History
Our Story
MIRZA FOOD & WINE is the brainchild of Chef AJ, fondly known as The Curry King of Melbourne. He traded the hustle of five-star hotel kitchens in India and the creative energy of Melbourne’s iconic Horn Please for the thrill of crafting something entirely his own — a warm, flavour-packed dining experience where tradition meets innovation.
Here, every dish tells a story — of spice markets and street stalls, of late-night experiments and family recipes perfected over decades. The menu is a bold celebration of Indian flavours, reimagined through Chef AJ’s playful, modern lens. From smoky tandoori bites and rich curries to inventive small plates that pair perfectly with a glass of local wine, MIRZA FOOD & WINE promises a culinary journey that’s both nostalgic and new.
