Apart from the standard menu, five-star hotels frequently bring in European chefs for week-long ethnic feasts. Prices in Egyptian restaurants have grown dramatically in recent years, and a decent meal can now cost almost as much as in London or New York, yet the more basic establishments remain affordable. Alcohol is often not served in less cost restaurants, while more upscale establishments may exclusively sell pricey imported wines. Here are top 5 best restaurants in Egypt

The international award-winning Le Pacha is at the top of the list because it's technically not one, not two, but multiple fantastic restaurants all in one Nile-docked boat. Le Pacha has seven restaurants and one bar/lounge/nightclub-like location. Carlo's, where the menu is a combination of all different cuisines (including local Egyptian favorites) and you may order shisha; L'Asiatique, their pan-Asian restaurant that was rated 3rd best in Africa; and Piccolo Mondo, an Italian restaurant with a view of the Nile, are their absolute favorites.
Toplist will be the first to inform you that their food is consistently excellent. And, while this may appear to be a given, it is not in Egypt. Most restaurants fail to produce consistency (it's awful when you can tell when a different chef is in charge), yet Le Pacha's restaurants succeed every time. Le Steak (French), Maharani (Indian), River Boat (Lebanese), Le Tarbouche (Egyptian), and Le J.Z. are the other eateries (lounge).

Akher Sa'a has a devoted local following for serving some of the greatest fuul and ta'amiyya sandwiches in town, spiced up with outstanding sauces and 'extras' like soyuk (spicy sausage). The meal is delicious and freshly prepared, and the prices are really low. The sign (and menu) are solely in Arabic; expect long lines at the takeaway portion, which is adjacent to a modest seating space.
Before you can enter this small eatery, you must first pass through the owner's outside kitchen. Once inside, you can observe her cutting and stirring various foods. All grilled meats come with soup, rice, salad, and potato stew, ensuring that you will be satisfied on your way out. If you want to go around the eateries that the locals frequent, this is a highly recommended address. The menu you will be given will almost certainly be devoid of prices. Before placing an order, please inquire.

Whether you're a resident or a guest looking for a unique dining experience, Kebdet el Prince (or 'El Brens' as we call it) is a must-visit at least once. This restaurant isn't posh or in a hip neighborhood, but it's always packed, which is a testimonial to how delicious their food is. Almost all of the time. Because of their hardcore, homestyle Egyptian menu, full of traditional favorites that you'd have a hard time finding anywhere else but an Egyptian grandmother's kitchen, Kebdet el Prince (which translates to 'the prince of liver') is the darling of both regular Egyptian locals and Egyptian celebrities alike.
The restaurant is open until the early morning hours, and seating is on a first-come, first-served basis (the restaurant is basically rows and rows of sidewalk tables). You arrive, place your order, eat till you're blue in the face, and then clear the table for the next eager patron. Their menu is not for the faint of heart, but it will be an experience you will never forget.
