Four of us tried out Cairo Station for the first time before the Patti Smith show at the Fox. We all agreed the food tastes great, the portions are big, and the place is very cool with Egyptian jazz setting the vibe. Very friendly, a great find. We will be back!

Very nice owner run spot. You can feel the hospitality immediately (they gave us tea for free) the food was super fresh and tasty and the portions were amazing especially considering the price. Found a new go-to spot!

As a New Yorker, I can honestly say, this was the most fresh tasting, flavorful shawarma I’ve ever eaten. 11/10
Delicious and fresh food. I have never eaten anything like it before, such as shawarma chicken. The next day I tried kofta, and it was very delicious. In addition to the good treatment of all the workers, it was a wonderful experience.

We went on First Friday, August 1 2025 and this place was hopping at 2am. I can recommended the chicken shawarma. I want to try their desserts, which by the time my group of intrepid Oaklanders made it there was sold out.
If you are inebriated or high. This us the place to get some bomb dot com Egyptian style middle eastern food. The ambiance is cool too. Highly recommend, and we will be back.

The best Egyptian food you’ll have in the bay area. The customer service is amazing, Elsayed will make sure you have a good experience. I had the koshary and its very authentic. Definitely will be coming back.

Honestly the chicken shawarma was aight. I would say that the sauce was way too much and I felt unhealthy eating here. The overall sentiment is cool to support a local, but I wish it was better food and environment.
Tzatziki tasted like mayo 🤮
