Be part of the founding team bringing Australia's most legendary charcoal chicken to South Australia.
About El Jannah
El Jannah began in **** in Granville, Sydney, with a simple idea: serve honest, authentic Lebanese-Australian food that brings people together.
More than two decades on, our charcoal chicken, bold flavours and energetic restaurants have made us one of Australia's most loved food brands, with restaurants across NSW, the ACT and Victoria.
Now we're bringing El Jannah to South Australia for the very first time, right by the beach in Glenelg!
