"Amazing tasting menu! Food here was incredible, with service to match. We got the tasting menu which had us bursting at the seams by the time we were done, definitely recommend! (The add on for the fish of the night was the best decision we made ever! So good)"
"We did the 'Feed me' menu option, which I definitely think is the way to go for your first time here. So many drink options, the signature Rumi Cocktail was so refreshing and perfect to pair with every meal we tried. The lamb was our highlight, and the only let down with the food, was we thought the pita bread served with the dips would be warmed, however this did not take away from how delicious and flavourful each of the dips were. Finally, if you go for the 'Feed me' option, then definitely opt-in for the Fish of the day also, you won't be disappointed."
"A great little gem in the heart of Brunswick. Amazing ambience, delicious food and great customer service. Parking could be a bit hassle if you’re visiting in busy hours on a weekend especially. Food is really good, we tried 5-6 dishes and all were amazing. They sell alcohol however their food is mostly Halal suitable. Highly recommended."
"The food here was delicious! We had ordered the chicken skewers, lamb shoulder, Persian pilaf and lamb meatballs. It is so lovely to see that they have the lamb meatballs options for those who don’t eat beef. The service was really friendly. The food took a little bit of time to be served. However, when it did arrive it tasted freshly made so well worth the wait! The aesthetic of this place is well done! I like the interior decor. I think they did a good job of trying to capture a part of the essence of the Sufism and Rumi’s poetries."
