Roza Restaurant — Restaurant in Melbourne

🤩Having visited multiple occasions at this incredible and personal favourite restaurant, what can I say about @rozarestaurant is a culinary gem that offers a welcoming atmosphere, excellent customer service, and an array of delicious food. 🌹💐🔥🥰😍👌 🍚🫶🏻The best Mandi ever! Absolutely amazing and delicious, fresh and steamy hot, with great quantity of lamb pieces and juicy flavoursome chicken! The portion size is generous too and the food is always fresh. It has great space to sit, outside area which is very decent as well. They have great table for families. I had the Mutton Mandi & Fish Fillet and one of the best flavours of Mandi. Lamb was really tender and the other fish Mandi was also good. Delicious flavour of rice and tenderly cooked meat. Experience the flavors, where succulent mutton and chicken rice dishes transport you to the heart of the Middle East. With exceptional staff, @rozarestaurant is a brilliant stay reminiscent of Arabian hospitality. The dedication of the owner and staff to providing an outstanding dining experience is evident in every aspect of the restaurant. Overall it is always a pleasure to have Mandi there.🍗🥩 Will definitely come here again! Highly recommended!! Don’t miss the delish desserts. A personal favorite is their absolutely amazing tea, which adds the perfect finishing touch to any meal.☕️🫖 I wholeheartedly recommend @rozarestaurant to anyone in search of a memorable dining experience with family and friends or simply an intimate experience...

Went to this restaurant with some friends based on a recommendation, and it may have just been a bad night but unfortunately I quickly regretted it.

The menu has about 10 different meal options but when we ordered (and without being told when we first walked in or when we were given the menu), we were told that all the meals we requested were not available (and it wasn't a busy night). We basically ended up having to choose between just 3 available options, and there was just one vegetarian option available out of the five or six on the menu. Additionally, we were told we had to go to the counter to order and pay even though we could see that other groups were ordering at the table as you would expect in a restaurant.

Once we ordered, we ended up waiting a full 50 minutes for our meals to arrive, even though there were just three of us, and by the time our meals finally arrived other groups who had come in after us had almost finished their meals!!! The food was good enough but certainly not worth the ridiculously long wait.

The ambience is quite dated and tired, with unbelievably poor lighting which does not create an inviting atmosphere. Staff were friendly enough but as above, the food took forever to arrive. Unfortunately I won't be coming back unless the service...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Roza Restaurant — Lamb Mandi That Raises the Bar

I recently tried the lamb mandi at Roza in Coburg, and wow t’s one of those meals that makes you want to come back every week. The lamb is fall-off-the-bone tender, richly spiced in a way that hits you just right: aromatic cardamom, cinnamon, subtle pepper not over-the-top, but deeply flavourful. The rice bed beneath is fluffy, generously portioned, and infused with just enough saffron (and the other spices) that each bite is satisfying.

What elevates the experience even more: the complimentary lamb broth style soup as a starter. It’s fragrant, warming, and introduces the meal beautifully. Then there’s the self-service tea (chai / karak) at the counter sweet, comforting, a perfect end-note to the meal.

The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming; the decor leans traditional, with Arabic music adding ambience. The service is friendly and attentive even when the place is busy. And despite popularity and a good crowd most nights, the wait is worth it.

If you love authentic Middle Eastern Mandi this is pure joy for the senses. Roza nails it. Highly...
