There's always a quiver of expectancy when one stumbles across the 'next big thing'. The high-flyers of the medical fraternity have already discovered this new Moroccan gem and, with the eatery happily ensconced amid the genteel surrounds of Subiaco, it won't be too much longer before the rest of the establishment is hammering down its doors. Meeka is a family-driven business, with mother Faye as manager, daughter Leah manning the kitchen as head chef, and barista Ben serving up some brilliant coffee art. Inspired by her travels, Leah's menu reflects her passion for Middle Eastern food. The slow-cooked chicken tagine served with green olives and jewelled couscous has a wonderful, almost-Spanish feel to it, with the couscous balls bursting in the mouth like caviar. The doughnuts, similar to Dutch oliebollen, are a specialty of the house; filled with dark Callabeau chocolate, they're bound to fill any residual gaps. The artefacts decorating the eatery lend to the Middle Eastern theme, while major renovations are afoot to create a wine store-style fit-out designed to complement Leah's excellent mezze tasting plates.

Wonderful Meeka
I've just arrived home after eating the best meal that I've had in Perth for ages. The service and food was just perfect. I had a pork chop encrusted with walnuts, served with popped corn fritters, fennel salad and a sweet potato pikelet. The desserts were unusual but fantastic.

Fantastic!
Absolutely loved this restaurant, If you like Moroccan food, or even if you want to try something different, i would definitely recommend it. Delicious slow cooked meat in tagines with cous cous. Very good sized portions and a good variety of meals to choose from. Will go back again and again

Amazing Meeka
The four of us drooled over the menu and couldn't find enough superlatives to describe the food when it arrived. Everything was wonderful.
The combination of ingredients, many of which we had never heard of, and flavours was amazing.
Servings are quite generous so if you want to save room for dessert - a must - share just the one entree before the main course i.e. if you can make a decision. And desserts are good to share, too.
Like us you will have to return to do justice to the wonderful food at Meeka's!

Very happy
Superb find. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Have had Moroccan and middle eastern food before but have often found the flavours to be quite lacking and somewhat bland - not so at Meeka! The flavours were great and everything we had was very tasty. There were 15 people at lunch and everyone felt the same way. The service was attentive and genuine. Well done guys and I wish you every success. I will be back again very soon.
