This place has amazing oriantal food, pizzas, suchi, drinks and shisha. Moreover, the ambiance is great it's overlooking the River Nile, service is good and prices are rasonable. You have to call and reserve before going , do it couple of days before you intend to visit as most of the time it's fully booked.

Great atmosphere. Good selection of food, a choice of sushi menu from Mori Sushi or Sequoia's menu which has a sort of traditional lebanese cuisine. Selection of cocktails and fine wines available too. Great place to go on a date or just chill with some old time friends. Book in advance. The guys at the entrance can park your car... More

A modern and stylish restaurant on a deck over the Nile - the service can be a bit haphazard but the food is generally very good.

Best location in town (at the Northern tip of Zamalek Island). In the middle of the Nile. Great food and ambience.

Lebanese / Egyptian food options in a Nileside location. Most of the customers were locals which is always a good sign. Service was good by Egyptian standards, if you waved enough then someone would come over promptly, if not then you were left alone. The food was very good but rather expensive, in many ways you are paying a premium... More
