Very few other eateries in Cairo that I'd describe as a pleasant place. This is both a pleasant place, and the food is good.

The Sequoia is the place to eat when in Zamalek. The service is great, the food superb and the location on the bank of the Nile is a dream come true.

Right around the corner, you find the most friendly service, excellent menu, long list of drinks and wines, attentive service, and reasonable prices. You will live the tent-style decor, sitting on the banks of the Nile and enjoying Arabian nights.

Went during Ramadan last summer and it has a breathtaking view of the Nile river. The buffet was incredible and the ambience was stunning even into the night with the lighting they had.

I love everything about that place. I'm used to bad service at Sequoia but their service has become totally different. I love the service, I love the food, I love the atmosphere. It's a must try!

There are very good descriptions in previous posts. No need to repeat them here. It is a wonderful place.there were hardly any tourists there, which is a consequence of the current situation. An unfortunate bonus! Many thanks to Sayed who was delightful!
