Sydney Kebabs - Bankstown

Standard kebab with juicy chicken, but old salat and stingy on the garlic sauce, but a good price.

It's been here 15 years since my first time, and every time it's as good as the last. The chicken kebab I get is beautiful and juicy and full of everything you want. I usually put without sweet, only cheese, bbq and garlic sauce, with a little chilli sauce. the brot is beautiful and soft. it is always a good and filling kebab, beautiful aromen.

I want to try many different versions of food I like, so I can find the one that I rate as my best. Lately I have been on a bit of a kebab tour which has included this place, brothers kebabs, fully tabooly, gyradikos(maybe unsuitable to compare), victoria yeeros, new star and more. While they were all good, I would rate these guys the best by a slim margin. My wife agrees. The bread is fresh and chewy (I hate thick crunchy toasted kebabs), and the meat/chicken has a lot of flavour. As far as my best in Australia, that would be stalactites in Melbourne.

Easy parking, great store, clean looking and jumped hommus. Ordered kebab with the lot garlick and hommus for sauce. Everything going great until i tasted how jumped the hommus was. It was jumped atlest 40% really took away the whole enjoyment of the meal, through half of it away.

I can’t believe this place doesn’t have a review as of now! Sydney Kebabs is spoken about as arguably one of the best kebab shops in Sydney! I’ve had countless people tell me to get the best kebabs in Sydney, one must go to Sydney Kebabs just past the corner of Stacey Street and Hume Highway on the border of Bankstown and Bass Hill. So I drove past here and discovered it for myself on the way home from work recently. For just on 1am on a Tuesday morning, there were still 3-4 people milling around inside the store either consuming or waiting for an array of kebabs or Snack Packs. Given their closing time is 2am – it’s a good sign to see people in a store in a place outside what would normally be considered a late-night hub. The two men working behind the counter did look pretty tired and fatigued, but given it was 1am on a Tuesday morning you can’t blame them for looking tired and pretty much over it.  I ordered my normal mixed kebab w/ the lot with chilli and garlic sauce. Despite the fatigue etched over their faces, the kebab meat was shaved off the spit fresh, and a healthy amount deposited on the pita with fresh salad and cheese. I could tell by the fatigued faces of the guys behind the counter that they were itching to close up for the night, so I opted to eat in the car, which wasn’t a problem. The kebab was quite nice, but from the first bite I didn’t think it was as good as the kebabs I’d had in the last couple weeks at Canterbury kebabs and TC Bros on the opposite side of Bankstown. The pita wasn’t quite as nice as the aforementioned kebabs, but certainly better than the fare I’ve eaten outside the ‘Kebab belt’ of Sydney (if you will – the kebab belt being that region of Western Sydney where a lot of Middle Eastern migrants live). The salad was tasty, with the tabbouli, onion and lettuce being fresh and providing that fresh edge that cuts through the greasiness of the meat. The cheese wasn’t great admittedly. If I could go back, I’d order it without cheese next time. It’d clearly been sitting in the display window for a long while (I suspect most of that day at least) and had gone warm and congealed a bit. The meat was nice, but again, just didn’t have that juiciness that the two previous shops I’d been at had. They offer lamb kebabs, however only on Thursday-Saturday and only during daylight hours which baffles me a tad. I’m assuming that lamb spits cost significantly more than doner (beef) and chicken spits, but with Sydney Kebabs reputation, I’d have thought they’d have a Lamb spit all the time. A little disappointed. Overall, it was a decent kebab, but I’m not sure of the overall hype that I’ve heard about the place. It’s certainly far from the worst kebab I’ve ever eaten, and it did the job as a very late dinner after work. I’d definitely come back if I were passing through, but maybe I’ll have to try at a different time rather than 1am on an early mid-week morning, and perhaps get their lamb offering. I can see why they’d be popular, but maybe I just came at a bad time. But would come back for a kebab certainly.
