Reviews
"A very intimate place for a quiet dinner. We were greeted by a very friendly staff who helped us with our orders. We started with a couple of dips: Htipiti – roast Capsicum, feta and walnut dip ($10), and Tzatiki – traditional cucumber, garlic, dill, and yoghurt dip (10). They are served with warm pita bread. And from the menu, we ordered the Char Peppers – with pomegranates, feta & EVOO ($17), Prawn Kataifi – prawns wrapped in shredded wheat pastry, served with aioli ($18.5), and a couple of Lamb Skewers ($9 each), and Chicken Skewers ($8.5 each). We loved the dips and the skewers. The meat was juicy and perfectly seasoned. As for the prawns and char peppers, they weren't our favorite. Make sure you book, as they don't accept walk-ins unless you want to sit outside."
"Amazing quality of service and food. My partner and I came wanting a full experience of the menu but saw the banquet was for 3+ people - decided to pick and choose some options and everything that came out was perfect. Staff were lovely, atmosphere was brilliant and we left absolutely fulfilled. Highly recommend"
"Came to Bahari tonight for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. We had the $65 banquet and everything was delicious. The food was great and seated upstairs, the ambience of the room was cool and moody with soft lighting and great music. The roast lamb shoulder was a highlight of the meal. Melt in your mouth, fall off the bone meat, could eat that forever. Will definitely be coming back here and recommending to friends and family. Thank you for the excellent service, Bahari Team."
"Tasty and filling. We ordered individual main dishes, but in hindsight they were better suited to sharing. The lamb shoulder was a highlight. Regrettably the octopus and goat menu items were unavailable when we visited."
