cleopatra's restaurant

excellent!!!!!. the service was amazing and very personable!!! the food was outstanding..we ordered the lamb and need shwarma. (s.p.) and their roselle tea is to die for (literally!) a must try restaurant!!!! support smal business and try somewhere new!! you won't regret it!! chris was an excellent server.

5 stars. ate there on the 12 and the 16th of march while taking website photos for the owner. service (kris) great! food good! had never had egyptian food & wanted to try. have eaten in 24 states and 10 countries so have some knowledge of food...

delicious food and service. the lamb/beef schwarma was delicious and the server was very nice and informative. if you're looking for something different or great food with excellent service, i highly recommend cleopatra's restaurant. the appetizers and desserts were awesome as well. give it a try!

the chef here is a master at fresh delicious food and the friendly helpful staff will help you get familiar with the egyptian menu items. you will not be disappointed!

incredible!. i've lived in greensboro most of my life; been to the eastern mediterranean; worked for people from there... just go! :)

completely blown away. i never had egyptian food before, so i was apprehensive. i was confused by most of the items on the menu. just like going to an italian restaurant for the first time. the server suggested a sampler plate and it was plenty of food for my date. really we had enough left over for another person or lunch the next day. best portions in town. everything was hot and delicious. somebody really puts the time into making everything perfect. the chicken was my favorite. it was seasoned with something i had never tasted before. truly amazing. the sausage was amazing as well, it was an explosion of flavor. the lamb sample was small, but i understand it was to sample it. but to get like 5 items with the best rice i've ever had for around thirty dollars was so worth it. this makes a great date spot and a everyday eat. will be a devote cleo fan after this.

cleopatra's is my favorite restaurant, which says a lot. i consider myself a closeted food snob (guess that secret's out) and this is the place that i crave at lunch, dinner, late at night, anytime/everytime. i laughed a little when an uber-hippie friend recommended "this awesome egyptian restaurant", and since have repented by taking him there. the veggie kebabs, lamb, hummus, vermicelli rice, schwarma - everything - is amazeballs. even my 8 year old loved it. don't forget the baklava. so go already! eat!!! and you're welcome for finding you your new fave dining experience.

great food. great experience!. we ate at cleopatra's restaurant recently for the first time, and will definitely be returning. we live about an hour away, but will happily make the trip for more great meals. we each tried the falafel with various sides, and were amazed at how delicious and fresh everything was. the portions provide you with plenty to enjoy and then some to take home. everyone at the restaurant was very friendly, and the service was excellent. cleopatra's is a must for anyone who also enjoys mediterranean food, or if you are looking to try something new! highly recommended. can't wait to return!

the food here is awesome the staff is very attentive to your every need. the owner yassir treats you like family

i eat falafel where they make it. cleopatra's falafel was light air and perfectly cooked. the service is wonderful and the owner delightfully pleasant. next time we shall bring our own bottle of wine since they allow that and don't charge bottle fees.

delicious!!. we went for the sunday brunch and everything was above our expectations! i've had baklava many times, at many places..but cleopatra's baklava beats them all!! we even had to take some home! i can't wait to go back!

veggie dishes!!. ok now i have a new favorite, we are vegatarians and obviously eating out becomes challenging, cleopatras had some of the best veg selection we have seen, i got the musakka which is a veggie dish made from eggplants peppers and onions, i would reccomend it to anyone, they had a nice seafood section too im goin for lunch again tomorrow!!

today at cleos. well i had a great authentic egyptian dish for lunch, it took about ten minutes to get and was the most tasty lamb kabob ive had in greesnboro
i recommend it to anyone, my girlfriend also enjoyed her vegetarian dish

authentic egyptian!!. excellent experience! the authentic egyptian chef makes the best sausage in greensboro and the ikhnatun salad using what must be organic parsley is amazing. the 'fewl' is better than any hummus. i will return just to get the rice with pinenuts, sliced almonds, walnuts and raisins as well as the pureed lintel soup. the baklava has a thick delicious shortbread base and delicate pastry. definitely the best baklava ever! all of the meats in the mixed grill are tender without any fat. i never knew egyptian cuisine is so healthy!

cleopatra's has without a doubt best food and service i have ever received. the waiter was extremely knowledgeable about what he was serving and was very pleasent. the food was perfect from appetizer to dessert. 100% in my book.

bland and dry. went on a daily deal type of coupon. glad i did. other than the little soup thing with chickpeas in it, everything was very dry and lacking any flavor. well, the small salad was good. service was okay and there weren't many people there during lunch. they do not have a bar, so no drinks, but you may be able to byob wine. not sure. bottom line, i would not go back and would not recommend it to anyone.
