El Jannah (Arabic: الجنة; lit. 'paradise' or 'heaven') is an Australian family owned fast food restaurant chain that specialises in Lebanese cuisine. It is particularly well known for its main menu item of charcoal Lebanese style chicken and its garlic sauce or toum.

El Jannah restaurants are widespread across Sydney and Melbourne, and the chain is currently expanding to other cities, with outlets in Canberra, Wollongong and Tahmoor in the Southern Highlands region.

History

Founded by Andre and Carole Estephan, the first El Jannah store opened in the Sydney suburb of Granville in 1998.

The restaurant has somewhat of a cult following within Sydney and has expanded to more than 20 outlets across the Sydney metropolitan area, as well as in the Sydney CBD and Macarthur by the late 2010s and early 2020s.[2]

The chain opened its first outlet outside of Sydney, in the Melbourne suburb of Preston in April 2022,[3] and its first store in Australia's capital Canberra, in the suburb of Gungahlin, opened in May 2023.[4]
