Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
Baba Ghanouj Parramatta is a Lebanese restaurant, café and bar on Phillip Street, with a focus on shared dining, private events and a warm, family-friendly setting. The venue caters for casual meals as well as birthdays, engagements, corporate functions and other celebrations, with tailored banquet menus and dedicated service available for group bookings.
The kitchen presents Middle Eastern food made in-house each day, drawing on traditional techniques and quality ingredients. The menu includes vibrant mezza, charcoal-grilled meats, fresh seafood and a broad selection of vegetarian dishes, with house-made bread intended to be shared across the table. The restaurant also offers banquet menus for diners who want a more complete group dining experience, along with wines, beers and other beverages, including selected imports from Lebanon.
The venue’s name comes from baba ghanouj, the eggplant dish made by charring eggplant over an open flame and combining it with olive oil and lemon. That preparation is described as reflecting the broader approach to the food: straightforward, carefully made and rooted in tradition. It is the clearest signature reference on the site, while the wider menu is designed around generous portions and communal eating rather than individual, formal courses.
Baba Ghanouj suits families, friends and larger groups looking for a relaxed Lebanese meal in Parramatta, as well as anyone planning a special occasion or private function. The venue promotes private dining and event spaces for functions of different kinds, making it relevant for both organised celebrations and casual shared meals. The kitchen operates throughout the day for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and shisha service is available from 11:30 am daily. Reservations, event enquiries and general bookings can be made directly with the Parramatta team.
