El Jannah Ballarat Opening Day

Ballarat, the wait is over! 🎉 The legends of charcoal chicken have officially landed, and we’re bringing the flavour like only El Jannah can. From our iconic garlic sauce to juicy, charcoal-grilled chicken, it’s time to experience the feast you’ve been craving. Come find us at 620 Creswick Rd, Soldiers Hill VIC 3350, grab your crew, and taste what all the hype is about.

What Is Charcoal Chicken?

Our Lebanese charcoal chicken has been a game-changer in Australia since 1998. Cooked over open charcoal, it boasts an irresistible smoky flavour that keeps our fans coming back for more.

From our signature tawouk to our famous family feasts, every dish is a tribute to our Lebanese heritage. Slow-cooked, perfectly spiced, and served with our legendary garlic sauce – that’s the El Jannah way.

The Best Charcoal Chicken in Ballarat

Our legendary Ballarat charcoal chicken is the best in the area for a few simple reasons.

First, we never overcomplicate our recipes – El Jannah’s dishes instead focus on using real, high-quality ingredients. We also charcoal grill our food slowly, letting the chicken stay juicy and tender.

However, what really makes our chicken shop in Ballarat special is our traditional Lebanese marinade. This lets us bring out more vibrant flavours in every piece of chicken we cook, giving your tastebuds a real taste of Beirut.

What Makes our Fried Chicken in Ballarat So Crispy

Even without charcoaling, our Ballarat fried chicken is a true Lebanese delight.

From wings, to tenders, to burgers, to our classic EJ bites, every fried chicken dish we cook has a golden complexion that promises a perfect texture.

We hand-bread our chicken to give you a juicy – yet unmistakably crispy – crunch with every bite. When you’re after fried chicken in Ballarat, our crispy dishes are a treat for all five senses.

El Jannah Ballarat Reviews

Syed Umair Hassan
Been here a fair few times, always great service, always perfect food.
Waqas Ahmed
Drove from Geelong. Food was fresh and tasty.
Aqib Shabbir
After a long long time finally got what I have been looking for. I can't fault them anywhere. Great ambiance, nice seating and above of all, best food. Their chicken (both crispy and charcoal) is absolutely delicious. Hummus, garlic sauce, pickle, salad and literally everything was not only just delicious but quite a lot in serving.
Martin Quinn
Celebrated Father’s Day at El Jannah and the whole family left happy. The food was generous and full of flavor, especially the charcoal chicken, and the staff were attentive without being overbearing. It felt relaxed, enjoyable, and perfect for the occasion.

Visited El Jannah today and was blown away. The chicken was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better.
Sajjad Ahmad
“An absolute culinary revelation!
This establishment is not merely a chicken shop — it is a sanctuary for the discerning palate. The chicken emerges from the kitchen with a symphony of flavors: impeccably seasoned, succulently tender, and imbued with that elusive harmony between crispness and juiciness.

The ambience is unpretentious yet welcoming, allowing the food itself to take center stage. The staff exude warmth and attentiveness, elevating the entire experience from a simple meal to a memorable occasion.

If gastronomy were poetry, this place would be its finest stanza. A triumphant testament to how even the humblest of dishes, when prepared with passion and precision, can transcend the ordinary and touch the extraordinary.”

Always seeking halal food around the ballarat. And the food here was top-notch. I'd visit it again with my family next time. The guy named Ysama was very friendly and welcoming. Loved the service. Thanks El Jannah
