The best authentic Egyptian restaurant, especially if you love fresh fish, shrimp, and seafood!
We went few times and each time has been even better than the last. The food is consistently delicious, the bread is always fresh and fluffy, and even the salad, rice, and tahini are full of flavor.
We recently brought visitors with us, and they loved everything. They’re still talking about the perfectly marinated shrimp!
A special thank you to George for providing exceptional customer service and making our lunch experience even more enjoyable. We truly appreciate him for his excellent service.
Highly recommended!
Papa K’s has quickly become my favorite seafood spot in Irvine. Everything came out fresh and full of flavor, the portions didn’t disappoint, and the staff made us feel welcome the whole time. You can tell they take pride in what they serve. Already looking forward to coming back! highly recommend
Very bad experience , I ordered by phone one their fish offers then I dinned in restaurant , the order took one hour to get ready instead of 30 minutes , the fish and shrimp had no taste at all very little spicies and food had no taste , salad had no dressing , rice had no spicies as well , I was very late and very hungry so I had to ate it and run to work but it was a very bad experience for me

Today the bread was warmer than the chicken, missing ingredients to make you buy sides to fill in. I actually went to spend my money on family instead of strangers, I regret going here. Treat $1 customers the same as $100 customer is how god can help us expand instead of secret charges.

First time trying them today, absolutely delicious, would definitely recommend this place! I phoned in my order and they let me know how long it would take. When I got there, the person who greeted me was very friendly, made the transaction very easy, and had my order ready to go and even offer to help me carry it to the car. My order was seafood plates and everything including the portions to the seasoning was absolutely fabulous and on point. Thank you very much!
