I am not an Egyptian , so I don’t know the original flavor or how the authentic traditional Cairo food cooked, but this place is recommended to visit, if you want to try the Egyptian food, even though the prices were extremely high, but you can manage to share dishes with your guests , the Hama is small, the Akawi is tasty, and Moamar rice is outstanding ( rice cooked in milk inside oven), they said the Friday buffet having many items, we will try to visit someday, and have freedom with quantity, since a la cart option having small portion.

I havent been to Cairo for over 11 years , from the minute I stepped in this restaurant I felt I went back to my beloved country , the restaurant is amazing, the staff is very skilled and highly motivated to serve you with an unforgettable smile , the food is very tasty, the ambiance is charming .Special thanks to Dr.Tamer who made a peace of art in Dubai and give to all Cairo lovers the city they love at their doorstep.

One of the good places for authentic Egyptian cuisine.Tried them during the lockdown and they still offering a great service during that tough time .However during the last visit, the place was over crowded and noisy and we were bit disappointed.Food is highly priced for the quality you actually get 😋 👌And the location is amazing .you can also enjoy walking at Dubai Water Canal is a lovely spot for a run/walk/bike ride and even taking photos.

Went here for the firstime and im lovin it.Very relaxing and good for shisha.I tried the national dish which is Koushaer as i dont remember what is it exactly the name.I also got avocado juice i loved it but too sweet then they change to Mango Juice is so yummy.The vibes are great but just the music i dont understand why they played Christmas song and keep repeating all the time.But above all the staff are amazing and they even taking care of us nicely.

One of the best Egyptian restaurants in Dubai do far. Beautiful decorated place, spacious with smoking and non-smoking areas. Very good variety of items on the menu; mainly Egyptian dishes. Quality of food is excellent. Food was really tasty and delicious. Almost all the items were excellent. We were a large group many of whom were Egyptians and they all liked it. Food was not heavy nor greasy.On desserts we tried the Mango Kunafa which was delicious and the famous Um Ali which was the best I had in a while.If there is a room for improvement I would say the service. It was friendly but a bit inefficient.I just hope they maintain the quality.

The food is really nice and clean but after I ordered once and tried to do it again they claimed there was a 150 Dirhams minimum charge because they knew I am ordering from a 5 stars hotel and afterwards took it back .. very unprofessional trying to exploit customers like that ..next time use a reasonable minimum charge if you are willing to do it

In my opinion, it is the best place to taste most famous Egyptian traditional dishes.Not the best view or decoration.Best if you want to enjoy taste, rather than invite non-Egyptian guest who is not seeking Egyptian dishes.

Follow up Review (April 2019) - 2 Stars:Cairo Gourmet still maintains the level of good food and great service. But I was disappointed to see swarms of tiny flies roaming on the tables. In addition, they served store-bought Lebanese bread instead of the expected freshly baked Egyptian bread which is a huge blow. Will give them another chance in few months.Original Review (February 2019) - 4 Stars:Among the best Egyptian restaurants in Dubai.Strategically located on Sheikh Zayed Road with plenty of parking areas around. Nicely decorated and properly segregated into smoking and nonsmoking areas. Service is great, menu offers lots of options among the most popular Egyptian delecacies, food is good, but prices are high.Will definitely return.

Clean, warm personal, quite crowded but service fast and precisely in time. Dishes well presented, ingredients correct, tasty. Mutabbal perfect, hummus as well five stars, meet well sometimes over cooked but thats oriental way, if you warn the waiter they will correct it hat. Green salads, tomato etc well washed, clean, fresh, tasty. Dont miss this place. A place to come again and again with friends and family. Shhhh, if they could serve few drops of wine or Arak........That will be perfect.

We went for the breakfast buffet for 30 AED and it was very nice and tasty. All the basics for a traditional Egyptian breakfast and some with a nice twist. There was also an egg station to cook eggs how you like. Great service as well and the place was almost empty on a Tuesday morning so we felt comfortable having the place all to ourselves. Highly recommended

We had so much fun eating at this restaurant and the food was divine. We were only in Dubai for 36 hours and couldnt decide what to eat at Cairo Gourmet so we decided to take their special for AED 220 (feeds 4, but probably enough for 6 smaller people). The special gives you a variety of grills (beef, chicken, lamb), a vegetarian grill platter, soups, breads, tea, humus, rice, liver and a few other items. Definitely suggest paying them a visit if you are in Dubai. They are close to Business Bay and not too far from the Dubai Mall via taxi.

Food is very good, place is amazing.Waiters should be more friendly.The worst thing in the place is children, lots of them, running around and screaming, if the restaurant would make an isolated place for kids to play that would be very good.

Review №43

I went there on Friday morning and found out that they serve open buffet breakfast so I asked them if I can order from the menu and they confirmed that i can and they help me to get seated. When I ordered sandwiches, they told me that you can only order plates with no clear explanation on why I cannot order what I like to order especially that I can order same type of food but It has to be plate. They force me to leave and go to another Egyptian restaurant near them called Hadouta Masrya where I ordered whatever I want from the menu without any attitude.

An elegant decorated Egyptian restaurant. It has large nice seating areas, one for smoking and other for non smoking. The food is nice and delicious. Service is excellent and not slow. There is lot of paking space outside the restaurant underneath the bridge. It has no outdoor seating area. They also serves traditional Egyptian breakfast.

I had such high expectations for this place, especially from the name “gourmet”. Nothing about it is actually gourmet. It’s a normal Egyptian food restaurant. I was excited to see one of my very favorite very Egyptian dishes on the menu, rice kofta, but to my disappointment, they were not actually serving it. I chose molokhya and fatta as they are my favorite too. The molokhya was good but fatta not too much. It didn’t have the Egyptian flavors in it and the meat wasn’t that good. The staff were very friendly and they kindly changed the dish with grilled chicken which was very good. It was a safe bet because I was actually eating my friends food when I didn’t like the fatta. I came for lunch so the place and vibes were quiet. I am not sure I’d call this the best Egyptian place in Dubai, since you know you are the best from serving the best authentic food and that unfortunately wasn’t my experience.

I was with my family yesterday 14.12.2020By checking reviews I was expecting good service and delicious food but unfortunately its other way around. The worst service ever. It seems like nobody cares about guests. We ordered food together with tea but we never got a tea. After 30 min I went to bar to get my tea, no one was there so I took tea by my self. I asked container for take away from supervisor he told me than he will bring it. Waited 10 min went back to bar saw him standing and when I asked wheres my container, he ignored me because he was busy with his phone. Definitely not recommended to go there. I guess half of the reviews are fake.

One start is much more than they deserve, yesterday I ate meet, and 6 hours later I ended up in the emergency room in the Saudi German hospital.Long story short, I was poisoned and in bad shape because of the food I ate.If that happened in any restaurant, Dubai Municipality would close the restaurant right-after such an accident.They are very strict with their actions when it comes to food quality.Take care, ladies and gentlemen.

First time here and am very impressed with the decor, the display of the menus, family dining separate from the Disco like dining area. They have live music some days (check). Came here through recommendation of a friend and the food was delicious.Afternoons you can choose a take away menu or eat in.Also a menu for every occasion. Some outdoor seating for the cool nights.It is very spacious and clean, beautiful wooden tables and comfortable chairs.The Egyptian menu is all about grill food, rice, salad, smoothies (freshly made) but also have a vegetarian menu, nice touch. Well priced considering the location. Easy parking in front of the building. Recommended.
