I went to this place as a group. I wouldn't say what I had was proper Indian food.We ordered Tandoori BBQ which was good.But other dishes like Butter chicken, the quantities were really small and the sauce that is supposed to be red turned out to be very light red as if it was uncooked tomatoes. Also, you couldn't feel the flavor.Chicken Tikka Masala is supposed to be little bit spicy, but to my surprise it had coconut flavour.As for the biryani, we order Veg Biryani and Prawns Biryani. Didn't taste like Biryani but more like rice with spices. Prawns we had to look for it as it was very small.Anyone who tasted proper Indian food, would know what I'm talking about.

Quiet but homely. By far the best Bhuna I have had in a long time outcompeting some well known and more expensive

Came here recently with a friend for a bite to eat after the football. Lovely small restaurant that was sadly very quiet (we were about the only ones there) though I've no idea why - this was the best Indian meal I've had in ages! As you'd expect with it being so quiet, service was quick and attentive. Decent portion sizes and my naga spiced sag chicken was beautifully flavoured without being overpowered by the chilis. Decent nan bread and rice too, and all very reasonably priced. Will happily return - far better than anywhere else I've been in town (though I'm only a sporadic visitor as I live in Kent these days).

Food was good but the service terrible. Extremely rude waiter who seemed to hate us for just walking in the place. Literally threw down the towels at the end and they hadn’t been warmed up. Tried to get his attention to ask if they could be heated but he ignored us

Worst chicken biriyani I ever tasted. Staff/manager was so rude and billing was not proper. They manually typed the price and gave me "NOT PAID" receipt even after I paid. He told me that's how it is, when I asked about this.Never go to this place if you wanna have a peaceful dinner.

Ordered a take away to be delivered.The total cost was £82 and I was still charged £1 for delivery !The food was ok but the foil cartens with the main meals in were only half full, at £10 a portion I expected more.

The curry we got from Meah was good, the service was okay too.Unfortunately, our nan was dry / burnt and too rubbery.

Food was okay but the service and other charges(water) are very high.
Another lovely evening spent at Meah’s with family. Very flavoursome food served as always and the staff are always so friendly. I’ve been coming here for over 25 years as it’s the best Indian restaurant in the area by far.

A truly sumptuous meal for a small restaurant

Tried Meah for the first time and it's quickly jostled for top spot in our list of favourite Indian restaurants (sharing with Spice of Caddington.) Both restaurants have a loooong history in the area - not an easy feat for any restaurant business - and if you've eaten there you know why. To begin, Meah is not much to look at from the outside. You'd be forgiven for thinking it's just a hole in the wall that does take-away. We knew otherwise from other reviews and had low expectations, but the anonymous-looking door opens to a nice room seating roughly 30-35 which is simply and pleasantly decorated - perhaps it has been updated? Our server was polite and attentive, and the menu extensive. It's always a bad sign when you can't find something you really want, but by contrast there were several things we were both keen to try. I opted for the mixed meat Juliette special, while my husband choose a chicken Balti jalfrezi and Sag Paneer. All were delicious, finger licking good. The chilli in the Balti was not for the faint hearted but had such an exceptional flavour. The price too, with a couple of drinks, rice and bread was very reasonable. We were delighted with our meal, and to have discovered a good new place to eat. We will be back!

First the good - the food was really nice, hot and fresh. We didn't have any difficulty getting in on a Saturday night although it did get busier later on. Now the not so good - the decor doesn't look like it had changed since it opened but to it's credit it looked clean. We ordered 10 poppadoms and 15 turned up (pickle tray was excellent though), ordered 5 main meals and 6 turned up. The waiter was quite a character who I could only describe as an Asian Basil Fawlty especially when he moved one bloke mid meal so he could get more people in and told one couple to "just wait" when they asked if they could order food. He did make me chuckle though when it came to paying the £175 bill by asking if I could pay cash rather than use my card. Overall I would recommend.

I would give 0/10 to this restaurant, worst experience i had ever in my life in this restaurant, poor customer service, stall not professional at all , they named as Indian restaurant but don’t have Indian dishes, i asked for ice ; first they said we don’t have ice , then they said they but i will take time, then after seeing all this said just do the bill then they refuse to give us receipt. They were very rude when asked for the bill.
