Charcoal Boy Takeaway & Grill Croydon — Restaurant in Sydney

Never tried the food there, however I delivered there. Was absolutely furious delivering at the back section of the restaurant. Cramped space, and being lied to buy a staff there after asking him whether if the back section was wide or narrow. He told me it was not narrow, but wide. 🙄. Went to the back to deliver them during middle of delivery here are the following frustrations: 1) road was NARROW

had to stop delivering for few minutes just to give way to the resident trying to get into the gate on opposite side at the back of restaurant.

Parking at back was extremely difficult even trying to pull over to the side

Delivering towards storeroom, so many luggages and suitcases sitting on a white chair.... If they don't want the suitcases why not throw it out? Or give it away?

Almost tripped over a rock which was hidden in the grass on the side at entrance to back of restaurant storeroom

Already reported hazard and never...

We don’t usually order from here but decided to try their family meal. Unfortunately, we were quite disappointed with the quality. The chicken was very dry, as though it had been sitting under a heat lamp for too long, and it lacked any real flavour. The chips were stale, and the salad in the fattoush was wilted. The fattoush was also pre-mixed, which left the fried bread completely soggy - most places typically package the bread and dressing separately to prevent this.

The packaging was also poorly handled. Everything, including the 1.25L drink bottle, was crammed into a single small plastic bag. The gravy had leaked, and the chips were completely squashed on one side by the drink bottle.

We were disappointed with the overall experience. While we love to support small businesses in the area, we’re unlikely to order...

walked into what seemed to be a pleasant and clean place to have lunch. I was undecided between charcoal chicken or mixed skewer plate so settled on the as advertised “charcoal” skewers. Was advised it’ll be 15mins which I thought was reasonable. On cue lunch was served. Very disappointing Charcoal Boy! 3 tiny wooden skewers cooked on hotplate with absolutely no taste of traditional Lebanese charcoal bbq. Garlic dip almost zero garlic taste or zing. Homos most likely from can. Pickles were ok I guess. Tabouli 90% very coarsely chopped parsley & onion, barely any lemon. Honestly the only thing traditional about the meal was the bakery Lebanese bread. For $28.50 value was 2/10 and they had the audacity to add 2% surcharge charge...
