Soo many options to have middle eastern breakfast and decided to do Egyptian again because it's next to Kunafa's (next stop, lol) . Service was amazing, the owner was super nice. We went for fateer pizza...meat and cheese and hawashi (yes, diet starts Monday!!) Food was sooo fresh and tastefu and kabeeeer. Super happy we stopped by!

We tried Koshary, bechemal pasta with ground beef and mixed grill plate with beef and chicken. The Koshary and Bechamel Pasta was amazing. Extremely unique flavors. Mixed grill plate was like any other Kabab place. Everything is made to order and fresh. The service was phenomenal. Owner/chef Amrou guides you through the menu and explains his dishes before you order them. You can tell he cooks with passion and love. We will definitely go back. They have some other items that we look forward to try like their traditional Egyptian breakfast, falafel, etc.

Probably one of the bestest hidden gems that must be discovered being surrounded by food haven. I must say it exceeded my expectations 👍🏻 I started with eggplant mousakka and it was delicious with extremely harmonious flavour. No tanginess or sourness. Just perfect. The Macaroni Béchamel was rich & creamy with very tasteful beef. The Hawaoshi is definitely a must, very authentic! We got to try their newest addition their charcoal grilled kababs. The Mix Kabab platter had everything for a complete meal shareable with family. The beef Kafta and lamb cubes very melting in the mouth. So were chicken Kafta & Shish Tawouk. Infused with flavours and grilled on charcoal they’re supremely delish. The drinks are also very refreshing 😋👍🏻 You can tell how fresh the food is from the moment you take your first bite. Everything served here is Uber fresh & tasteful. Do check out this amazing Egyptian restaurant with the most authentic Egyptian food Highly recommended! 👌🏻

I had a delightful experience at this restaurant this afternoon. The convenient location and ample parking set the tone for a positive visit. The restaurant's cleanliness and well-organized menu made it easy to explore a variety of traditional Egyptian dishes, which were promptly served. The food, including سجق, كبده, حواوشي, and cairo royal beef, exceeded my expectations in taste and quality. Upon the chef's recommendation, I tried حلاوة بالقشطة, and it was truly exceptional. The freshly baked "فينو" bread added another layer of freshness to the meal. The staff were not only efficient but also friendly and welcoming. The clean and comfortable washroom facilities were an added plus. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone in search of delicious and authentic Egyptian dishes. A big thank you to the entire team for providing such a memorable dining experience!
