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.
Feast on our range of fried chicken at El Jannah. Enjoy our crispy Tenders and Mixed Pieces, cooked to perfection for that unbeatable crunch. Visit one of our charcoal chicken restaurants or order online today.
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.
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.
Need something delicious you can eat on the go? Say no more, habibi. Our range of authentic Lebanese rolls will fill you up and keep you moving. From our delicious chicken rolls, including our legendary charcoal chicken roll, our vegetarian-friendly falafel roll, and our Aussie-inspired hot chip roll, we’ll fix your cravings so you can roll on to the rest of your day.

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.
We heard your tummy start to rumble just then … which means it’s time to get the best charcoal chicken in town. But charcoal chicken without some seriously tasty sides is only half the fun — and we’ve got the best sides for chicken. We’re no one-trick ponies. Our signature sides and Lebanese dips range features bold flavours, with options like our universally beloved garlic sauce, crispy chips that’ll make your mouth water, and our hommous dip, which is so good, you’ll never want store bought again.
El Jannah Mitcham Opening Day
The day was made extraordinary by the incredible Mitcham community! Thanks for sharing in our excitement, and we can’t wait to see you all again! For those of you who haven’t come by, we’re serving up the juiciest chicken & maddest feeds every day!
The Best Charcoal Chicken in Mitcham
Here at El Jannah, we don’t just throw some chicken on a grill and plate it up a handful of minutes later. That’s not how we do things. Nah, we slow-cook everything to really lock in those flavours. Every bite is a perfect balance of flavour, texture, and that unbeatable char. When you’re at El Jannah, you’re not just eating chicken, you’re experiencing a flavour explosion that’s been perfected over 30 years. This isn’t just charcoal chicken in Mitcham. This is the best charcoal chicken in Mitcham. Simple as that.
What Makes our Fried Chicken in Mitcham So Crispy
So, what makes El Jannah’s fried chicken in Mitcham the crispiest, juiciest, and most irresistible around? Want to know the secret? Well okay, but don’t tell anyone. The secret is … we … Cook it! Crazy right? No, really, hear us out for a sec. Too many chicken shops do a rush job when it comes to frying their chicken and then what you end up with is some oil-drenched, soggy sad excuse for a chicken tender. You’re coming home from the club and the only thing you want is something crunchy and that’s what you get? No. We won’t stand for it.
Here at El Jannah, we don’t do anything half-hearted. Each piece of chicken is carefully coated with our special blend of spices and hand-breaded to create that perfect crispy crunch that’s impossible to resist. There will be no tears over soggy tenders for you. We promise.

We came in for dinner, first time here and the staff were really friendly and the food was delicious. Would recommend
Mark Rocque
First time here and the hype is deserved. Great chicken burger and fries.
Will come back again. Weirdly the dining area was almost empty with most people opting to take in or Uber.

We ordered Charcoal Chicken, Charcoal Chicken Roll. Chicken roll was awesome with tender chicken pieces and the pickle were very good. Charcoal chicken we ordered 2 breast and 2 thigh cuts. The breast pieces were a bit dry and it didn't have much charcoal flavour. The garlic sauce that came with the fries was good. We tried order using app from Mitcham store, but it was closed for app orders from 5PM onwards, which was very disappointing. So we have to go to the store and they were not very keen to take the order saying that it will take minimum 30 minutes. But we placed the order and got it anyway.

Never disappointed at El Jannah. The food is consistently great and the service is top-tier. Nate was especially friendly and made the visit even better. Will definitely be back.
Alexander Flesser
My experience at this El Jannah establishment was truly amazing, I was served by this kind young man named Nate, who proved me with excellent service and really made me feel at home. To call the food good would be an understatement, biting into my fried chicken burger felt like I was tasting heaven in my mouth, they really are living up to the name El Jannah which means heaven in Arabic. I am looking forward to my next visit.
Trudi Wilson
