We made reservations for early Christmas dinner. It was incredible. The service, the ambiance, but especially the food. We love Indian food, and this was some of the best we've ever had. Thank you for being open!

We've just discovered this sweet spot in our neighborhood. We enjoyed the evening, except for two factors: 1. My husband ordered the pork dish and it was dry and tough. 2. We nearly froze as with everyone coming and going there was very cold air. I hope that management can address this door/cold air issue to keep people coming in the winter time.

Mela always hits just right! We had varying degrees of spice-tolerance in our group, so our server was able to guide our guests through ordering. We had the chicken korma with tender pieces of chicken and a delicious, rich cashew/peanut sauce; a lamb special with a similar sauce as the korma, but a tad more spice, an eggplant dish, and the chicken vindaloo, which our guests asked to be extra spicy. We all loved our dishes! We loved the vegetable somosas too. Our server was professional and attentive. This restaurant has been in Asheville as long as I have, and it never disappoints!
