Ten out of ten! We ordered lentil soup, Molokhia soup, eggplant tagen, grilled meat. My husband and I love every dish we ordered so much. Cantaloupe juice and mango juice are also my fav. I had two glasses of cantaloupe juice hahahaha. We don’t have such delicious juice in China so sad I’m gonna miss it forever. The boss has the warmest smile I’ve ever seen. He gave us dessert on the house and helped us break our bill. He is sooo nice we love him. Don’t miss this restaurant if you have a chance in Luxor, it won’t disappoint you!!!!! The food was amazing and the hospitality is top notch. As an Indian we felt so much at home and so much welcomed. They served us food the Egyptian way. Served me some lemon mint tea for my sore throat which was amazing. Also bid good bye to me with a complimentary chocolate. Loved the experience. Highly recommended!! What a place. I really loved the food it is very tasty and authentic as it can get. The portions are very reasonable too. The host and everyone that works here makes you feel like you've found your long lost friend from years ago, we even chatted on the street til our taxi arrived, it was a great experience. Thank you for looking out for us. I am only giving it a 4 star because the toilet had no hand dryer or hand towels at the time. Other than that I would recommend this over any other tourist restaurant in the area. You won't regret it.

The best meal I had in Egypt! Seriously! Very good falovouring and choices of meals. They had even vegetarian menu. Super nice service and the owner. :)) Totally recommend to visit. I haven’t had such a good meal in any hotel on cruise I had been.

Very good experience overall, close to our hotel and the main attractions in Luxor, food tastes fresh and good. Very much impressed by the lentil soap we ordered. Recommend to tourists. Got very good air conditioners and musics as well
