Maha Restaurant

📍 Maha Bond St Lunch at Maha Melbourne - Shane Delia is an incredible chef 😍 Bond St is a little land off Flinders St and has you push open the gold doors you enter down gorgeous stairs into a new world away from the hustle & bustle of the city The staff are wonderfully friendly and explained the menu & wine.

If you are looking for an unmatched fined dining experience, Maha is where you should stop looking. This place has unmatchable service and a brilliant menu! If it is an important day like your birthday, they get you a little special treat as well :D. I don't think there is any other place in Melbourne that does modern middle eastern dining this well. Bread = amazing Hummus = BRILLIANT The wine pairings go wonderfully well with the dishes. There are vegetarian and vegan menus available too. The mood is set from the very moment you enter inside and the team is the most wonderful you would have ever dealt with. It is not loud; it is not painfully quiet. It is not super casual; it is not uncomfortably formal. It is just perfect! Be mindful that the portions, especially the entree is quite big and you do want to leave room for mains and specially the dessert.

Fine dining is not just about the food, it’s the whole experience and Maha has nailed it. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance, the staff, how we were treated was brilliant. Then came the food, the subtle flavours of the chickpeas, the most delicious hummus I’ve ever had, the chicken wings, the kingfish, just devine. Then came the Lamb absolutely delish, in fact all of the meal was. The food was only topped by the quality service by the waitstaff, the sommelier wine suggestion was on point and our waitress was attentive and pleasant. I can’t rate Maha more highly.

Today, I visited a restaurant confidently recommended by an Australian friend. The moment I walked in, I was struck by the lively atmosphere. The restaurant was already packed with people, and the overall vibe was incredibly hip and fantastic. 🤩 ​In fact, I didn't even have to choose the menu. My friend took care of everything and ordered the course meal for us. And that choice was absolutely brilliant! ​With every dish that came out, I was so busy eating that I couldn't gather my senses due to the 'incredibly stunning and delicious' visuals and flavors. The delicate plating was a treat for the eyes, and the rich, exotic tastes filling my mouth satisfied my palate completely. Every course flowed in perfect harmony, making me feel like I had been treated to a true gourmet experience. ​All the wines we paired with the food were excellent, but the Raki was a first for me. It had a unique and appealing aroma and taste, and after a few glasses, it truly made me feel tipsy! Thanks to the pleasant buzz, I enjoyed the meal even more. ​From the ambiance and the food to the new drinking experience! Everything about my time here 'was to my liking.' I completely understood why my Australian friend had recommended it with such confidence.

Mind-blowingly beautiful food! Exceptional service, cool, warm atmosphere. You can see that everyone is having a fantastic time. My partner and I chose the Signature Experience, our favourite was the Wagu! I am grateful that the team easily offered delicious gluten free options. I would highly recommend Maha for a really special Melbourne fine dining experience, for oneself or as a gift idea.
