I am visiting DC from the midwest, but I was unexpectedly welcomed home to Egypt for lunch in Dupont Circle. You will find legitimate Egyptian street/comfort food and the staff display true Middle Eastern hospitality & service very rare in America. The music (classic Arabic songs of love and heartbreak lol) and hearing the Egyptian dialect specifically completed the experience.
Flavorful Egyptian cuisine served in a clean, welcoming environment with prompt service. A consistent favorite for our staff.
best Egyptian food in the DMV, great hospitality, clean restaurant
