The place is very historical with like pictures hung up on the walls. Also, not to mention there are cute little birds in the facility. Also to prevent the heat from entering, you know, to eat, they have installed fans and intelligence stuff. The service is very quick and clean. The staff is very nice and friendly. And the food is very good quality and has good portion amounts. Outside has a little bit of shading and there are trees and there are trees out in the outside area. Aisha was the one who attended us and she was delightful, very friendly and patient us (sorry Aisha) :)

I visited this restaurant twice, and both experiences were excellent. The first visit was for breakfast, and everything was absolutely wonderful. I would like to sincerely thank Nandar for her great service and professionalism. The second visit was for lunch, and Aisha helped us with the menu choices. She was extremely kind, attentive, and always smiling. The food she recommended was delicious, and I truly appreciate her lovely attitude and high level of service. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be visiting again.

Excellent place to eat! Great food and even better service! Everything we ordered was delicious and had generous portions. Was more than enough to feed 3 very hungry Canadians :)

Loved this place. They have branches throughout the city. We visited the one on Jumeirah public beach but it had a queue so we came to this one. There was no wait. We had the Egyptian breakfast platter. All the dips were excellent. For us the bread was not amazing though. Prefer the bread options we've had at other restaurants. They also had a tea that we enjoyed. And the price was reasonable. Would come back
