Lebanese Grocer

The shawarma was nice. I was worried about the fries inside the wrap but it worked great with the final product. 8/10 The coriander chips were lovely as well.8/10 The baklava super. 9/10 Staff were nice and friendly with fast service. Looking forward to return.

The service was amazing, very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere here was great as well, they have a nice little eating area at the back. The shawarma tasted really good, good mix of vege and meat. The coriander chips was also tasty as well if you like coriander.

Tried them last week for the first time and ordered their Chicken Shawarma. The first bite is divine with the burnt pita flavour coming out of it. However, after few bites, somewhere in the middle had a very salty flavour that is overpowering the rest. I really like the strong flavours but the saltiness is putting everything off. So then I tried their Sojouk the next day but for this batch, it had a very sour taste coming from the pickle (or pickle sauce?). Overall I like it, it would just be great if the strong flavours could be balanced. P.S. their Baklava is really tasty perfect finish to wash off the flavours from the mains.

Good food makes my day, Lebanese Grocer food really does it. When it comes to fine a new eatery in Auckland, multiple decisions are on the table. Came directly to Lebanese Grocery, once move towards the corner, Ali - the owner - saw us from 2 rooms away. He walked back to the restaurant, even did not know that if we would come in or not. Walked with impressive atmosphere of old style restaurant, we were greeted with Ali’s pleasure, so welcoming. Came to the back of restaurant there be 9 table for seating with a good atmosphere. We started with Lebanese Coffee - feels like home 🥰 taste great as coffee when you travel the world. Their falafel is good. A little salty but good falafel on top of tahini spread. Comes to the main, we order Chicken, Lamb and Beef. 🐔 Chicken Shawarma: halal, no dairy. Good moist and fantastic chicken shawarma. Love it. 🐑 Lamb: halal, no dairy. Very tenders braised lamb with their salad and pickle. Give you fantastic flavour. 🥩Sojouk: vegan: Armenian beef sausage. Very impressive. Our favourite dish of the meal. Wow oh wow. Doing business is very tough in Auckland. Ali leads the team well with enthusiastic and love of what he is doing. Come on over to one of Auckland’ ICONIC 100.

Tens across the board. A group of mates and I came here for lunch for the first time. And won't be the last. The chips were so good as a side. Not sure about adding it to your shawarma tho. Fried chicken amazing. See you again.

The Lebanese Grocer is home to the best chicken shawarma I have ever tried, outstanding! Not just the shawarma but the hummus and labneh that we got to take home is unbelievable. Pro tip, they give you $2 back each time you drop in your jars for a refill of hummus or labneh, hold onto your jars. 10/10 - Highly recommend to all. James Ashwin Kakapo Business Sales

An event was recently catered by these guys for us. I had heard amazing things and the staff were incredible! Really kind and knowledgeable ensuring impressively precise presentation. I’ll start with the good stuff - good hummus (it’s the very smooth kind) and absolutely outstanding baba ganoush. The falafel was excellent in texture and flavour - light and fluffy - but I found them to be far too salty. The chicken shawarma was especially salty I couldn’t eat it. Even the topping on the bread was so overpowering in saltiness I tore it off. The bread itself was delicious.

We tried the lamb & chicken shawarma , both equally tasty especially their toum is very delicious. We took home their hummus & labneh of which the hummus was pretty good too. My only gripe would be if the roll was a bit more stuffed it’d be more filling but overall it’s pretty good , close to the real deal.
