I like the guy running this restaurant and the feel of the place is great: you often get a sea breeze coming through this place when the rest of Dahab is sweltering. However, the food is a bit average. I found a hair in my pizza last time (won't be going back again now). Also, my biggest gripe is: no... More

Had a great meal at Meya Meya. My wife says her lamb was the best ever eaten. My fish was very very good. Nice atmosphere and service. Good value for money.

Lamb and kofta dishes were delicious. You sit on cushions on the floor; Bedouin style. Atmosphere for that reason and the dimmed lights is great. To prevent musquitoes for ruining your dinner they bring you insect repellent right after you sit down. Needless to say that the rest of the service is fine as well.

Meya Meya has been our favourite haunt for four years now. We love it come summer with the cool breeze or winter by the roaring fire. Complimentary mezze including onion rings are delicious but don't expect to lose any weight here as there are also free beignets to end! Great prices and friendly staff - come to Dahab and see...

Meya Meya!! Love this place! Good restaurant to relax and eat or just for a drink and shish. The staff is ultra friendly a fast. Good price and good food, try the little fried beignet as dessert: amazing! Good atmosphere, music and bedouin style seat. Good during the winter as well with the fire in the middle of the restaurant.... More

Firstly the guy who stands outside to get new customers "Mr Fantastic" was a delight and so much fun we went back every night. The decor is hippy chic with low seating, coloured lamps, sheesha pipes and open fires( in December/Jan when we were there). The guys who work there are very nice and the music is really cool. Its...

All restaurants near the bridge in Dahab are pretty much the same, but this one stands out for me because of the atmosphere, which is closer to what I was expecting to find in Egypt.

A very nice evening. Friendly welcome and roaring fires which add to the Bedouin atmosphere of the restaurant. Pleasant food, perhaps not the best of our trip but certainly cheaper than some, and up there as one of our favourites.

The food at Meyya Meyya was amazing, well prepared and fresh. And since it can get a little chilly in february even in Egypt the inside campfires are nice!
