Overall a really great experience. The food was fantastic and the service was great. The only issue I have was the 22% service charge added. The service charge is added, then when you pay, the machine asks for a tip. The food isn't cheap, and I thought that was very excessive. The restaurant states: "*A 22% service charge is added to every party. Meesha retains 100% of this charge. It is used to pay commissions, provide benefits, and most importantly provide a living wage to our entire staff." I have no issue with a living wage, but this cost should be rolled into the price of the food.

For the fine dine options in Seattle, this was definitely one of the best we have had in terms of taste and quantity. The service was very slow even when the restaurant was only half full. They add 24% gratuity to every bill was a shocker. Overall, vibe was okay but the food was decent

This my favorite restaurant in Seattle now. Though it is Indian cuisine, it is really a unique take that sets it in a different category from any other. Every dish I've tried (and this includes many) have been great. The cocktail list is interesting. The ambiance is great. Though it is pricey, the portion sizes are actually huge for the mains. My favorite dish, which I highly recommend, is the Connaught Chicken.
Original fusion food that doesn't lose the Indian authenticity. Very tasty and generous quantity. Great service and solid atmosphere.

We've been here for several special occasions and it is always a treat. Among the best Indian cuisine I've tasted and the cocktails are a treat.

Beware! Came here hoping to get a nice Valentine’s Day meal.
For two people, we ordered: Three starters, one main dish, kitchen naan, 2 cocktails
1) Starter: Andhra gobhi 1/5 This dish was supposed to be very refreshing with the crispy cauliflower however it came out extremely oily and burnt. We could barely taste the cauliflower from the burnt areas
2) Starter: Rarah keema po 4/5 The flavor of this dish was perfect, however it was definitely still a bit on the oily side. But if you do have to come here, this would be the only dish I would recommend.
3) Starter: Chandni chowk aloo tikki 3/5 The stuffed potato croquettes were made perfectly but ruined by the excessive amount of sauce they lathered onto the dish. All you could taste was the sourness of the sauce.
4) Main: Lamb Mutton 1/5 Absolutely no flavor. Nothing to say. Meat was so hard and distasteful. Did not eat after the first bite.
5) Kitchen Bread 4/5 Pretty good but definitely different from most other place’s naan… it was glistening with oil
6) Cocktails (Merchant’s Wife & Tipsy Girl) For $19 per cocktail this is just not it. Didn’t taste at all like the ingredients listed in the menu. However the cocktails were definitely quite strong if you like it that way.
Three words wrapped up our entire experience here: OILY, BLAND, RUSHED. No foods to balance out the oils.
Keep in mind, three of our starters came at the same exact time and our main dish came out 5mins after. We felt so rushed the entire time with the pace of food and waiters constantly asking if we were done and if they could take our plates. You can definitely tell that they were trying to increase their turnover rate by how constantly they were coming over and the spacing of tables. The tables were so close that I could hear the people at the table next to us whispering to each other.
After our absolutely terrible experience, we were charged with a mandatory 22% gratuity charge. Total for everything was $150 plus $33 gratuity and $18 tax. Would not eat at this place if it was $20 much less $200.
Disappointed in my own selection of restaurant this Valentine’s Day. Will definitely be booking early next year, so I am not left with this last minute option.

The food at Meesha is incredible! Beautiful, upscale Indian cuisine. A must go in Fremont!! I’ve been here 3 times over the course of the last year or so and consistently was wonderful every time.
Excellent food. All of the people giving this place 3 stars had better be giving other Indian restaurants 1 star.

My wife and I had a wonderful dinner last night. Not your basic Indian food place, this was a little different, but great. I had the chicken, and she had the vegetarian dumplings. The Dal and Jalfrezi vegetables were delicious as well. We’ll definitely go back!

Starters are fantastic, portion size is quite generous (shared 2 starters, 1 entree, and some rice and roti among 3 people- and I have a big appetite) and their Lassi is amazing.
Vegetarian options: Most of the starters are vegetarian, and there's a great vegetarian entree selection.

Absolutely awful service here, we were waiting looking up and around patiently and took thirty minutes each time to get waiters attention. Then after a 22% gratuity charge for the horrible service. Never coming back here.

Some of the food we got was amazing, but about half of it was so salty it was inedible. For what you get for the money, we were a bit disappointed.
Great place!
