Naji’s Charcoal Chicken & Kebabs – Arncliffe NSW

Naji's Charcoal Chicken & Kebabs

Operating since 2002, Naji’s, just across from Arncliffe train station, is as popular as ever. Michael Naji’s emphasis on quality ingredients and cleanliness ensures that customers keep coming back.

“Arncliffe is made up of many diverse cultures; Bayside Council is said to have the most diverse population in Sydney. It’s important to provide food that is acceptable to all cultures and tastes,” says Michael. And, as a local councillor re-elected in 2024 council elections, he would know. “Serving the community gives me great satisfaction. On top of that, what gives me a greater satisfaction is when people are eating here and enjoying great tasting, fresh, good quality food.”

Before Michael puts anything on the Naji’s menu, the whole family taste-tests it. “More opinions ensures we get a lot of ticks. On a daily basis the family are involved in the business; all of my family, all of my kids, all eat from the shop. As I say, ‘if the owners eat from their own shop it must be good food,” he laughs.

“I’ve recently developed a new recipe for marinade, using traditional Middle Eastern flavours. We use it on our charcoal chicken and it has increased our sales triple fold. It’s unbelievable!” he says. “When you see the same customers coming back, then you know you are selling a good product.”
