Reviews Summary

Diners consistently highlight the exceptional service and the beautiful beachside location, especially the sunset views from the patio.

"Mahek Indian Cusine was A+ from service and the atmosphere, to the taste and food options. Our Chef (Paul Joe) came out to meet us and offered alternatives for a friend who was vegan, which was very hospitable!
Our meals were: Anjeer Aur Dahi Ki Lau, Kaju Pulao, Peshwari Naan, Indian Green Salad, Dal Tadka, Bhindi Do Pyaza-Mumbai, Malabar Prawn Curry, Lamb Roganjosh- Kashmiri, Ajwain Fish Tikka, and Subzi Soya Ki Seekh (in no particular order).
Chef 👨🍳 hand crafted 2 of the dishes and made them unique, the Anjeer Aur Dahi Ki Lau (Dessert) and the Peshwari Naan.
Each dish was flavourful, crafted, and paired with complementary spices and curries.
We ate here twice during our stay in Seychelles and I would recommend this establishment to any and everyone!!!!

"A Truly Delightful Experience at Mahek Indian Restaurant!
Our recent visit to Mahek Indian Restaurant in Seychelles was an highlight of our trip!
A special shout-out must go to Neel, who took incredible care of us throughout the evening. His attentiveness, warm hospitality, and knowledgeable recommendations made us feel so welcome and ensured every need was met. It's rare to encounter such dedicated service, and Neel truly elevated our experience.
The food was simply excellent. Every dish we ordered was bursting with authentic flavors, perfectly spiced, and beautifully presented. It was clear that great care goes into preparing each meal. We particularly loved the masala tea – it was the perfect comforting end to our delicious dinner.
Beyond the fantastic food and service, the restaurant boasts beautiful views of the Indian Ocean right along the beach.
And to top it all off, the menu was reasonably priced, offering fantastic value for such high-quality food and an unforgettable setting."

"This place is an excellent find for delicious dining in Seychelles. Really good service and excellent dishes and located directly on the beach. Reasonable prices, not much higher than in Europe and some dishes even lower. If craving Indian food, this place is worth a try. They are also very generous in portion sizes."
