They are open for dinner, and late-night and they are a 100% halal restaurant, dine-in, delivery, group bookings, rooftop seating, serves alcohol, and takeaway takes reservations and is wheelchair accessible. They are open all days of the week.
But how did the Afghan Gallery come to be? In 1981, Fitzroy was a melting pot of cultures and uncle Aziz opened an art gallery. The very next year, Aunty Nouria transitioned the gallery into a restaurant, making Afghan Gallery the first Afghani restaurant in Australia and right here in Fitzroy. This is how Afghan Gallery transitioned from an art gallery to a place where people could indulge in the beauty of food. Thanks to the vision of Aunty Nouria, Australia was graced with its first-ever Afghani restaurant.
Almost four decades have passed since Aunty Nouria’s vision and a lot has changed, but one thing remains the same: their commitment to bringing authentic Afghan cuisine to the people of Melbourne. Their menu and hospitality reflect their family business; making sure that every guest feels welcome and comfortable, and they take pride in serving dishes that have been passed down through generations.
At Afghan Gallery, they are passionate about providing their customers with a unique dining experience that showcases the rich cultural heritage of Afghanistan. Their menu reflects this, offering a wide range of traditional dishes that will transport your taste buds straight to the heart of Afghanistan. From their warming soups, hearty curries, and dahls to eggplant dishes like the quorma-I-bodenjan, their menu is diverse and has something for everyone and will satisfy any palate.
