Typical Egyptian restaurant with a rooftop having a good sea view and and light music, it creates a good vibes😊 in our hectic schedules we reached al seef area around midnight 12.30 am, we were hunting for a rooftop returant with a tasty food, without any disappointment we ended with choosing this place, they serve delicious Egyptian food ❤️ lovely place
Nice place with very tasty meals. Shawarma is really great and Arabian salad with rucola too.
Never had Egyptian food before and this restaurant lived up to my expectations. We ordered lamb shank with rice and it was out of the world. The meat was so tender, soft and juicy. Location and service was also brilliant
Are you hungry? New discovery! I visited @khofodubai and here’s my feedback____ 🔹 Food & drinks. They have a huge variety of all kinds of food. Especially I was attracted with grill section. Very fresh, tender juicy beef, chicken, lamb, doves & seafood. The taste was great. Presentation was very appealing also. Especially the charcoal on the plate which was giving amazing smell, sound of sizzling & nice smoke. All served with grilled veggies, French fries & sauces. Loved it. Non alcoholic place. Surprisingly, they didn’t have Moroccan tea 🤔____🔹 Service & Ambience. Ambience deserves separate words. They have a very nice terrace (for winter time) next to the creek with spectacular view. Unique design giving experience of ancient Egypt. Columns with hieroglyphs, staff wearing uniform-costumes. Furniture is little shabby & ragged. Terrace is quite dirty for sitting. Talking about service, staff is very friendly and attentive, but sometimes there’s no one to assist.____🔹 Music & Entertainment. Arabic music 🤷♀️____🔹 Location & Parking. Location is ... eh ... use navigator 😅 otherwise you’ll never find it 🤣 underground parking is available.____🔹 Rating. 4 out of 5.___If you want some nice food, I would recommend this place.
Incredible ambiented restautant, good food and great service. The venue is really really nice making you feel in the Middle East, specially in Egypt. The location and view are awesome, it is whitin the Al Seef which since I found it is a must visit. This riverview walk is all about making you feel you walking somewhere in the antique times in the Middle East. Lots of cafes shops and restaurant.
Amazing location, and services and foodTried their iftar was super yummy and worth each felis I have spent. The food quality really good mix authentic EGYPTIAN Fresh food WITH international menu. Drinks included in buffet and Arabic coffee. Good place for family and friends... hurry and try their food before Ramadan ends.
We were walking in Al Seef looking for a place to lunch at when these attractive servers dressed as Egyptians caught our eye!Located in the heritage district of Al Seef Dubai on the shores of the Dubai Creek, KHOFO is Dubai’s first Pharaonic restaurant. We expected that The culinary journey at KHOFO would take us back to the taste of ancient Egypt but that did not happenSprawled across two floors, KHOFO is a spacious venue that also offers outdoor dining area with spectacular views of the Dubai Creek.Ambience: v nice with the servers dressed in Egyptian costumes and a lot of hieroglyphs adorning the wallsWe were a group of five with vegetarians and non vegetariansAsked them for a discount and they did not tell us about Zomato Gold though we had a member with us.So at the end of the day one feels a little cheated and Zomato should have a sign saying we are on Zomato gold displayed prominently!FoodOrdered three startersSpicy Potatoes : below average 1/5Hummus : excellent 5/5Baba Ghanoug : v tasty and 4/5 both of these are recommendedMains :For vegetarian ordered a Traditional Koushary 3/5 which is a mix of macaroni , Egyptian rice lentil topped with Tomato sauce and Fried OnionsAs the photos show they did not top up with the sauce but served it alongsideResult was that the dish looked v blandOn adding the sauces it became palatable but will I order it again? No I don’t think soNon-vegetarians were served Tawook which is basically marinated chicken sheesh kebab ( not soft and juicy enough)This was served on a bed of coriander and potato fingers! A huge green chilly ( was tasty ) and half a tomato ( huh) completed the dish ! Did not like it much either and a simple item like potato fingers were not delicious 2/5Total came to about 200 dirhams which would have been about 150 had we known about and used our Zomato gold
Best Egyptian restaurant in DubaiFood, drinks and view 😋
This place totally flopped my expectations, seating and location is gorgeous but even that was ruined by the horrible service provided by the staff.We where miss informed about entertainer offers we specifically asked to be clarified at the beginning of our order.We waited approximately 25 minutes only to be noticed by the staff.The salad took another half hour to show on the table.Besides the service the food has also been below paar: A horribly dry duck served in a horrendously small serving size, a tabouleh salad that was extremely salty, a seafood dish riddled with shell in the sauce it actually cut my gum and a lemon mint so extremely over sweetened I could not identify any other flavors besides sugar
Its very nice place.food are affordable and place kept clean.peoples whare humble enough.lobe this
Such a vibe, the lift and outdoor shisha are the highlight
Newly opened Khofo at Al Seef did not disappoint. Was amazed at the gorgeous interiors.. Soon as u enter u are taken away by the ancient Egyptian decor. Delicious food, did not seem over the top, or heavy, very light and flavourful. Tried their spaghetti bolognese and sausage. Definitely going back for more 👍😊
Amazing delicious food , great quality , staff are really friendly and helpful , highly recommended
Nice place with great view,Excellent service
Disappointing! Its so hard to be disappointed in a place that you once fell in love with. Genuinely this was my favourite place in Al Seef. Been here twice in 2019 and the food WAS delicious. Not sure what happened this year; could be a different chef or different restaurant manager but we all (7 family members) didnt enjoy our food today.We had Ramadan buffet (maybe quantity was prioritised over quality).My thoughts:1) Tastless food.2) ramadan buffet - not managed properly. Guests poring their own food and touching the serving cutlery which contradicts with the hygiene of covid19 regulations. Ideally the waiters should be standing by food stations and pouring/ serving. Didnt feel safe.3) Bad selection of dishes on the buffet menu (alot of dishes were stew base and alot of ingredients in one dish = visually not appealing at all). Obviously it was prepared with quantity over quality in mind.4) tea and water not included in the buffet menu, although if its AED 99 per person it would only make sense to have it included. Not worth the money.(Tea @19 & 500ml water at AED9).5) some of us had stomach ache and bloating after the food.6) there was dry bird poop on one of the chairs outdoors where we sat. Ideally the staff should clean and sanitize the space before patrons arrive. Obviously this was dry poop from many hours ago. Negligence!!We didnt argue. Paid the bill and gave tips but unfortunately never back again here. The view and ambience is amazing though. Its a shame its not lived up to high standards 😕
Excellent food with authentic Egyptian sytle. Presentation 10/10!
Nice place to dine for Egyptian Cusine. The sea view is amazing
So many of the waterside cafés and restaurants are closed here, but we stumbled upon this lovely spot. The staff were attentive, happy and polite. The small selection of food we had was delicious and good value for money.
Good place but high price for the quantity
I and my family had perfect time together in that restaurant , The food was perfect and the services. Highly recommend this Restaurant to everyone.
Excellent, but expensive
The alexandrian liver was really nice, Moza wasnt the best I tasted but their mixed rice was good. Also I think the soups are abit overpriced (starting from 30 aed).You can find a good Groupon deal for this restaurant 50%.Decoration was really nice and the staff were friendly, would recommend this place for the view and amazing Egyptian decoration however the food was tasty but not the best.
Very nice restaurant 😍👌👍 huge portions and delicious food, good personal 👍👌
Very nice Egyptian restaurant & great food in a magnificent location with beautiful scenery
Best outdoor restaurant in winter
Loved the food. Specially the kunafa with mango
Food not good , prices are cery high , view is nice
Good food,very nice view.Tables arenot clean and service a bit slow.old furniture
I didnt like the way thay asked for minimum charge 100 AED
Food was very delicious, clean environment, friendly staff,
I was surprised from such an amazing super tasty food, from very friendly stuff, and very delicious desserts. Wish to the restaurant good luck, keep same level, and of course l will come back there more and more times bringing my friends with me to get nice atmosphere and dinning.
Nice location but very over priced . Quality of food is fine but less quantity so doesnt worth it the price .
The food delicious, ambience delightful, and staff amazing. We highly recommend this restaurant as a must to visit place when you are in in Dubai...visiting or living there. 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Amazing
Food was great, though a bit pricey! Expected better service.. one star less for the service
Loved the outdoor seating however the food portion is very less compared to the prices and the taste was average .. the waiter mistook our order three times and was trying to convince us that it is what we ordered until the manager finally changed it.
A very nice experience. Went there right around iftar time and didnt want to have the buffet but the staff , especially Martina, was very accommodating and helpful. Staff are very courteous, friendly and attentive. Martina helped us find a table to our liking and was very friendly. Will definitely recommend and come back.
The service was extremely late, the table had no salt or paper and when we asked for them we had to wait 15 minutes!!!The manager first tried to compensate by giving us a complementary dessert, but during our payment he was so rude and wouldn’t let us use entertainer vouchers and even ended up charging us for the dessert that was originally complementary!!!Some of the worst service I’ve ever experienced, 100% would not recommend!
Perfect place for a leisurely lunch or dinner date. For a romantic, this place offers great food, awesome views and service too.Not sure of summer times, but the outdoor seating is an added pleasure.
Great place to get food poisoning. My buddy and I ordered the same thing and it ruined the rest of our trip. The other restaurants nearby were fine.
Visited for a friends party dinner. Food was amazing and nice in taste. Nicely presented.5 stars for quality of food and location.
This is the second time I visited Khofo. Its an Egyptian themed restaurant and location, interiors and food is too good. Food is expensive due to its location being in Al Seef by Meeras. And the service is very slow. The no. of support staff is too less and I had waited for 5-10 mins only to find a person to order something despite us being the only customer in the restaurant. This is something they should improve.
Tasty Egyptian cusine. Beautiful locationOutdoor seating is great in winters
Great food and ambience. Too bad it was raining when we went there two days ago, so we were not able to enjoy the night scene outside.Staff was ok but there was one certain lady that I think deliberately tried to ignore me when I was waving at her to get her attention coz we needed to ask something.Our orders were served warm but because we sat by the doors our food got cold in no time, as the cold air was coming in through.
Amazing experience i ordered the mixed seafood it was so tasty
Very nice view and service is really professional 👍
Food was very good... price is quite expensive.... the service is slow
Loved the food overall. Ambience is also great !!
Great food. Nice staff. Hookah is on point.Worth the stop for lunch or dinner.
Beautiful food and friendly service .... feel a bit sorry for staff in their uniforms/costumes but I’m sure they appeal to the tourists!
Poor food quality. I got poisoned from the food. not recommend it at all
Breakfast/Brunch:Location: picture perfect esp outdoorsPricing: fairFood: perfect egyption experienceStaff: smiling & cooperativeWeather: perfect going again tonight.
Food quality is very good and tasty, price is a bit expensive but somehow justified with the food quality and nice view and cleanliness,Service is normal nothing extraordinary.
Excellent waterfront view. Excellent grill chicken and salmon.
Authentic Egyptian Cuisine, very pleasant atmosphere and good creek view.
The best service and location ever
The food was great, the staff is friendly and the location is very good, the only down point that the air conditioning wasnt working or they turned it off what made us had to leave at the end.
Cool place with delicious food
This restaurant has good Koshari, a bit expensive, but the outdoor view is stunning.
Good restaurant over the creek Al khour
Amazing food .. good ambience.. must try..
Nice place but shisha is not good
Nice food😋...friendly staff😘.....keep it up guys💪.....recommended 😊
Nice and tasty food but the price is quite high for the food portions
Nice view , delicious food
Very bad service and complete disrespect from the manager. Despite my wife being there earlier with 2 of her friends and availing 3 entertainer vouchers, the managers was insistent that we can only use 1, we were not satisfied and asked to avail 2, the manager dealt with the situation very rudely and when I said I will give them an unpleasant review he shouted “do as you please, I don’t care”. Very unprofessional.Their services was generally slow and poor, very substandard.
Beautiful venue but the service is terrible. Had to beg for cutlery 5 minutes after our food had arrived. All food did not arrive at the same time. Incorrect food was delivered to the table. Food was ok but the service left a bitter taste in my mouth.
Good place to dine with family and friends
Delicious food,great location very good stuff.... Thanks
Amazing food, clean resturant, Pharaonic style and awesome staff... They are really friendly.
Fantastic more than anyone expectations
