Sezar

The verdict

From the crew behind The Black Toro in Glen Waverley, Sezar is a contemporary Armenian restaurant tucked down Melbourne Place in the CBD. Inspired by traditional Armenian flavours, along with the influences of neighbouring countries, Sezar dishes up mouth-watering share plates and charcoal meats, along with flavoursome sides, sweet treats, and a very well-stocked drinks list that can all be enjoyed over two levels of dining. Take a seat at the bar, order one of their inventive cocktails (we adore the Kardashian Fling) and dig into their moreish Middle Eastern-inspired food, which is available until 3am on the weekends!

Sezar have also recently renovated their upstairs dining area, which is perfect for functions or a night of banquet feasting. Whatever you do, make sure you leave space for a new style baklava of crispy filo, walnut toffee ice cream and salted caramel. Drool.
