I dined in one night and I have to admit the food is genuinely amazing. But the service we received…read morethat night was painnnnfully slow. So slow we could've gone to another restaurant, been sat, and eaten a meal before we ate our meal here. When we walked in, there was only another table or two seated inside so we were like okay not busy, we'll be in and out, but that was far from the case. There was only one server that night that did almost literally everything, and it was hard to find or flag her down. More people were starting to come in and to our dismay THEIR orders were being taken first after we'd been ready and just sitting there for literally more than 15-20 minutes. Ridiculous is an understatement; we were also sitting right in front of the kitchen so I don't understand how she kept passing by us without batting an eye. There were tables that came after us and left before us, truly disappointing. At one point when we were finally able to get her attention, she said "let me drop this water off and I'll be right back." Spoiler alert - she didn't. She dropped it off and went to tend to other tables before finally coming back to us. Besides all of that, the food was good and eased our frustration a little bit. We ordered the trio dip as a starter and circling back to the service complaint for a second, we thought she would've put it in before more guests started pouring in, but she didn't!! So we were left waiting with no food whatsoever, everything ended up coming out at the same time. Anyway, moving on - the food was seasoned very well, and the flavor was all there, perfect and just the way I expected. It satisfied my cravings and I have no complaints about that. Overall, I think the establishment could be a little better. It's not a huge dining area so I didn't expect service to take that long. I don't mean to be harsh and I understand there was only one server, but I don't remember waiting so long for my order to be taken at a restaurant. We were there for definitely more than 1 hour 50 minutes for a party of 2. I look forward to eating here again but perhaps another location.

I had been wanting to dine in at a local Egyptian restaurant. I didn't realize Sphinx was nearby…read morebut came across it as my niece and I were searching for something to eat. I had also remembered the restaurant from seeing a recent IG post about it by DinewithKent. I had falafel, lentil soup and koshary. The falafel wasn't the best I've ever had but it was good enough that my niece and I ordered a second helping after finishing the first round. The lentil soup was good but also not the best ever and you have to eat it quickly because if you don't it becomes pastey, like you're eating lentil refried beans I had koshary for my main course and it was a bit vinegary. My niece, had a chicken dish and the chicken was cooked evenly but was bland. The ambiance was eclectic and interesting, with High School Musical playing on one tv, an Egyptian movie playing on another, and Christmas directions in one corner and Christmas music playing in the background from the same corner. Lol, I love places like this, unique and quirky. The owner is an absolute sweetheart and a low-key flirt. He prepared and served the food and I enjoyed chatting with him about Egypt and showing him pics from my trip. The food was ok but I would definitely return to support the awesome business owner and to take in some Egyptian and year round Christmas vibes when I crave them.

Don't sleep on this place! The location may be unsuspecting, but the food is absolutely delicious…read more We tried the eggplant appetizer, khoshari, chicken kabobs, lentil soup, and Om Ali for dessert--and everything was freshly prepared and so flavorful. The Om Ali was insanely good--served warm with just the right combination of textures from the nuts, coconut, and soaked bread.

We'll be back for sure. My wife and I came back the next day and had dinner at the restaurant with my parents. Delicious food.

The potions are hearty, and the flavors are fairly solid. I wish the garlic sauce had a bit more flavor, and the fries were a bit soggy by the time I got to them, but the dharma itself was tasty There is a small parking lot out front, an be careful, the entrances to the parking lot as a steep incline and we scrapped the bottom of our car The interior is incredibly spacious, to the point where most of the space isn't being utilized at all. There's some decor, a the place is well lit. It does feels like an older space, and it's not overly appealing to dine-in. The staff were friendly both in person and on the phone. They were efficient, and the order came out in no time at all Some tips: Order ahead (by phone), and have your order waiting for you when you arrive. The fries might get a little soggy. And again, watch out for the sleep incline at the entrance so you don't scrape your car Cheers!!
