This is what we mean when we say the weekend menu hits differently.

Our Kibbi Nayeh is a traditional Lebanese lamb tartare, seasoned with kamoon spice and served with fresh Lebanese bread. It’s one of the most authentic dishes at Jounieh and only available Friday to Sunday, so the window to try it is short.

Settle in for a slow weekend lunch with waterfront views on Walsh Bay, and start the meal with the dish that regulars come back for.

Open Wednesday to Sunday for lunch and dinner.

A Saturday on the harbour calls for freshly shucked oysters and a cold glass of ch*****ne đŸ„‚đŸŠȘ

Our Sydney Rock oysters are grown by Appellation Oysters in Merimbula on the NSW south coast, shucked to order and served with a crisp raspberry mignonette that lets their bold mineral zing and creamy finish shine.

Pair them with a glass of ch*****ne, settle in at our Lebanese restaurant on Walsh Bay and let the afternoon stretch out on the water.

This is what we mean when we say the sides matter just as much as the mains.

Our heirloom beetroot salad is built from farro grains, sultanas, pomegranate molasses, shaved haloumi and pistachios, and it’s one of the most colourful plates on the menu.

It’s the perfect side to round out any main at our Lebanese restaurant in Sydney, from our 11 hour slow cooked lamb shoulder to our Samke Harra with mild chilli tahini sauce, served with waterfront views on Walsh Bay.

This is what we mean when we say save room for dessert.

Knafeh is a classic Lebanese dessert made with warm angel hair pastry layered with cheese and crushed pistachios, finished with a scoop of ice cream, and ours is one of the most ordered desserts at Jounieh.

Settle in for a slow finish to the meal with waterfront views on Walsh Bay, and come hungry because this is one of those Sydney desserts you won’t want to share.

There are few better things in Sydney than a plate of oysters on the harbour đŸŠȘ

Our Sydney Rock oysters are grown by Appellation Oysters in Merimbula on the NSW south coast, shucked to order and served with a crisp raspberry mignonette that brings out their bold mineral zing and creamy finish.

Settle in with a glass of ch*****ne and waterfront views, and let summer begin as it means to go on.

This is what we mean when we say make the long weekend count.

Our Samke Harra is one of the quietly underrated dishes on the Jounieh menu, a fillet of market snapper plated under a mild chilli tahini sauce with capsicum, coriander and toasted pine nuts.

Pair it with a crisp glass of chardonnay and our fatoush on the side, and you’ve got a slow lunch with waterfront views on the harbour and no reason to rush home.

This is what we’re eating and drinking at Jounieh this weekend.

Chñteau Musar Jeune Rouge from the Bekaa Valley is a medium bodied blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon Blanc with notes of spice and licorice. We’d recommend pairing it with our Grilled Spiced Kafta, charred spiced ground lamb with muhammara sauce and grilled mild banana peppers.

It also pairs beautifully with our Makanek and slow cooked lamb shoulder, so if you’re looking to explore Lebanese w**e, chat to our sommelier to find the best pick for your meal.

Our waterfront Lebanese restaurant in Walsh Bay is open Wednesday to Sunday for lunch and dinner.
