We were recently in Melbourne and stayed at a serviced apartment above this swanky middle eastern bar/restaurant. It looked a bit ritzy, but one night we thought we'd try it as it meant we didn't have far to go to get back to the apartment. The food was sensational - quite unlike any kebab or humous dip you might have...

I chose to have the mongolian sizzling lamb - turned out to be the saltiest meal I have ever had! I highly recommend the 'bottomless' glass of mineral water.

I have been living in Melbourne for around 5 months now and have gotten around a bit in the eating scene. However, whenever anybody asks me for a recommendation for somewhere nice to eat I instantly say 'Maha'. After eating in Cutler and Co, Movida and Rockpool I still insist that Maha has it all, excellent service, a lovely atmosphere,...

My partner and I were visiting Melbourne and decided to visit Maha. What a great choice. From the moment we walked in the service was impeccable. We were served refreshing drinks very soon after sitting down. We ordered the 4 course chef's selection for $75 each. The food was amazing. We popped into the restaurant earlier in the day to...

This is now the second time I've been to Maha and it is the best place to eat in Melbourne (do not go to Vue de Monde - totally overrated on all fronts). The food at Maha is amazing - just the right combinations - and portion sizes just right. Suggest the 5 course vs 8 (I've done both) as...

The ambience hits you on arrival, and a good night is there to be had. Waiters are great at explaining the menu and dishes, the food is delicious and plentiful. The shared plates are the best way to go. Have enjoyed this restaurant with the kids, and with another couple.

Have enjoyed several visits to Maha and cannot fault the food or service. We were lucky to attend a Maltese night and the food and stories took my (Maltese) mother back in time! The slow cooked lamb is to die for!

I went to this restaurant as part of a work Xmas Party. I was told it was Middle Eastern food. Upon arrival, place looks nice, then they start bringing out the food. This was NOT Middle Eastern. As with all the resturants the owner has, he toys with menus and foods to try and charge the earth for tiny amounts...

We were visiting from Sydney, meeting friends over from Perth, and they'd booked Maha. We were looking forward to eating there as our friend had found it recommended on the internet. I had a slightly sensitive stomach due to an Indian meal the previous night so only wanted a main course. The waiter (snooty) really pushed the set price 4...

I took 4 Thai colleagues to Maha on 29 September. We had the 4 course soufra after a few glasses of arak. The appetizer mezze plate was delightful with vegetarian dips, a warm hoummous appetizer, olives and warm middle-eastern bread (the beetroot dip was especialy fine). Next we had 2 warm "medium" plates: delicious deep-fried soft-shelled crabs and grilled lamb...
