About

Abla's Restaurant opened in 1979, in the same location it is today - Carlton's Elgin Street.

Story

Abla Amad was born in Lebanon and arrived in Australia in 1954 at the age of nineteen. In 1979 at the urging of friends and family she opened Abla's, a restaurant that has become a Melbourne institution. Ever since it opened, diners have returned time and again to experience her special brand of traditional, homemade Lebanese food. For Abla it is a cuisine that can only be made from the heart - that's why she is widely regarded as 'the queen of Lebanese cooking'.

This was my second time there. The first time was great. Beautiful food and great service. Well... this time was a little bit of an anticlimax experience. Some dishes were well executed but nothing that will wow you. But the service was a real disappointment. The waiter was very polite actually everyone was super polite but he did not know what the fish of the day was. Than when was time to order the main meals we have not had much help from him so we ended up ordering way more than what we needed for three people. The point here is that in the modern days customers expect service not a servant. As other people mentioned the building is old. It was clean but the toilet paper was more like sandpaper. I would not go back or recommend to my friends. There are better and cheaper places in Melbourne that will give you value for money.

I give it 3,5 nice service, nothing too fancy though. Food was good, but not wow. Building was old, more of a locals place I guess

Classless and Average Service was shocking and the food does not live up to other Lebanese restaurants. From the moment we went in we felt rushed as our table needed to “be turned over by eight”. However during the time that we were there, other customers were also being seated with no mention of a time limit! The food was expensive, very salty and servings were not consistent across all tables, not sure what that was about. We finished dinner within 45 minutes couldn’t wait to get out of there. Definitely won’t be back, horrible dining experience!
