Best seafood in Egypt The butterfly shrimp is mind-blowing 🤯 Tried 2 types of shrimp Pasta and seafood pasta both amazing and they are using top quality ingredients in all the dishes For the appetizers lovers they have an amazing fried eggplant fingers starter dish that you must order !!! And of course the salads are more than perfection 🙌🏼🙌🏼 The service is decent and professional yet friendly... Best price compared to the top notch quality 💯💯👏🏼

Amazing seafood experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was clean and comfortable. I especially enjoyed the grilled shrimp and the butterfly shrimp — absolutely delicious, the shrimp pasta was amazing. Prices are reasonable for the quality. Highly recommended for seafood lovers!

Order the butterfly buttered prawns!!! The mussels and baby clams were a nice lead us snack as well. Crabs were a little over cooked but everything else made up for it. Enjoy!!! Also, no alcohol to wash down the buttery goodness unfortunately.

The experience here was very cool and unique. We selected what we wanted raw and on ice and the man weighed it and noted how we wanted it prepared. We ordered 6 shrimp, calamari, crab, fish, and spicy soup. The soup was delicious and unlike anything I had previously in Egypt. The seasoning was delicious on the shrimp and fish. Crab was a little light on meat and the plate was cleared before we could eat most of it. Calamari and shrimp were slightly over cooked but flavor was still great and a nice change up from the usual Egyptian food (beans, rice, hummus, meat). Would definitely recommend to people visiting Cairo.

Very nice food. Although the butterfly tasted different than the signature taste but the overall experience was okay
