4.8 / 5.0(2,179 reviews)

Got the game bird lover meal set, which was way more food than expected. The two of us could not finish all that food, I reckon it would be more like 3-4 people. They had live music, the atmosphere was nice and quaint and the staff were friendly. Service was a little slow though even though it was fairly empty This restaurant offers variety of dishes with portions so big you’ll never leave hungry. The staff are incredibly friendly and greet you with a warm smile, creating a friendly atmosphere from the moment you walk in. It’s a great place to enjoy a delicious meal and feel truly welcomed. 🧡 Delicious boneless chicken, which came on a tiny grill. They brought warm, freshly baked Egyptian bread to the table, along with some delightful dips. Very friendly staff! Egyptian music plays in the background. Choice of indoor or outdoor tables. Recommended!

The place looked very good from outside, and the food was generally good. It was however, empty, for dinner, on a Saturday night. The service was okay, with a touch of rude. The restaurant is in the courtyard of the hotel, and whilst we were there, there was a birthday party blasting very loud music which completely ruined any chance of a relaxed dinner. We finished our food and dashed out of the place.
