Meat & Mackerel (By Calicut Paragon)

"Last night I visited Meat and Mackerel with my family, and it was a lovely experience from beginning to end. Every dish we tried both veg and non-veg was full of flavour and thoughtfully prepared. The fish, in particular, was soft and perfectly cooked with a great blend of masala. I personally really enjoyed the Chicken Lollipop; even though it’s a simple dish, the tenderness of the chicken and the flavours truly elevated it. A special mention to our server, Samir he was incredibly kind, sweet and very efficient. He happily accommodated our special requests, and the service was impressively quick, with each dish arriving within 10–20 minutes. Don’t miss the dancing chai after your meal it’s a must-try! Hoping to try their filter coffee next time, as it was unfortunately sold out during our visit."

"I had a great experience at Meat and Mackerel in Barsha Tecom during my first visit. The staff hospitality was excellent, and I really appreciated the guidance on what to order, which made the experience smooth and enjoyable. A special mention to our server, Mr. Vishnu, he was very professional, attentive, and proactive. He ensured our seating comfort by checking on the AC cooling and promptly making adjustments when needed. The fish dishes I ordered were well-prepared, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The quality of the food combined with the reasonable pricing makes this restaurant stand out. Meat and Mackerel has definitely become one of my go-to places, and I look forward to visiting again."

"Mr. Azhar, Ms. Poonam and Mr. Abhilash, thank you! From helping us plan a surprise to suggesting the best dishes, you made our first visit truly memorable. Thank you for accepting our feedback on the Hammour in Creamy Sauce dish, and promising to improvise. We look forward to many more visits and great new dishes. Keep up your customer service and food quality!"

"The food was good. The service was great… Just that i didn’t understand their menu. It was very confusing as to what cuisine they trying to offer.. they are selling steak ,chinese, Japanese south indian.. it was anything & everything.. & there is a surprise they don’t have fish biryani on the menu. Also filter coffee creme brûlée was great. The pricing i feel was slightly on the higher side."

"The food here is absolutely amazing with beautiful presentation, and the ambience has such a good vibe. Truly an underrated restaurant! The prices are very reasonable, and the staff are warm and friendly. Special thanks to Ratheeban for his excellent service—he noticed when I accidentally spilled a little food and immediately brought me wet tissues without even being asked. That level of attentiveness made the experience even better. Highly recommended!"
