Book NowAbout Henrietta Charcoal Chicken Surry Hills
Charcoal smoke and garlic toum set the tempo at this buzzing Surry Hills diner, elevating suburban chicken-shop comfort into a spirited sit-down spread. Expect juicy slow-cooked chicken torn straight from the grill, wrapped in warm Lebanese flatbread with hot chips, crunchy pickles, and house baba ghanoush. Regulars turn out for the bustling banquet plates and house-batched margaritas, while weekday diners drop in for crisp chicken bowls loaded with spiced eggplant and hummus. Gluten-averse regulars don't have to skip the wrap routine either—the kitchen swaps in warm corn tortillas to dredge through pungent garlic sauce and green zhug.
- Juicy charcoal chicken: Slow-cooked on the grill with punchy garlic toum, pickles, and hot chips wrapped in soft Lebanese bread.
- Full dine-in bar vibe: Table service, craft margaritas, and generous banquet platters turn casual roast chicken into a vibrant night out.
- Gluten-free tortilla option: Warm corn tortillas arrive as an easy swap for flatbread to scoop up house dips and chargrilled meats.

Why Henrietta Charcoal Chicken Stands Out
Why Surry Hills diners choose Henrietta for elevated charcoal chicken and relaxed gatherings
Juicy Charcoal Chicken with Classic Lebanese Sides
Henrietta cooks tender, juicy charcoal chicken accompanied by garlic toum, pickles, and warm Lebanese bread.
The charcoal chicken was excellent—incredibly juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. It got even better when you wrap it in the Lebanese bread with the toum, chips, and tabbouleh!
Vania Salim Dedicated Gluten-Free Corn Tortilla Alternative
Diners requiring gluten-free options are provided with warm corn tortillas so they can still enjoy wraps with their chicken and dips.
Lots of gluten free options - and instead of bread they give you corn tortillas which were a really great pairing with the chicken.
Sarah Joshi Generous Feast Meals Built for Group Dinners
Shareable whole-chicken feasts and banquet setups provide generous portions that easily feed gatherings of friends and family.
Had 2 whole chicken (meal),with the corn ribs & the eggplant! It was 5 of us, and we were so full after! Even had some chicken left.
Victorious Crowd-Pleasing Menus for Shared Gatherings
The versatile menu of chargrilled chicken, varied mezze sides, and sauces accommodates broad group preferences seamlessly.
All the sides and sauces were delicious, and it’s the kind of menu that really works for a group because everything is such a crowd pleaser.
Samuel Pritchard Attentive, Welcoming Table Service
Staff offer genuine hospitality with proactive check-ins and thoughtful service that makes diners feel looked after.
The staff were warm, attentive and naturally hospitable without hovering. It is rare to feel that looked after in a modern venue but they pulled it off effortlessly.
The Third Bite Contemporary Dine-In Vibe with Full Cocktail Bar
Dine-in guests can pair charcoal rotisserie chicken with crafted cocktails and beer in a stylish Surry Hills dining room.
Massive thanks to Ornina for the unreal service, such a legend. And the Matador Margaritas?! WOW.
