Having dined at EJ's throughout Sydney, I enjoy the overall experience at the Burwood location the most. While the EJ in Lindfield has a better atmosphere, the overall quality of the food and consistently excellent customer service at Burwood is what I value the most. I always receive friendly service and the food comes out in a timely manner, especially during busy periods such as the dinner rush. I wanted to commend Justin and Isabella for their leadership of their staff. Looking forward to dining here again.

El Jannah at Burwood is the epitome of top tier sydney food! it is exceptionally well priced, with my meal only costing 22$, i believe it to be such great value. the flavour of the charcoal chicken is truly delicious, it is very well seasoned and coupled with the famous garlic sauce, was one of the best meals i’ve ever had. Not to mention the freshness and taste of the double charcoal chicken burger, which knocks other competitors such as Oporto out the park. Overall, i highly recommend El Jannah to anyone who enjoys Lebanese cuisine and is looking to grab a high quality fair priced meal.
