A sleeper among the many Middle Eastern restaurants in the area, Pyramids is best known to the university crowd and other nearby neighbors. The menu offers all the standards, somewhat in the cooking style of its predecessor Mona's. The prices are a shade lower than typical, which in the high-value Lebanese category is saying something.
Hilmi Abdejali opened Pyramids in 2008, taking over the spot next to Bud's Broiler formerly occupied by a branch of the local chain Mona's. He performed some cosmetic renovations to the restaurant, resulting in a more comfortable restaurant than you might expect from the exterior.
Cosmetic renovations to the restaurant when it changed hands lifted the spirits of the middling-spacious dining room, more comfortable than you might expect from the exterior. The service staff could give more attention than they do.
Bring your own wine or beer. There's no corkage charge. The menu features many vegetarian dishes.
