Mezban Indian Restaurant is a neighbourhood Indian and Bangladeshi dining room at 164 Derby Lane in Liverpool’s Old Swan area. It serves dinner in a relaxed setting, with reservations and table service alongside takeaway and delivery for customers who prefer to eat at home.
The menu covers familiar curry styles with a choice of meat, seafood or vegetables and heat levels ranging from mild and creamy to sharply spiced. Chicken jalfrezi, butter chicken, lamb tikka curry and chilli masala illustrate the breadth of sauces available.
Tandoori chicken and mixed grills bring charred, marinated flavours from the clay oven, while prawn puri and poppadums work well as starters. Basmati rice, keema rice, garlic and coriander naan and other breads provide the traditional accompaniments for sharing several dishes.
Vegetarian and vegan choices allow mixed groups to order across the menu, and drinks can accompany a sit down meal. Guests with allergies should speak directly with the restaurant before ordering because dairy, nuts, gluten and shared kitchen preparation can feature in curries, breads and marinades.
Address: 164 Derby Lane, Liverpool L13 6QQ, England
