EatNourish

Nevedya is Food for the Spirit, an organic plant-focussed restaurant & cafe in the Dandenong Ranges outside Melbourne. We serve wholefood vegetarian and vegan world cuisine with flavours from India, Asia, the Middle East, Europe and beyond. Our ingredients are healthy, ethical, organic, seasonal and showcase produce from local farms and growers.

Many customers of Nevedya have said that their meal was the best experience of their life, so we can safely say that we are amongst some of the best food and restaurants in the Dandenong Ranges!

Run by husband and wife duo Daniel and Shakti, it is an experience to bring you back to your true self. The food is a cleansing experience of reconnecting to nourishment at its untainted roots.

All the food is designed and created by female head chef Shakti Iyer with intention to nurture, transform and heal.

Inspired by Indian restaurants, Ayurveda and our travels throughout the world expect to taste our famous Ayurvedic khichadi, Sri Lankan masala dosa, world fusion tapas, plant-based all day breakfasts and our amazing organic and healthy desserts!



  • Every dish was so intricate, so well-thought-out that it leaves many other organic experiences in the dust. The meals have been driven by intense thought, careful sourcing, decades of training, the types of things that cannot be achieved without massive cost to the chef. Food was was exceptional, food was impeccable, friendly and relaxing. An absolute stand out experience, in every way.

  • Mind blowing food experience and organic. ❤️✨ Depth of flavour is the best way I can describe the experience. From the Cacao to the Tapas to the lions mane and Ayurvedic Khichadi, to the cocktails.. People, decor, atmosphere, music, Nevedya is like stepping into a magic bubble in another place and and another time.. My new favourite place!! 💖💖💖

  • Outstanding on every level. We were a large group of 10 and most people had not eaten at Nevedya before. Every single person left raving about the nourishing food, chilled atmosphere and attentive staff. What a gift to share with my loved ones. Thank you Daniel, Shakti and staff. A very special day.
