Rumi Brunswick

Nice ambience for business meetings, but unfortunately, the food was not great.We were looking forward to try this Lebanese cuisine,as we had not visited this place before but we were left disappointed.There was too much oily and fried food going on.The oil was old and with rancid taste.We had plates to share..Please see the photoes.I would nor rush to go back again.

Really enjoyed the banquet, it was a great selection and the perfect amount of food. And despite the restaurant being full to the brim the service was quick and very friendly. The lamb and the cauliflower were highlights.

The Rumi cookbook is so good we had to try the restaurant, and it was every bit as good as the recipes. The new space in Brunswick is fabulous – warm, busy, packed on a Saturday night, but you never felt like the tables were too close or that you couldn’t enjoy your own space. Around us were couples, 3 generation family birthdays, girls nights out, blokes nights out – and everyone having a great time. Service was superb – fast and totally on top of the menu, which, in our case involved instant expert advice on what was suitable for a celiac. The food then came out quickly, as did the drinks, though we never felt under pressure to move on. The labne was a perfect starter, the quail kebabs perfectly cooked, and definitely get the lamb shoulder. The best dish though was the cigars (though not for celiacs). A fascinating wine list of bottles and by the glass from places you’ve never tried before, such as the Lebanese Cinsault, which was well worth the adventure.

Perfect place to celebrate my birthday with the set menu they offered. We enjoyed eating everything, even the salads were to die for!

Wow. We celebrated my partner's and his mum's birthday, and this restaurant will definitely be a place to remember. The food was outstanding. We ordered the banquet for $85 each and it blew my mind. The middle-eastern and lebanese style of food was so delicious, with my favourites being the cauliflower, meatballs, feekah, lamb shoulder and spicy chicken. Honestly everything was cooked to such a high level, and service was great. They have a joining wine bar which we went to when we arrived slightly early for our booking and thought this was fantastic to get a drink or two while our table was being prepared. Overall would definitely recommend this restaurant for a nice evening out, or to celebrate and eat a feast!

Always such reliably fantastic food here. They have a diverse menu, with standout favourites like the school prawns & freekeh salad, but also some seasonal dishes. The servings are generous and perfect for sharing. The barramundi was cooked perfectly. New location has easy parking and they've made an effort to add sound deadening to areas of the restaurant which makes a big difference to the atmosphere. Hot 🔥 tip! The school prawns usually come out really quickly so are fantastic as a shared entrée.

I remember having dinner when Rumi first opened their doors. It was fantastic, full of flavour. I can confirm, it's better now. The service was excellent, from the host to the person looking after our table. It was seamless, knowledgeable and unrushed. Food is better than I remember it. It was full of flavour, perfectly seasoned and if I was you I'd book it for that next special occasion or a catch up with friends. The atmosphere was brilliant.

First time at Rumi and it did not disappoint. Food was exquisite, atmosphere elegant, and prompt, attentive service. Highlight of the meal was the cheese cigars and special mention to the Baklava Ice Cream sandwich which was luscious. We’ll be back.
