    Another popular date night is Rumi! Known for their middle eastern cuisine this place did not disappoint! We loved their Persian meatballs with tomato and saffron sauce and the BBQ whole rainbow trout with Caspian olive and walnut sauce was simply delicious! The absolute must try is the Quail kebab with pickled grapes and dill! And although this was a little sweet for us we enjoyed the ice cream sandwich, a take on baklava.

    Had a date night here last night have been meaning too for years ! The reviews and ratings are next level so I think I maybe just had way too high expectations or it could be that Im pregnant and taste buds are all over the shop but I was slightly disappointed. Food was nice and fresh but just lacked the wow I think i was expecting. We had traditional banquet and staff were really nice and attentive . Highlights were cheese cigars forgot correct name , dips and chicken wings ! Chicken wings were great!! Lots of food I left full.

    This place is another one of my absolute favourites in Melbourne. In my favourite part of Brunswick lies this beautiful, big, welcoming middle eastern restaurant with a fancy flair.
    The food is always on point here. I almost always opt for the banquet because it has a big array of different meals and comes with the Sigara, the meatballs and the slow cooked lamb which are my all time favourites.
    A Melbourne must! I promise you wont be disappointed.

    Friday evening dinner at this wonderful Lebanese restaurant. We were a group of seven so ordered variety of dishes.

    Started with Almond taratoor and Lebanese tea. This was followed by Sigara Boregi aka cheese spring roll. Well cooked but abit too hot.

    Also, ordered Quail Joojeh kebab, king prawns, Persian meatballs and chicken shish kebabs.

    The star of the evening was definitely the Advieh marinated lamb shoulder. Tender meat and so well cooked. Went well with Pita bread.

    Ordered Cherry mocktail which was ok and the dessert was macadamia ice cream between crisp pastry.

    If in the neighborhood, must visit !

    Dined at Rumi mid week. Booked on line without any issue.
    Fairly nondescript from outside. Casual dining, no real ambience.
    Warm welcome, friendly efficient service.
    Staff explained the menu made some suggestions and left us to it.
    Food was delicious, portions sufficient and tasty.
    If you want middle eastern food with a low key approach- this is it. Not kitch or gimmicky- just good food and service.
    Highly recommend and we will be back.

    This place came highly recommended however it really missed the mark for us. We ordered the classic banquet and the only stand out dishes were the cabbage salad and the sigara boregi. The dips were great too however the other dishes were very average – the slow roasted lamb shoulder being the biggest disappointment as it was still tough and didnt pull off the bone like I was expecting.
    There are much better middle eastern restaurants in brunswick at better price points with better food.
