Arabesque Dining & Bar

Great experience and looking forward to coming back and trying other things on the menu.

Nice experience,good environment,tasty food served with good customer service to us.Thanks

Excellent food and service. The Turkish Delight martini was fantastic.

Floor wasn’t vacuumed and was filthy. Crockery and cutlery were old. Glass ware was dull. Lamb hot pot was very fatty. Waiter was nice and service was good.

The atmosphere was lovely. The food was delicious. The service was great.

Great food. Restaurant can get a bit noisy at times

First time back to Arabesque in 18 months and unfortunately it's not what it used to be. The food was good, but I had an issue with a very late and 'dishwater' Turkish coffee. I politely mentioned this to the waitress who replied that they were having difficulties, and then totally ignored me. When I paid the bill she told me "I can't take the coffee off the bill. You ordered it", and then asked me for a tip. Very rude, no people skills. Not impressed. It wasn't the $4 for the coffee that annoyed me. It was the totally dismissive attitude, as if I had the temerity to question the bill or comment on an issue. I won't be back. And don't order coffee if you risk going there.

The atmosphere was noisy but, the food and service was good

Always good food at reasonable prices Service excellent Great atmosphere

Food and service was very good really enjoyed and want to go again

The Turkish Banquet is great value, excellent quality, great taste and is delivered hot to the table. The apple tea and Smashed Baklava & Halva Icecream Taste of Turkiye – $65 pp banquet was fantastic food, great quality and timely service

This is a good neighbourhood gem. The food is good and well priced. We always enjoy our meals here

Superb food, wonderful service and great atmosphere, Would not hesitate to go back many times.

i love the banquet at this place and the fact that i could take leftovers home to continue the enjoyment the next day.

Great food + service. At times the noise levels were too high. Otherwise a very enjoyable evening.

Arabesque is a wonderfully congenial place to meet up with a group of friends. The food is tantalizingly delicious and great to share at table.

Fantastic food, authentic and tasty. Delicious unique drinks - loved the rose tea and the pomegranate mojito! Subtle, melodious live jazz music on a Sunday night. Classy and atmospheric. Friendly staff too.

As always a beautiful place to eat. Service can be a bit slow but food is worth it.

Enjoyed the food, friendly staff provided great service throughout the evening

Great food, as always. One of the best Middle Eastern restaurants in Melbourne.

Food was great, and it had a really nice atmosphere.

Fantastic food and great service. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

It was really friendly environment and great foods I enjoyed there

Food and service was great! Would definitely recommend trying it out :)

Enjoyed the food staff pleasant and professional . But too noisy !!

We were a group of 6 friends 3 of us vegetarian. The food was beautifully presented,served in modern form but holding the traditional tastes of the Lebanese food that we are used to. Loved it all and our vegetarians were beautifully catered for with no problems.

Delicious and impeccable service in lovely atmosphere - would recommend🙂

Lamb Shish was delicious, service was great, but the dips weren’t that good, especially for a middle eastern restaurant. The pita bread was good though 😂

Food was great. Atmosphere was lovely too. Staff were very helpful.

Warm ambience, food was great with excellent service. Interesting mix of cuisine, would highly recommend a visit.

Lovely food as always. Enjoyed very much. Will come back again.

Great food, fast service, knowledgeable efficient staff white wine could be colder

Our family of four had a Tuesday dinner at this Restaurant to celebrate a family occasion. Overall, our experience was mixed. The ambience / decor of this restaurant is nowhere near as good as made out in the website photos. This is quite misleading and disappointing. For dinner we ordered the Chicken Makloubeh which was excellent and the Lebanese Fish and Stuffed Calamari which were both good. The portion sizes of all three dishes were generous too. We also ordered the Mixed Grill For Two but were disappointed with the miserly offering of meats - there were only two pieces of each of the following: lamb cutlets, small sausages, lamb skewers, chicken skewers and lamb cutlets. Everything in the platter was really tasty, but for $58 we expected more meat. For dessert, we ordered the Baklava which was very good. For drinks we ordered two glasses of their Spanish sparkling wine which didn’t have the fizz that one would expect from a freshly opened bottle. So at the end of the evening we left with ambivalent feelings regarding our dining experience here.

Really pleasant evening with great selection of food in the banquets.

Very tasty and good food, friendly atmosphere and staff, no waiting time.

Food was fantastic and service was great. Will recommend to friends

Food and service very good. Will definitely go back there

Amazing as always! Food drinks and service. A must go

Food was fast and fantastic. Ambience and service awesome. Prices also more than reasonable. The only thing that stops us from eating here on a regular basis is the booking structure. 6.15 is too early but 8.30 much too late (for us).

We are return customers always enjoy the food and service
