ive always liked lebanese food, but this place is like truly lebanese. i loved the meshawi mixed plate that had kebabs/kofte .. personally i lived the one with chicken.
the staff is extremely polite and sweet. even though i bothered then quite a few timeस, they answered each of my questions very well and helped me place my order.
i ordered the fatteh which was chickpea and yogurt. i like the taste but it was a little less spicy for my taste.
the falafel was amazing and very filling.

mind you their portion size is large and do not order too much food at once becauee you might end up taking it home for dinner!

my favourite was the garlic sauce that they served along with. it was just the best thing!

for dessert i had baklava and i was surprised to see they had ladies finger baklava as well! their cinnamon tea is free for the first round and tastes great with the baklava.

overall, my experience was fabulous and i'm definitely going back for a gorgeous shawarma asap!

excellent food, huge portions, friendly staff - couldn’t be better!
i just loved their garlic sauce, tabouli and garnishes. we ordered mashawi, fish and prawns - they were delicious.

best chicken i have ever had in sydney.
the restaurant is so busy when i walked in, yet the owner offer great service and food was delivered in a short time with very nice service.
unfortunately, my phone died so i could not take a few pictures. for the record, i happily finished the mixed plate (all chicken) and grilled eggplant/cauliflower all by myself.

have visited this place a lot of times.if you want to have food in a budget which tastes good as well,this is the place.they serve complimentary pickled olives and veggies with bread.towards the end,they serve jasmin tea which is also on the house.must try the veggie platter.

best thing about the place - better taste and much better portions. you are greeted with the most beautiful smelling jasmin tea. i went in for the veggie platter to get everything veggie they have on menu together and it's all worth for the price, the taste is authentic, portions size is huge and service is quick.

if you ever heard of the expression “looks can be deceiving” well i tell you what jasmin1 is just that .
it’s middle eastern cuisine at its best. our gang hit the streets of auburn on a fine weekday evening and came across jasmin1. let me tell you straight parking is no fun at this place. space is limited so public transport would be good option. you won’t think much about the restaurant when you see it from the outside but don’t turn back yet . we got a table straightaway and started ordering our good. we ordered the chicken shawarma, lamb shawarma and mixed plate as we wanted to try everything.
the mixed plate was yumm, the combination of kafta, shish kebabs and falafel along with garlic , baba ghanoush (egg plant) and hummus was heavenly.
we thoroughly enjoyed it. the chicken and lamb shawarma was awesome not to mention the pickled vegetables. we also had a jug of ayraan , yoghurt drink which very soothing followed by a sweet black tea.
the whole experiences as a reminder of the dubai street food scene which i miss dearly.i left very envious about the plight of sydneysiders as they have authentic lebanese dishes at their doorstep.
lucky !!!

kabseh fish : 😁 great
mixed plate : 😍 amazing
fattouch : 😍 amazing
service : 😁 great

beautiful food and great service. you can smell the deliciousness of the food from outside. absolutely loved the meats on the mixed plate. everything was cooked perfectly and some meats even had that smoky taste to it. tabouli was a little sour for us but still paired well when eaten with everything else.

best mediterranean restaurant in sydney.best in terms of cost and taste both .. u have to wait in queue but hospitality , presentation ,taste of foods make it worth

more of a 3.5! service was okay, waiters were prompt but not so welcoming which was a little disappointing. the food was okay as well. it isn’t as good as some of the arabian food i’ve had, but it isn’t too bad. i ordered the mixed platter and everything on it was delicious, the only down fall was the tabouleh which was way too sour! the falafel in particular was mouthwatering so i definitely recommend that!
the kabneh fish was good and we all really enjoyed that. i also really enjoyed the complementary tea offered at the end of the meal, it acts as a really good cleanser 😂.

once you tried their food especially their meat platter you will definitely coming back. my favourite is their mixed plate so i have bits and pieces of everything. their chicken and lamb is my top pick. it is very tasty and tender. they have a complimentary tea once you finish your meal. we always go here every friday and it is always packed which means food is really good!

i honestly love this place. would come here over again and again and again and again. :) definitely recommended to those who are looking for some good authentic middle eastern food.

came here for iftar dinner with my family extremely busy and fast paced atmosphere didn't actually mind it. the food was average considering we were all fasting i had to tell the waiter to give us a new fresh fattoush salad because he gave me a salad from couple who were sitting behind us so that gave a bad impression of the place however the rest of the food was delicious.

now about the service really good especially the girl her name is sadi such a sweet and wonderful waitress but not the the others just minor things they could change about the way they serve people. don't get me started on the people behind the counter extremely rude to customers!

all in all good food reasonable prices just minor things they should consider with customer service and presentation and i can bet people will fall in love with place and come back. parking is shocking lucky if you find a spot. and yes from reading all the previous reviews the cinnamon tea is great at the end of a the meal but considering we came for iftar dinner during ramadan i would have liked a slice of cake or at least a baklava for dessert but didn't get anything.

rly disappointed that all the foods were pretty much covered in bread or had gluten in them :( cross contamination is a huge issue here so i wouldn’t recommend it if you can’t have gluten

that being said tho, the few pieces of chicken (chicken shawarma) and lamb (large mashawi) that weren’t touching the bread was pretty good! good flavour of spices and well cooked meat. fried eggplant was quite nice but there weren’t that many pieces.

didn’t have tabouli because that apparently had wheat grass in it. their pickled vegetables also have gluten containing vinegar. wish i could’ve ordered fries but nope that had gluten too.

we had a few order mix ups (1 was missing a portion and the other was the wrong dish). the place gets rly busy so i get that it might occur but at least the customer service was good and any problems were settled quickly.

i love this place ! value for money and great food and portions .

the garlic dip and pickled veggies are also a great touch. sambousek were yum loved the cheese ones and the kebabs were really great too. can’t wait for my next visit when i’m back in sydney

great food and friendly, efficient staff. i would recommend that you make a booking for this restaurant as this place was packed when i went.

service - a family had just vacated a table which we were directed to. however we soon realised that there was food on the chairs, floors. overall it was gross. i asked for us to be moved, but the manager/senior staff told us there weren't any other available tables. he, however apologised for the unclean state of the table and quickly had 3 other staff clean the table and the area in less than a few minutes. the staff were all smiles, not once showing attitude for this added work.

food - the food was amazing. deliciously made skewers of meat. the food was plentiful, tasty and priced cheaper than i would have paid for this quality of food.

overall a pleasant dining experience.
