About this restaurant

  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
Nestled on the stunning Walsh Bay harbour foreshore, Jounieh offers a contemporary approach to Middle Eastern cuisine, inspired by the rich flavours and traditions of its namesake – the coastal town of Jounieh, Lebanon.

From the bold spices and pickles of the bustling souks to the waterfront and lively promenade, Jounieh embodies the vibrant essence of Lebanese culture. Our menu pays homage to this heritage, blending traditional flavours with modern techniques and the finest Australian produce to create a truly refined dining experience.

Perfectly positioned in Sydney’s cultural heart, near renowned performance venues, we provide a relaxed yet sophisticated atmosphere with breathtaking harbour views. Whether you’re savouring a long, leisurely meal or enjoying an intimate dinner, our indoor and outdoor seating options offer the perfect setting for every occasion.

Jounieh invites you to indulge in a memorable dining experience where time slows down and every bite tells a story.

    Perfectly presented authentic traditional Lebanese food, arak & coffee, with some enhancing modern twists. Staff are friendly & competent, even guessing which dessert we would like. Lovely peaceful setting at Walsh Bay. So easy to lose track of time & run the risk of being late for a performance (several theatres nearby). Would have preferred that the background music be traditional & that the table light not be an electric imitation candle. Have been several times & will be returning. Thank you, Tony!
