Overview of Cupido

Cupido is mixture of the east and the west. Modern design that will strike you as you walk past on Lygon Street. Chandeliers that will sparkle your eyes, and food that will satisfy your appetite. Cupido has a menu of traditional Middle Eastern dishes, and live belly dancing shows on Friday and Saturday nights, not to mention the great smell of the water pipes (shisha) that you can enjoy after a meal right in the heart of Lygon Street, Carlton.

    4.5 Below Average

    Shish tawook was very good, hommos was just ok (too much tahini), fatoosh was good & unique. Major issue was the service. Dishes were served all at once, rather than courses. Also, it took very long to get food, and once it was dropped off, the table was forgotten. Instead, the apparent manager and wait staff tended to sit down, eat, and chat with friends that were visiting the restaurant. To pay & leave, we had to go up to the bar to settle the check.

    Cupido's was an amazing experience, not only did my friends and I enjoy the welcoming and friendly service, we were also breathe taken by the warm and culture filled atmosphere.

    I have many middle eastern friends, and they always tell me about their family dinners and the quantity and quality of food they serve, but always thought they were over exaggerating, until I experienced it myself. Not only did we receive our moneys worth, we were blown away by the taste and presentation of our meals. They offer a range on their menus, but we decided on mixed banquets, as we found it was a great way to taste everything.

    After our meals we were mesmerized, by the beautiful middle eastern music and exciting belly dancing performance, whilst enjoying coffee and baklava, and trying a Apple Tobacco Flavoured Shisha. A night I will definitely want to repeat again.

    I honestly recommend this restaurant to all people who are looking to try something new or to have a great time, and for families also, as they provide both a smoking and non smoking area. I can't wait to bring my friends here when the visit from interstate. Great Job Cupido's!
