Why Travelers Love Pier88 Nile

Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.

4.4 / 5.0(2,412 reviews)

Cant understand ANY critic here! Sure, not cheap, but quality and hard work in kitchen and service pay-off Loved Pulpo and Filet de Manzo, Pronto. Also dessert. Like a wonder Box! Highly Recommend / Everything was absolutely amazing. From the appetizers to the main courses and even the desserts, every single dish was full of flavor and prepared with great care. The place itself is stunning, with a beautiful view and a wonderful atmosphere. The staff were extremely helpful and kind throughout our visit. Honestly, I can say this restaurant left a special mark on me. As someone who is Turkish and comes from a country known for some of the best cuisine in the world, I was truly impressed. This place deserves all the praise! An unforgettable dining experience. Every bite was bursting with flavour, every dish an artistic piece, I got the crusted tuna fillet and the truffle tagliatele and the shrimp salad, everything was more than fantastic. Pricey but worth it in my opinion. And great views and atmosphere and the service was good.

We were told that we would be having lunch by the Nile, but we had no idea of how amazing it would be. The entrance is reached by a series of gangways, ramps and steps. A little bit awkward for those with mobility issues, but certainly not insurmountable. Once inside, we were astonished at the decor, which was very upmarket, one of the best we had seen in Egypt. Apart from the sumptuous decorations, it was pure white cotton tablecloths & napkins, with silver service cutlery. The food was impressive, lots of choice, very well presented, a good mixture of cuisine, and lots of it. They were slightly slow at topping up some items, but I think that was because they had a few more customers than they expected, and were having to cook up some additional food. We had an all inclusive package for the food, so could eat as much as we liked; but drinks including water were extra. However, a large glass of wine and a bottle of beer was less than £4 each, so I didn't consider it too expensive. The view was really good, looking at various boats moving about the river. The service was good, and they were very attentive. Really could not fault it in any way. Not at all what we expected, a really nice addition to the trip to Cairo.
