MIDDLE EASTERN EATERY — Restaurant in Melbourne

Just had a "Shevid polo with spicy lamb shank" here. I gotta admit it was one of the most delicious Persian dishes I've ever tried. I would recommend if you wanted to try their lamb shanks, go with the spicy option🔥, their recipe is special and the gravy that comes with the dish on the side combined with the "tahdig" is a match made in heaven. Really enjoyed my time at this place and the employees were very polite and friendly.

This place was suggested to me by my brother Shahrooz, and by the compliments I heard from him, I couldn't wait and went there the very same day, and I gotta tell you, I wasn't disappointed 👌

I went to Collins Juice on my birthday for some legit Persian Food, and I was not disappointed. The vibe and the atmosphere reminded me of food courts in SEA, which was pretty cool, and it got me excited quickly.

Mr Javad and his lovely wife were extraordinarily friendly and kind. They helped my friend pick his dish as he hadn’t had Persian food before.

We tried almost everything, and they were all heavenly. I kid you not when I say they reminded me of my mom’s cooking—especially the Ghorme Sabzi (Veggie Stew).

The portions are enormous and value for money 💵 You get to pick a drink of your choice with your meal as well.

I loved this place and the food and the people who run it so much, and I’ll be getting my lunch in CBD from here most of the time from...

If you're ever feeling like tearing into a juicy and tender lamb shank for lunch, with a bit of rice and vegetables that all go well together, then you've got to try this place out. I've only tried the 'spicy' one, but considering it wasn't 'hot spicy' , I was afraid of trying the 'regular' one for fear of zero flavour, and presume they meant 'with more spices' instead for the one I do pick. Their chicken was nice too, but I'd still recommend the lamb shank first. They're also generous with the rice if you're really hungry (they almost gave me 3 times what I wanted) Absolutely recommend them for taste, flavour consistency and price...
