i had to spend lots of time looking for the delivery guy while on the phone with the this place. When i finally obtained my food it was underwhelming. Recently I decided to give it another try late after work. I made sure it was open and went over there. I got there with about 30 min till closing. Upon coming in the door I was greeted with a nasty look and a "we are closed" from short, miserable man. I would understand if there was 5 minutes left or even 15, but THIRTY! That is just bad business. That was enough for me, I turned around and walked out. This is my honest experience, take it or leave it.
- Pros: convenient location
- Cons: everything other than the location

Just order on the phone
by omnigirl at Citysearch
Good food! Flavorful, fresh and not too greasy. They even made kashmiri naan at my request, although it wasn?t on the menu. I did take a cue from the previous reviews and ordered on the phone, rather than online. That seemed to help because delivery was fine. My food arrived hot, in about 30-40 minutes. No complaints here.
- Pros: fresh food, friendly service
