My heading is irrational as I certainly wish Laura well. The food was very good, the service excellent. Good prices, serves alcohol, charming owner. There is nothing against it. And yet, when I am in Egypt, I don't really want to see baked beans and apple crumble on the menu, even in addition to Egyptian dishes. It could almost as... more

Now just walk a bit further down a slightly down at heel street, perfectly safe, no worries and you will be rewarded by delicious food, a lovely welcome and incredible value. The mixed starter plate is delicious as is the mixed sheesh kebab plate and we found one of each of these was plenty for 2 people. Spotlessly clean (... more

After having read all the reviews, I decided to choose ths restaurant to organize a meal for 8 of us. Unfortunately, most of us were disappointed with the food, lack of spices, bland food, and should we be asked our opinion...Choose another restaurant. more

Had some fab meals at Jewel of the Nile, enjoyed over a lovely bottle of wine which is great value - 75 Egyptian pounds per bottle compared to approx. 120-140 we paid at other restaurants. Great atmosphere and I agree with the other reviewer who said to try the aubergine fritters with tahini - brill. We also thought the kebab... more

Please don't believe Bren9's review. We came back from Luxor last night and ate twice at Jewel of the Nile as the food was so good, and excellent value. Both times we had the set egyptian menu - fantastic deal at 75LE (about £7.50) for 4 courses. And it was a great intro to Egyptian food. The second starter course... more

Thanks to Laura and Massoud for guiding us through the menu ,so that my husband could eat good egYptian food and I could eat vegetarian. Very helpful and food really good at great prices.Also wine at a reasonable price for restaurants. THANKS LAURA AND MASSOUD. more

this resaurant was a big disapointment to me and my partner,the lady that runs it seemed full of herself, but the food was the worse we have ever had in all our years eating out in luxor. The veg soup we orderd was just like gravy granules with a few frozen veg in and our steak was so flat and... more

Thanks very much to Laura for a warm welcome and the high standards of the food and service. I have spent alot of time in Egypt and the mixed grill was the best I have ever tasted. Everything was perfect. Definately THE place to head for. A hearty meal for two and drinks for under £20, great value. Can't wait... more

We read about this before going to Luxor and though it took a bit of finding it was well worth it. I can only echo what everyone has said. The food is delicious (try the fired aubergines and tahini) and the fish tagen was the best my husband tasted anywhere (and he has tasted a few). The staff are friendly... more
