With everything from street food-style pita pockets to gourmet sandwiches to heaving plates of dips, balls, breads and salads, I can't imagine anyone not finding something that grills their haloumi within these hallowed walls. As for me? I stuck with the street food style. My "Algerian" was roasted capsicum falafel balls, tabouli, green chilli, red chilli, chickpeas, eggplant, pickles, tahini & hummus. AKA: yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum.

Gimma a pita as big as a baseball mitt and jam that guy fill of golden falafels fresh from the deep-fryer, stuff it with all kindsa colourful pickles and creamy sauces, get a dirty great ladle and spoon in as much chilli sauce as it can hold before disintegrating in a spicy flood. Sabbaba has a veritable crap-ton of options to choose from, all named after different middle-eastern and Arabic countries. My go-to is the Algerian, jacked with harissa. Or hey, go off-piste and build your own.

The atmosphere is nice, it is very much like what a sweets cafe looks like in Lebanon before all the craziness. It's clean spacious and will set out. How ever it does look a tiny bit like my living room furniture wise, but that just adds to the relaxed feel of the place where you can enjoy amazing Lebanese desserts and some of the best coffee that I have had in a long time. The service was fast and friendly with the waitresses joking around with us when trying to speak broken Arabic to them. They cleaned up nice and quick and were very polite and helpful in every other way. I would not hesitate going back, I would recommend to sit back relax and enjoy the desserts and coffee and even take some home with you. Lady's arm and sweet cheese are my favs. Steer away from the typical baklava that you're use to and try something new! It's all good!!

The meat is tender and juicy the dips are well balanced, at least for me and the salads according to my wife are pretty good. The kids menu can use a bit of a lift and I would like a specials menu, something different like seafood maybe prepared still the way they cook. Service is a bit of a problem, lots of staff but sometimes nobody around when you need them but still they are friendly. With the exception of the manager that finds it hard to crack a smile, I tried to nod and smile to him a few times but got ice in return. Still it's a great place with nice food especially for meat lovers like me Thumbs up.

Over the past 8 months I've visited Sydney 4x and stay in CBD. Obviously there are numerous…read morerestaurants in the CBD but on my last night I wanted to experience a local neighborhood. After a few searches I decide upon Balmain, a suburb of Sydney, directly across the harbor. Balmain like most areas around the harbor have an interesting history - look it up. Back to the meal - the tenderest chicken kabob ever! So good, I decided to take the last portion back to my hotel. The appetizer- Arnabeet was fantastic. If you like this cuisine - make the short trip by land or water taxi. The only reason it's not 5 star - they served me Sprite instead of lemonade- forget that - 5 stars - I should have asked for another drink. I'll return for lunch in near future and take fotos when I have more ambient light. Kudos to the chef!

We ordered pretty much everything on the menu. Chicken, fries, extra garlic sauce (toum.. twice), tabouleh, fattouch, a kafts sando, and more chicken. The char-grilled chicken was cooked to perfection. Juicy, flavorful and smokey, just how we like it. The tabbouleh needed a bit of extra lemon squeezes but really hit the spot. Fries - superb. Extra thick and crunchy which is how I like mine thankfully.. other Lebos like them thin and lanky. The kafta needed some more moisture, but was good. Get a side of the pickles to pair sour with salty along the way. I'm salivating just writing this. I wish SO badly that they would open up a store in San Francisco. Owners- if you're reading this, and interested in making you're way to the US, I will personally back you :p Yallah Service was fantastic. It was freezing in their 2nd dining area and they promptly turned it the AC down after we asked. Everything was clean, very friendly staff. A must for a quick meal in Sydney.
