First time visitors. We both had the recommended, lamb special. Asked if we needed to order any extras and were told that we shouldn't. The advice was correct. We both finished our roast lamb and rice dish, but it was really more than I needed. The flavours were great. I expect to return soon!

Possibly the best food you can have out in Melbourne if you're after authentic Middle Eastern cuisine at a Halal restaurant. I have been here a few times and honestly cannot speak highly enough of the staff, the quality of the food and the ambience. Don't worry about going elsewhere!

Atta-ur-Rehman J.10 months ago · 1 review

It was overall quite pleasant, the staff make you welcome and accommodate as much as they can, with a smile. Its quite heavily protein and rice based which we were trying to avoid and try other things from Yemen. The Shakshooka was ok and the sizzling mandi was not bad, nice and moist and pulled apart easily. The salad accompanying the Mandi was really fresh and had a delightful dressing with great balance. The chips were morbid and dry. I may visit again next time to have the rice based Mandi or get one of their recommended platters.

We had best experience of our life. The treatment of the the staff was beyond our expectations. Even we got late more than 30 minutes from our booking, they kept reserve our Majlis area and did not let sit anyone else. Food was awesome. Our children enjoyed sitting area and food too. Thanks Mandina kitchen staff. We strongly recommend others to go and make your day best.
