The best Indian food , with the best prices! There lunch box special is only $7 everyday!! The people who work there are so nice too, when I first went there I wasn’t sure what to order ,I just knew I was in the mood for something good! And that’s what I got. Highly recommend this place. Best food, for the best price and the people who work there are without a doubt the nicest people you’ll ever meet.

I have been coming here for years since my days in the Financial District as an intern. Quality has gone out the window, but service has not changed one bit (hard to go from ‘bad’ to ‘worse’). I used to come here for the takeout lunch boxes all the time, but since the pandemic their food stopped tasting even decent. You pay $3 for a piece of garlic naan and it is stale, almost as if it were baked over the weekend and just reheated upon sale.

Food was good and some specialties. But watch out for the included gratuity already on the bill.

Visited the place in October 2019 during the business visit. The place is located in central place. I decided to sit outside as internal place is little dull. The best part was the food. The chef is really good and know how to mix proper Indian species. We order some paneer (cheese) and Dal (Lentils). The staff is nice and courteous. Worth visiting the place if you are looking for good Indian Vegetarian food.

I reluctantly ordered the chicken tika masala because I didn’t want to be cliché but I’m glad I did. It was very good. I also had the samosas and they were amazing. Highly recommended.

Mehfil catered lunch for our company and everything tasted amazing. They provided a container and cart to keep everything warm, as well as serving utensils. We requested one dish be made vegan and there were no issues! Thank you Mehfil!

There is nothing much to complain about here. Food is decent. I won’t call it great given it’s in Bay area and in here you will find absolutely amazing tasting Indian food. But overall food is good. I ordered Panner Makhani which was slightly on the tangy side. The ambience is average. Overall this place is between 4 and 4.5 star. I will probably try this place couple of more times this week. May give higher rating next time around if I find something that tastes amazing.

This is one of my go-to places for lunch during the work week. The food is consistently good! I have tried most of the lunch specials and liked all of them. The price is phenomenal. The staff are great. So glad to have this place within walking distance of work.
