Al-aseel - Sydney

One of my favorite restaurants. I eat a lot of different kitchen, but always a mixed teller of al aseel is up there with my all-time favorites.

Excellent lebanese food. Been coming for years and never been disappointed. I highly recommend this place if you are in the area. Make sure you get lamb/chicken skewers and salads (tabouli fatoush)they are delicious...........

Lebanese mezze gives the ultimate gift of share-worthy food, and never fails

Having both my parents born in Lebanon, you can imagine the kind of food they prepare at home. It’s definitely an advantage but sometimes, I just love to go out for a Lebanese feast and Al Aseel in Greenacre, is one of the top two places I go to. The thing I love most about Lebanese food, is that it’s quick to prepare and it all comes out at once. It’s best enjoyed in groups, just so you can order a mix of everything. Banquet menus are very popular so be sure to enquire to get the best value. I think we did pretty good in ordering for two though! We started off with a couple of mocktails (no alcohol available unfortunately) but they were really delicious. We ordered a few mezza dishes which included some dips, a tabouli salad, some sausages, chicken wings and potatoes and then ordered kafta from the grill as it’s a nice and juicy meat skewer. ‘Kafta Mishwe’ Kafta skewers, garlic dip, onion parsley mix. When ordering skewers, I usually order this because it’s such a juicy meat. It’s basically a beef meatball. I usually wrap a little in Lebanese breed and then dip it into hummus and oil. Bliss! ‘Sujuk’ Spiced sausages with lemon. These are the perfect little sausages with so much flavour. Squeeze a generous amount of lemon onto them and wrap into Lebanese bread. ‘Jawaneh Bi Kizbarah’ Fried chicken wings, coriander, garlic lemon. This is my favourite, simply because of the garlic and lemon. The fried chicken wings are coated generously and it’s just so freakn’ delicious. ‘Dip Platter’ Hummus, baba ghanouj, labneh, beetroot dip, served with olives, zaartar kaak bread. I mean, you can’t go wrong with some delicious dips and freshly fried, crispy Lebanese bread! ‘Batata Bi Kizbara’ Fried potato, coriander, garlic mild chilli. I love potatoes when they’re prepared like this. The potatoes are crispy on the outside but fluffy and full on the inside. Perfect amount of garlic and chilli to finish. ‘Tabouli’ Parsley, tomato, onion, burghul, sweet pimento, olive oil lemon dressing. My favourite salad overall. My favourite way to eat it, is by scooping some in a lettuce cup and eating it with my hands, just like San Choy Bow! If you’re looking for authentic Lebanese food, visit Al Aseel in Greenacre. Take your family, take your friends and make a night out of it!

This place is super busy but their service makes up for the wait because they’re so friendly and quick with the food. Loved the food that we got. Haloumi; Mixed Grill for one; Fried Eggplant.
