Came for a meal before a concert nearby during the pre-rush so it was empty but the food and service was great. Good sampling of Egyptian food.
Authentic Egyptian food served by a passionate chef. Absolutely loved it
Food and entire team were fantastic. Sat on the patio for a lovely setting sun. Sharing platter for 2. Amazing sampling of Egyptian foods. The Dokka, Samara Baladi, Koshari, Tameya, ful and hummus. It was vegan and it was great. The Bird Nest Konafa was a tasty finish. Loved it. Will make it a regular choice.

The restaurant has a chill, street-food-style atmosphere with a few tables, making it a more casual eatery than a full-on restaurant.

The family-style sharing plates allow guests to try a little bit of everything, and many mention the lentil humus and Dokka as must-tries. The pickles are noted as the perfect palate cleanser. The owner’s love for food is evident, as they take the time to explain each dish, enhancing the dining experience.
Overall, Papyrus is a solid choice for casual Middle Eastern food, with a simple menu, fair prices, and friendly service, making it a great spot for those looking to try something new. While the service can be a little slow at times, the tasty and well-presented dishes make it worth the wait.
