I just had a delightful dinner at Mela Indian Restaurant! 🌟 We sampled the chili pakora, Lamb Rogan Josh, and the Vegetarian Thali - seriously, the korma was a revelation! The crispy garlic naan was a perfect compliment.

The atmosphere was relaxed, and our server was attentive. The restaurant was quiet, but you could feel the warmth of good company as more diners arrived.

They also offer a great beer selection, including the refreshing Taj Mahal. 🍻 I can't wait to return for their weekend buffet! Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Indian flavors.
