Moksha Dining and Bar

  • Restaurant
  • Fine dining

A bold new Indian-fusion dining and bar experience in Carlton, serving soulful comfort food with a modern twist, playful cocktails and a vibe that feels like a warm hug. Moksha means liberation – the blissful moment when everything just feels right. 100% veg, 100% flavour.

Moksha was born from a simple dream – to create a space where vegetarian dining could be as indulgent, exciting, and soulful as any fine restaurant in the world. Inspired by the flavours of India and the vibrant energy of Melbourne, Moksha's vegetarian Indian-fusion cuisine blends the warmth of authentic Indian comfort food with fresh, modern twists.

The bar brings the same energy – creative cocktails, fine wines, premium spirits, and a touch of mischief, all designed to pair beautifully with the food.
