I'm Middle Eastern and all I have to say is where has feteer been all my life! Mum Feteer is an Egyptian eatery serving their feteer aka flaky pastries layered with meats, cheese, and veggies that's crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. This portion is easily shareable among 2-4 people. The Mixed Feteer is loaded with meats which each have a distinct flavor, the veggies and cheese are an absolute must adding another layer of texture and richness to each bite, and the pastry dough is flaky, buttery, and unbelievably satisfying in all the right ways. I highly recommend adding the white & hot sauces for a better bite. The staff is also extremely friendly and hospitable. I highly recommend trying Mum Feteer. You will be glad you did!

My dad is Egyptian, so food like this carries real meaning for our family, and Sabrys delivered in every way. The moment we walked in, we were met with the kind of warmth and hospitality that makes you feel like a guest of honor. They treat everyone that way, which makes it even more special. The meal began with fresh housemade bread, incredible hummus, baba ganoush, and salad, and then came the fish. Honestly, the best fish I've ever had, and we've dined at wonderful restaurants all over the country. We ordered the grilled platter with calamari, shrimp, and salmon, plus a fried combo that was light and perfectly done. Not greasy, just real home cooking, like your Egyptian grandmother made it. The branzino was outstanding, and the rice brought me straight back to childhood. Every dish tasted like it was made with genuine love and care, because it was. If you want to eat somewhere that feeds your soul as much as your stomach, come here. We'll be back every chance we get.

The owner tells you what is available, and you choose, and then he cooks and serves you. The process is not quick, but we were a family group of five and enjoyed examining the dense decorations of our surroundings while we waited for the delicious food. Our meal included an outstanding beet salad, cauliflower in pomegranate sauce, foul (mashed fava beans with vegetables), lamb shank, lamb tagine, fish in a clay pot, and koshary (a mixture of chickpeas, macaroni, rice, and tomato). Everything was so good, and portions were generous so that there was a good deal left to take home. We would absolutely return and recommend.

While walking along Steinway St on my way home, I couldn't help but notice how many Egyptian…read morerestaurants are in the area. Out of curiosity, I decided to try a place called Taste of Egypt--the colors and design of their signage pulled me right in. Two people at the counter greeted me with so much energy the moment I said hi. I asked about the mixed grill displayed on the menu posted on the clear glass wall, and one of them explained that it includes three different meats, plus rice and veggies--all grilled. The chicken, coated in an orange seasoning, was flavorful and very tender. The beef, on the other hand, was quite tough--definitely for people with strong, full sets of teeth (no pun intended). The third meat was a sausage-like lamb, with a gamey aftertaste that almost made me feel like I could smell the lamb as I ate it. The rice was well-cooked too. If you ask me whether it's worth the $20, I'd say it's a bit on the expensive side. At $15, I'd probably go back for it.

Steinway Street is no Zamalek and I expected a no-frills experience, but we were very underwhelmed by the food offerings. The feteer itself was filled with an artificial tasting blend of American and Cheddar cheese, and was extremely salty. There are some exquisite fries being served up at many establishments in this area, but the ones at Cairo Feteer tasted like a fast food variety. The koshary - usually one of my favorite items - was the most palatable thing we ordered, but the da'ah on the side had almost no flavor, and the whole dish was lacking in flavor.

First off the place is so cute, it's a long narrow restaurant with a good amount of seating, and you can watch them make and bake the feteer fresh to order. The people are so nice there and the food was DELICIOUS I do recommend setting aside some time or calling ahead if you can since it can take around 20 minutes to assemble this delicious creation. Get the mixed meat one and you will not be disappointed. The melty, gooey cheese runs throughout the large hefty chunks of meat sandwiched within this rich, delicious bread that keeps it all together. I ate the whole thing myself in a day.
