Buba Shuk is absolutely delicious! I eat at Buba Shuk regularly because every meal is cooked to perfection. I took my parents there for the first time last night and even though they live far from Saint Kilda they said they will be taking their friends there and we will be celebrating birthdays and special events there in the future. The service is excellent. Highest of recommendations for a delicious and enjoyable night out.

The food here at Buba was amazing! We wanted pretty much everything from the menu and lucky for us they do an open table option where the chef picks an array of dishes for you to try. We loved every dish that was brought out. The food was so full of flavour. We definitely want to come back to this place. Such reasonable prices too!
