The 19 Best Restaurants in Cairo, Egypt | Eater

"When residents of densely packed Zamalek aren’t busy sipping coffee in one of the island’s compact cafes, shopping in its boutiques, or perusing its art galleries, they head for Crimson’s relaxed terrace for a breezy breakfast or a sophisticated night out. A fantastic view of the Nile is the perfect backdrop for stylish Mediterranean and Italian dishes. Start with the salmon roll (beetroot-cured salmon with cream cheese and shrimp, topped with salty black caviar), followed by the succulent grilled chateaubriand for two, and the signature pineapple creme brulee (baked within a pineapple). Crimson is also known for its impressive selection of cocktails, most notably a bright gin and tonic infused with coriander and rosemary. Reservations are highly recommended." - Laila Hassaballa

The location, the vibes, and the crisp winter weather come together to create an atmosphere that’s genuinely special. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel relaxed the moment you arrive. The food was equally impressive. The goat cheese salad was perfectly balanced — fresh greens, creamy cheese, and just the right touch of sweetness and acidity. The grilled chicken was another highlight: tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Overall, it’s one of those spots where the ambiance and the food complement each other perfectly, making it a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!

Definitely an upscale eating experience in Cairo, not touristy but upscale. Food was delicious but nothing really local. I’ve come to expect not the best service here in Cairo but these folks were pretty good and accommodating. The rooftop atmosphere is as delightful with a great view of the Nile. Good place for a leisurely lunch!

Fabulous place overlooking the Nile. Small but nice balcony with seating to soak in the weather and views. Loved some of the starters. Went couple of times in different group sizes.

A wonderful place by the Nile to sit and relax after a long day, but difficult to get a reservation so try to to that early on. The scene is so inviting and calming. The food and dessert are great as well. Definitely a place to visit if you’re in Cairo

Wow this restaurant served the best food and wine. The staff were so friendly and funny. They made sure we had everything we needed. The view is great directly in front of the Nile. It was a lovely fine dine experience without the extra formalities. They gave us recommendations that did not disappoint. The steaks were my favourite. The elevator broke down tho and we had no other option of going down and the manager refused to give me a free glass of wine which was sad. Would definitely recommend the restaurant and definitely planning on coming again in my next trip to Egypt.

An exceptional dining experience from start to finish. The cuisine is absolutely top notch fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re here for a relaxing breakfast or a romantic dinner, the ambiance is unmatched, especially on the terrace overlooking the Nile. The view is stunning at any time of day, and the atmosphere is both elegant and welcoming. Service was attentive, professional, and warm without being intrusive. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy great food in one of the most iconic settings Zamalek has to offer. A true gem by the river.
