I've lived in Egypt for 7 years now and this place is my favourite restaurant in the country. The atmosphere, food and service are all spot-on and I'd recommend it for everything from a quick lunch through to a posh dinner for a special occasion. My favourite is the degustation menu where you are truly taken on a culinary journey... More

Eaten here several times recently taking advantage of their four course for 99LE offer. Food and presentation is superb. At these prices you cannot fault it!!

It was lovely to escape the chaos of Cairo to the cool hotel and the view from the terrace was great - not peaceful as over the main Corniche road but exciting. The service, drinks and shisha were well below standard though. In fact the service throughout the whole hotel was rude, unhelpful and as a cold as the air... More

Everything is sublime - the food, the service and the place. This is a top quality international restaurant.

I have been there with my wife and friends as well as with business guests who... More

Birdcage was the most amazing food I've had in years. When I first saw it on tripadvisor, I didnt think much of it despite the amazing ratings but we were hooked. We went there a dozen times before we left Cairo. Its the best place at the Intercontinental hotel!

We visited The Birdcage on our second night in Cairo from our hotel out at Giza. We'd read good reviews and were not disappointed

I visited a friend in Cairo, Egypt during September of 2012. While he introduced me to delicious Egyptian cuisine, I was able to introduce him to Thai cuisine while dining at the Birdcage during my stay at the Semiramis InterContinental Hotel. The food was superbly prepared, the atmosphere very pleasant and the service polite and efficient. My Egyptian friend was... More
