our team

RASHAYS® IS PROUDLY AUSTRALIA FAMILY OWNED AND OPERATED SINCE 1998 WHEN OWNERS, RAMI & SHANNON OPENED THE VERY FIRST RESTAURANT IN LIVERPOOL, NSW. THIS IS HOW THE NAME CAME TO BE – A COMBINATION OF THE OWNER’S NAMES.

Rami & Shannon’s dream was to create a place where people could come together and enjoy great food and have a good time.

Their first café was a huge hit with a warm and welcoming environment locals called home. Fresh meals were served lightning fast, although these humble beginnings couldn’t have predicted the journey they would take us on.

Times have changed and thankfully so has our hair. Still, the RASHAYS® passion for Aussie food and family continues to grow. All was made possible with CEO and lifelong friend Roman Tepes.
