Treat yourself to a modern Middle Eastern experience at Lillah on Longueville Road in Lane Cove.
Meaning ‘beautiful night’ in Arabic, Lillah celebrates all things Middle Eastern in surrounds of archways, a feature skylight and exposed brick walls, creating a space resembling a courtyard. A façade of white and black geometric tiles gives way to an interior vibe of grey washed wood table settings and ivy-covered ceiling, enticing diners to linger over meals with a cocktail in hand; perhaps starting your adventure with the beautiful Old School Baba Ganoush.
For the main affair, delve into the likes of their most popular Sticky Date 12h Slow Cooked Lamb Shoulder or the Beetroot Basteeya with sautéed chard, crumbled goat cheese and crispy fried flatbread. Don’t forget to order a Cauliflower Falafel with creamy hummus, muhammara and crispy falafel crust to accompany your main dish as they are an absolute must.
What a terrific restaurant! Great flavours. Not too heavy. Really tasty cocktail list and friendly staff.
