My absolute fav! Food and service always excellent! I've been going there forever! I give 10 stars! read more

Haven't been in awhile so I took the opportunity to have my birthday dinner here. Went with my wife and daughter. Let me start out by saying that the place itself is not much to look at and the furniture could use an update. It's decorated nicely inside. The service was ok the night we went and it's usually better. They had a huge birthday party (about 15 people) that took a lot of their time. However, the reason to come here is the awesome food. They bring you out three dips and pita for dipping. Each one if fantastic. For my meal I started with the salad topped with Mohammed's spiced vinaigrette. The dressing is so good. For my main I got the Egyptian Flounder with veggies and couscous. It came with a side of tahini to put on top if you like to. The Flounder was moist and delicious. The veggies and couscous were also very good. The portion size is incredible. The attached picture shows my meal, WHEN I WAS FULL AND MY MEAL WAS FINISHED. It came with two big flounder fillets. My wife got the crab bisque as a starter and scallops with lobster sauce for her main. I was able to try both since we had so many leftovers. The crab bisque is probably the best I've ever eaten. My daughter got the salad as well and the lamb stew which she really enjoyed. read more

such a gem of an unassuming restaurant, mohammed and cindy are the best! so happy to have been able to catch their last day open before their travels to egypt. the food here is absolutely incredible, and the portion sizes are massive as well, we had leftovers for days! i ordered vince scott's favorite with garlic mashed potatoes and got the chicken soup as my starter. vince scott's was incredible -- the egyptian flounder was so flavorful, and the dash of lemon added the perfect tartness. the lamb shishkabobs were juicy and the vegetables were surprisingly delicious as well. my boyfriend's family are regulars here. every single dish was done so well and the portion sizes are very generous. the restaurant is very homey and cozy. the outside is unassuming, but the food here is truly amazing. cindy and mohammed were both so friendly and easy to talk to. definitely would recommend checking them out in the spring after they return to the states! read more

Golden Pyramid Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Mays Landing, New Jersey

This was one of my favorite dining experiences because I had no expectations and the meal was made from scratch (which I understand is their approach) and the freshness of the food is unparalleled. The service is like a private chef taking care of one person. The ambiance is welcoming, and intimate. read more

Food was amazing, service was a little slow but professional, waitresses and staff were very friendly. Portions were so big it could be labeled as family style. I had seafood paella and it was flavorful, the dish was full with clams, mussels, scallops, salmon, chicken and chorizo 10/10. Stuffed mushroom apps were huge filled with crab. We would define back and recommend to anyone , just come hungry and patient. read more

Don't judge a book by its cover. The building is not what you'd expect, but don't let that keep you away. It's clean, friendly, and the food is SUPERB! We have been here several times now, and it NEVER disappoints! Recently, we visited with a party of 9. Everyone raved about their meals and shared their food with each other. Every dish is made fresh and to your liking. The portions are large and shareable. Muhammad is a fabulous Chef! His wife is super friendly, as are the other servers. Our dining experience was very relaxed, welcoming and delish! I Highly recommend The Golden Pyramid. read more

Service was great, food is delicious & portions are HUGE! You can literally feed a family of 4 with the chicken parm.

Golden Pyramid Restaurant - Egyptian Chicken - Italian Near Me - Mays Landing, New Jersey

I've been singing the praises of this restaurant since they opened on Main St. Their food and service are amazing, and in all this time (20+ years), I probably tried everything on the menu, which is substantial. While everything is great, here are some of my favorites; crab bisque soup, salad with egyptian dressing (it's spicy) stuffed mushrooms, falafel, egyptian chicken and fish, veal parm, anything curry (chicken, scallops or shrimp), steak pizzaola and gumbo. That just scratches the surface. Everything has a taste of Egypt, even the Italian offerings. Save 1/2 or 2/3 of your meal for another day(S) and you may just have room for dessert. Konafa and baklava. read more

I've ordered from here twice in the past few week and both experiences were above and beyond amazing. If I could, I'd give a 6 star. It easily became of my new favorite places and I'm excited for the next time I go. Every single bite has me and my lady geeking out at how delicious it is. The serving sizes for the entrees are generous, and always leave me with enough leftovers for lunch the next day. The Curry Chicken is worthy of my highest praise. The crab stuffed mushrooms may have been my favorite crab dish I ever tried. I'm not a big fan of crab, but those stuffed mushies are something out of a dream. I love getting the "Couscous with nuts and hot milk" dessert with my dinner and saving it for the next morning's breakfast. I will recommend this place to everyone. read more

The very best food Egyptian as well amazing Italian dishes . I've been following and eating at this restaurant since 1987. A co worker treated me back then and I became another local fan. Try the chicken curry , a delicate flavor of coconut raisins and curry. Not like any curry you have ever tried. Love the grape leaves and coconut chicken for appetizers. read more

The food alone with its great taste and large portions is enough to go to this restaurant, but you cannot find better service. Cindy , the owner (with her husband) and the staff is second to none. I highly recommend making this part of your "to do list" this summer. read more

My whole family celebrated our moms 60th bday party there! they set up an AMAZING private room. I don't think the service could have been ANY better than it was! everyone was so kind, thoughtful, and they were on top of EVERYTHING! We all got to try a little bit of everything, and let me tell you. each appetizer, meal I tried, and the atmosphere was unmatched! The portions are SOOO big and take nothing away from the quality! It was an unbelievable experience, and can't wait to get back! read more

The food was delicious and more than enough for one person. The service was friendly, and professional. It was Mother's Day and the place was very busy. My only recommendation would be to add extra staff on holidays and when ordering, ask the chef to go easy on the salt. It was my third time going there, and I will definitely go back again. read more

OMG, If you were hungry you will need to go to this restaurant. If you love Mediterranean food or Italian food do you need to go to this restaurant. This is the most awesome restaurant that I have found near Mayslanding in a very long time. Service is exceptional and welcoming food is large sums but delicious. My husband doesn't care for Mediterranean food and he'll go there and eat it that's how good it is. I highly recommend going in there and sharing a plate because you will be taking some home and eating on it for several days. Thumbs up read more

Food is fantastic, owners are the best and the service is always on point! The ambiance perfect for a cozy date night for sure.

Hidden gem! Walked in and the owners were soooo friendly and hospitable. To start, you get 3 complimentary fresh Egyptian dips and pita bread (hummus tahini, baba ghanoush, and ful medames) - all three were wildly delicious! All meals are accompanied with a soup or salad. I had a white cream crab soup! Yum! Portions are insanely large. Chicken is sooo tender. Don't pass this place by! So good! read more

Absolutely fantastic. I have eaten there several times, ordering a different dish each time (and tasting everyone else's) and every dish was wonderful. The portions are huge and the staff is very friendly. The decor needs some work and I wish they had more Egyptian dishes (the menu is mostly "Mediterranean") but other than that, this is a great place to eat - a real diamond in the rough. You won't be disappointed. read more

Great food and service. Very tasty Egyptian Chicken dish. The rice pudding was also great! read more

Golden Pyramid Restaurant - Egyptian Chicken - Italian Near Me - Mays Landing, New Jersey

The only regret I have when talking about Golden Pyramid is not discovering its Egyptian, Italian, and Mediterranean blend of heaven sooner. The cuisine breathes the experience of a chef who's honed his expertise over decades and pours his heart into every meal. Chef Mohammed cooks with a masterful attention to the finest detail; every dinner here is made to order. Tonight I started with his Greek lemon chicken soup. There's no question the powerful lemon zest asserts itself as the star of this soupy show. It's bolstered by a cast of appetizing ingredients that play a passive yet impactful role. It's lightness leaves room in your stomach for delights to come without broaching a feeling of levity. Every bite offers a new perspective in taste, its flavors taunt you to find them. I followed with the chicken curry as my entrée, selecting garlic mashed potaotes and saffron rice as sides. The garlic mashed potatoes are wonderful. They inspire a sense of nostalgic familiarity without being offensive in their originality. The handmade smoothness complements an intentional amount of texture so as not to become machined mush. As with all of Chef Muhammeds cusine, I find it difficult to stop myself from hastily devouring what's before me. Not doing so would prevent me from appreciating the lifetime of complexity he's created. read more

I have done takeout here for about two years now and have always been satisfied. My wife and I the other day decided to try eating in the restaurant. The food was amazing I had the catfish with saffron rice and vegetables which was out of this world. My wife had a seafood entrée that had such great taste she said we have to come here every time we want to go out to eat.. The service was personable and outstanding. We had the desert Baklava, homemade and outstanding may be the best I ever had. The Chef came and met with us, the experience from the food to the service the fantastic. No more " chain restaurants for me. This place has everything I need. read more

Walked in- after being ignored by several staff members we asked if we could get a seat.

Not sure what to make of it. read more
