Best Lebanese restaurant locally . We have been going there for years. The food is just as good as my Lebanese mother's cooking.
We love the hummus, baba ghanouj, tabbouli, chicken shwararma sandwich which is to die for, and shish taouk chicken skewers .
The owners are so hospitable and friendly ; it is truly a family restaurant. After dinner, we always shop at the grocery and load up on their frozen spinach pies which can then be reheated anytime for a quick dinner .
Try the restaurant, you will be glad that you did.
Best middle eastern place in Melbourne. Their garlic chicken has had me coming back for 12 years now. Food is always consistent and made from scratch.
Awesome!. My boyfriend and I came here to eat and it was awesome. The food was great and there was a belly dancer (Friday nights) which was very entertaining. The owners and servers are very nice and attentive.
The home of the excellent $6.25 shawarma. The babaghannouj was excellent too. Recommended.
Excellent, inexpensive food in a friendly setting.
Fantastic Food. Middle Eastern Aroma is fantastic. The grape leaves are my favorite and just about everything else. The one criticism I would have would be to say that they should change their debit rule. You must pay at least $10 before they allow you to use a debit card. Being so close to FIT, that may deter some people who just want to come in and get something quick to eat. Still, the food is the best Middle Eastern around and the family who runs it are wonderful people. Plus the market attached is a great place to get some nice treats.
I picked up take-out a couple of times from a Lebanese restaurant in Melbourne called Middle Eastern Aromas. It's located in a somewhat dilapidated looking strip-mall and is half restaurant, half Middle Eastern market. I've picked up cans of stuffed grape leaves from the market on each of my visits! I tried their falafel pita sandwich, filled with falafel, lettuce, tomato, parsley, pickled cucumber, and tahini. The falafel had plenty of flavor and the pickles were interesting. In other Lebanese restaurants, pickled turnips seem to be more common on sandwiches. On another visit, I had the Chicken Shawarma Pita. This sandwich contained chicken, french fries, lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumber, and garlic sauce. The fries didn't seem to fit in with the rest of the pita in my opinion, although that garlic sauce was wonderful. I must have stunk for days afterward, but it's really good stuff.
Our new favorite local restaurant for sure!! We ordered the lamp shank and stuffed quail. All of them tasted amazing. Especially the lamp shank. It was full of flavor and soft! It literally melted inside your mouth. And the quantity of food was huge! Wonderful cozy restaurant and cute restaurant owner, who is so proud of his food! Love it! Thank you Aladdin!
My daughter and I truly enjoyed our meal at this super cute restaurant/store. The Owner/ Chef Aladdin was a sweetheart. He was very attentive to our needs he helped us pick out our order considering we are vegans. Overall I truly enjoyed my stay at the restaurant I can't get enough of Chef Aladdin 💖definitely recommend coming here!
Lemme tell you something...
For the location and it being a hole in the wall, this place was AWESOME! I was greeted as I came in, ordered the sample platter and a jallab. It was amazing! I got so full, I couldn't even finish it. Took it home, only to finish it later that night. My only gripe was that the rice was scorching hot as if just coming out of the microwave (but not a deal breaker). Definitely recommend!!!
Definitely a wonderful place for some authentic Lebanese food! The food was so flavorful! Will be back again soon. The customer service was out of this world. 5/5 for everything!!!!
The flavors are so tasty! Delicious.
Excellent Lebanese food with great vegan options! Everything was great from the lemonade, lentil soup to the Baba Taba sandwich. The service was exceptional. I shared that I am vegan and was given a great "tour" of the vegan items on the menu, of which there are plenty to choose from. I'd go back here in a heartbeat, or less :)
The staff is wonderful and courteous, the food is absolutely amazing and full of flavor. Have recommended many people here and no one has ever been disappointed, will continue to be a regular here 😊
My girlfriend and I ordered the specials. She had the lamb shank and I had White Snapper. Both were very delicious and we enjoyed meeting the owners. We will be back!
I love this restaurant lentil soup. It’s one of my favorites, customer service is excellent they’re very clean. The food is very delicious. I highly recommend it.
Authentic flavor and middle eastern decor. The owner Mustafa was very welcoming, and our food came out fast. Hot mint tea, falafel, gyro and hummus all done right. Extremely affordable.
