Abla's Restaurant

  • Restaurant
  • Casual dining

A Melbourne institution, Abla’s has dished up Abla Amad's delicious food since 1979. Get in there to see why they call her 'the queen of Lebanese cooking'.

Banquets are a great option at Abla’s, serving up the most popular dishes on the menu including mixed dips, felafel, lamb or chicken skewers, and chicken and rice. A vegetarian banquet option is also offered.

If you'd rather something à la carte, try the smoky baba ghannouj, lamb ladies' finger pastries, kibbee and kafta, and of course the baklava.
