This has some of the best hummus I've had outside the Middle East. Highly recommend!

Shaffa

Some of the best shakshuka I've had considering its central location in the city.

Kepos Street Kitchen
@ethanmoy
Another great cafe in a tree-lined neighbourhood close to the city. It's a bit pricey, but the falafel here was great. Check hours before going -- sometimes they're open for dinner.

Ezra
@ethanmoy
An upscale place but definitely worth it for Israeli food. Try the Jerusalem bagels!

New Star Kebab Family Restaurant
@ethanmoy
The entire area of Auburn is filled with Middle Eastern places. The kebabs here do not disappoint, and the Turkish bread is warm and perfect.

Jasmins Granville
@ethanmoy
A Lebanese place with delicious meats at very reasonable prices. The hummus is also good, but I preferred the one at Dipsy Bondi.

Kabab Al Hojat
@ethanmoy
Although Merrylands is further from Central Sydney (30-40 minutes from Central Station), I found the kababs here to be delicious as well.

Cairo Takeaway
@ethanmoy
One of these best places if you're in the Newtown area. They serve Egyptian-style food, and you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Oh, and they're open later (11pm on weekends).
