Pharaohs Palace Restaurant Bar

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.

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!

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

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.

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
