Welcome to Mela Lounge

“ This restaurant is also doing 50% off all food up to the end of tomorrow as part of its extension to #eotho offer. When you arrive, you go down the stairs and the restaurant is underground as such. The interior represents the majority of Indian restaurants with appropriate music, leather seats, white layed tables and lighting to match. Staff were all dressed smartly as you would expect. Staff greeted me immediately and were wearing PPE with hand sanitiser avaliable and a sign in book as opposed to the usual NHS Test and Trace barcode. Free Wi-Fi was available. I went for the following today; Starter - Mix Platter -- Chicken Tikka, Hariyali (Green) Chicken, Kebab and Tender Lamb Chops. A lovely mix of everything here (minus the seafood of course). The green chicken is a popular north Indian choice. It came with a sweet dipping sauce. All the meat on the plate was hot and tender and presentation wise it was appealing. I found no issues with the quality of the meat and enjoyed this very much. There was no spice at all to all the items on this dish though remember I really love spice. Main - North Indian Chilli Chicken - Chicken pieces cooked in 5 spices of sauce and flavoured with garlic, cayenne pepper paste and fresh green chillies. I do love my spice and this was recommended by the staff member. This was the perfect sauce. Hot enough for me to taste it but not enough to not enjoy it. A fair amount of meat is in the curry and you can taste the garlic in this one. A very smooth flavour to it that tastes great. A tandoori roti accompanies the above. This was nice and fluffy. This came to £12.90 after #eotho which was excellent value in that respect and can be compared similarly to some set menus but I did have a chefs speciality as opposed to the normal options on a traditional set menu. I was able to walk in luckily but the restaurant was fully booked after 19:00 so is a popular location. There is a similar location in Birmingham but they were only offering 25% off. Recommended! ”

“ Beautiful food! Me and my partner had a take away, both had curry rice and bread! And j enjoyed every part! Penny of food, I couldn’t finish my meal, would highly recommend going there! And will be having food from this place again ”

“ Don't live local to mela lounge but will definitely be going back. The staff were very welcoming. Food was out of this world meat was lovely and tender. The food was piping hot. Was constantly asked if wanted anything else especially drink. Toilets were very clean also. The atmosphere was very pleasant was able to enjoy our meal with no rowdiness from other customers. Would definitely recommend mela lounge ”

“ Great food and service, friendly staff who will prepare a dish even if it is not listed on their menu. The mixed starter was full of flavour and choice, while the tandoori mixed grill was really well cooked and again packed with flavour. The tandoori prawns were cooked to perfection and the portion size was incredible. ”
