Carlton locals head to MIXITY for honest Persian grills, Iranian street-style pizza, and heated sidewalk hangs. Skewers come hot off the coals—juicy lamb, koobideh, and saffron-marinated chicken paired with fluffy rice and grilled tomatoes.

Evenings spill out into the heated outdoor seats over bowls of shisha and pots of steaming saffron tea.

Why Choose MIXITY Restaurant and Cafe
Why diners choose MIXITY on Lygon Street for authentic grills, Persian pizza, and shisha.
Authentic Charcoal Kebabs & Fragrant Rice
Charcoal-grilled meats and seasoned rice dishes deliver authentic Iranian dining right in Carlton.
The rice was fluffy, the kebabs were juicy, and everything was well seasoned.
Yalda Ghaffar Consistently Perfected Persian Grills
Guests consistently praise traditional skewers like koobideh, chicken, and barg as standout executions in Melbourne.
The koobideh, chicken and barg which I always order have consistently been made to perfection and are unlike any other kebab I've tasted in Melbourne
Hanin Crispy Iranian-Style Persian Pizza
A distinct Iranian casual comfort offering featuring crispy crusts and generous toppings alongside classic grills.
We also tried the pizza and it was surprisingly amazing — crispy base, generous toppings, and full of flavour.
Yalda Ghaffar Dual Menu of Grills and Pizza
Mixity pairs classic Persian kebabs with Persian Makhsoos pizza for a unique hybrid dining experience.
If you like persian kebabs, this is a very nice place. I also really love the persian Pizza (Makhsoos).
East Kazz Relaxing Shisha & Hot Persian Tea
Guests can unwind with smooth shisha and freshly brewed hot tea during relaxed evening outings.
Had a very well prepared Shisha and a lovely hot tea on a winter evening.
Subhra Sekhar Kar Vibrant Weekend Lounge Ambiance
A dedicated weekend haven pairing tea, shisha service, and a welcoming cafe atmosphere.
Me and my friend come to Mixity every weekend for shisha and tea — and it never disappoints! The vibe is always relaxing, the service is top-notch, and the shisha is the best in town.

The koobedeh kebab with rice and safron tea was just amazing.
Juraj Kukan Jujeh Kebab
It's one of the very few places left that knows how to cook a jujeh (chicken) kebab the authentic way using breast chicken and not cheap thigh meat like most other Persian restaurants.
