Our story: From family feasts to Melbourne's table

Welcome to Safari & Spice, where every dish tells a story. Discover the passion, the inspiration, and the journey that brought the vibrant flavours of Africa to the heart of Melbourne.

Our journey began with "Safari & Spice"

It all started with "Safari & Spice", a dream of home-cooked meals for family get-togethers. What began as hosting dinner parties for friends and family, sharing laughter and good times, has blossomed into a passion for African cuisine. We wanted to share that same warmth and connection with everyone in Melbourne, turning our beloved family tradition into a vibrant restaurant experience. 

Experience the heart of Africa

When you walk into Safari & Spice, we want you to feel a sense of joy and excitement. Our goal is to create a fun, family-friendly atmosphere where everyone feels welcome to try something new. It's more than just a meal; it's an adventure for your taste buds and a celebration of culture. Come and discover the vibrant spirit of Africa right here in Melbourne.

A world of flavour on your plate

What makes our food truly special is our passion for learning and experimenting with flavours from another culture. We take immense pride in crafting dishes that are authentic yet innovative, bringing together diverse influences from across the African continent. Every dish at Taste of Africa is a testament to our dedication to quality, tradition, and the pure joy of culinary exploration.

"A feast worthy of a Mad Max adventure — except the only thing racing here is my appetite! Safari & Spice took me on a flavour journey across Africa, and I’m already planning my return trip."
