  This place honestly feels like home to me. I’ve been coming here for over 4 years, and the quality has always stayed the same same amazing taste, same authentic Egyptian food, and the same kind and friendly staff every single time. You can really tell they care about their customers and the food they serve. The atmosphere is warm, comfortable, and perfect for families. It’s one of those places where you always leave happy and full. Definitely one of my favorite Egyptian restaurants and I’ll keep coming back for years.

  We went there with the whole family and ordered a large amount of food, expecting good service, especially with a bill that ended up being over $160. Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing from start to finish. After spending that much money, I asked for water and was initially given only one bottle for the entire table. I had to ask again just to get enough water for everyone. The waiter never checked on us once. I literally had to walk up to the register myself to ask for cups, and he only handed me two plastic cups. The hookah was also terrible, tasted burnt almost immediately, and after waiting around 40 minutes with nobody checking on us, I had to go find the waiter again just to ask for charcoal. His response was basically to light it up myself because they didn’t have charcoal ready, even though the restaurant only had about three occupied tables at the time. To make things even worse, the bill included charges for TWO hookahs when we only had one. Honestly, I should not have even been charged for that one because the hookah was so bad that I could barely smoke half of it before giving up on it. Very poor customer service, very inattentive staff, and an overall frustrating experience. Definitely not worth the money, and I would not recommend this place to families looking for a good dining experience.

  The BEST koshary I've had in the US! Ever since acquiring the taste in Egypt, it's always been hard to find it here in the US but last night, on a Monday at 11pm, Cairo Restaurant really satiated! It was fresh, well-balanced and so tasty! Trust me, it's worth paying more for "extra sauce"! So delicious, will be back! (And hope they add Sahlab back to the drink menu too 🤞)
