Had an amazing experience at Mem Saab! The food was fantastic overall, but the dessert really stole the show. The brownies were absolutely incredible; warm, gooey, rich, and perfectly chocolatey. Easily one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. Big thanks to Welton, our waiter, who was super helpful and attentive throughout the evening. Great service really made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

We celebrated my Dad’s 80th Birthday last Saturday and I can not thank Raj and his team enough for making it such a memorable night, from the door being held open, especially as my father was on crutches after a knee operation only two days earlier to the complimentary drinks at the end of a wonderful evening enjoyed in the private dining area of the restaurant. The staff were professional and polite, the food was so plentiful ands varied, from the fixed meno option we chose every one of the 26 guests were to feel special. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant highly enough.

Meat Samosas as starter and Tandoori Combination as main. Enjoyed it with an Indian beer. I am not a food expert, but all was tasty, not very spicy (I prefer this way). Classy atmosphere. Good for special days or group events. Very friendly staff. A bit pricy but definitely a mist go place in the city.

The food was excellent, I’ve heard good things and yesterday we fancied Vegetarian food. The amazingly helpful member of staff Welton was very attentive, friendly and respectful, we felt very well looked after. He told us all the vegetarian starters and main courses that were available, but also went as far as to suggest an off menu item Soya Tikka which was out of this world! The atmosphere was great with a lovely vibe for couples, families and people celebrating milestones. The restaurants interior Is draped in opulence but is modestly welcoming at the same time. The service was great, even things down to ordered extra Roti, they said let us know and we’ll bring it out fresh within 5 minutes. The attention paid to detail is everything here. We ate the paneer butter masala, it was very tasty and one of the best in the city. The Tava roti was based a little on the roomali roti which was amazing and light all at the same time. They have in house made Pistachio Kulfi (ice cream) this was so tasty with the whole nuts, rose petals and subtle salt added to balance the flavours. Sandeep the manager was so forthcoming and welcoming we will certainly be returning. A must if you’re a foodie, a must if you’re looking for something extra special or like us for a normal Monday evening out!

Delicious food and lovely atmosphere! The curries were some of the best curries I’ve ever had and the lamb was so tender and juicy.

We had an amazing meal here last night for a belated birthday treat! We could not fault any part of it. The food was phenomenal and tasted so fresh and bursting with flavour, the wine accompanying was perfect and the attentive service we recieved was amazing. Special mention to Welton who really took care of us. He was so knowledgable and clearly very passionate about giving great service. An amazing evening!
