If youre looking for authentic middle eastern groceries, I think this is your place. Full disclosure: Im not middle eastern, and not knowledgeable on their groceries. But I lacked variety for my Easter dinner, and Cedars was open on Easter Sunday. Very friendly proprietor answered all of my questions. Bottom line, I got to sample new foods Ive never had before, including a potato filled bread which was very good (though quite spicy) and chick peas in a hard candied nougat that were really tasty. Another sweet dish was similar to baklava except made with crushed coconut. Honestly I like it better than baklava. The proprietor thanked me graciously and wished me a Happy Easter, and I thanked him for being open on what looked like a slow Sunday. Melbourne needs to support small indie businesses like this.

I went in the other night just to look around, see what this store offered.I was pleasantly surprised at how much of a selection he had. I picked up an assortment box of Baklava and some chips both were so good. The owner is so amazing! Really nice guy, so helpful and even gave me two nougat treats for free to try.I will be back.
Very customer oriented store! I was trying to make traditional dishes my grandma use to make and he helped me with ingredients that I needed.
Excellent and authentic ethnic offerings. Fair prices and quality foods.
I always get my grape leaves there. Pita bread is also fresh and delicious. Lots of goodies
Do you have halal meat?
Good quality food and prdoucts.
The owner is very friendly we are satisfied with his products
Never imagined a gem like this would exist so close to home! The owner (wish I remembered his name) is super-friendly and is happy to give recommendations. He has a complete and, most strikingly, FRESH selection of genuine items - the best fresh pitas and meat pies, and the whole range of olives, grape leaves, dates, even turkish delights and organic cheese spread. Anyone would benefit from making a visit.

I love this place for my Mediterranean groceries. Theres a good variety with decent prices.

Love this place. Learning what I like. Kinda exotic for an old Florida boy. Always ask for suggestions.
Delicious fresh HEALTHY food and to our delight fabulous Lebanese flavors were everywhere. The help we asked for came with a smile each and every time. A wonderful green Apple drink called Miranda was such a nice healthy surprise as we devoured the Spinach pies before driving away lol Mmmm
