Marmara Restaurant serves the best Turkish food in Melbourne! The staff are very friendly and provide perfect service, even when the restaurant is full you never wait long for your meal. Great location on Chapel and trendy atmosphere inside Marmara ensure a great night out and delicious Turkish meal! Highly recommended!
Over the last 18 months , everytime we go to chapel street , we make sure we have dinner at Marmara . It came highly recommended to us and has never let us down . Excellent food. Excellent atmosphere . Wonderful choice of wines and beers . The service is so fast and always with a good heart . Last night they heard us raise a glass to celebrate my son's birthday , when we finished our meal , plates of delicious sweets with a candle were brought to our table on the house . Not once has this restaurant let us down . I can't recommend Marmara highly enough .
The quality of the food was great, and the ingredients were very fresh and the flavours were rich. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was cute, with LCD tvs made to look like windows looking into Turkey. The staff were friendly and informative as well.
Wow, absolutely amazing food and service. My mind is blown from the delicious food. Everything was cooked to perfection. The meat was so tender, the seafood was cooked perfectly. I would highly recommend eating here. The food was so good I even ordered take away for my lunch tomorrow.
It’s SO hard to find places that do delivery food as good as dine-in. Marmara one of the exceptions. I was craving hummus and bread and a meat wrap from watching those pesky YouTube videos and my god am I impressed. The hummus is 100% comparable to the kind you’d find in a jerusalem market (I’ve been so yes I’m not exaggerating) and the Turkish bread was beautifully hot when it arrived. The chicken wrap was tangy and hearty but not sickening; it was crispy and warm on the outside but a little bit too soggy at the bottom due to the sauce.
Highly recommend delivery or dine-in. It does not disappoint.
Marmara is a stalwart on Chapel Street with some customers we met being patrons for many years. Very Turkish setting and quiet. Good for a large group or just two.Interesting selection of food. We had the "Iman Fainted", baby eggplant lightly pan seared, then oven baked with a covering of diced tomato,capsicum & garlic. A fresh garden salad and bulgur rice at the side. We then had the traditional beef dumplings( manti); more akin to a Turkish version of gnocchi. We shared both dishes; the dumplings for just one person would have been too much. The dish reminded us of manti we had in small Turkish villages many years ago. The wine list has an interesting mix of Turkish, Greek, French, Italian and Australian. Reasonably priced and you can BYO for $10 per bottle. Strongly recommend.
Amazing food for great value. Highlight of the night has to go to the feta and spinach spring rolls- absolutely amazing! Also ordered the meat platter which had an array of perfectly cooked meats. Highly recommend
First things first, great service!! We tried this place on the 50% fork discount and we left really satisfied. The Turkish bread was super fresh and our lamb kebab and seafood claypots were flavoursome. We did find the spinach and feta pide and ricotta salad to be a little bland but otherwise though it was a delightful meal!

I'd been wanting to try this place out for ages, and I found myself wandering around Windsor one balmy summer evening. I snaffled a table out the front with the dog, the perfect position to enjoy the Chapel Street parade. There was a steady stream of customers coming and going, and it wasn't hard to see why. The food is taken very seriously here, and is incredibly authentic. The dolma were fresh and zesty, zinging with flavour. I was torn between the pide or the manti for a main, and ended up going with the manti, traditional Turkish dumplings. The massive bowl of dumplings that were placed in front of me assured me I'd made the right choice. With sauce layered over the top of carb-covered ground beef, I was in absolute heaven. When I couldn't eat the entire dish, the staff graciously sent me home with the remainder in a bowl. Thank you for a wonderful evening - I'll definitely be back!
The fresh calamari was delicious and so was the turkish grilled cheese blocks (not sure the name of it). Amazing flavor and delicious combo!
Very friendly service and delicious food
