" I have been coming back to this restaurant for years, and while it’s always packed, the quality of the food makes up for it. The falafel and tangy tahini sauce pair perfectly. They keep a consistent quality through the years. Friendly service and flavors taken straight from my homeland. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" The Nile Restaurant has some seriously delicious shawarma! You can really taste the authenticity in every bite. Only downside is they can be quite busy at times, which leads to slower service – but definitely worth the wait for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great place for eating out with family! The Nile served us delicious shawarma that was freshly made and super juicy. Portions were of good size, and prices are reasonable! The staff was pleasant but could use more training, as our orders got mixed up. However, it's worth a second visit just for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited The Nile Restaurant with a group of friends last week. The shawarma is fantastic and incredibly filling. We also had the mixed platter which offered a variety of flavors. However, the restaurant could do with a more modern update in terms of ambiance. Despite that, the food quality makes it a must-try spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" While The Nile Restaurant had great food, the cleanliness of the place was concerning! I’m all for authenticity, but it should not come at the cost of hygiene. The falafel was delicious, and their spices are on point, but a good scrub should really be on their to-do list. I’d think twice about returning unless cleaned up. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! We just had the best dining experience at The Nile Restaurant. The falafel was crispy and flavorful, truly authentic, just like I had in the Middle East. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere felt welcoming though a bit simple. They definitely have a loyal customer in me! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can say without a doubt, dining at The Nile was a great experience. Their falafel is the best I've tasted! The visit was nice since the staff was friendly; the only problem is the place doesn’t have restrooms. Regardless, I highly recommend giving them a visit. " (*Curated Review*)
