I was in Sydney visiting family. I caught up with a friend and she was like. I really feel like Lebanese let’s google what’s close by. Jasmin 1 came up it was like a 5 mins drive from where I was staying.

We called up booked a table for 2. We arrived and where taken straight to our seats. The restaurant was supper busy. I said to my friend I had tried there Kibbeh nayyeh for take away it was good.

She said what do you feel like I said I’ll leave it up to you order what ever we share. Well that was a mistake she ordered enough for a family.

She ordered chicken shawarma lamb shawarma. Some rice dish, cauliflower, then same potato with chilli and herbs.

The food was amazing the chicken was nice and moist. The lamb was cooked to perfection. I loved the cauliflower and potatoes. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We dined-in as a large group for a work lunch. We pre-ordered our food for our group booking. The food came out almost as quick as we sat down and did not disappoint!
I had the mixed plate of dips with Chicken (thighs) and it was very juicy and succulent. MUST EAT whilst hot for a moist tenderlicious food coma.
The dips are on point! The fried eggplant - mouth watering and the fried cauliflower a MUST try for a first experience.

This place is my jam - I could eat dips and fried bread for the rest of my life. The service is quick and staff are friendly. The meat is juicy and flavourful. I was a bit disappointed by the fried cauliflower though...

Late lunch and the restaurant is still quite busy.
We got mixed plates and wraps. The dips are really flavourful and the meats are grilled to perfect smokiness. Chicken is very succulent.
The sausage is also really juicy.

Affordable and delicious!

Very nice food and good service all round. I definitely over ordered here, but that’s never a bad thing as it was great value for money. Tried one of the mixed plates (entrees or sides with it would not be necessary) and it was all great, especially the falafels. Very quick service. I would go here again.

Four of us decided to go here as our Christmas get together, and we are very glad we did.

The service was a little slow to begin with, but thankfully not for long. And the staff were very friendly and helpful - even if it did take a little while, and asking twice, before one of our little group got the salt he wanted.

The food! The food was wonderful. We ordered the Jasmin banquet plus a dish of potato coriander (because we all love potato coriander). The waitress had advised that we would only need one plate of it, and she was so right. There was so much food, and all of it delicious. Plus, the lemon and mint juice and the rose water drink were an excellent accompaniment.

All and all, a wonderful evening. We will try and get back here.

The best Lebanese between north of parramatta road and east of the M4. If you're in that area then there's no better. It's not the absolute best Lebanese in Sydney but it's not that far behind and their mixed plates offer more variety than some others too.

Eating in is definitely better than take away. Bit expensive and the garlic is crap, but service is great, meats tasty and tender, and c'mon, it's westie food in the inner west so I have to cut them a bit of slack.

Super good humus, best garlic lemon chicken, really nice tabouli. We are regular take away costumers and it has never let us down. I would only recommend to be a bit more generous with the bread.

This is my favourite place to grab some Lebanese food. Between the selection, price and taste it's a winner. I usually grab a mixed meat plate and it's is $19. It's a massive meal with amazing flavours. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is ok (but really you would go for the food). Give it a shot, you won't be disappointed!

We came here for a mid week dinner. The place was relatively busy but we were seated quickly and greeted with the complimentary garlic dip, pickles and bread. We ordered kofta, fattoush salad and hummus with meat. Very pleased with the food & we would come back again.

Excellent. Out of its hands but would be even more excellent if there were more parking, other than that at the malls, in the area.

We ordered mixed plates, which provided a bit of everything for an reasonable, affordable price, as well as some other dishes. Great value, though meat can be a bit dry and tough.

The service was superb and the staff were very conscientious. Ambience is all right; some dining parties can be a bit rowdy.

Would happily recommend Jasmin1 Leichhardt to friends.

I love this place !

Starters - fattoush salad; full of flavour.
Mains - the chicken with garlic sauce, and their mixed plate coupled with their baba ganoush is just heaven.
Dessert - a bit of baklava never hurt!

Love this place. It's loud, bold and brash, and the food is delicious, and full of flavour.

There's nothing particularly fancy about Jasmin 1 but it's easy dining with the option to BYO.

Be sure to take home your leftovers!

Have wanted to try this place for ages & now I wonderes why I took this long! Got takeaway and it is fast and efficient. Food is authentic, delicious, fresh & healthy tasting. The mixed grill is huge and great value. Falafels are some of the best, so crunchy on the outside & full of chickpeas and spices, just a little heavy on the seasoning for me. The dips are also amazing, not overly oily or garlicky. The meat has a beautiful charcoal flavour permeating through. Cant wait to eat more of their dishes!

I've been to Jasmin1 in leichhardt about four times in the past couple of years. The food has always been awesome. Usually when I've been there I get the mix plate to share, which comes with a different selection of meats eg. Chicken and beef, tabouli, houmos, felafel and baba ganoush. The fried eggplant is amazing as are the fried kibbeh. This place is great value.

Jasmin1 is one of my favourite Lebanese places. I have eaten in a couple of times but mostly we get home delivery. The order is pretty much always the same - fattoush with pomegranate adding an edge, and crispy pita chips adding crunch. The fried eggplant is gorgeous, tender and melting in the mouth, as os the chicken. The chicken mixed plate is a generous size, with creamy hummus and baba ganuj providing the perfect foil to a feast.

Great service and the food is very nice. Is it the best Lebanese taste wise- no way . But a great night regardless.
Positives - friendly, prompt service with a sense of humour. Good food. Value was awesome. Tok much food actually.
We did the Sultan set menu for 7 of us. It could have fed 10. We shouldn't waste food- they happily provide containers for take away.
BYO is another positive, bottle shop really close too.
Negatives: needs more "middle eastern" atmosphere. Music or dimmed lights or something , it was just too bright and lacked that "escape" feeling.
Food was a bit greasy and bland.
Fatoush was disappointing with too much capsicum, no radish and mint?
Tabouli needed more dressing
Lamb was way over cooked and poor quality.

I would return, but can't give it higher rating based on better experiences in Concord, Burwood and Lakemba.

A local favourite in Leichhardt, the hommus is by far one of the best I've tasted and you can't go wrong with a mixed plate. The newly renovated restaurant and delicious food come together to make a great night indeed. Did I mention it's BYO?

Thank you Jasmin1 for coming to Leichhardt. The food is mouthwatering and is consistently fresh and flavoursome. Lovely atmosphere inside and also great for a takeaway. Their lunchtime wraps are a delicious treat too. Service can be a little slow but it's well worth the wait.

The mixed plate, a little bit of everything. A struggle to finish it on most days. Friendly staff and the brothers who own the shop. The kebabs and the falafel are my favourites. The dips, both the Baba ghanoush and Hommous, are delicious.

I have never been to Jasmin 1, Leichhardt. 

However, I have ordered home delivery numerous times and have always been satisfied. It is a great thing to home deliver food fresh and good to go - perhaps it works here because I live just around the corner.

I especially rate the homous and baba gannoush, with the tabouli pretty tasty also.  They always provide generous portions of bread, pickles and dips with a takeaway order at no extra charge.

I notice a number of reviewers here were unhappy with their dine-in experience. Perhaps forget about that and order home delivery.

I ate here a few days ago when searching for quality Lebanese food. I opted for the lunch special - $10 for a plate of falafels, hommus, fattoush salad and Lebanese bread. The portion was huge I could hardly finish it. We also tried the deep fried cheese triangles. They were so delicious I will definitely be back for them! Although the service was quite monotonous, there was nothing to complain about. The food was delicious and cheap so I will definitely be back!

My wife and I celebrates a recent wedding anniversary at this delightful restaurant. It was our first occasion there. The service was personable and strentive. They made us feel very welcome and provided some good suggestions from the menu. The food was delicious. The variety of dips and salads was broad and the flavones were spot on with some succulent meats complimented by a variety of spices and a mountain if fresh bread. The Lebanese tea was a new experience for us both and was a great way to finish off the meal. The place was buzzing with small and large groups for. Monday. The staff were friendly and could not do enough to make our night special.

Don't pass this up!. This is one of my new favourites, the quality of food is amazing, service is friendly and prompt, and the price... well the price is definitely one of the motives to keep returning!

Last night I had finished work late and I went with a friend, they closed the kitchen at 11pm which was great. The atmosphere is warm and pleasant, a nice Middle Eastern atmosphere with the music video clips from Lebanon ( I have no idea what they are saying but its enjoyable!) the complimentary bread, dips and mixed pickles that came out were all tasty and by the time we finished the mains & sides we were stuffed, yet felt content! To top it off we were given cinnamon tea complimentary to the meal as well!!

All in all, dinner for 2 people (who might I add, like to eat a fair bit!) for only about $40 is very generous considering the quality and quantity.. To feed one person in other middle eastern places cost roughly that much like on many occasions (El Phonecian, Zenobia, Le Sarab).. Saying Jasmin 1 is 'good' is an understatement! Give it a try!

Good food. Portion sizes of salads and dips are much smaller than similar restaurants in Lakemba, Punchbowl, Bankstown, etc. It's much better value to go there if you can. Otherwise Jasmin 1 Leichhardt is an ok substitute

Great food and service. I used Jasmin 1 to cater a social night for 10 people based on the Urban Spoon reviews. I have to add mine - it was excellent! The staff were friendly and accommodating. I got a mix of food at $15 per person and everyone loved it. I wanted to make sure there was plenty for everyone, and they happily obliged! Will definitely use them again.

Excellent Every Time. I have eaten her four times now and am very impressed with the friendly staff and most of all the wonderful food. Everything is cooked to perfection. Luckily on our first visit the waitress stopped us from over ordering with very good guidance. I don't know if Jasmine 1 is in any way connected to the famous Jasmines at Lakemba which I also enjoy. However, I find Liechhart has the edge over Lakemba in terms of food and ambience.

Phenomenal. Every time we come back we are knocked off our chairs. The food is incredibly authentic, even more tasty and unbelievable value. We use to drive an hour to the original Jasmin restaurants in Punchbowl/Bankstown and are so greatful these guys have opened up closer to town.

A brilliant choice for a night out especially with large groups to share plates of some of the best middle eastern food in sydney. yum.

One of the best middle eastern restaurants in Sydney. Friday night, we were in mood for something not so fancy. From Urbanspoon, we picked Jasmine 1, as the interior of the restaurant looked decent for the price range mentioned. Though we were highly skeptical, it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We ordered two of the mains, a lamb kebab and chicken skewer.
They served a complimentary huge basket of super soft middle eastern bread wrapped neatly, dips and yummy platter of salted chillies and vegetables!!!! Though I am not a big fan of chicken, that chicken skewer turned out to be one of the best I have had. It was juicy and succulent. The portions are really perfect and filling. We had the lebanese tea afterwards and though I am not an expert in this, I could say it tasted gorgeous and refreshing. There was no bitter after taste or anything nasty of that sort.

This place is so much better in terms of food, compared some of the pricier, fine dining Middle eastern restaurants in Sydney. The staff is friendly and the place is very clean

Went here with a few mates after being disappointed by all the Arabic restaurants in surry hills that seem to only get good reviews from people that don't know how good Arabic food can really be. Jasmin 1 is definitely one of the best Arabic restaurants I've been to. Delicious food, friendly service and excellent value for money as they give you big portions.

I love the food at Jasmin1. This has become a favourite for our family celebrations. The mixed platters are great if you don't know what to order. Fried Eggplant and cauliflower is a must order. Only complaint would be the serving sizes seems to be getting smaller over the years.

We stumbled here by accident and it was a great mistake. We had a mixed plate and chicken something and both were super! Please, get the lamb sheesh because my goodness... lamb.. so good 👍 best one out of beef and chicken. They give you bread and some garlic dips and pickles too! But the sauces that come with the dishes were like oh my lord. So much and so delicious and you dip the bread and yum 👌 had to take the left overs away because portions were quite big! Super delicious, must try!

We booked for a table of 12 for our staff party and decided to have a banquet for 40pp. The food arrives quickly and the staff is great and friendly. However, it seems that they were too busy so they cleared our plates as soon as we finished and would like to finish the work for the day. I heard from a colleague that you should avoid disappointment by always booking for table in advance especially with large group. Their dips were delicious and the portion size was okay. However the banquet was a bit pricey compared to the amount of food we received. Willing to come back to try other dishes as the restaurant was packed full with customers so I assumed it is very popular amongst the locals. This is my first time visiting here but not my first experience with Lebanese food. Enjoy their food tastes as always. Thank you a good night!

First order from here today and couldn't be more impressed. Got the Large Mashawi and was blown away by the serving size and the flavour of each skewer. The chicken was beautifully tender, kafta nicely seasoned, and the lamb so juicy. Price was a shock, only because we pay the same for half this serving at other places! Definitely bang for your buck. Will only be ordering Lebanese food from here from now on
