Very Affordable by US standards. Fresh fish. Great food. Excellent & friendly service. English is not spoken by all staff, but there was 1 supervisor who made sure we were satisfied. It was a large restuarant full of empty tables. Not very Romantic, but a quiet place with great great food. We sat next to the window and could see... More

I had read about this restaurant on the Internet so I was eager to eat there. Yes they serve fish and it was very fresh and very good. There was plenty to eat and the atmosphere was very enjoyable. It was all part of the Rames tour of Alexandria. More

Outstanding preparation and presentation on seafood, but what set the meal apart is the mezza style oriental appetizers which were all excellent. Serving staff was attentive, but rather somber. Cook and manager at "pick your fish" counter were full of suggestions and joked with us as we kept changing our minds. Most of the interchange was via an Egyptian friend,... More

We liked the food..But found the staff to be very terrible, rude and aggressive..They hardly smile ..Not one of them ,and lots of nagging with other Agents or tour guides for some reasons ,Shame is the SMILE doesn't cost anything , and they have great location and good food. More

A bit expensive for Egypt but not by Western prices.... More
