About Salwa's Garden

Nestled in a 100-year-old cottage surrounded by lush greenery, Salwa’s Garden brings a casual style of Lebanese dining to Oatley Avenue in Oatley. Fairy lights twinkle in the paved courtyard, overflowing with blooming plants and hanging baskets, while indoors presents a warm and welcoming vibe in keeping with the cottage feel. Take a seat at a rustic timber slab table and start with smoked eggplant dip with tahini, lemon, garlic and olive oil; before devouring a lamb shawarma platter, with tomato, capsicum, onion, tahini sauce, dip and salad. Perhaps flame-grilled marinated chicken fillets tempt, with puréed garlic on the side; while those who can’t choose may opt for the set menu with dips, Lebanese sausages, lamb kofta, grilled chicken, lamb shawarma and Mansaf rice.

Delicious food in a quirky garden setting
I’m a repeat customer at this gem of a restaurant. The food is always authentic and full of flavour. The garden setting is perfect for a sunny lunch or dinner with family and friends. Well worth trying.

Great Middle Eastern cuisine
Excellent restaurant - a must go to. The food is delicious, and the service are excellent. BYO wine & beer make this great value for money.

The best Middle Eastern cuisine
This place is a real gem. The family run business creates authentic and delicious food. Prices are very reasonable given the size of the dishes which are all suitable to share. Staff are friendly and helpful and the garden setting is perfect for lunch or dinner. Close to Oatley Train station. It’s a 5 minute walk to the best Lebanese food you’ve ever tasted!

Definitely a hidden gem!
This beautiful restaurant served the most delicious food, the flavours were amazing and portions were definitely ample. The service was pleasant and professional. We sat in the outdoor garden area which was an absolute delight. We definitely spread the word and can’t wait to go back to try other dishes.
