Giza · Pyramids road, Giza

Christo

Fish by weight with the pyramids behind, since the 1970s.

€€€ High end

An institution on the pyramids road: you pick from the ice, the kitchen does the rest, and the upper terrace frames the plateau. A Cairo family table more than a tourist address.

The extra bit

Ask for the upper terrace: that is where the pyramids are visible, not from the room.

Know before you go

Fish is paid by weight: have it weighed and the price confirmed before cooking.
