Bodrum Essendon

Great customer service, we were greeted warmly and food were quick to serve. Food and drinks were really good. We got the banquet menu which was a bit pricey for the portions that we received. The saganaki cut was a bit weird as we got like 1 and a half triangle for two? 😅 But overall, we enjoyed our first time trying a Mediterranean restaurant.

Had dinner here with family for the first time today & we all loved it. Great customer service, we were greeted very warmly. Lovely ambience. The food was delicious. The saganaki, calamari & fish dishes, the mushroom perfectly done. Had kunefe for the first time & it was 👌 We will definitely be back.

We had dinner in a really decent atmosphere. We thank Mr. Aydın for everything, he is very warm and smiling, and he made us feel like we were at home. The food is really delicious, the service is perfect, I can recommend it to everyone with peace of mind, you won't regret it. Thank you and greetings.

The food was tasty but it's like fine dining. Seafood platter of two but there's 3 of us. Rockling fish very nice, but salad just so so. The Saganaki grilled cheese on menu written" is to die for" was so so for me. Food portion very small. Ordered seafood platter, 1 salad, half dozen oysters, 3 cascade beer, 4 baklava = $160+ We agreed that portion just too small, dont think we'll be back to this place

Absolutely the best food in Melbourne we eat out all the time and nothing compares to this the tastes are true authentic and everything is always fresh and consistent and we are never ever disappointed..oh correction only when they have sold out of their delicious seafood platter or amazing unique calamari salad, we eat there at least twice a week its home cooked fresh food and affordable and the owners are the nicest people in the world love Bodrum xx

5 star cuisine and service. As soon as you step in you know you are going to have a delightful experience. We requested plates to share and it was delicious! We started with fresh pita and dips. Yum ! Fish, lamb and chicken were tender and melt in your mouth tender. Dessert was the best Künefe I have ever tasted. The service very professional and friendly. We will back again.

So fresh. So very more-ish. You must have the trio of dips. All made on premises.... the taste will astound you. We had lamb, chicken and fish dishes. I could not believe how tender and delightful each bite was. Exquisite cuisine. This restaurant is certainly a must to visit. The host and hostess (owners) really care and attend to each person like family. As you can tell "I'm really impressed, especially for a first visit". Well done. Can't wait to come back to Melbourne to eat, drink and enjoy your hospitality again.

Always a pleasure and a treat coming here! The service is incredible and the food certainly lives up to the hype. The meat and seafood platters are to die for. They come with so much food, it’s impossible not to feel full. The staff are incredibly friendly and make you feel welcome. If there’s one item you need to eat, it’s the cheese cigars!! Even they know they are my fave. I can’t wait to come back :)
