Zareh

Zareh sits on Smith Street in Collingwood, one of Melbourne's most vibrant and characterful inner-north suburbs. A much-loved restaurant, it's earned a strong reputation for its quality, flavour-packed cooking and good drinks — the kind of accomplished, characterful spot that's become a genuine favourite on the lively Smith Street strip.

The appeal is that combination of quality, flavourful food, a good drinks offering and a relaxed, characterful atmosphere in a prime Smith Street location, ideal for a relaxed dinner, a meal with friends, a date or a sociable night out. A restaurant that's nailed both its cooking and its atmosphere really stands out, and Zareh has clearly won over a loyal following.

With a 4.7 rating from more than 210 reviews, it's clearly delighting its diners. Menus, drinks lists, opening hours and pricing change with the seasons, and a popular restaurant fills up over weekends, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly where needed before you go — particularly for a weekend, a group or a table at a peak time in Collingwood.
