Good Food but beware
I have been a regular at Mahesh, and the food is always great here.
Only warning I will give, beware of the over-selling tricks they use. This has happened on two occasions with me.
Try ordering a crab or a regular lobster dish from the fixed price menu - a standard reply will come - Today the regular size lobster or crabs are not in stock, and will be only served 'AS PER SIZE' now these three words I dread on any menu card. Well now you will have a fashion parade of well-trained waiters with their wares - large , LIVE crabs and lobsters. You all get excited - there will be some foriegners on the next tables saying their wow's and taking pictures and in the process ordering.
Even I ended up ordering the 'AS PER SIZE' dish.
On my way out I was waiting for the valet to bring my car, I was seeing the crabs on display and asked the manager outside if I could order a regular Crab dish as a take-away and he promptly said yes, I ordered one regular crab dish at a regular price, and walked out feeling cheated by the Over-selling tricks Mahesh Lunch Home used. They don't need to do this, or else they will spoil their reputation.
I also have got the name of their Owner and want to talk to him about this, but he never comes online.,....
Anyway, this is just a warning, and all burrpers should raise this issue if you come across a similar treatment. Least that will happen they will get the message and stop these dubious ways of over-selling.
Over all eating experience at Mahesh - EXCELLENT
