El Jannah Newtown Reviews

Probably some of the best chicken I’ve ever had since 1983, this place had a very modern atmosphere upbeat staff upbeat music yet I love the contrast that it was old school recipes with an old school atmosphere. The food here was absolutely insane. The chicken is fantastic. The burgers are better However you must try their garlic sauce. It is probably the only time I’ve ever gone back to seconds and garlic definitely will come back. Definitely will return some of the best chicken in Sydney.

From East to West, North to South I’ve always been El Junnahs No. 1. Fan.
I recently had a menu concern-
Love from Customer Service attended to this concern promptly and professionally. Highly recommend Crows Nest and all their restaurants Australia wide .

Love El Jannah, I remember going to Granville for my first taste and I was hooked. So glad they have it close to home. Simply delicious!!!

Delicious food - highly recommended! We got the wrap family deal which came with chips and drinks for under $20 per person. Made the authentic Lebanese way. 5 stars from a picky Lebanese lady- you won’t go wrong ✅

Came by on what appeared to be quite a busy night, but the service and speed of their preparation shocked me (in a good way). Quarter chicken and chips combo in and out in what I could judge to be only 4 minutes! Incredibly efficient service 👍🏾

Dined today. March 16,2025 Sunday.
I want to commend the service team. The guy on the counter was nice; and especially the one who runs the food. They are both accomodating and they really provided a good service and exceeded our expectations.

I ordered some delivery for my daughter and friends which was delivered on time but it was the wrong order.

On my way home I stopped at the restaurant in crows nest to point this out. The team and Manager at the restaurant were outstanding and amazing . I was only after some items that I ordered that were missing from the wrong order but the restaurant provided a whole order to me within a couple of minutes for which I am very grateful.

Five star outstanding service to fix up the error by the delivery partner.

Well done!
Food amazing.

Super tasty chicken, maybe the best chicken I've eaten

Big thank you to El Jannah Crows Nest. I ordered for the family dinner pick up via the website (Sat 22nd Feb) and when I turned up, I had made a pretty big mistake with my ordered.
The manager fixed it for me without hesitation, took care of everything.
Really appreciate it. Thanks again.

I am a total convert! Used to go for Chargrill Charlie exclusively but El Jannah chicken tastes WAYYYYY better and I personally
prefer their side dish options over CC options. I wish they’d open one near me (Bondi Junction **nudge nudge**).
