What Makes Saros Bar & Restaurant the Best Wine Bar in Moonee Ponds

Locals itching to get out of the house and back to a semblance of normal will experience exceptional service and enjoy delicious food complemented by a carefully selected beverage list. 


“A beautiful restaurant and bar deserves food to match,” said Head Chef Jared Stafford. With twenty years of experience cooking in Melbourne, I am excited to share a modern Mediterranean cuisine that showcases classical technique and highlights the wonderful produce of Victoria and Australia.


The atmosphere of Saros Bar & Dining.

The interior of the bar is beautiful, spacious, and industrial-chic, but the amazing food and incredible wine are what really make this spot a destination. They also provide a huge selection of draft beers as well as a nice selection of bottles of wine. They also have a great selection of cheese.

The Flavor

The chef and his team have created the perfect selection of flavors to enjoy. Whether it’s dessert as part of a 3-course meal at or simply an indulgent sweet to accompany a drink at the bar, your taste buds will be thoroughly spoilt at Saros Bar & Dining.


Where To Get Hooked

The flat breads are off-menu and are served with an array of sauces, creams, and spreads. Try the goat cheese and soft egg combo or the cauliflower and blackberry cheese. The flat breads are also the best part of the Bison Chik’n Burger we ordered, which came with the flat bread option. Both the flat bread and the Bison chik'n are to die for.


Going Out

The bar is also the perfect place to grab a large pizza and a bottle of wine for dinner. To make it even better, they have a liquor license, so you can take it home with you.


The Smoke

There is undoubtedly a flavor to the smoke that the cheese does a great job of masking. There is no reason to complain about the smoke. It’s what gives the cheese its umami flavor. The pizza itself is a really simple, high-quality dish.


The Menu

The menu has been carefully created and designed to please any palate with a variety of earthy, full-bodied, fresh Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Options include vegan, vegetarian, gluten, and dairy free and a full kids and sharing menu. Distinctive flavors include house smoked, cured, infused, marinated, and charred delights.


The Drink 

Saros Bar & Dining Restaurant offers a fine selection of wines, spirits, and cocktails to suit everyone’s taste and occasion. The international wine list has been hand selected to complement the seasonal flavors on the menu. Choose from our extensive selection of spirits, including scotch whiskies, gins, vodkas, and an extensive range of liqueurs. Cocktails and apéritifs are our specialty, with a range of classic and signature cocktails.


The price

Good food and wine at reasonable prices. If you eat in, you might find it hard to make a dent in the menu!


The service

Fast, friendly, and professional. Not to mention, their wine selection is also impressive and reasonably priced. The staff are very knowledgeable and passionate about their wines. They make a point of walking the patrons through the wine, so they can ask all their wine-related questions.


The Location

Located on the ground floor of The Sebel Melbourne, Moonee Ponds. Our guests experience a European inspired, tapas and wine menu that promotes socializing and atmosphere. Conveniently located in Melbourne’s inner North-West, Saros Bar & Dining is just a short distance from the CBD.

The Verdict

Put it on your must-try list and be prepared to go in hungry! It is definitely a stop you will want to make if you are looking for a great wine bar in Moonee Ponds.


Overall Impressions

This is a perfect spot to have a drink, have a meal, and browse the wines. It’s fun, friendly, and very inviting. This place makes one feel like they are taking part in some sort of wine fest, like a real wine snob, but if you are unfamiliar with wine, you will be able to go around and sample the wines. The amount of wine by the glass is really impressive for Moonee Ponds.

If you’re looking for a hidden gem, this is it.
