From where it all began to where we are today! 🧡
Our journey started in Punchbowl, then took us to Revesby, followed by Peakhurst, and now we’re getting ready to open our doors in Moorebank!
Every location has been another chapter in our story, and none of it would have been possible without the incredible support of our community.
We’re so proud of how far we’ve come, and we can’t wait to share this next chapter with you.

Every bird is marinated for 24 hours in our signature recipe, allowing the flavours to develop deep into the chicken before being slow-roasted to perfection.
The result? That unmistakable Awafi finish, beautifully charred on the outside, juicy and impossibly tender within, with bold flavour in every bite.

What people say
Awafi Chicken, located on Queen Street in Sydney, is a must-visit for anyone who loves charcoal chicken and Lebanese cuisine. The restaurant has been serving up its original recipe since 1998 when it first opened as a tiny takeout store near Granville station. Today, Awafi Chicken is one of the oldest and best purveyors of Lebanese charcoal chicken in Sydney.
What sets Awafi Chicken apart from other restaurants is its commitment to preserving the original taste of its dishes. Despite its success over the years, the owners have never changed their recipe or compromised on quality. This dedication to authenticity is evident in every bite of their delicious food.
One of the standout dishes at Awafi Chicken is their charcoal chicken, which is cooked to perfection and served with their famous garlic sauce. The restaurant also offers a range of other Lebanese dishes that are equally delicious, including shish kebab, falafel, and tabbouleh.
The restaurant's location inside a car wash may seem unusual at first glance, but it only adds to the unique charm of this hidden gem. The hustle and bustle outside only serves to make the experience inside even more special.
Overall, Awafi Chicken is a must-visit for anyone looking for authentic Lebanese cuisine in Sydney. With its original recipe and commitment to quality, it's no wonder that this restaurant has been a favorite among locals and visitors alike for over two decades.
