Why it's worth checking out
NOMAD sits on Flinders Lane in the heart of the Melbourne CBD, on one of the city's most celebrated dining laneways. An acclaimed restaurant — the Melbourne home of the renowned Sydney original — it's become a genuine destination, known for its Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-influenced cooking, house-made charcuterie and breads, an excellent wine list and a stylish, buzzing setting.
The appeal is that combination of accomplished, share-style Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking, an excellent wine offering and a vibrant, characterful setting on the famous Flinders Lane, ideal for a special dinner, a group meal or a sociable night out. Its acclaim and quality make it a standout of the Melbourne dining scene, the kind of restaurant people plan ahead for.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,300 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, wine lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a sought-after, acclaimed restaurant books out, so it's well worth checking current details and reserving a table directly well ahead — particularly for a special occasion, a group, or a table at a peak time on Flinders Lane.
