About this restaurant

Vegetarian-friendly
Neighborhood gem
Good for special occasions

Nestled in the heart of downtown Asheville, decorated with carvings, and statues imported from India. Mëhfil brings you authentic Indian food in a beautifully relaxed atmosphere.
Come enjoy a casual meal with friends or a celebration with your loved ones. Either way, you'll be taken care of by our knowledgeable and friendly team. We take pride in what we serve and how we serve it - Good Food and Great Service. We also offer takeout, delivery, catering and in Jul 2023 we have added Mow, Mehfil on Wheels, a food truck serving Mehfil food. Mow is a regular at the local breweries and can even come in to your neighborhood. Our signature dishes include the lamb chops, goat curry, deluxe mixed grill-an assortment of lamb and chicken seekh kebab, tandoori shrimp and lamb chops. No one does the tandoor as good us and our awards are testimony to that.

*FOR PARTIES OF 9 OR MORE, PLEASE CONTACT THE RESTAURANT DIRECTLY, HAVE A CREDIT CARD READY WHEN CALLING TO SET THE DEPOSIT*

Everything they make is amazing. So tasty and well prepared. Very attentive staff and great ambiance! We had tandoori chicken/ paneer Marsala ( great spice level with wonderful tomato- cream sauce). Chia tea was perfect! We throughly enjoyed it- owner came by checking on how everything was- very kind and personable! We will be back to try the lunch buffet and the $2.99 mimosas they serve at lunch. You can’t go wrong here.

The food was top tier, drinks as well. The ambiance was so comfortable, quiet and relaxing, and very tasteful with white linen tablecloths and a great view of the goings on of Asheville! We will be back!

This was a celebratory buffet which included dishes that are not normally presented. The flavors were delicious. Some of the fried items had a less than ideal texture, but that is to be expected when sitting in a closed buffet pan. Overall, it was marvelous!

This was our first time visiting Mehfil in downtown Asheville. The restaurant was moderately busy when we arrived. We were greeted and seated quickly. We had a reservation since we were celebrating a birthday. Let me start by saying the service was excellent. Our waitress and all the support staff were very attentive throughout the evening. We order Veg Samosas and Chicken Lollipops for appetizer and they were both very tasty. For dinner we ordered Lamb Roganjosh, Chicken Makhani, Chicken Tikka Masala, Baingan Bharta, and Dal Mehfil. Our two vegetarian dishes were by far our favorite. They were rich in flavor and had a nice texture. The chicken dishes were good but not as creamy as we expected they were more tomato based. The lamb was cooked well and tasty but our least favorite we found the spices a bit heavy in this dish. All the dishes we choose are our go to when visiting Indian restaurants. We will definitely visit again and explore some new things on the menu next time.
