Welcome to Mela Tandoori Kitchen, San Francisco's Premier Restaurant specializing in Indian and Pakistani Cuisine !!!

Here at 'Mela' we offer the most exquisite assortment of Indian and Pakistani dishes in the Bay Area. With an extensive menu, serving only Halal/Zabihah meats, brilliantly designed decor, blending a beautiful ambiance with silk sarees, candles and wall tapestries we have more to offer than just great food and a cool vibe, we have perfected the most memorable experience in Indian and Pakistani dining !!!

For starters, may we recommend some Spicy Tandoori Wings or perhaps the milder Chicken or Vegetable Samosas or even better yet, Tandoori Paneer, a vegetarian delight. The menu is filled with selections to please each individual taste bud, for those who are seasoned veterans of Indian/Pakistani dining or for the folks attempting, with slight reluctance, to enjoy their very first experience. Work your way through the many choices, try to do things 'family-style', order some Tandoori dishes, may we recommend the Mixed Grill, or perhaps a Curry dish, like the staff favorite, Chicken Tikka Masala. Even more excitement comes in the form of our Biryani's, especially the ever-succulent Prawn or Fish Biryani, be sure to give one of those, or both, a try. Vegetarians need not worry as the expanded menu includes many of the old favorites as well as some new creations. Have you ever tried any Okra dishes, well if not, try our Tawa Bhindi, a mildly spiced entree, made with sautéed tomatoes and onions, or stick with Chana Masala or Palak Paneer, dishes that work equally well with some of our saffron infused Basmati Rice or any of our varieties of Naan. With all this great food, be sure to order one of our Lassi's, a Traditional yogurt drink, which is more like a fruit smoothie, designed to complement the dinner you're about to enjoy. And finally, complete your dining experience here by saving room for a warm serving of Gulab Jamun or for our signature dessert, an ice-cold Faluda, ideal for soothing your senses.

So much ado about everything, we look forward to hosting your gathering or intimate dinner, Thank You for becoming our guest and for choosing to take a stroll through our 'Mela' !!!
