El Jannah Burwood Menu

Charcoal Chicken

If you’re a charcoal chicken lover, then you’ve landed on the right page. Through decades of cooking chicken on charcoal, we’ve perfected the process, delivering smoky, juicy, and authentic Lebanese, flame-grilled charcoal chicken that people across Australia can’t get enough of. Our on fire charcoal chicken is legendary for its taste and freshness, which is why our Charcoal Chicken Menu is so popular. Explore our range of charcoal chicken meals, and discover why so many people swear by us to solve their chicken cravings.

Boxes

When you’re looking for a convenient way to get the full El Jannah experience, you can’t go past our famous meal boxes. We’ve designed a variety of El Jannah meal boxes to showcase everything we do, from our crispy fried chicken box to our tender, juicy charcoal chicken box. We pack the boxes full of flavour (we’re proud of our generous portions), so you can enjoy our legendary chicken any time, anywhere.

Breakfast

What better way to start the day than with some authentic Lebanese breakfast? While we’re known for our legendary chicken, we’ve got a breakfast menu that’ll knock your socks off and wake you up, ready to face the day. We’ve designed El Jannah’s breakfast menu to fuel you up for the day ahead—whether you’re dining in, or chasing some breakfast takeaway, we’ve got you covered, habibi.

Burgers

We’re big believers in the power of a legendary burger, which is why we’ve spent years perfecting a pair of chicken burgers so good, you’ll want to hard launch them on your Instagram. Just make sure you mute your most annoying family members before you do; we know how much they love to ask questions. The freshness of our Crispy Chicken Burger speaks for itself, while its spicy sibling, the Grilled Chicken Burger, is renowned as one of the best chicken burgers in town. Treat yourself to one (or both), and get ready to fall in looooove.

Charcoal chicken without a fresh, traditional Lebanese salad, is like going to someone’s home without a gift. It just isn’t right. Our range of Lebanese salads, like our chicken salad, fattoush salad, and tabouli salad, are just as delicious as they are fun to say. Say fabulous fattoush six times fast, we dare you.

El Jannah Burwood Reviews

Steven Suh

Ordered catering and was impressed by the service by the guys at this shop. Very helpful, plenty of food and friendly. Great branch - great staff

Attila Bozzay

Best chargrilled chicken in Sydney! Very tasty, well cooked and the garlic dip is out of this world!

Lynne Lee

First visit to El Jannah. Ordered the Loaded Chicken meal. Too much for 2 people. The chicken was too dry for me. The hummus was good, the tabouleh was fresh, the chips with chicken salt was great. You get a good size tub of garlic sauce and an insane amount of Lebanese bread. There's plenty of tables. Staff are good at cleaning tables but not the seats. Service was ok and food came out pretty fast. Ended up taking the babaganoush and leftovers home.

Dee MAD

Just when almost gave up on EJ, I came on a weekday and the Chicken was perfect this round. Still pricey compared to yesteryear and pls bring back the chicken plates. Table service was slow and there were pigeons roaming the indoor seating area

joseph perri

I ate burger and chips. The food was nice and delicious. Good service. Keep up the great work.

Tony Stark

Good charcoal chicken, when I went it was still quite tender which is surprising as Ive been to the other El Jannah branches and dry chicken is common there. The garlic sauce ofcourse is the star of the dish, cant go wrong eating here when craving some charcoal chicken.

WM 1032
