Quick info
About Mehfil Restaurant Dessert & Desi Breakfast
Mehfil Restaurant Dessert & Desi Breakfast is a Pakistani restaurant in Walsall on Hope St. Desi breakfast is served in a separate cafe next door, so morning meals have their own space apart from the restaurant. The menu includes lamb karahi and nihari, and the mixed grill brings together chicken kebabs, wings, tikka, lamb chops and masala fish. Roti comes with the mains. Inside the restaurant there is a seating area, and the owner greets customers as they arrive.

Customer Review Summary
Diners most often praise the lamb karahi, described as tender and full of flavour, with soft, fresh roti alongside. Close behind, one dinner order singled out the masala fish, palak gosht and ras malai, plus juicy lamb chops, while others mention the large tawa and a good variety for kids. Several families and groups describe friendly service and a clean interior. Complaints centre on slow, disorganised service. One diner had a very long wait while a fried chicken burger sat sweating in its box before the tikka and kebabs were ready, and found the loaded chips bland and the seekh kebabs not memorable. A breakfast party was sent to the cafe next door, where their paratha order was handed to another table as an error, and the food only arrived after a further wait. A large nihari came with only two pieces of lamb, which the reviewer called poor value. Even so, one visitor reports a breakfast order for 25 people, placed the night before, was ready right on time.

“I absolutely love coming to mehfil with my family. The food never fails to disappoint the customer service is always over and beyond. I have a daughter with special needs. The workers ensure we are looked after. I have loved the food each time I visit. Always fresh clean and lovely variety for kids.”

“I ordered a large Nihari and they sent only 2 pieces of lamb. £14 for two pieces of meat. The flavour of the sauce was good, but if a large is only 2 pieces of meat, then how small is a medium Nihari? This place isn’t good value for money. So I wouldn’t recommend it if you want decent portions. Unless you’re okay with paying £7 per piece of meat.”

“Placed an order for 25 people breakfast the night before. I travelled in from a different town and everything was ready bang on time. Food was fantastic and service provided was amazing. Highly recommended”

“Went from derby on a Saturday, upon arrival we was greeted and seated, after a short wait our was taken and 10 mins later we was asked to go to the cafe nextdoor as breakfast area was there, we went there and 2 female customers from the restaurant came a few mins later ( possibly had the same experience) about a further 10/15 mins later the food arrived and I had touched the parata but the ladies complained that originally they came before us in the restaurant area ( this was correct) the female staff quickly took our food and gave it to them saying it was a error. Further 10 mins wait our food came. Rude customer service and very basic food only decent item was the halva”

“I ordered the lamb karahi as a takeaway and was really impressed. The meat was cooked perfectly — very tender and full of flavour. I also had roti with it, which was soft, warm, and fresh. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and I noticed the restaurant owner personally greeting customers as they came in, which created a really nice atmosphere. The seating area looked fresh, clean, and well maintained. Prices are also very reasonable for the quality of food and service. I would definitely recommend this place and will be ordering again.”
