We had a great dinner here by chance our usual place was closed on the public holiday. What a great choice this was! The food was delicious and very fresh. The burgers were huge and the chips were perfectly seasoned. The prices are also very reasonable and parking is plentiful

A sit down restaurant with table cloths in the heart of Parramatta city that seems to offer Persian and Turkish food. Both the chicken and lamb kebabs were overcooked and dry and the accompanying "saffron" rice was not well seasoned so lacked flavour. The side dishes of salad and baba ghanouj were very small portions although the baba ghanouj was tasty and the stand out dish. Portion sizes of the kebabs were sufficient but given poor quality to represented poor value overall

Their food quality has gone down from the start. Specially the shame kebab its burned and very salty. And the prices has gone up. its not recommend in particular in Ramdan for breaking the fast due to large group of people coming in this time. The service is worst at all, I had to wait for a half an hour to get my order and that's unacceptable. hopefully they can improve their dealing with customers more and addressing this issues.

I had never eaten Afghani food before. I always assumed it was like Lebanese food. It isn't like Lebanese food it's more lightly flavoured but still very aromatic. I liked the meat dumplings, the lamb shanks and the skewers all of which have other names but I can't remember them. I wanted to take photos of the food. it totally forgot so I posted the empty plates because we loved the food.there wasn't any lefts I have posted our squeaky clean plates and dessert. We will be back. Mustafa gave us a history lesson on Kabul and Afghanistan.

This is one of the places that you should not miss if are really interested in authentic Lebanese food. Everything tastes like heaven. Staff are so friendly and the food is served with minimum delay.We went for mixed plates, trying kebabs, hummus, baba ghanoush and other authentic meals. So good. All well cooked and tasty. The spices they use are amazing. The cinamon tea at the end, is a bless.Don't forget it is not a find dinning or a very classy restaurant. It is a heaven for food lovers.

(4.5 stars)Itâs Friday night and Auburn is teeming with people. This Western Sydney suburb has a lot more high-rise than I remember from nigh on thirty years ago, and the cultural diversity is wider with Chinese, Turkish, Lebanese, Nepalese and Indian ancestry making up the suburb's top five. Weathering both the upwards growth and the cultural shift, New Star Kebab Family Restaurant has been serving the good people of Auburn for forty years. âIn the past forty years, we have become part of Australian cuisine,â owner Atilla Tok explains. The multicultural crowd dining at his busy restaurant are testament to the fact that eating kebab is now as Australian as the ANZAC biscuit.Tok immigrated to Australia 27 years ago, taking over the helm of this popular Turkish kebab shop in 2000, nearly twenty years ago. The menu has stayed the same throughout his tenure, with ninety percent of the food made right in front of your eyes (basically everything bar for the salads). His all-male service team are plentiful in number and friendly in attitude, ready to get this Friday night rolling.Demanding your attention even more loudly than the storeâs primary coloured neon, is the mouthwatering aroma of charcoal cooking. Itâs emanating from a glass booth where a smiling young lad expertly maneuvers kebabs over smoking hot coals using bread rather than tongs. Watching the bread picking up all the meaty juices, Iâm pleased to see it make its way onto the Mixed Shish Plate ($27) along with your choice of three different kebab â chicken, lamb and adana.Dining with a group in the outdoor plastic tent that expands the kebab shopâs seating to about a hundred, weâre treated to some fancier plating that sees three mixed plates worth of kebabs arranged in the round with salads, rice and well-charred tomatoes. The produce is top notch, from the premium quality meats, all the way to the non-floury tomatoes, helped no doubt by the fact that Tok is his own providore via second business, Fresh Cut Australia. He runs this in his down time from New Star Kebab, a business thatâs open seven days a week from 7am until 1am.Picked up in still-warm Turkish bread, the hunks of lamb back strap and leg meat are tender and delicious. The chicken kebab is moist and well-charred, perfect against Turkish yoghurt garlic dip, a gentler sauce than the Lebanese toum you might be used to.Roasted chilli sauce and the orange chilli dip in the platter of Mixed Dips ($10) keeps things lively as we mow our way through the meats, cooling our mouths on mugs of house-made Lemonade ($3). Made with lemons, sugar and water, it's lovely and sour, but not as sour as the purple cabbage salad. Tok points out this is an anomoly - someone in his forty-strong staff added too much lemon juice today. Personally I find it great as a palate reset as I move between the sumac, cumin and pepper-seasoned adana kofte and the shish plate's other items.Fine curls of doner kebab meat join a mix of bread, tomato-based sauce and yoghurt, for New Starâs Iskender Kebab ($18), which is then baked in the oven. Here this dish is slightly modified from the Turkish original, which would normally see cold yoghurt added to the hot plate after cooking. Tok explains that his Australian audience wasnât that keen on the hot-meets-cold sensation.While New Star Kebab do make traditional pizzas, theyâre listed way down the back end of the menu board for a reason â you should be eating Turkish pide instead! Opt-in for egg on the Ispanakli Pide ($21/large) with mozzarella, fresh spinach and fetta, it elevates this crisp, fresh pide into a satisfying, thing of beauty against a moderate squeeze of lemon.Kiymali Pide ($21) is given a fresh-parsley hit against ground lamb, onion, tomato and vegetables, and eats much lighter than other versions of this dish Iâve tried. I quite liked it against the babaganush dip, made here using baked rather than char-grilled eggplants, giving it a stronger eggplant flavour.Setting New Starâs gozleme apart from the ubiquitous market stall ones youâll find just about everywhere, is a team of older Turkish ladies who roll the dough out bigger and thinner than is possible to achieve in a market setting. The resulting Ispanakli Gozleme ($10) is wonderful, with crisp English spinach wrapped inside thin flaky pastry that's turned golden on the grill.Tokâs philosophy of using good quality produce and not cutting corners sets New Star Kebab apart from other Turkish kebab restaurants I have visited. With a constant flow of people that continues throughout my meal, itâs pretty clear New Star doesnât need reviews like this one to popularise their business, but I felt compelled to tell you about it regardless.

One of Sydneyâs highest rated Lebanese restaurants, the El-Phoenician, garnered star-driven praises from The Sunday Telegraph proving it is a contemporary and stylistic showcase with a modernistic approach to an arrestingly innovative Middle-Eastern food

We had an impromptu mid week lunch here this week. We were both feeling pretty hungry and had a rare couple of hours free in the middle of a very busy work week. On Church st surrounded by many other restaurants the atmosphere is totally different when we walked in. The decor is very nice with soft Lebanese music playing in the background, it felt very welcoming. We were immediately shown to a larger table (it being a relatively quite time) and immediately decided to try a variety of mixed entrees plus a main dish. The two waiters were both highly professional and the head waiter gave excellent advice on wine by the glass to suit the different dishes. The food itself was mouth watering. I have eaten Lebanese food before but none that tasted this good. For my lunch partner it was his first time and he truly fell in love with it. This is definitely a restaurant worth trying and we will definitely be back.
