I used to be a regular customer here, but this experience was extremely disappointing. The pizza was overloaded with tomato sauce and both the top and bottom were completely burnt. The crust was charred and tasted bitter, making the pizza almost impossible to enjoy. It honestly looked like it had been left in the oven far too long and no one bothered to check it before serving. After receiving a pizza like this, I won’t be coming back.

I have been getting my veg zatar wrap from here since 4 years. The pizza is also great specially the mini ones are loved by kids. The service is smooth & staff is friendly and polite.

Early mornings before catching a train at Kogarah needs a breakfast fix and what better than Lebanese baked goods? While the humble store is cramped inside with minimal outdoor seating, the family makes do with the small space to create tasty pastries that waft out onto the streets. The young man at the front is very welcoming and affable, giving recommendations and offering toppings such as chilli flakes that I have never been asked of before. The bread are distinctively baked in a wood-fired oven, producing a toasty char that expands the texture and flavour of the dough. This eccentricity is fully displayed in their pizzas, an airy dough augmented with a rustic crisp and a tinge of bitterness from natural leopard spots. Their zaatar topped with cheese pizza is exploding with fragrance from its generous slathering of zaatar kept in check underneath a mild mozzarella layer. In some parts where the cheese was absent, the zaatar blend became too overpowering and clouded the taste buds. I had high hopes for their meat pizza too but I was let down by their meat which tasted too much of tomato paste, similar to bolognese, rather than juicy meat with a nonpareil spice mix you can't put a finger on. If anything, try out their shanklish pie. Its flaky exterior leads into the nutritious crunch of tomatoes and onions that enlivens the mouth. My first taste of shanklish was a beautiful marriage of spicy and salty, even better when complemented with the clean-tasting vegetables. The pie is unexpectedly filling and an underrated breakfast/lunch option that could use the spotlight! Same can be said for their pies and pockets that flaunt a spectacular, golden brown crust and soft dough within. Treat yourself to the mixed cheese pocket with its delightfully creamy filling that is full of cheese pull potential. I'll certainly be eating more and I won't get enough of having front row seats to their wood-fired oven and prowess.

We ordered supreme chicken pizza , standard crust. The pizza was a little plain for my taste although quite fresh.

Disappointing experience. While waiting for my order, I saw a staff member put her finger in her nose and then scratch her head before immediately using the utensils to handle my pizza without washing her hands. When I politely raised my concerns, they were laughed off and I was told it was acceptable because the utensils (not her hands) were touching the food. Basic food hygiene should be taken more seriously. I won’t be returning.
