Melissa Restaurant (Harrow) — Restaurant in London

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Melissa Restaurant Harrow, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. As soon as I walked in, I was immediately impressed by the cleanliness and attention to detail. The hygiene standards here are impeccable—tables are spotless, utensils are neatly arranged, and the entire place gives off a fresh, welcoming vibe. It's clear they take sanitation seriously, which is always reassuring.

Now, let's talk about the food. Every dish was a burst of flavor! From the appetizers to the main courses, each plate was prepared with care and packed with deliciousness. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the flavors were perfectly balanced. Whether you're a fan of spicy dishes or prefer something more savory, their menu has something for everyone, and each item I tried was a hit.

The portions? Absolutely generous! Unlike many places where you leave feeling half-full, here you definitely get your money's worth. Each dish was served in hearty portions, and it’s clear they don’t skimp on ingredients. You’ll likely leave with leftovers, but that’s not a bad thing when the food is this good!

Lastly, the staff deserve a special mention. From the moment we arrived, the team was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly especially Alissa is the best :) They made sure we were comfortable and checked in frequently to see if everything was to our satisfaction, all while maintaining a pleasant, unobtrusive presence. It's not often that you find a place where both the food and service are top-notch, but Melissa Restaurant delivers on both fronts.

If you're looking for a place with excellent hygiene, tasty food, big portions, and a friendly atmosphere, look no further than Melissa Restaurant. It’s easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time!...

Hands down the best Turkish food!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Many thanks and credit goes to Chef Mehti and his team! I love Turkish food and always on a hunt to find the one where I could say, Best one so far and at the moment that search has ended here!

Have tried Fora and Almas in St.Johns wood, Gökyüzü in Kentish town, Aysu in Harrow and would say this is the best far!

What’s makes it so good ? Taste 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 Price 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 value for money!! Service 🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️🎖️excellent Location 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️(walking distance from the station - met line) Portion/ Quantity- 👌👌👌👌👌

We did a walk-in and the staff was very courteous. Post the order was taken, we were served with complimentary basket of fresh bread ( hot), and accompaniment like 2 sauces, tzatziki. bowl of salad comes along with the main dish! The red spicy sauce was very tasty and edible. When I have eaten at other places it’s too hot 🥵 to even just taste it, let alone having it with bread.

We order 2 main dishes - chicken casserole/guvec and chicken sish ( large , comes with 8 peices). Both are served with mixed rice.

Total bill was 38 pounds! Totally worth it!

Guvec is a MUST TRY!!! Perfect blend of spiced, saucy, good amount of chicken! Very succulent.

Absolutely delicious, sumptuous, satisfying your taste buds and your tummy!!! Soulful food!!!

Thank you Team Melissa and chef Mehti!

I did pass my compliments to the chef Mehti and he was very cordial!! The gentlemen who served us was very attentive, prompt, and pleasant as well, missed getting his name.

Before booking the table for my son’s 4th birthday I had gone to the restaurant personally to advise that all the people coming are vegetarian and had asked if they cater for vegetarian? Staff had shown me the menu, with all the vegetarian dishes and had said there can change few things for children if there are fussy eaters. So it sounded all good so had gone ahead to book the table. On the day of his birthday when everyone arrived and was taking their seats I spoke to the staff to start ordering the food and reminded them of everyone being vegetarian. Staff said sorry we cannot accommodate has their use the same oil and surface has the meat and it’s not a normal norm for them to advice customers that their do this. I was so shocked 😮 with the response and I could hear the small kids crying in the background cos there were all so hungry. I asked why wasn’t I made aware of this on the day I booked the table? I also asked is it not UK standers to make customers aware of this? In reply I was told their don’t know this. I feel the owner needs to revisit the UK’s national food standards. If you are offering vegetarian options and using the same fat and surface has meat then you are not been honest with your customers. We had to leave and try and find last minute place to celebrate my son’s birthday. It was so disappointing and...
