El Jannah

The verdict

What started as a small takeout shop, El Jannah has flourished into a Sydney institution, famed for its delectable charcoal chicken and tasty Lebanese offerings. Its Granville outpost is constantly bustling with hungry patrons, and although the menu is simple, it offers some of the best comfort food in town—think shredded beef shawarma, falafel skewers and whole charcoaled birds.
