hawa charcoal chicken

i prefercharcoalchicken from hawa as everything is delicious. their chicken has a greatcharcoalflavour without dryness and the garlic sauce packs the right amount of kick! i find the service here good as well.

they have a massive space and is probably one of my go-to places forcharcoalchicken.

everything else goes well but the garlic sauce is alright. really love coming here forcharcoalchicken now. chicken is always moist and pickles aren’t too salty. chicken mix platter is good if you want all chicken, pickles, tabouli, dips and falafel in one plate. service is decent but always requires some waiting time for food to come out

i considercharcoalchicken to be one of the worlds greatest creations and hot chips to be their royal descendent. these two things combined with garlic sauce and pickles, are all i need to live happily ever after in my kingdom. hawa is without a doubt the bestcharcoalchicken in sydney and dare i say, australia. a former el jannah lover, i was unfaithful, turned to hawa in my time of need and have never looked back. we're now living in a joyous garlic fueled matrimony.

one of the greatest, most satisfying, and affordable meals you will ever enjoy.

they serve the bestcharcoalchicken in sydney. have tried many other places but nothing comes close to this. even the falafel is a must try. the chicken mixed platter is my favourite.

good food. the mixedcharcoalchicken plate is a must. definitely giving el j a run for it's money. one of the best falafels i've had is from this great place .

i love a goodcharcoalchicken and upon driving past hawa it appears half of granville are too. we arrived early at around 5pm on a sunday and the queue was out the door already. i was excited at the fact i had finally found a chicken shop in sydney which generate the buzz of these shops growing up. 

after finding a park a block away we made our way down to the front of the shop and straight to the back of the queue. this gave us time to decide what we wanted. we ordered the hawa 1/2 chicken and chips deal ($16.95) dine in ($11.95) take away. we also ordered the hawa 1/4 chicken mixed platter ($16.95) dine in (cheaper take-away).

yes, the premium for dining in was big but sort of worth it when you're driving 30 minutes to get there and faced with a queue at the front of the shop. we sat at a table near front but realised there was a much larger dining area which took up two other shop spaces. 

the chicken really givescharcoalchicken it's meaning with a beautifully smoky flavour and unapologetically charred skin while the meat retained moisture. the famous garlic sauce was the perfect accompaniment.

and yes naomi the drive was worth it!

greatcharcoalchicken and chips for a great price. love love love the garlic sauce. decent servings, couldn't even stomach the 1/4 chicken and chips.

hawa chicken is by far the bestcharcoalchicken compared to any of the other locals. there chicken is tender and perfectly seasoned. there prices are great and menu is broad for your preference of what you feel like having. i typically have the chicken wrap with everything in it and that’s my ultimate favourite, i did try the quarter chicken last time i was in (bit messy but you can alter what you want to eat with those dishes) because it comes with assorted pickles, garlic sauce, bread etc.

seating is fine as there is so many to choose from and they are very quick in serving your order.
parking is also not a problem as there is the council parking or street parking.

overall this place does deserve a 5 out of 5!

hawa is my person favourite when it comes tocharcoalchicken - they are very consistent with the quality and taste of their food and i have never been let down. i do find them to be slightly cheaper than the highly rated el jannahs - in my experience they serve juicer chicken too! i think hawa deserves more attention.

i’ve been to thischarcoalchicken place many times. every time i’ve been to this place it has been a fairly good experience. thecharcoalchicken was nice, chips was nice, good amount of garlic sauce and sides. today’s experience was terrible though and that’s why i give it a 3. the chicken did not have any charcoal, tasted off and looked undercooked. the chips came out quite late compared to the chicken, and i like to eat both at the same time. the coke was also warm. the chips and coke i can forgive, but the taste of that chicken is the reason i wrote this review. management please note the date and time of this review because something today was so off.

i had heard this place was good so we tried it. now we have eaten at heaps of middle eastern places. so many in fact i have not reviewed them. we ordered the mixed plate and a single plate. i liked the chicken but my preference is extracharcoallike. my friend liked the lamb and mince lamb. although we liked them they were not our favourites. the rest of the plate i didn't like. especially the baba ganoush. i think it's my least favourite. the garlic sauce was not great either. the plate just lacked flavour and maybe lemon. also since we got it takeaway the presentation was not that good and the whole piece of lebanese bread was stuck into a tiny bag. makes it kinda hard to eat compared to the way other middle eastern take away places do it. plus the bread was sticky. why??? as for price i think it's on the pricier end and but not as good value for money as other places. we didn't get falafel even though i thought we were supposed to. i don't think i would go back. it's popular though so maybe you will like it.

tastycharcoalchicken with quick service at a good price. best for takeaway as there isn't too much seating room inside. i recommend the chicken meal deals; maybe with some extra toum!

the smell of barbequed chicken hits you as soon as you turn onto the main street of granville. while this suburb is probably best known as the home of the original el jannah, it is immediately apparent to me that this is not where this mouth-watering aroma is emanating from... taking up several shop-fronts, the culprit is hawacharcoalchicken. it has bright red awnings, and an extensive indoor seating area that seems to go on forever. you order at the counter where you can watch meat skewers being hand-turned over charcoal, and endless racks of flattened chickens rotating on a spit to a soundtrack of pops and sizzles from fat dripping onto glowing charcoal. as you'd expect, the scent of charred chicken skin is even stronger in here, and it makes my mouth water even after a half-eaten, unsatisfying dinner elsewhere. we consume our second dinner at one of the street-side outdoor tables, where we can watch late-night granville parade by. most of them seem to be coming to hawa, or...

bestcharcoalchicken in sydney, definitely worth the price. restaurant is large with many seating areas and well ventilated. love it and will 100% recommend it to anyone looking to taste the best succulent chicken by far. and right in the same premises they have their own cafe ( campos) which definitely to me sells the best coffee by far. asked for a latte and boy it was a heck of a latte, the service is excellent and the workers always have a smile on their face, will be back definitely .

my favourite place forcharcoalchicken. best food. staff are great and a very filling meal. the garlic sauce (toum) is out of this world. chicken is very juicy
