This was my first visit to this restaurant as I was celebrating our 12 anniversary, after reading many recommendations on this site, I decided to go for a romantic dinner there. Atmosphere of the restaurant is very good, the view from the 41 floor is superb. The menu was not big, but had a lot of variety. As I was... More

The place is lovely and the view is amazing. The 2 hour rotation really makes a difference to your perspective of Cairo. The food is not that good for the price.

You should try this restaurant once because it is very very expensive (about 100-150$ per person), but it have such a great view of the Nile and all Cairo with a tasty food and small portion. More
