My fiancé and I dined here for our anniversary last night and I have to say the staff, and service they provided was absolutely impeccable! 10/10! We chose the Soufra menu that included a delicious variety of dishes from Shane's TV show, revolving around Iranian cuisine. I was expecting it to be a little more 'punchy' and stronger aromatic flavours... More

This was my second time at the Maha, both times for lunch, midweek two course soufra for $35pp (girls lunch) and Sunday soufra for $75pp (with husband). Both times the food was tasty and fresh, and although the portions are small, there are several dishes so on both occasions we all felt we were well fed. I am from middle... More

I've been to Maha four times for lunch and every time the food and service has been exemplary. Great inventive food, informal but efficient service, reasonable prices. What's not to like?

We visited Maha during a business trip to Melbourne on recommendation from a local. Initially a little nervous about the menu, we were soon at ease as the wait staff took us through the options. We had a couple of 'special' eaters with us including gluten intolerances however all needs were well happily catered for. A bonus was when the... More

We had a business dinner at Maha and it just happened to coincide with a private SBS event from the chef's show. The food was awesome and very filling with a varied mix from all over the middle east. Congrats to the team and if you get a chance you definitely want to try Gaz Donuts! The only complaint was... More

After following Shane Delia's TV show we felt it a must to try his Melbourne eatery. We chose the 4 course option which was more than substantial. Having travelled recently to Malta, Istanbul and various Greek Islands we were very impressed with the authenticity of his offerings. We also chose to have the matching wines which comprised 2 whites, 2... More

This was our first time at Maha and I must say we were very impressed. We ordered the 4 course menu option and there was too much for us. They certainly are not stingy with their sizes. The food was varied and every one impressed. Unfortunately we could not fit in the last course and although we did not ask... More
