Ethan McAvoy I was not sure what to expect of this little restaurant tucked away next to the local Walmart, but when I walked in and heard the music and the owners accent, I knew it was going to be legit.
First off, the owner and the young fella (son?) behind the counter were super friendly and helpful; and I mean SUPER friendly. I had never been treated so well in a restaurant before. Constantly checking on us, being talkative and friendly, offering us samples, etc,. My girlfriend ordered one (1) sahlab drink (look it up) and the owner brought me a small cup of it as well just so I could have my own. Also, as we were getting ready to leave, the owner brought us each a small Egyptian cookie. He is a such a kind man. Id pay extra for that kind of service. They dont ask for tips nor is it an option on the ordering screen, but I will bring cash specifically to tip them next time. You will be treated like family and friends.
As far as the food goes; incredible. I got a steak shawarma wrap with muhammara sauce with a side of seasoned fries and a spinach & feta sambosa. It was delicious. I was stuffed long before I could eat everything, but I still kept going since it was so good. Very authentic cuisine by people who care about the food they serve. This is not some imitation Mediterranean/Middle Eastern restaurant started by the snobby, middle-aged couple who went to the same school as you. This is the real deal and you will be pleased with every aspect.
There are many options to choose from and if you dont know what a certain item is, they will describe it to the best of their ability or even let you sample it. Theyre proud of what they make so they are happy to let you try. Lots of good dessert and drink options as well if you have a sweet tooth. I will certainly come back for more.
The inside is very clean, well-organized, and modestly decorated. The music was a good touch too. Im telling you; there is some love put into this place.
Im not one to ever write reviews, but I feel that Pharaohs Feast was deserving of another 5-star review. They have gained a repeat customer. Thank you guys.
