These guys are awesome... I was visiting my sister in Sydney Australia, all the way from Phoenix…read moreArizona, and have heated of these guys but never seen them, so they were in Lidcomb (I think) one weekend in June (freezing cold) and we went and saw them. They know how to put up a show. Lines were long and it was worth it. We get out order in and the guys are nice, friendly, with a huge smile and huge beards (just like me). They sing and dance and and bake our favorite middle eastern desert "knafeh". Now the food....I've never had Jerusalem style Knafeh, I've had of course the Armenian style called (ghadayef) also the Egyptian style which is called (basboosa) and the Jordanian and Lebanese style. I know some may say they're different but in many ways (to me) the idea is the same. This type of knafeh I had was a very good knafeh, for a food truck baking it fast, but it wasn't the best. Still we went back the next day, we got some more and their tea that they prepare omg is so good. Go for the dance, the atmosphere, the fun times, and also the knafeh. It's really good. Can't wait to come back to Sydney and Experience them again. May be they should come to Phoenix. #TheBeardedArmenian

Can we all agree that it's an outdoor family club that serves delicious dessert!?…read more I came here on a Saturday night, and holy what a scene! It was packed with people waiting in line, eating and simply there enjoying the music and entertainment. These long bearded men know how to throw a party. The music was loud, all the workers were dancing as well as the crowd that was around. This place attracted people from all ages with different diversities and backgrounds. It was something very different from what I've ever experienced, especially when there's only 3 things on the menu! 1 that's actually edible - their knafeh. The knafeh ...where do I begin. That sweeeet sweet cheese dessert!! It was almost like a more textured, creamier but lighter version of a creme brulee. It's a little sugar heavy so I would recommend sharing it with another person unless you have a major sweet tooth then you'll easily demolish this. It was simple and delicious - and to only have that on the menu they are definitely doing something right. If you haven't tried it - definitely go before they move to a different location! It's $8 you will not regret.

This weekend's crave was Persian cuisine! We spent the day in the northern suburbs and this place…read morewas right on our way back home. I don't think the location is ideal, but then again, I'm still getting to know Sydney and there may be more to do in the area than I know of... However, it was worth stopping by for a Persian feast! The place is not very big (although there is a second floor which I don't know if they use or not), but had no problem getting seated and ordering the food. The waiting time was a little long, but that was due to a massive order being taken for takeaway just before we got in. The chef came out halfway through to apologise to us, which was nice. We didn't mind as we were in no rush and were enjoying ourselves anyway. But then it came! The meal I was looking for, a big sharing Chelo Kabab which was very tasty and fulfilling. Particularly, I'm a big fan of the mince-meat from these restaurants. It was lovely. The waitresses were very nice and helpful too. I reckon we will pop round again if we are ever in the area

Absolutely delicious food, the service was amazing and it has a great vibe!…read more The only negative I would say is the Woonona restaurant's service is a little slow, even if they aren't busy the waitresses leave you waiting far to long to order food and drinks - (you have to give them that awkward stare for quite a while before they'll realise and serve you). Other than that, the food is impeccable, it's one of my favourite restaurants!

Stuck in Penrith by Sea for four days, this place was one of the few good things…read more Lebanese Middle Eastern food with fresh authentic flavours. Had the Kebbeh one day and a spiced marinated chicken wrap on another. Each was really good and the service and the setting were great. Proper lemon, sumac type flavours and a cut above the usual straight forward faux mid eastern fare.

Iraqi food? In Sydney? Yep there sure is…read more I can't say enough good things about this place. The owner will always greet you with a smile, a rarity in most places nowadays. The food can be simply described as simple and extremely tasty. My go-to dish here is always the mix plate which consists of kebab, tika and chicken tika (a plate is enough to share for two), all meats grilled over a coal barbeque and complimentary salad/pickles and of course Iraqi bread (which is similar to Lebanese bread but a bit thicker and more filling). I love eating the meat with the delicious Middle Eastern chilli sauce that's provided as a condiment on every table. I can't fault this place, every time I go I'm never disappointed. One of Western Sydney's highlights.

After reading some great reviews of this restaurant I decided to try it out…read more We walked in and pretty much were ignored til I asked shall we sit anywhere? To which I got a nod. After about 5 mins someone came and pretty much threw menus at us, ok, so my sense of feeling like i was being judged might have been accurate. A man, I think the owner then came to take our order, i ordered the bread stew a combination tika plate and I wanted to order a shish kebab plate but the owner abruptly told me NO, you have too much food. Ok so we wont have the shish kebabs can we have some rice. To which he relented and said ok, and quickly left without asking if we wanted drinks, he did seem very distracted, we got up and got our own drinks from the fridge. The food came out pretty fast, and now I can see why this place had such good reviews. The lamb shanks were so tender and flavorful as were the chicken and lamb tika, the waiter was correct in saying we had enough food as we couldnt finish it. I have never had iraqi cuisine before but I would say this place is pretty authentic. I feel like they dont have to be overly nice to customers because the food speaks for itself, or maybe it's just their way and custom, I did note that there were no females working there, just cranky men.

Set in the heart of Lakemba, where for a second you might think you're actually in the backstreets of down town Beirut, this well presented and clean restaurant is always ready to please. Lebanese cuisine is the menu and the garlic chicken is to die for. I always get the mixed sish plate which comes with different kinds of meat, dips, tabbouleh and some pickles. I never finish it, the value is great and you can't go past their chips with garlic sauce!! Truly a little gem which Often has people who you can tell would never set foot in Lakemba were it not for this restaurant.
