Kamel has to be hands down the best Middle Eastern food in Melbourne. Everything that we ordered was delicious and served quickly from polite staff who were dedicated and wanted to make sure that everything was right. I will definitely be going back again !!
We ordered a number of dishes that were perfect for sharing. Everything we had tasted delicious and was filling and the service was great too.

This place is okay. I'd say more a 3.5 than a 4 out of 5. My friend and I ordered the banquet, which is comprised of a fair amount of food for $40. It started with the Turkish bread, which I found quite underwhelming. It was okay. The hummus it was served with was very dry, though the beetroot dip was marginally better. The falafels weren't crunchy at all, they were quite mushy yet had a tough exterior at the same time. The tahini honey was way too sweet. The chicken shish kebab was nice and the meat was tender, but it was a little oversalted. The tagine and the sweet potato chips were absolute standouts - they could not be faulted. The dessert of baklava and Turkish delight (one of my personal favourites) was also excellent. Service was lovely and accommodating.
Overall, I think there's better food to be had elsewhere. Our experience here was quite lovely, but most of the food was underwhelming. There was also a really weird smell on the way to the bathrooms, which would best be sorted out!
