Why it's worth checking out
Mamao sits on Queen Street in the heart of the Melbourne CBD. A Brazilian restaurant, it brings the vibrant, flavour-packed traditions of Brazilian cooking to the city — the kind of warm, lively spot, with bold flavours and a festive atmosphere, that's become a genuine favourite for something a little different in central Melbourne.
The appeal is that combination of quality, authentic Brazilian food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, welcoming setting in a convenient city-centre location, ideal for a casual dinner, a group meal or a satisfying, flavour-packed feed. Authentic Brazilian cooking offers a genuine point of difference, and Mamao has clearly won over a big, loyal crowd in the city.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,300 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, opening hours and pricing change, and a popular city restaurant fills up at peak times and on weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly before you go — particularly if you're dining with a group, after a table at a busy time, or keen for a flavour-packed Brazilian feed in the city.
