Mehran Restaurant

Update: Over the past months I’ve became a regular.. Food availability is a matter of timing and chance. When it’s good, it’s very good. Service has also improved much. Upgrading to 4 of 5 stars. Update: Reducing score from 3 to 1. Arrived just before 1 PM. A party of 6. The buffet is empty of all the chicken/ meat dishes. See new photos attached. This has been happening recently. It is getting worse. Update: Reducing score from 5 to 3. I returned a number of times since leaving the review below. Service can be improved. It is lacking: one person do-it-all does not work. Long wait for food (buffet empties quickly), naan and drinks and anything to that effect requires a long wait. Bathrooms are clean but have fixtures which are broken and inoperable. It is disappointing to return again and again and notice more of the details which are not positive. Lunch buffet was excellent. Chicken tikka Masala and naan were the highlights. Service was good too. Recommended.

Very delicious chicken tikka. One of the best I’ve had in the Bay Area. The tamarind chutney is also prepared very well. The masala flavors in the chicken absorbed very well and the meat is juicy, tender and not overbearing with spice. The beef kabobs were just alright. But I think that’s my personal preference. Solid 4.5 experience.

The service: Ordered $70 worth of food from these people. When I arrived the waiter was engulfed in a chat with a customer waiting for his order. He didn't acknowledge me and when he did it was as if I were bothering him. He gave us someone else food. He later ran to my car after we had already opened and touched the food. He asked for it back for the other customer(very unsanitary) although it had been in our car and handled without gloves. The food: Ordered last night and there is over half left in the fridge. The Tomato(tikki) Masala was missing all other ingredients. Lamb briani rice- the lamb was tough to chew. This is by far my least favorite place to eat Indian food. I won't be back. The food and service could use a boost.

I have been going to Mehran for as long as i can remember, (maybe about since i was 8) and they had good food. HAD is the key word. They have been lacking alot lately. Went here today to get some food and the buffet could have been so much better. Had minimal choices, food was cold, and low and slow customer service. I dont recommend!! Momo and curry in brentwood is better!!
