WHAT TO EXPECT AT EL JANNAH CARRUM DOWNS
El Jannah’s charcoal chicken is marinated for a full 24 hours in a blend of traditional Lebanese spices, then grilled low and slow over real charcoal until the skin is golden and smoky and the meat is juicy all the way through. That’s how it’s been done since Granville in 1998. Nothing has changed.
At El Jannah Carrum Downs you’ll find a full Lebanese menu built around real ingredients and real technique:
Charcoal Chicken — whole, half, or quarter, always fresh off the grill, never reheated
Crispy Fried Chicken — golden, crunchy, packed with flavour in every bite
Burgers & Rolls — freshly made to order with El Jannah’s signature fillings
Lebanese Sides — fresh tabouli, house pickles, crispy coleslaw, golden chips
Dips — world-famous garlic sauce, hommus made from real chickpeas soaked overnight, smoky babaganouj from fire-roasted eggplant, plus sweet chilli, BBQ, and tomato sauce
Every item is made with high-quality, preservative-free ingredients delivered fresh seven days a week. Dine in, drive through, or grab takeaway — El Jannah Carrum Downs is built for the Frankston-Dandenong community.
El Jannah Carrum Downs – On Frankston-Dandenong Road, Built for a Growing Community
Carrum Downs is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in Melbourne’s south-east — a community of young families who deserve a legendary local, not just another drive-through option.
El Jannah has never been about the fit-out. Since the original Granville store opened in 1998, the queue has always done the talking. Carrum Downs is a suburb on the move, and it’s exactly the kind of place El Jannah belongs — easy to get to, easy to feed the family, and worth the drive from Skye, Sandhurst, Seaford, Frankston North, or Langwarrin.
Real Lebanese Food, No Shortcuts — The El Jannah Promise
Lebanese cuisine is one of the oldest food cultures in the world, built on freshness, fire, and generations of tradition. At El Jannah, we’ve honoured that since 1998.
Our hommus is made from real chickpeas soaked overnight, not spooned from a commercial tub. Our babaganouj starts with eggplant roasted over an open flame. Our garlic sauce is made fresh every single day. No preservatives. No shortcuts. No compromises. That’s the standard at every El Jannah store — and it’s the standard coming to Carrum Downs.
