Armenian cuisine is as ancient as the history of Armenia. It reflects the history and geography where Armenians have lived as well as incorporating its outside influences. Various spices, vegetables, meats, fish & fruits combine to create unique flavours and aromas. Opening in late November, 2013 by the crew behind The Black Toro in Glen Waverley, SEZAR is a contemporary Armenian restaurant, bringing a fresh approach on traditional flavours to Melbourne. Our enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff are there to ensure you have an amazing experience guiding you through a new style of food, inventive cocktails and a well thought out wine list. SEZAR does take reservations but we do have tables available for walk-ins and limited seating available at the bar. We look forward to seeing you soon at SEZAR restaurant & bar.

Went on a Sat night for anniversary dinner. The service started off great & the starter and medium size plate were delicious as were our cocktails. As the night went on, our experience fell off a cliff .. the pork main course was average, the waitress told us it was ‘a very small piece of pork’ which it was for the price but it was also very tough & lacked flavour. A glass of wine for dinner took a long time & a second never arrived and we had to ask for it to be taken off the bill. We were glad we had an entertainment book voucher - would only go again if lunch special and stick to small plates, avoiding main dishes!

Great night out with our daughters. It was good to get the tasting menu so we got to try things that we may not have chosen. Lovely waiter who was attentive without being OTT. My hearing is not great so I was pleased to be seated upstairs where I could hear all the conversation. BTW the food was amazing!!

The express lunch was plentiful and of excellent quality. The two courses were generous as was the accompanying glass of wine. Staff attentive and amiable and I would definitely patronise Sezar again. My one criticism was the high charge for the free-flow sparkling water which at $10 per head I thought excessive as it was not even bottled.

Service was without a smile! A bit disappointed compared to our last visit- it was the first booking we made for our weekend.

Staff was a bit slow and non descriptive of the food options. The 3 course meal was good- but some food was room temperature, the pork main was very fatty. (Perhaps this is a pork belly) but we had no descriptions- they just dumped it off at the table and left! Friends advised it was excellent. It was very good, but for the price, I’ll likely try new places.
