King Tut Restaurant

This Hospital District eatery describes its cuisine as "Egyptian," but you'll recognize many of these dishes from restaurants that simply go with the tag "Mediterranean." One distinction of this modestly appointed storefront restaurant: Just about everything is superb value. Particularly good is the chicken shawarma, diced chicken breast simmered in onions, tomatoes, lemon juice and fresh herbs, served with rice pilaf or french fries and pita bread.
