    Well roasted whole chicken and skewers make this place perfect for a family outing! It's a family run business and host lady is such a wonderful person. She kept checking with us if everything was going well! Also check out their packed savouries...looked awesome!

    Best chargrilled food ever! Authentic Lebanese cuisine, food is always amazing and freshly made. Best falafel, best grills, best tabouli and sweets in Adelaide! Love everything this family restaurant serve and would highly recommend for quality food.

    Loved this place, food was delicious, everything very fresh, will definitely make it my regular. It's Lebanese style food, freshly cooked my the owners and served with authenticity. You would see lots of Lebanese community members there, for my it's a sign for original Lebanese cuisine.

    Ordered ab pack with mix meat. Marinated beef was so badly marinated. Im not sure if it was cooked too much or was meat not fresh but it was very chewy like rubber. Chicken meat was like shredded boiled chicken. Fries were soaked in too much salt. Absolute zero taste. Couldn’t even eat it with that much sauces. Spoiled my money, not going back and not recommended.w

    We had a nice dinner by experience and particularly enjoyed the chilli flat bread. Friendly service and the skin on the bbq chicken is really damn good

    We always opt for Arz when we want to treat ourselves to a nice lunch. Their meat packs are great deals and well-portioned. The owners are lovely and always smiling. Pics below are from their catering service they offer as well which was organised for a big work lunch. Everyone loved it! 📸: @deelycious_ on insta for more pics

    Excellent flavour charcoal chicken. Quick and friendly service. Unique garlic sauce which is my favourite. Recommend to eat the flatbread quickly but the chicken stays moist and can be reheated later.

    We hit this restaurant whenever we crave for Lebanese food. You could either dine in or take away. The food is so delicious but the service in terms of delivering can get abit slow. We've been doing take outs the last few times and overall it's good!

    Disappointed :( I had high hopes as I love properly made charcoal chicken but I was given a very, very burnt chicken. I assume it was maybe because I was a new customer on Uber Eats that I was given the overcooked one. It’s a pity because I appreciated the style it was served - with toum and lebanese bread - yum! But the burntness and dryness made the chicken unenjoyable for my family.

    First time here, recommended by some friends. Lamb skewers are very tender and yum. Family deals are quite generous and more than enough. I think I would just order ALL lamb skewers next time instead of mixed. hehe.

    Fantastic "true" charcoal chicken which Adelaide is sorely in need of. Pricey, but very few establishments are doing it this way. Whole menu is great but the only letdown is the chips and I was told this by locals and agree. Lack crisp factor. Need to source different potato then the place is almost perfect.👍

    This is the best chicken you can eat and the owners are such great people. Friendly and always happy to see you. Do yourself a favour and try their authentic charcoal chicken with their authentic pickled veg and garlic sauce. Oh and dine in for their chilli bread. They deserve 10 stars.

  • 4/5 Tyson 1. 1 year ago on Google
    Mid week take away. Getting a bit expensive now. Two chickens, some chips, garlic dip and a tabouli came to over $70. Seems a bit pricey for what it is. Chicken was ok but a bit dry. Chips were soggy and not seasoned. Tabouli seemed like it wasn’t freshly made that day. Won’t be rushing back.

    Amazing Tawook chicken wrap! Took me back to Lebanon 🥰 delicious!!

  • 5/5 Jhoana B. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious Lebanese charcoal chicken, generous sharing platter. Also great hommus, one of the silkiest I've ever tried! Great value for money.

  • 5/5 Mara T. 1 year ago on Google
    We love Lebanese food and enjoyed our meal. The food is excellent. Our platter was enough for two people. Have had the charcoal chicken before and thought it was full of flavour. The staff are friendly and helpful Good value for money.

  • 4/5 Stuart R. 1 year ago on Google
    Not bad for a Sunny afternoon in Adelaide. Wife had the Lebanese pizza and I had a beef Shawarma. Pizza was nice according to my wife and my Shawarma was a little dry. Next time I will try the kofte. Not to pricey with 2 meals coming im at under $40. Thanks you we will return.

    We have two lebanese resteraunts closer to us but purposely went to Arz for their amazing food, always delicious. (Thank you so much for refunding me for the baba ganoush dip, shows what good people you are. )

  • 5/5 Lily 7 months ago on Google
    This is the first time we dined in here and I must say if I could I would give this 10 stars. All the staff was very friendly, food was full of flavour. We all ate like kings and the price was fantastic. Thanks for the wonderful food see you again- Tedesco family

    Been there twice in a week. Best charcoal food in Adelaide! Food is very tasty & fresh. We tried the mixed grill - shawerma (meal & wrap) & grilled chicken. Everything was just perfect and plenty. Also the salads - tahini & garlic are 👌🏼 Highly recommended.

  • 1/5 Mira Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered Uber and advised the owner that’s tabouli was missing owner blamed this on the Uber driver which was incorrect. Dips were also not as order instead of labneh they placed hommous and baba ghanoush, no pickles as stated in photos. Would not recommend you order from this restaurant as they take no liability for mistakes or offer compensation of any sort. No communication to swap or change orders if they were out of it.

😐 American styled joint. Thick shake was thick enough. Chocolate peanut butter tasted so good. The ice cream was just a normal ice cream with a fancy name. Burgers are small in general.
