A lovely experience with Egyptian food, a bit over priced.House red wine was awful and overpriced, $17 for 9oz wine; very disappointed.

I recently tried this restaurant for a meal delivery, and I was quite disappointed with the experience. Despite the high prices, the portions were surprisingly small, and the quality of the food was only average. Given the price point, I don't think I will be ordering from there again. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant for delivery.

Amazing food, sincere service & beautiful atmosphere. I'd recommend the lamb shank (I'm not usually a lamb person but their's is delicious!!) & the om ali (warm bread pudding).Thanks Pharaoh's for a wonderful dining experience!

I wish we had saved room for dessert. We started with the dolma and falafel, then moved onto the Chef's platter which had a little bit of everything. I kept going back to the Baba Ganouj, so good! Next time I will save room for dessert.

Each month we read a book and choose a place that's befitting of the book and this one took us to Pharaohs. The owners were so gracious and welcomed our book club in, while we fumbled through the menu. WOW! Was not expecting to have such great food and service. We learned about the history and some customs. The food was on point and we were all so full by the end. If you want a great atmosphere with the food and service to match you NEED to get here!!

This is a hidden gem in Edmonton! Try something new and head to pharaohs! The food is great and the owners are so incredibly friendly and kind. We had a kushari (which was amazing) and the desserts are out of this world. Seriously. I would come just for the dessert! Pharaohs is family run and everything is home made (down to the bread and sausages), so expect a wait but I promise it's worth it.

We had a fantastic dinner at Pharaoh’s tonight with tremendous service & interesting conversation with the owner. The food was excellent, particularly the okra & lamb Tajeen. The dessert was also amazing including a special apricot pudding which was available this evening ? Be sure to have the fresh Ganzabil tea ~ full of fresh ginger & cinnamon. We will definitely be back to this place!

The food is wholesome, delicious, and the closest you could get to home-made authentic Egyptian food. This is the only place in Edmonton where you can get authentic Egyptian falafel. We ordered a combo plate for brunch that had fava beans, falafel, salad, eggplant, and pita bread. The falafel was crispy from the outside, soft and fluffy from the inside. The fava beans are cooked the authentic Egyptian way. The portions are reasonable; the quality is superb. The hostess is very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely go back.
