I had been wanting to try the Egyptian restaurant for sometime. The restaurant is very plain with café style seating. Not a lot of warmth and ambience. The proprietor, however, was jovial, and wonderful to talk with. He was happy to offer suggestions and explain his culture and, the food of his childhood. Overall, the food was Egyptian, but reminded me of a low level American restaurant. Although I will definitely try it again, mostly because of the proprietor, I think it was mildly lacking in flavor… EXCEPT, I do have to say that he has the greatest baklava I have ever had in my entire life!!! it was also pretty neat to be able to drink sodas that weren’t “American.”

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We ate at their stand during the Saturday farmers market downtown Appleton. We loved the gollash because it had great texture and flavor. The koftah had good flavor too but was a bit dry. I'll get it in the burger form instead of on rice next time. Fabulous falafel. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Had the pleasure of coming in off the road to lovely conversation and some of the best food I have enjoyed in a long time! Definitely recommend to anyone in the area!
