Zahli 529 Elizabeth Street, Surry Hills, New South Wales 2010

"After the failed Middle Eastern food experience last time, I urgently need to find a delicious Middle Eastern restaurant. This Lebanese restaurant met my expectations very well. The juicy eggplant is a good appetiser. And I really like the lahem meshwi (lamb shish kebab). The meat is very tender and the juice flows out every bite. The dipping sauces are another highlight, we had a garlic flavoured sauce and pepper flavoured and both of them tasted amazing. If I want to be greedy, I will take one home! The chicken shawarma is good but a bit too sour for us, and the squid is average so I deduct a star for these reasons. But if I ever crave for nice kabab dishes in the near future, I will visit here again."

"Zahli is an amazing Middle Eastern restaurant!! The food and wine selections are delicious with a wide variety of options to suit everyone. The whole team are wonderful they are always professional and provide outstanding customer service. The ambience is great!! Great for any occasion including special functions. Thanks for always exceeding my expectations dynamic Zahli team. See you soon. ❤️"

"Absolutely PHENOMENAL! I can't wait to come back! Tonight was the first time I actually had dinner in the restaurant. Normally I'm there for business entertaining children for a function. WOW! The food was absolutely delicious, the service was absolutely wonderful & the owner was simply just humble! I want to try everything off the menu! Now I know why everyone is talking about this place! Zahli you have brought Lebanon home. Thank You"

"Could not fault our dining experience here! We had the labneh, fattoush, potatoes, mixed grill, chicken manaf and the kousa. Finished off with knafeh and rice pudding. Service was amazing, especially Adella who was extremely attentive and kind. The restaurant itself is lovely, with a great atmosphere. My daughter was so impressed she thanked the chef personally. Will definitely be back!"
