I was surprised by the tasty and quality of the food... Everything well prepared and served. The manager/owner was around.. we... talked a lot... nice spot... I highly recommend Obrigado! Read more
Food was mediocre and honestly a bit pricey considering almost everything is vegetarian/vegan. But I’m not here to complain... about the food. While some other reviewers mentioned that they appreciated the server (I’m assuming he is the owner)explaining how to eat every single dish, I personally found this overbearing and excessive. Setting this aside, my complaint isthat this man had the audacity to lecture us regarding our tip after we paid (10%, which is the minimum next to no tip at all),which has never happened to me in any restaurant I’ve been to in my entire life. What this man needs to understand is that thetip is based on the service, and the service at this restaurant was barely there. Yes, he mentioned that he was short staffed atthe beginning of the meal. But that is not the guest’s problem. If you are unable to provide the level of service that youwould expect a 15-18% tip for, then you cannot expect your guests to tip you as such. Our water glasses were not refilled evenonce, which is the bare minimum in service. His behaviour was completely unprofessional and left us feeling very uncomfortableafter we had paid. I want to stress that we did tip, even though tipping is optional and we did it out of plain courtesy to thisman who cannot take an ounce of criticism in any way, shape, or form. He tried to say that restaurants don’t make any moneyapart from the tip, which is completely untrue. It’s especially untrue in cases like this restaurant, where the food isalready overpriced. I also noticed that other bad reviews have either been deleted or have received a snarky response from theowner. I wouldn’t be surprised if he takes down this review as well. Read more
Amazing Egyptian food, great service and affordable dine in. Had a lovely experience at Papyrus and would definitely come... back. We ordered the koshari with salata baladi on the side. This was my favourite dish! It's so flavourful and I would comeback for this. Also did the ful and tameya mix and match. Very yummy. The spices in the dishes are like a warm hug! Lastly fordessert, we had the signature konafa which was great but wished we had time for the cheese version (needs 40 min). The serverswere kind and very knowledgeable about all the dishes and gave us great advice on what to try and in what order (first timeeating Egyptian food for some of us). I also loved the indoor decor: it's tasteful and modern and very pleasant to dine in thatfeels separated from the takeout counter (they have patio, takeout and indoor dining). Read more
My companion and I really enjoyed all the food and drinks. We ordered the Bissara, and Ful and Tameya Mix and Match to share.... Both had fresh, well seasoned ingredients; warm, spongy, freshly made bread which we used to assemble a sandwich in the maindish. I especially enjoyed the Tameya (Egyptian falafel made with fava beans) which had a crispy texture from the coating ofsesame seeds. The hibiscus tea and saffron lemon tea were both sweetened, delicious and refreshing. The latter was new for us;the saffron gives it depth and a little savory taste. Read more

Authentic. Food, price, and service are top class and as Authentic as possible. We ordered Kushari and it was the best we had... in Ontario. We tried Egyptian food in many Arab countries and Papyrus exceded our expectations. Highly recommended. Willdefinitely try their other items on the menu. Staff are professional, Authentic, and very friendly. Also, this is me eatingthe left over kushari at 3am, in the pic. Just absolutely delightful at any time of the day. Read more
