We've tried to eat here a couple of times prior but line out the door deterred us.Late Saturday lunch (1:39P) w/husband. Only 2 other tables occupied. No one to greet us; one of the tables (apparently regulars) asked if it was our first time & told us to go ahead and seat ourselves.Server arrived and took our drink order. Very nice, don't remember her giving her name, but according to the receipt, she was "Training T." No alcohol served, but not an issue. Pita bread was brought, but without accompaniments. Wish it had been held for the meal since both dishes we ordered came with hummus and rice, but no additional bread.Ordered spinach pie as app. Delivered very quickly. Nice flavor but not as flaky as other places and a bit overcooked. Ordered Chicken Zarour and Gourmet Beef Shwarma. THESE meats were amazing! The Chicken Zarour served with one pc white meat, one pc dark, which totally worked for us. (FYI - no sharp knife to cut meat off bone.) BBQ sauce on it was obviously house made and was amazing! If it was bottled, we would have bought it. (NOTE to owner: consider this & message me through Yelp when you do.) I have hesitated to order Shwarma because of past very dry meat experiences elsewhere, but this was so delish - I ran out of stomach first. Oh, did I say portions are ample? Pricing is under $20/plate, so reasonable.Rice has very nice flavor. There is a bread spread included with each meal (or maybe good on rice? I don't know) that reminded us of a spread we had in Utah at a Bosnian restaurant. It's an amazing piquant spread to take home to put on toasted bread.Pricing for quality and quantity was very good. Check and close out was a bit slow; we had to waive down a bus person to get to go boxes. (At this point, the one waitress had 7 tables, although she did have a food runner.) We'd still go back, because the selections were numerous, but perhaps during normal lunch hours.So, 3 stars for no one to greet, pita with nothing until our meal showed up - then we had spreads with our meal and no bread - overcooked spinach pie, and chicken delivered without a knife. FYI - if you get the Zarour - eat it all! It doesn't reheat well. :)

My husband and I went to cleopatra last night for the first time. When we walked in, we noticed it was a bit warm (must have AC issues like everyone in south LA with this unbearable heat right now). We were able to choose where we sat. The service was a bit slow, which we noticed almost instantly. It took them quite some time to bring us menus. When they finally took our order, we had received bread and soup before our drinks. Because of the food and the heat, we were really thirsty so this was a bit unpleasant. There was an error with our check, where we were charged for two drinks but had only received one, but it was handled. My husband had the chicken tikka which he liked. I had the kebab sultani which was delicious. The steak was a bit overcooked, but the other meats were delicious. I also appreciate that they ask the customer if they want soup or salad (which came with our meal). Asking customers instead of just providing it really reduces food waste. Plus, we had options! My husband got the lentil soup and I got the vegetable soup. The vegetable soup was delicious!Overall, the food was a 4/5 and the service a 2/5. I don't want to give a review solely on the service, as the food was delicious. We would definitely come back, but probably order take out.

This place has incredible authentic middle eastern cuisine. So delicious and the service was incredible. I can't wait to come by and try more dishes. The inside is clean and open with Arabic music playing in the background.

Been coming here for years. No doubt my favorite all-around middle eastern restaurant in Nola. Everything on the menu is at a minimum good, their lentil soup may be best in town, chicken & shrimp kebabs are great, the rice is distinctive, plates come with a flavor-packed whipped garlic sauce (it's unnamed but I'd call it toum) that makes everything it touches better, and service is consistently good. It's not gourmet or atmospheric and they don't serve alcohol, so not a date night type place, but definitely a great lunch, weeknight or family dinner spot.
