I heard about Elhelmya Egyptian Restaurant through social media and got excited to try it, so I…read moreordered through DoorDash. The food was very well made, authentic, and incredibly tasty. Even the presentation through delivery was beautiful and made us excited to open everything and eat. So far, we tried the macarona béchamel -- it was fantastic, moist, not dry at all, and full of flavor. We also tried the koshary, and the sauce added to it was perfectly balanced and gave exactly the authentic taste needed. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. I can't wait to visit in person soon!

Koshary - 8/10 - A bit plain (macaroni and rice) but i liked it with the sauces, would prefer with…read moremore lentils Lamb shank - 8.5/10 - Meat came right off the bone, i liked this paired with the tomato sauce Beef kofta - 8.5/10 - Tender with a smokey flavor Chicken shish - 9.5/10 - Juicy, tender, and smokey Hawashi - 9.5/10 - Loved this beef stuffed bread, had the most flavor out of all the items Bessara - 9/10 - Super smooth bean dip, great with the pita Mombar - 7/10 - Tasty but i wasnt a fan of the rice mixed in with the beef sausage, also was a bit salty Hibiscus juice - 9.5/10 - So refreshing, perfectly sweet and tart This was my first time trying Egyptian food and i think ive discovered a perfect hidden gem for it The meat was smokey and cooked well but i will say that im used to more spice/flavor in my food so it didnt meet that expectation for me but the sauces helped add flavor. If youre in the area, definitely support this small business!

We were greeted pretty quickly when we walked in, when ready, just order at the counter. The We're Dough breakfast spread was okay but nothing too special. The two knockouts that everyone agreed were excellent were the Akkawi cheese fluffy kaak (street bread with cheese and sesame seeds), and the lahme bil ajiin (puff pastry with beef and pine nuts). The cardamom tea was kinda meh, I was hoping it would be something homebrewed, but it was just a grocery store-bought teabag in hot water. Come here for the bakery items, I'm definitely re-ordering the fluffy kaak with cheese and lahme bil ajiin!

What a gem! I used to go to the Sugar Land location about 15-20 years ago and completely forgot…read moreabout this place. I was craving a good gyro and was reminiscing on the specific and perfect flavor of Droubis. So glad this place exists! It's a simple gyro with the necessary toppings (nothing over the top) wrapped perfectly in the most delicious and fresh pita. The price is very reasonable and the quality is top notch. The owner was still making sandwiches just like before! The taste was exactly how I remembered. And the hospitality hasn't changed either!! While waiting for my sandwich to be made, he offered us tea and apologized for the 5 minute delay (because he was making fresh pitas for the sandwiches). I will definitely be back!

Since 1979 he's been slangin shawarma, he's so goated that he's still servin the block and expanding. His students have moved on to other known Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern food establishments like Fadis and such, unfortunately everyone forgot that shawarma is a street food that helps the common man on his grind with an affordable meal but now these greedy guys are selling shawarma for over $15 "sides and drink not included" Mr Droubi is keepin it a hunit and I got mad respect for him. The falafel is also very delicious as well as their hummus and baba ganoush, they have house made pastries, dates, figs, feta, flat bread, imported EVOO etc. all in a chill store/restaurant, I can't wait to come back!

Came with family for the first time and we were so overwhelmed by not just the food options but also by the friendly staff! Pro tip: don't get too excited too early because you will absolutely miss out on the rest of the options. Take a stroll down the line to look at all the possibilities before committing. That said, you can't go wrong with anything at Fadi's - great food, balanced flavor, home-style service :) We'll definitely be back - cheers, Fadi's!

If you make it in at the same time as a bread delivery GO NUTS the bread is fantastic. It's like finding a golden ticket if you get there when the bread is still warm when it's delivered. They do also sell whole rotisserie chicken if you really don't feel like cooking that night.

Love being able to buy things I used to when we used to live abroad. The service is cordial and I always meet a customer who becomes a friend.

Vegetables are way too high in price to buy anything though.

So decided to come back again last Saturday with same friend and her child for a relaxed dinner. They have a great playground for the kids and the patio is huge! The food is super tasty. We had some hummus, and the mixed grill plate. It's served with a massive pita bread that is freshly baked and the size of my head. They have good sauces as well. We didn't finish our food between the two of us and ended up taking leftovers. Portions are great. The mint lemonade is to die for!!
