El Jannah (Bayswater North) Chicken Shop

I had an excellent experience trying this place for the first time. The food was outstanding, and I want to commend the staff, especially the wonderful lady at the counter. Despite being busy with tables, she took my order with a smile. I ordered the $5 chicken roll (promo), and it was both delicious and a great value. Keep up the fantastic work!

Ordered the chicken chips pita bread and dip. Thoroughly enjoyed the flavour and succulence of the chicken. I was worried that it may be too dry but my fears were unwarranted. Will be going back for this meal without hesitation.

Dined in had a beautiful roast chicken roll for only $5.

Great restaurant chicken nice chips are yummy loved it

I was intrigued when an El Jannah restaurant opened up near me, as I had never heard of it before. I went there to discover it’s a charcoal chicken of Lebanese style which is chicken typically marinated in a blend of spices, including garlic, lemon, and various herbs, cooked over char grill giving it a smoky aromatic taste.I wanted to try it how it comes el naturale… which is with a side of garlic sauce aka toum. In my initial experience, I found this garlic sauce overwhelming and rich and not complimentary. Whilst the chicken is unique and tasty, due to the cooking method it doesn’t have the moistness and juiciness to hold up with the richness and intensity of the garlic sauce which made it challenging to finish the meal as it becomes monotonous and overwhelming.On my return I experimented with a variety of sauces, BBQ, gravy, and sweet/spicy and I must say any one of the sauces combined with the standard meal elevates it to the next level. The addition of different sauces balanced out the intensity of the garlic sauce. The gravy I find quite uniquely flavoured and adds a savoury richness. While you do need to pay extra for sauce, you can add the BBQ sauce for just $1 extra but in my opinion, it needs this.I find the portion sizes quite good and there is no issue to request the breast piece if ordering a quarter chicken. I did sample a piece of fried chicken and it was very overly breaded and not that enjoyable so ill stick with the specialty which is the charcoal chicken. Something also needs to be said also for cleanliness as I have never found the tables to be cleared or wiped of crumbs and grease.Update Aug 2024Over time as I have become accustomed to the flavour of El Janna charcoal chicken I must say I have become somewhat addicted to it. I’m often craving the unique taste and it has become my regular. Also over time I think quality has improved, it is often much more moist than previously mentioned and can hold its own. It’s pretty much the only ‘takeaway’ that I eat now, I’m very happy to have El Jannah close by and I have upgraded my review rating ❤️

Best Chicken ever, full of favour, cooked to perfection, clean and enjoyable.Thankyou El - Jannah

WOW!!!!! Had no idea about this place just passing through and thought we'd try it.That chicken was AMAZING my husband and I loved it I think its the best charcoal chicken we've ever had so soft and juicy 😋We can't wait to go back and try more delicious items from the menu also prices are very good👍

Looking forward to trying more items on the menu. Fried chicken was fresh and succulent, I thought the crumb/batter was a bit heavy though. The gravy is AMAZING!

It's really tasty food. Love this place.

Highly underrated. Been here about 10 times now and have only had one mediocre visit due to the chicken being dry AF,! But it is way better than the chicken competition next door😉Highly recommend
