Question 1

Is El Jannah Chicken halal certified?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely! El Jannah is very proud of their halal status. They state clearly on their official website that all their restaurants are 100% halal certified. They work with halal-certified suppliers for all their meat and chicken, and all other ingredients are halal too. You can dine there with confidence!

Question 2

Do they serve alcohol or pork?

Accepted Answer

No, El Jannah does not serve any pork or alcohol. Their entire menu is 100% halal, so you don't have to worry about cross-contamination or non-halal items being prepared in the same kitchen.

Question 3

Is the meat hand slaughtered (zabihah)?

Accepted Answer

El Jannah has confirmed on their website that while all their chicken is halal certified by the ICCV (Islamic Co-ordinating Council of Victoria), it is machine slaughtered. This is a common practice in Australia, but it's good information to have if you specifically prefer hand-slaughtered meat.

Question 4

Are there prayer facilities nearby?

Accepted Answer

El Jannah in the CBD does not have a prayer room inside the restaurant itself. However, being centrally located on Swanston Street, there are several mosques and city prayer rooms within a short walking or tram distance.

Question 5

Can they accommodate large Muslim family gatherings?

Accepted Answer

El Jannah is great for family meals and takeaways, with large 'Family Feast' options on their menu. The restaurant has a fast-casual dine-in setting. While they don't take bookings, it's a popular spot for groups to enjoy a meal together. They also offer catering for larger events.
