Bar Saracen is one of those places that make you feel at home. When you enter the staff are so kind and welcoming and the ambience of the space is perfect for the delicious degustation that is about to ensue. Head chef Tom Sarafian has nailed every single course here with great attention to detail. The spanner crab hummus is in the top 5 dishes of melbourne for me which is a big call because lots of the food on this menu deserves to be up there. Perfectly crispy skin Murray cod, flavourful toum chicken skewers, soft and succulent. The most perfect blushing red lamb with an amazing harissa sauce. We had some vegans with us who were catered to as well with a range of substitute dishes. The bar tenders are always helpful and happy to recommend drinks to match to the good. There are some absolute pearlers in the wine menu that are left of centre and different to what you would normally have. Get down here ASAP. It’s a big vibe. You will leave super full and of course super happy.

I had the okra, Persian rice and Chicken. Truly the most tasty chicken skewers I’ve ever had. Really, do try the chicken. It is unusually better than normal chicken! Okra was tasty if you are familiar with Okra’s texture. It should though be served with some sort of accompaniment. Persian rice was delicious. Highly recommend!

Been there a couple of times and the service and food are spot on. Hummus is probably the best I’ve tried so far and they now add the crab to make it even better. Fish Fatteh is a must try dish. This time I’ve tried chicken kebab and the Kashk-e-Bademjam and im just looking forward to eating there again, awesome. Looking forward to seeing this place with a well deserved Hat!

Step up the lane and middle eastern awesomeness the Wait staff Ben Yossi and sensational... Take the advice of Yossi and have a bit of everything. Yossi has special chef dishes not on menu that are incredibly special. For couples or with a mate (I was with a mate but sent pics to my wife who will be down next visit) we had a great Croation wine bit like a dry shiraz on steroids followed by a serious tasty soft tones of a perfectly ripe cabernet savignon from Turkey. What a great experience. Come here before the theatre or just wander up from the local hotels. Easy to find. And trust me you will be pleased you found Bar Saracen up a lane way from the corner of Exhitbition and Lomdsdale. Google maps will help you get here

Menu is very understated - no fancy adjectives. We loved every single dish - so much flavour and variety. Can recommend the prawn borek, eggplant and beef. The home made pitas are addictive be careful!

We had our New Years Eve meal here and it was absolutely phenomenal! The Egyptian seafood set menu was to die for and paired with the most incredible wine. Authentic, modern and inventive all in one. The staff were great! By the end I felt like an expert in the different wines and flavours that were Cleopatra inspired. I would highly recommend Bar Saracen to anyone looking for something a little different and exciting. Some of the best food I’ve eaten in a long time. Thank you for such a great night guys!
