Worst indian restaurant ever you can go. The owner is very rude. When i entered and talking to the server, owner came and told you cannot talk to server.

I have kids with me, he came and told that kids cannot make noise and eat here.Owner behavior is that kids cannot eat here. This behavior hurts a lot.

3rd incident is that kids stand up and he started and telling why kids stand thet are not suppose to stand.

Now come to bathroom, flush is not working and we told him and he rudely saying go somewhere else. When we are coming out his reply was why indian Come here to eat.

Now come to food quality, we ordered saag paneer and paneer tikka masala with spice level 8 out of 10. Food came out really bad without salt and pepper. Naan was burnt and when we complained his behavior is that this is kind of food we serve.

Pricing is bit higher and is compared to Michelin star rooh restaurant. Single paneer dish cost $25.

This guy being single indian restaurant in area is looting the money.

If there is -ve star we should hve given to it.

Its humble request to all Indians is to avoid this restaurant. You can better eat in...

A Delightful Oasis for Both You and Your Car

If you're looking for a superb place to relax and enjoy some delicious food while your electric car is charging in Truckee, look no further. This place offers the perfect respite with a welcoming atmosphere.

The highlight of our meal was the exceptional selection of dals. If you find yourself craving authentic, flavorful dals, this is the place to be. We savored both the Dal Makhani and Yellow Dal, each bursting with rich, comforting flavors that took us straight to the heart of Punjabi cuisine. Even our visiting parent loved the dishes, praising their authentic taste and quality.

Service here is impressively fast, adding to the overall pleasant dining experience. Our host and server, Deep, made us feel right at home with her warm smile and attentive service.

The restaurant is run by a lovely husband and wife duo from a town in Punjab where I spent a few years, adding a personal and nostalgic touch to the experience. Their passion for their heritage shines through in every dish they serve.

We ended our meal with freshly made gulab jamuns. Soft, syrupy, and...

GUIDE FOR THIS RESTAURANT We visited this place looking for some Indian food near Lake Tahoe, and stumbled upon this restaurant. Looking at the reviews left us a little confused on what we would get but have a try anyway. I have to say, this place has surpassed my expectations. The restaurant was clean and hygienic, the server was very welcoming too. Although the non-vegetarian “Chicken Tikka Masala” was quite bland with a decent texture and honestly disappointing, but the “Dal Tadka” made up for it. I have to say, this is the best daal I have had in all of the US, and I have traveled a fair bit. It was just perfect. As for the “Mattar Paneer” it was quite delicious as well and surpassed my expectations too. “Chole Bhature” was also quite good. The “samosa chaat” was also REALLY REALLY good. Overall, I would say when visiting this restaurant, you are gonna be quite pleasantly surprised by the vegetarian food, but haven’t tried enough non-vegetarian to give a review. The chicken was average.

Ratings: Dal Tadka - 9.9/10 Mattar Paneer - 9/10 Samosa Chaat - 9/10 Chole Bhature - 8.5/10 Chicken Tikka...

“My experience at Mehfil Indian Bistro in Truckee was beyond disappointing. The first red flag was the outrageous pricing. When I inquired about the cost, the staff arrogantly remarked, ‘We are expensive—you probably can’t afford us.’ Despite their condescending attitude, I chose to dine there, assuming that high prices would at least guarantee good quality food. Unfortunately, I was gravely mistaken. The food was utterly disappointing—bland, stale, and completely devoid of authentic flavor. It was, quite frankly, disgusting. The lack of taste and freshness made me question their kitchen hygiene and food safety practices. Given the poor quality and the unacceptable service, I strongly believe the California Food Inspection authorities should conduct a thorough investigation to assess whether this restaurant meets health and safety standards. No customer should have to pay premium prices for substandard food served with arrogance and disregard. I do not recommend this place to anyone who values quality, hygiene, or respect.”

It’s such a joy to find an exceptional meal while traveling in unfamiliar surrounds. A surprise to find really good Indian food at a car charging station. They offered wonderful shrimp curry and the kids just loved the paneer tikka masala. They were very accepting of the children being there. The service was excellent and altho the place is at a charging station, one can’t expect a gorgeous view out the window. But I’m really impressed with the food. Not being from California, I’m finding it easier to locate really good restaurants, especially Indian ones here than in Maryland, where I reside. Ricky was our server and he was kind and efficient. I’d return in back in the area.

The first thing someone notices on entering a restaurant is the VIBE that was not welcoming at all. The person didn’t seem to be paid well as he didn’t have even a little smile on the face all the time. We ordered some food items as there was no other Indian restaurant nearby . The portion was really small. Paneer tikka masala tasted good. Chicken biryani didn’t seem like the actual one didn’t like it at all. Actually there’s some kind of confusion about the appearance of the food according to the names .
