Reviews on Lebanese food in Cairo, Cairo Governorate, Egypt. Cairo’s an ancient city that also happens to be a modern metropolis—it’s one of the biggest cities in the Middle East and has the traffic and noise issues to prove it. But as long as you’re not looking for solitude, Cairo—the City of the Thousand Minarets—is a splendid place to explore Egyptian history and culture. (Editor's note: Our list was compiled before political unrest prompted many countries to issue travel warnings for Egypt. If you're currently planning a trip to Egypt, please consider the risks and monitor your government's travel alerts.)

Variety of offerings is great. I particularly love the Lebanese chicken fatta. Their salads are great especially the fatoush (green slalad with bread and great dressing) and el Raheb (eggplant salad). Service is great. They have shisha/water pipe (I personally don't like though).

We had Lamb Shank meals. They were very succulent & tasty. Very tender meat. Portions were good too. The service was excellent. 5 stars for the food & service. Now as for the Entertainment, if you like Arabic Music then it was great. The Entertainment started at 11 pm until may be 4 am. We stayed for the Belly dancing which did not start until 3 am and it totally sucked. What a joke. Yes the dancer was pretty but her attire & dancing sucked. I Apologize for saying so. They need to hire a younger dancer with a great body shape with Bally dancing attire & skills. We would definitely come back for the food but not Belly dancing. Dear Valued Guest,Greetings from Fairmont Nile City.We are delighted that you have enjoyed your stay with us. We thank you for sharing your pleasant experience which will serve as a further source of inspiration for us to achieve higher standards of hospitality excellence.Your generous comments have been conveyed to the hotel team and has greatly motivated us all.We greatly value your feedback and look forward to welcoming you again at Fairmont Nile City.Thank you,Fairmont Nile City Team

This was the last restaurant we ate in while visiting Egypt and the food was fantastic! The ambiance was good with service to match. Five couples ate dinner and every order was great. Recommend it, particularly if you are staying there.

6. Taboula Lebanese Restaurant

Excusite Lebanese Food in Oriental Setting. Truly a Feast for the Eyes and the Taste buds!
Reviewed By George S
It all started superbly. The bread was fresh, soft and warm and the hummus superb, the kofte light and bursting, the vine leaves delicate and sharp, but the grilled meat was a disappointment â chewy and a little overdone. The atmosphere's good though and, if you can decipher an largely impenetrable wine list, the booze is fine.
