Customer Reviews

It was confusing walking in as this was my first time here. No one greeted us at the door. Someone eventually came down to the front and told us it was open seating. We ordered water while waiting on everyone else in our group. They have bottled water which I think was $2 per bottle. They have a nice variety of vegetarian options. The food was really good. I would suggest allowing the cauliflower wings to substitute on the platter. They have a rooftop. One choice for a mocktail. Otherwise, you can create your own but it's the same price as a cocktail.
The Egyptian is a nice place to visit but I wouldn’t recommend going every day. I was here for a conference and came two different days. I give them credit because the vibe is guys with headphones- zoned out on their laptops in flow state and hyper focus. Meaning, you stay for 5 or 6 hours and the server takes care of you. Between the two days I spent well over $100 and probably toasted some parts of my lungs - but there are far worse habits. I like the decor. The food is very good. The gyro pizza was probably the best thing I tried. The tea was excellent and the $12 pit has good value because it has about 5 or 6 cups. It pays for itself at the third cup. Thanks for the hospitality WiFi access is good.
I need to make this crystal clear: last night was one of the most unsafe, reckless experiences I’ve ever had at a venue. A man got into the Egyptian Room with a gun. He brandished it inside and outside the venue, pointing it toward people and even toward the glass. This is not hearsay—I saw it happen. There was a security guard at the door who is supposed to be checking bags and patting people down, yet somehow this man made it through with a firearm. When I reported it to security, instead of taking action, the guard blamed me. He said I "escalated the situation" by telling on the man. They never called the police. They didn’t shut things down. They carried on business as usual as if nothing happened. This is exactly how mass shootings happen—when venues prioritize convenience and ticket sales over basic gun safety and accountability. Egyptian Room put hundreds of lives at risk by failing to enforce security and by silencing the people who tried to do the right thing. Until management takes real responsibility and implements proper safety measures, I would strongly urge anyone to think twice before stepping foot in this venue.
Came from out of state looking for a cool spot to check out, and definitely found it. The vibes were super chill, and a amazing rooftop bar!
I did not try the food yet but it smelled amazing and the way people was ordering told me a lot! Love the ambiance of it! Prices were decent, definitely will be back! I love a laid back cool mood for a Wednesday
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.
I don’t know what’s going on. But they are clearly unorganized. The bouncer at the door is nice but the servers are not equipped to handle large parties. The new girl is overwhelmed I guess but that’s not excuse for poor service. There were several tables open and the server for them was missing which cause this back up. The server we do have is very nice her name is Nijah.
