The quality of food was excellent. The atmosphere was also inviting and relaxing. The place was well situated overlooking the Nile. The service is quick and punctual. I only disliked the shisha.

Perfect setting, great view of the Nile, very good food, really reasonably priced and the service is very good, variety is good and the "BREAD" oven made in front of you is exceptional! I'd certainly recommend it for any one visiting Cairo, don't forget to reserve a table to get a place on the outside terrace in (not on) the... More

It has a romantic location....idea for a cosy , quiet experience by the Nile ....candlelight and warm service. The Moroccan spread is delectable...would love to go back to Cairo for this for sure. Must do for the foodie in you and the romantics !

Went here for dinner in April at 8:30. Had a table outside with a beautiful view of the Nile at night. Perfect temperature to eat outside with a slight breeze. We ordered a bottle of wine (decent selection) and had mezzah and shared an egyptian barbecue plate of beef and lamb. The lamb was so good. I loved everything we... More

Went the for a birthday lunch and was not dissapointed. Had originally went to the grand Hyatt but arrived to no atmosphere and no alcohol so quickly jumped into a cab to Kababgy and thank god we did. Service was great and the food delicious and you can beat the location away from the crowds and traffic!

The resturant location is its biggest draw. It's located in the sofitel which sits on an island in the middle of the Nile with 360 degree views. The grilled meats come on a bed of charcol to keep them warm. The food is tasty and the bread (baked freshly in the traditional style by a women on site) It is... More

This is a great place, part of the Sofitel El Gezirah hotel, but with a separate entrance. The location is superb: an island in the middle of the Nile, 200m from the famous Tahrir Square. There is a nice terrace overlooking the water, and a closed area for cooler nights. The specialty is grilled meats, brought to your table on... More
