Date night with my son at a new spot, and it did not disappoint! This Mediterranean restaurant is Egyptian-themed, with décor fit for the kings of old--every detail adds to the charm. We dined on a weekday, so the atmosphere was calm and inviting, with music at the perfect level for conversation. The service was fast and efficient, and the food was absolutely something to write home about. A wonderful blend of great flavors, beautiful ambiance, and warm hospitality. We'll definitely be back! read more

If you're looking for a chill place with a pretty cool atmosphere that serves great food, has kick'n drinks, thump'n music, entertainment, mega hook-a options, and a fantastic bartender... this is the spot! I mean how much more do you want. The chicken kabob was outstanding and the stuffed pita had a great flavor! Seriously the food was really good. I mean it... I eat middle eastern food quite a bit and this was very good... even the veggies were good! There was a belly dancer... she could shake shake that thang... seriously she was a good dancer. At one point she even had a lot up outfit that was cool to watch. It was not very busy in here for a Friday night but that was great... there was no fighting for the servers attention, it wasn't crazy in here, we could get drinks easily, and we could see the show with no obstructions. Things start going down, as far at the dancer, at around 10pm and the location is open until 2am. From what they said they have belly dancing classes on Thursdays and actual dance shows on Friday and Saturday. They have a large selection of hook-a options... things with different fills for the bases, a bunch of flavors combos, and even offer a delta 8 option. The decor is cool... I really am not sure why it is not busier... it has everything you could ask for! Maybe it is just not known? Well let's make it known! Let's sum this up... A cool place Thump'n music Great food Kick'n drinks Mega Hook-a options A stellar bar tender Entertainment... A belly dancer And they are open till 2AM! What in the heck are you waiting for!! Try this place out! read more

Did you know that this is the only Egyptian restaurant in Atlanta? I had another event at pharaohs palace and was able to sample a lot of different dishes. I will tell you this was a wonderful experience with some amazing dishes. The owner was very nice and explained a lot of the dishes to us. As far as as appetizers went, I really enjoyed the hummus, the falafel, and the baba ghanoush. The falafel had cheese inside that added a great element to it. Also, the cauliflower was really good. When the entrées were brought out, I really enjoy this platter that had lamb and beef on it. Both were very flavorful and I highly recommend. The shrimp dish was also really good the sauce for it was amazing. and then there was a dish that was like a cross between a baked ziti in the lasagna. That was really delicious as well. The only thing that I didn't really care for was their traditional dish that was like a spaghetti but I just wasn't a fan of it. I highly recommend if you're looking to explore new flavors to try out pharaohs palace. You will even be in for a treat with entertainment because they have belly dancers there as well. This will also be a great place to have a birthday celebration. read more

While trying to decide on what I wanted for dinner, I thought about the various cuisines and restaurants around Atlanta that I haven't had yet. As I looked at my personal list, I decided to seek out Egyptian food. I have friends from Egypt, and while I've had some of their home cooked dishes, I was excited to share with them about the new dishes that I tried. I popped on UberEats and ordered takeout. It goes without saying that I can't speak on service or ambiance yet. For my dishes, I decided to go with one appetizer and one entree. I chose the Moussaka (Served cold. A delicious Egyptian dish consisting of sliced eggplant and mixed peppers fried to perfection and then sauteed with our special tomato sauce) for my app, after many a back and forth because everything sounded great. For my entree, I went with the Koshari (Koshari is the Egyptian national dish, it brings together the poor and the rich. This hearty dish is composed of rice, lentils, chickpeas, pasta, and topped with a spicy tomato sauce and fried onions. You will understand Egypt better with the first bite. Served with rice and mixed vegetables) because I wanted to try the national dish. As soon as I opened my bag, I was excited to see pita bread! I didn't know that this came with either of these options so that was a nice surprise. It also came with some type of dressing that was good. I can't place exactly what it is. My favorite taste was probably the moussaka. I scooped it onto the pita bread and dove in. It was so flavorful. The pita bread itself tasted a little hard, but not bad. The Koshari was very interesting! In the most respectful way, it's like a hodge podge of bases you might select one of, but this one's got it all! Spaghetti noodles, macaroni noodles, rice, AND lentils! It's fun! The crispy chickpeas and fried onions make for a nice topping. My critique is that I wish it was saucier. Perhaps the dish doesn't travel the greatest and maybe the noodles soaked it up, but there really wasn't much sauce on it. Also, just to note: one of my bites had a giant piece of what tasted like cloves in it. The rest of my bites felt pretty cohesive and mixed in though. As for prices, this place feels a bit on the pricier side. However, to me, it was worth the experience. I look forward to dining in next time and bringing my boyfriend with me because I know he will really enjoy it as well. Can't wait to try more dishes soon! read more

Food poisoning!! The night we ate here for a friend's birthday this past weekend, her husband got food poisoning from the "Mac and cheese" like dish. Oddly, my husband and I ordered it too, but the server came out and apologetically said, "I'm sorry, we only have one left." We let our friend have it. But... what does that "one left" mean? If chefs were cooking, they may have run out of an ingredient, but "one left" told us that their food must be outsourced? It was a VERY odd statement. Wherever they got it from, it was SOUR!! Also, they put unwrapped straws in our drinks barehanded!! A young guy working there picked up the straws and placed one in each of our drinks. Needless to say, we didn't drink them. We will never go back. Mia was awesome, but outside of her and the hummus (likely outsourced), we don't trust this place at all. read more

Found this through a T-Mobile promotion so we made reservations for a birthday celebration. We arrived on time and were welcomed in and selected our table. The menu was a QR-Scan away on our mobile devices. We selected the MEZZA SAMPLER to begin with and enjoyed this with pita bread while the MACARONI BESHEMEL was being prepared. My wife ordered the KOSHARI and I had the EGYPTIAN SALAD. These were all very generous portions and my wife and I shared our meals. Our son had nearly a third of the BESHEMEL dish. The chef took very good care of us and visited the table several times. He shared some preparation experience that involved pan frying the lentils until they reach a certain color and then adding water to prevent them from getting mushy. It was a great experience read more

My friend recommended this place after a movie premier that night. We wound up going to Alpharetta and had an amazing time. The owner was actually there this night and he showed everyone just as much hospitality as the staff. Food, drinks, and music were superb. Parking is tight so be aware you may have to park wAayyyy in the back lol Small place but definitely worth the drive. Looking forward to coming back. read more

Ordered the Pharoah's Palace Mixed Grill which was strangely $45 on uber eats, and $35 on grubhub. Had an uber eats coupon so after running both numbers, it was cheaper. No menu pics so not sure what the actual cost will be, but yelp had a 20% off Tue-Thur so that's probably the better bet. On to the food, I really enjoyed all the different meats. 2 nice lamb chops, beef, koubideh, and chicken. The chicken was charred completely black though. I still ate it. Being Egyptian food, which was my first time, it's a bit smokier and pungent than Mediterranean style, so it was a nice little change. My only knock was that there were too many green peppers where other veggies might have been better, but that must be the Egyptian style. All in all, delicious. I got 3 meals out of it, and it microwaves quite well. :) read more

Dont leave many reviews on Yelp, but this restaurant is incredible!!!! Food is delicious and tasty, especially if you like your food to have flavor. Definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Service, ambiance and food were great. The chicken kabobs were the best. Their version of red velvet cake dessert was good as well. If you are interested in the belly dancing that doesn't get started until 8pm. We were there early so it was relatively quiet. Really good food and service - highly recommended read more

The service and atmosphere was wonderful, the belly dancer was friendly and amazing, and the dj was accommodating with the music which made us want to dance. We celebrated my birthday and it was a fabulous treat. The food was good and had a good variety of middle eastern food that I expect to see. read more

So to my surprise this restaurant is located in like a small shopping center nevertheless parking was easy but then again I was there around 6pm I imagine parking can get hectic once there's a crowd. Anyhoo upon entering I felt the Egyptian vibe. The space was smaller than I thought but it was still very nice and they have live belly dancers on Friday and Saturday nights!! The food was really delicious I ordered the fried calamari and peppers and a chicken flatbread. Everything on the menu has an Egyptian name and they made me a pretty drink with flowers can't remember the name of it oh and I ordered this red velvet cake for dessert that was also good. I will definitely be returning! Until next time SYOY!! read more

This place is super chill and something different to do in alpharetta ! They have a good variety of drinks and food ! The belly dancer makes this place a fun experience! I definitely recommend a hookah! read more

We came here for my Birthday just to try something different and ethnic. The entire experience from the ambiance, service and food was absolutely horrible. They had one waiter on a Sunday evening and we barely saw him we had to wait almost 30 min after our appetizer for him to come take our entree orders. Our food literally came out one person at a time over a 20 min period. By the time the last person got their food, the others finished their because we got tired of waiting and food was getting cold. We ordered lamb chops, salmon and lamb shank dishes and every dish was over cooked and tough. The rice pyramids we too moist and sticky. Honestly, this was one of the worst dining experiences I have had in the Atlanta metro area. read more

Best Mediterranean food with Egyptian flavor. Great service and beautiful ambiance made me feel like a king!

My cousin chose this restaurant to celebrate her birthday. The service was SO slow that we were here for 3 hrs! Drinks took 45 mins to come out and food took a hour and a half. The owner (I'm assuming) said his lamb was the best ever. It was actually overcooked and very dry. Wasn't impressed. The belly dancing was cool although she only danced to about 2 songs once a hour. read more

June 2022* S U M M A R Y Wowwww Yelp. You really let me down on this one. My mouth was watering upon arrival and by the time I left, it was my biggest restaurant regret of June 2022. I was 70$ poorer and craving Divan. T A S T E Appetizers Falafel: DRYYYYY. DRYYYYY. DRYYYYY. I've eaten falafel near and far. Even during my visit to Israel (where I had the best falafel ever) and this was a poor representation. As soon as it hit my mouth, it was like a powder bomb exploded. It just scrambled apart. Nothing, even hummus, could save it. We told the manager and he said it was his special recipe and included fava beans. It's a fail. Hummus: Decent. Not as smooth as I prefer. Comes with soft pita which is a win. Chicken Flatbread: The manager gave us this as a comp because we didn't like the falafel. This was actually really good once we took it home and placed it in the oven. I tried one at the restaurant and it wasn't crispy enough. Main: Lamb chops : Sorry but I compare every lamb chop in ATL to Divan and this was nowhere up to par. The flavor was actually ok but the chips were soooo tiny and skinny. Like baby lamb chops. And they were overcooked. I like my lamb chops a succulent medium and these were well done. The three rice pyramids were an interesting choice but not enough rice. The veggies were DELICIOUS! We skipped drinks and that was probably a good choice. S E R V I C E This is 100% where they failed! They lost me. This service was some of the worst service I have had all year. Without a doubt. Horrible. To be clear, the waitress was nice... when we could get a hold of her. She literally came to our table every 30 minutes. 30 long minutes. Including, if you ordered something. So water took 30 minutes to arrive. When we were first seated it took about 20 minutes for her to greet us. Our appetizers and mains came out at the same time (I ordered them together because we didn't know when we would see her next) and that took about 30 to 40 minutes. Somebody help me understand. Even to get the check took over 30 minutes. At some point I was waving down other people and just trying to get all my requests in whenever I could see her because it was once in a blue moon. During our visit the Owner/Manager also came over. He didn't seem to be open to our criticism, which we gave politely (dry falafel was the only complaint). He also stopped us before we were seated asking if we had a reservation, which we did. It seemed like he was going to stop us from sitting. The place was half empty the entire 2.5 hours we were there. A M B I E N C E We came on a Saturday night and it was very dark inside with some colored lights. The ambience was OK to me. It was a little cliché with the pictures of the Gyptian's on the wall but I love a good costume restaurant. It was just difficult to see your food. The issue was the music. It was louder than a club! You could not speak to the person sitting 1 foot away from you much less hear your own thoughts. I did enjoy the belly dancer but she only dance for about 10 minutes every hour at the end of the hour. P R I C E Hummus $11. Falafel 12$. Chicken flatbread 19$ (comped). Lamb chops 38$. R A T I N G 3 stars off because the food simply isn't worth the cost in taste or quality, service was slow and inattentive and the music was way too loud. read more

The food was amazing but the dining environment was disappointing. I was taking my wife of 30+ years to see Maverick, (Top Gun was our first date) and we thought we'd try something new. We found Pharaohs online and decided to give it a try. I'm not sure if the place wants to be a restaurant or a club but the hybrid approach wasn't working on a quiet Sunday evening. The disco lights, the lasers, and the gangster rap were horrible. In addition to the thumping, my wife was facing the screen showing the explicit lyrics. It is hard to enjoy the fantastic food when reading the lyrics and hearing songs of 'raping whores'. I would venture back for the food, but wouldn't want to bring my family or friends. read more

Posting this review has its 'good and bad'! But as a dedicated Yelp Eliter, I must do my responsibility in posting this review! So, first with the bad.....I know that my review may encourage more people to check out this spot...which will mean less space for me..LOL! It's a hidden gem that people may not know about! And once you experience it, you may want to be a repeat patron! But, I must still post this review:-) We were a group of 4 looking for a hookah spot in or near JCK so as to not travel far from the home. We literally stumbled across this place thru a Yelp Search. The reviews were good and the drink photos looked amazing. So why not! I noticed mention of reservations so I called to ask about availability and mentioned we were new to the area. They had some availability an hour or so after, but the person we spoke to (Ahmad) said there was space and the bar and to come that way...he'd take care of us! And boy did he! We jumped in an Uber (to be safe) and headed that way. When we arrived, I referenced the phone call and Ahmad directed us to 4 seats at the bar. Atmosphere - quaint spot with tables and a bar. Perfect if you are looking for good food, hookah, the best international music hits provided by a DJ, and good drinks! This spot would be good for a couple and for larger groups. Perfect chill spot! I love music from other cultures, so if that's your thing, this spots for you! They played everything from West African hits to bachata! They also had an amazing belly dancer. Food - Sorry for the lack of photos. But take my word for it, the food we order was good and it was fresh! We ordered the Egyptian Salad, tabouli, and the lamb chops. Let me tell you...they give a lot of food. So, ask about sizes and consider sharing or be prepared to take it home. Everything we ordered was very good with awesome presentation too! Drinks - the drinks were good! We stuck with things we new. The Bartender was very attentive with our drinks! Hookah - The selection of flavors is great! Lots of choices. Customer service - This place was on point! The waitstaff constantly checked on us regardless of who our specific waitress was. And Ahmad was on it! Collectively, between the waitstaff, bartender, and Ahmad, it was clear that making sure the customer had an enjoyable experience was a priority. Will we back? Absolutely! Will I take more photos next time? Absolutely! Tip - if you can plan ahead, consider making a reservation:) read more

So made a reservation for 7pm this evening. We get there and they inform us that someone bought out the whole restaurant for the evening but they had patio seating available. The guy that greeted us was cool, you could tell he was upset about having the handle reservation guests and then someone having the whole place bought out. It would have been nice if our appetizers or drinks were on the house due to the inconvenience but whatever... So the food OMG it was amazing! We ordered the calamari for appetizer (sorry no pic it was so damn good). Like crazy good! The garlic sauce over it and then the dipping sauce *chefs kiss. We came for the lamb chops and that's what we had. They were amazing like perfect size, cooked perfectly, the rice pyramids and the sauce that came with them. Lastly all the girlys on TikTok been talking about lemon drops so I decided to try one. FAIL! Idk if it was the bartender but that was nasty! Overall great night. Great vibe! read more

Took my fiancé here weekend before last. We all had a BLAST! Great atmosphere, professional service, fresh and delicious food and drinks. The belly dancer was GREAT! She pulled myself and one of our female friends on the dance floor to dance with her. It was so much FUN! I wouldn't have normally done that but the VIBE was everything! I made reservations on Yelp. When I arrived, our section was ready and our waitress came right to our table. She was very tentative, friendly, accommodating and professional. They brought out sparklers and sung happy birthday to my fiancé with 50 Cent's birthday playing. It was GREAT! We will definitely be back! I didn't get the chance to try the hookah service, I was too tired. I have to go back for that too! Keep up the GREAT WORK! read more

We truly had fun here. We had a reservation at 10:15 and it was 11:00 before we were seated, but what appeared to be the owner, and all other staff made sure we were comfortable. The music was super loud and could barely hear the staff, but it was so much fun and we didn't mind. The food was phenomenal. We had the appetizer sample with Hummus, Baba Ganoush, and Moussaka. Then we had the mixed grill with lamb chops that we shared and added the macaroni as well and it was all divine. If you're looking for a good time, great food, and a fun filled night, you're looking at the right place. read more

Ok so the food was really VERY tasty. But.. portions were much smaller than expected considering the price. I really want to give them 5 stars but with a $200 bill, I shouldn't have had to feed my husband afterwards. Truly, the food was super good and service was a-ok. Note that we were charged the tip $40 on top of a $200 bill. Jasmine was sweet so we gave her a bit more but.. really.. I wasn't impressed with the portion sizes. read more

I cannot recommend this experience enough. It's the best authentic Mediterranean food I've had since moving to Atlanta 3 years ago. And I love and have tried many places. When I tell you that everything is made fresh, from scratch; the creamiest hummus. The Stuffed Falafel was crispy on the outside and perfectly seasoned and tender inside, the homemade olive oil it's served with is wonderful perfection. The Baba Ganoush was creamy, well seasoned and absolutely delectable. The Cairo Cauliflower is one of the best prepared dishes I've ever had. I'm gluten and dairy free due to health reasons and I had so many delicious options. The Home Made Hibiscus juice is sweetened to perfection and not overpowering. Can't wait to try more things. ** apologies for the lack of pictures, we devoured everything before we thought of taking pictures. read more

Such an amazing find this place turned out to be . I was trying to find a new place to hang out with friends over hookah and food . I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of hookah and food . This appetizer 'hawawshy' and calamari for appetizer . I would say hawawshy is a must try here . Place was clean and loved how we were given a new pipe and mouthpieces . Safety and cleanliness is so important for us especially now. I would recommend this place for a get together where dancing and fun music is appreciated:) Saturday night is a great night to be here for some added fun of belly dancing. read more

Terrible ... service was beyond bad had to call the server over several times and one person in our party didn't receive their dinner until everyone else had finished their meals.

I do not recommend! read more
