Kismet Meze Bar This Week’s Menu $69pp

Our vision is to become Australia’s most authentic Turkish mezze bar, celebrating the simple dishes that have brought families and friends together for generations. Through seasonal menus, warm hospitality, candlelit tables and the traditions of Anatolian home cooking, we create experiences that are nostalgic, generous and deeply human.

Kismet is not about fine dining. It is about soulful dining. A place where every meal tells a story, every table becomes a gathering, and every visit feels as though it was meant to happen.

This is what he was talking about Turkish cuisine .

I love kebabs and dips as much as anyone, but Turkish cuisine is far more than that. It’s a diverse, layered food culture filled with forgotten recipes, regional treasures, and centuries of history.

Behind Tulum, our sister space has quietly become a favourite among locals. With intimate candlelit tables, a warm atmosphere, and an Istanbul tavern-inspired sharing menu that changes weekly, it offers a dining experience that feels both relaxed and special.

Hidden just behind Tulum, Kismet is our small candlelit space inspired by the old tavernas of Istanbul — intimate, romantic and built for long nights of food, wine and conversation.
