Things to do in Lidcombe
1. Kouzina Greco
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 185 reviews
Reviewed By UncleDom - London, United Kingdom
Really amazed how good the food and service was at Kouzina Greco , I ate there on a busy Saturday night while staying in Parramatta and it was outstanding.
Food was delicious, a shared starter of 3 dips with flatbreads was wonderful, some asparagus with croquettes excellent, beef stifado and lamb souvlaki for main just as good.
There is a wine list or BYO for A$10 corkage. The staff were super friendly, fun and so happy to help but do book as it gets incredibly busy which is not surprising as it is so good, you will not be disappointed.

Dooleys is a good place to go to relax, have a cheap meal and a good time too, depending on your interests. The food is okay, it's filling and satisfying. And you can have a drink or two as well at reasonable prices.

Reasonable quality food but A$24 per head. Moderate amount for the price...samosa to start, main course, naan and rice. Service was ok, but I think the waitress needs to know that you don't put the main dishes on the table by holding the lip of the bowl...because your finger can dip into the food, which it did.

Wanted a nice lunch before heading to the Showgrounds for the camping and caravan show. Ordered a burger and red wine. No it wasn’t Macdonald’s price ($20), but it was worth every cent. Beautifully built and proportioned, perfectly cooked, couldn’t fault a thing...I’m one happy camper!

Reviewed By pamellab2017 - Sydney, Australia
The place is tiny, but the staff are always hospitable. They can usually get you a table, but, at times that means you have to wait a while. It's worth it though, so don't be discouraged by the wait or the line. The coffee is always made well and their food is tasty. The only reason I don't go very often is simply that there is rarely any parking near it- but that's not their fault. Highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

If you really want to enjoy Lebanese food go for it. They have various option from falafal. I like the tea after dinner and during week days it is complementary. The only problem is parking. you can park at Auburn council parking for 2 hrs at no cost which is walking distance from the restaurant.

MY FAVOURITE RESTAURANTS AND CAFES IN SYDNEY
Sydney a cosmopolitan city is considered the melting pot of the world therefore most of the world’s cuisines can be found here. From silver service restaurants to bistros and cafes, one can enjoy the cuisines of the world, a gastronomic adventure for those seeking different flavours and tastes from dishes cooked with the freshest foods found locally.
My favourite restaurants and cafes are the following; the Opera Café in Hotel Intercontinental or Café Mix in Shangri-la Hotel at the Rocks where international buffets are served. At Kelly’s Bar And Grill Bondi Junction in Bondi Westfield Shopping Centre, I enjoy the well flavoured juicy steaks and specially marinated ribs served with the house bread speciality ‘Brioche’. Other items on the menu tempt the tastes of diners. Ask for a window table when booking for a panoramic view of Sydney Harbour Bridge and city and water views of Bondi Beach nearby. This restaurant has special New Year’s Eve menu to welcome in the New Year and watch the fireworks display live from this venue. For Italian food, Leichhardt is the place to go and there are many restaurants to dine in. For someone with a sweet tooth, the St. Honore Bakery at Mosman has a wide variety of bread, cakes and pies in store and also a restaurant for a taste of degustation French food on a promotion basis.
For seafood, there are many restaurants at Darling Harbour but my favourite one is at the Sydney Fish Market where there are small cafes selling over the counter freshly cooked seafood. Fish, prawns, scallops, calamari, mussels, crumbed or battered are among the cooked seafood available. Already cooked fresh lobsters such as Lobster Mornay, or other lobster dishes can be ordered cooked to one’s liking such as steamed or stir fried with shallots, ginger and a touch of chillies in a tasteful sauce. Crabs are also available cooked to one’s liking and Chilly Crab is one of them. Experience dining in the open air cafes with the fresh sea breeze wafting through and listen to the squawks of sea gulls bobbing on the sea and flying in to try and ‘catch’ fish from the many fish stalls selling fresh fish.
Chinese food and other SE Asian cuisines can be found in Chinatown in the city and my favourite Chinese restaurants are the Golden Century Restaurant and Marigold Restaurant. ‘Yum Cha’ usually served during lunch time and a la carte menus are available in these two restaurants. ‘Yum Cha’ as the locals know it consists of steamed, fried or baked dumplings (dim sims) served on plates placed on trolleys that are pushed around the tables in the dining room for diners to make a selection of what they would like to have for lunch. A novelty in sampling small portions of different dishes for taste.
Smaller restaurants known for their BBQ and roast pork and roast duck can be found in other suburbs such as Chatswood and Neutral Bay. For authentic Singaporean and Malaysian flavours, try Ginger N Spice Restaurant at Neutral Bay. Challenge your taste buds for slightly spicy North Indian aromatic curries and tandoori baked ‘naan’ bread at Shennai Indian Restaurant, Crow’s Nest along Pacific Highway.
10. El Jannah - Charcoal Chicken and Lebanese Cuisine
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 227 reviews
El Jannah Restaurant is a family run business which began operation in 1998 as a small takeaway shop in Granville. The business was created by Andre Estephan and his wife Carole, who have taken great pride and interest in providing the best quality chicken and service to the area of Granville and the neighbouring suburbs. Over time El Jannah has grown to become an integral part of Granville and the surrounding area of Parramatta. Many of our customers travel many kilometres from all over Sydney to enjoy our great tasting charcoal chicken and legendary garlic sauce. The impressive quality of service from the great team of workers has proven to be an important asset, making El Jannah well equipped for the vast amount of customers it welcomes daily. The team at El Jannah is proud of its success and is happy to continue serving its customers into the future.

Went for lunch yesterday and was very happy, the place was clean and the food was fresh. Ordered the skewer plate which came with beef lamb and chicken hummus and garlic sauce. The olive oil on top of the hummus was delicious to.
I'll be happy to go back the next time I'm in the area
