The Egyptian

"It kinda hurts to write a not great review for this place because I want to like it. The food is great, the atmosphere is great, but the staff there is so hit / miss and doesn’t care at all about the customers. You can expect to be sitting around waiting for a while at any point while they sit around and talk in the back. Trying to place a take out order you get out on hold for 20 Mins and they never pick up, it’s like they truly could care less about the customers. Edit: I understand there are busy times, but that’s when it’s important for communication over the phone for Carry out orders, not just rudely saying “hold on” and then putting someone on hold forever . Literally 20 minutes before I hung up cuz I figured I would be on hold for the rest of the night."

"The waiter we had last night was so sweet. I wish I would’ve caught his name. Food was different but pretty good."

"Good staff. Food was okie. Vegetarian options are available. ( good options). Usually very busy place. The place might reserve your place in advance , please call and confirm. Usually a smoky interior. Good flavors of hookah. Quick service. People with asthma or smoke allergies, please be cautious. Be prepare for security check at the entrance. Appreciate the place for taking extra steps for the safety of everyone. Minimum charge paid parking available right outside the cafe. Wheelchair accessible."

"Vibe from outside looks like a quiet place, but the moment you hop in it’s crazy loud. We did a takeout yday for 4 Beef and 1 Chicken Shawarma and it took at least 25 minutes for them to take their order and another 45 minutes to hand over. Never mind the above, the bill came out and we see an 18% Gratuity added for this takeout order. Which is very weird but that’s okay again. Coming home opening the take out boxes seeing the whole ordered messed up, giving us 4 Chicken and 1 Beef instead of what we ordered. Lol big NO. Never gonna visit this place again for such a horrific experience."

"I’ve known about the Egyptian hookah spot for a while now. I went a few times to jump in quickly and meet friends and it always seemed very dark and not that exciting. , After trying the food for the first time a few weeks ago I can’t stop coming back! Everything I’ve ordered from here has been delicious. From the chicken wrap to the rice to pretty much everything on the menu comes out delicious. And the hookah is great also. This has become one of my new chill spots not just for food but also to work, and smoke some good hookah"
