Arabic restaurant in Milton Queensland

“We had a pleasant evening here on a quiet Tues night and everything ran smoothly. We booked through The Fork, to take advantage of the 30% discount on food. But generally, apart from the discount, I would say that bookings aren’t necessary, as there are plenty of tables available both inside and outside. It being a balmy late summer eve, we chose to sit outdoors, which worked well for us. There were only a handful of other diners, some sitting inside, others sitting outside, and I found the ambience to be cool, casual and laid back. It was pleasant and relaxing to be sitting outdoors on a warm night. Park Rd is a fairly busy little restaurant precinct with numerous eateries on both sides of the road, so it has a lively and energetic vibe. DECOR: The decor at Cedars is stylish and elegant with classic wooden furniture, comfortable upholstered chairs, dark timber panels and good lighting throughout the venue. SERVICE: There were a bunch of Lebanese guys working here, and there were all super friendly, polite and helpful. Service was a pleasure. Our order was quickly taken and drinks and food came out at a steady clip and in the correct order. FOOD: Being just my wife and I, we stuck to a fairly simple ordering protocol. A corona for me and a glass of prosecco for my wife, followed by a fattoush salad for a starter ($15), two main meals and a shared dessert. The fattoush salad was beautifully prepared with lashings of lettuce, tomato and cucumber, smothered in a tangy lemon sauce and topped off with crispy croutons. A great way to start the meal. For my main course, I chose the Chicken Moussakhan ($28), which was an interesting dish with four portions of soft pita bread filled with succulent grilled chicken, onions, mixed nuts and served with yellow rice and a bowl of garlic and pomegranate sauce. My wife went for the chargrilled lamb skewers with spicy bread, rice and salad ($25). The meat was melt-in-your mouth tender and perfectly complemented by the fluffy yellow rice, roasted tomato, chilis and fresh salad. We both enjoyed our meals. To finish, what else, but our fav baklava ($10). Four pieces of pastry in a bird's nest configuration with mixed nuts in the middle and soaked in a sweet syrupy sauce. Perfect way to end the meal. TOILETS: There are clean and well provisioned toilets, inside the restaurant, with ample male and female cubicles. PARKING: Parking was a breeze in nearby Douglas Street, a short walk from the restaurants, but there are plenty of spaces in any of the nearby side streets, with no after hours or weekend restrictions. COST: After our 30% discount with our Fork booking, we paid $69 for the two drinks, a salad, two main meals and a shared dessert. That was decent value for money, given all the positives i.e. a super nice and comfy ambience, fast, friendly and efficient service and first rate food served in generous portions. Add to that clean and well stocked toilets and easy parking and you have all the ingredients for a relaxed and pleasant night out with fam or friends. I’m sure that we’ll be back soon.”

“Im absolutley in love with this place. The resturaunt offers a great range of middle eastern and Persian foods. They also have so many different drinks and amazing desserts. What really stood out to me was the amazing decoration and atmosphere of this place . ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT IT IS SIMPLY AMAZING and it reminds me of the lovely Persian designs and arts. The food was delicious and the customer service was beyond my expectations. The owner kept visiting every table and asking about the food and peoples experience. Overall Im so happy that a proper Persian resturaunt has openned in Brisbane. This place also has function rooms available for parties and private events on the second floor of the building.”
