The food was amazing. I had the lamb shank casserole and it was so delicious. The mixed kebab was amazing too. Delicious Egyptian food. We didn't have a reservation but they managed to get us in. Great service from staff. Thank you

Nice restaurant, we were seated on the rooftop terrace. Food was good, lots of flavour and for a good price. Staff was friendly. We had the Sahlab as a dessert, amazing stuff, tastes like warm vanilla sauce, delicious!

We came there two times during our 3 days Luxor visit. The food tastes like heaven. The atmosphere is so relaxing and authentic. First time we sat on the 2nd floor and we enjoyed the quite and elegant room. At the second time, there was a group of tourists upstairs so we sat in the small 'garden'. We also enjoyed there, a bit hidden from the restaurant but having a little bit of outside noise which was also enjoyable. We are vegetarian and we only ordered dishes without meat there. The use of herb, garlic, and sour taste was so balanced with full of taste! I highly recommend dishes with aubergine & baby aubergine. The mezze are so good (especially the cold mezze with the baby aubergine and rentil salad. Pickled vegetables are also good as refreshment). Do not miss their fresh fruit juice. It's a bit pricy then the street fruit juice shops, but not that much, and it's so delicious. We had melon, guava, lemon, orange and all of them were good. The hibiscus 🌺 tea was also good.

Raghad serves us with a smile and is attentive. He checked whether everything was served and whether we were satisfied with the food. They also have a small garden area for dining.

Good Egyptian food. Different than you see other places. I had the pigeon which was delicious and a few mezze. All tasty. The waiter Gagab was nice and explained the food a bit. Atmosphere is nice.
