Rowda Ya-habibi

Had a party here last month with 30 people - They have a large room in the back. We have often been to friends gatherings here and they have always been great - Our party was no exception. The food is Lebanese style and we ordered a variety of set menus. The food was excellent as usual and the staff very friendly and helpful. The price is good value. Would definitely recommend - especially for gatherings.

Excellent take away falafel. Big servings and reasonably priced. Their semolina honey cake and Turkish Delight are delicious. If you want to sit down they have a room out the back too with a larger dine-in menu. A casual place with great food and the hostess/owner is one of the most wonderful people you'll ever meet!

Not sure how this scored so high from other reviewers, it was really disappointing. 2 out of 3 fried dishes we ordered were reheated, not fresh. The other dishes were average too. You can't reheat fried food in a table service restaurant. The setting was quite bleak as well. Redeeming factors were the nice staff and hummus.

First Impression: May look simple from the front, but the wonderfully warm welcome from owner / chef will keep you coming back alone. Look & Feel: The old lady will make you feel at home and nothing is too much trouble. There is restaurant style seating at the rear if you intend to stay for a nice sit-down meal or group event (with a separate menu). Quality & Taste: Amazing. Fresh ingredients, home-made and full of authentic impactful flavours. Opt for the extras and sides, they are all fantastic and enhance the meal so much. Desserts are a treat as well. Empty Wallet: You'll walk away with plenty of change, no matter how greedy you are. Get the basic wrap ($5.50 - $6.50) but don't skimp on the bonuses (eggplant, fried califlower, vine leaves etc for $1 - $2). Desserts are equally good value (baklava $2/ large piece). Must Have: Add the eggplant, fried cauliflower (or both!) to the falafel wrap for an amazing vegetarian meal which would satisfy anyone's tastes and still comes in well under $10.
