🌟 Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa – A Fascinating Journey Below Alexandria ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As a Local Guide and someone who loves exploring ancient wonders, the Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa were a highlight of our time in Alexandria. This site is truly one of Egypt’s hidden treasures—layered with mystery, beauty, and history. Descend a spiral staircase into a multi-level underground necropolis carved from solid rock. What makes this site so unique is its blend of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences—you’ll see Pharaonic motifs sitting right alongside Greco-Roman columns, statues, and reliefs. 🪦 What Stood Out: • The main burial chamber, with stunning carvings and sarcophagi • The Hall of Caracalla, believed to be a mass burial site for soldiers and horses • Intricate mosaic details and unexpected artistic fusion • The air of mystery—you feel like you’ve stepped back 2,000 years underground 📍 Tips for Visiting: • Wear sturdy shoes—some areas can be damp and slippery. • If you can, bring a guide or read up ahead of time—the signage is minimal, and the stories are worth knowing. The site is well-preserved, less crowded, and offers something different from typical temple visits. If you’re in Alexandria and love ancient history, this is an absolute must-see. — Local Guide, seeker of ancient places & underground wonders

The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa in Alexandria are an absolute wonder and one of the most fascinating historical sites I’ve ever visited. Hidden beneath the bustling city, this ancient necropolis offers a mysterious and captivating journey into Egypt’s Greco-Roman past. As I descended the spiral staircase into the underground chambers, I immediately felt a sense of awe. The combination of Egyptian, Greek, and Roman architectural styles is truly unique — intricate carvings of gods, sphinxes, and mythological figures blend together beautifully. The craftsmanship is incredible, especially considering the site dates back nearly two thousand years. The catacombs are surprisingly extensive, with multiple levels of burial chambers, statues, and wall reliefs. The central tomb, known as the Hall of Caracalla, is especially impressive and beautifully preserved. Although photography is limited in certain areas, just walking through the dimly lit passageways gives you a deep appreciation for the ancient world and how people once honored their dead. The site is well maintained and easy to navigate with guides available at the entrance. I highly recommend taking a guided tour to fully understand the symbolism and history behind the carvings. It’s cool underground, so it’s a great place to visit even on a hot day. The atmosphere is quiet, mysterious, and deeply moving — a true testament to Alexandria’s rich and layered history. If you’re in the city, the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa are an absolute must-see attraction.

The Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa is an incredible underground complex where Egyptian and Greek cultures beautifully intersect. Walking through the catacombs, the experience isn’t just about admiring the statues and carvings—it’s about imagining how people built such a place centuries ago. Above ground, you can also see stones and sarcophagi that were excavated from the site. One disappointing thing, though: seeing cement bags stored in ancient burial chambers really shows how little attention is given to preserving such historically significant places. Fun fact: According to story, the catacombs were discovered when a donkey accidentally fell into a hole leading to the site!

Incredible catacombs in the heart of Alexandria. Kom el Shoqafa is a fascinating labyrinth of underground tombs and chambers that blends Egyptian, Greek, and Roman influences. Walking through its narrow passages and seeing the carved statues, reliefs, and burial niches gives a real sense of the skill and artistry of ancient craftsmen. The atmosphere is eerie but captivating, and it’s amazing to think about the history hidden beneath the city streets. A must-visit for anyone interested in archaeology and the mysteries of ancient civilizations.

The Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa are genuinely fascinating. So much history. This moody underground mash-up of Roman and Egyptian afterlife energy is evident and interesting. They were trying to blend afterlife cultures. The carvings are stunning and the stonework is impressive. Our guide went over the different types of burials and most of the tombs throughout the catacombs. Fun fact: you know how they found these tombs and catacombs? A donkey fell through the ground for the discovery.

If you are in Alexandria, a visit to the catacombs is a must. It has wonderful architecture showing how Greek and Egyption culture and practices intertwined and connected. Please make sure to have a guide with you.

Fascinating catacombs bringing together many different cultures over the years. You can walk all the way to the bottom. Fascinating. Bring a guide.

Nice little museum showing the full length and breadth of Egyptian museum. I wouldn’t call it a must-visit but if you have an hour to spare, it’s certainly nice.

The Alexandria National Museum is definitely one of the must-visit landmarks when you’re in the city. The building itself was once the American consulate, now beautifully transformed into a museum. Each floor showcases artifacts from different historical periods of the region, giving you a clear sense of its rich past. One of the highlights is the collection of underwater relics recovered from the Mediterranean, along with a short video explaining how these pieces were brought to the surface. The museum isn’t very large, so you can easily tour it in about an hour. Tip: Bring your student ID for a 50% discount on the entrance fee.

Good museum that covers the history of Egypt from ancient to relatively modern. A little bit of everything. Clear exhibit labels in English and Arabic. Good air conditioning. Recommended for 1 to 2 hours of visit.

Our visit on November 14th was not flawless because of the unprofessional staff, from the ticket office official to the two women in charge of the gift shops, who showed no interest when we asked about the prices of the books or whether they were available in English. They need to learn how to properly communicate with visitors, especially Egyptians. The Greco-Roman section was our next stop, and while it was fine, the lighting on the objects and the signs, which were meant to give succinct information about the objects, were disorganised.There is little lighting in the Islamic artefacts exhibit, making it difficult to see the relics or their labels

Foreigner ticket 220LE Foreign students ticket 110LE Not big but very educational and fun!! Various relics and detailed instruction👍👍👍 I want to visit here again P.s Watch out for the man who asks for tips - he wants me to give him 50LE😵 P.s. There was a polite cat inside the museum! Super cute🥰

No city has such rich history as Alexandria! You can step into history journey by visiting Alexandria National museum. Absolutely must see...!

Small and cozy musuem with super friendly staff, a classical baroque interior and easy to navigate floor plan. Bottom floor gives off your more typical greek museum vibe with some pharonic and mostly ptelomic pieces. Nothing you may not have seen before there but could be super worth it for hyper enthusiasts. Has some unique artifacts from the more modern era in the upper floors. Love the attention to both islamic and coptic pieces in their side by side quarters. Overall great experience, recommended.

The Qaitbay Citadel in Alexandria, Egypt, is one of the most magnificent landmarks in the city and a true symbol of its glorious past. Standing proudly on the Mediterranean coastline, this historic fortress offers breathtaking views of the sea and the city, making it a perfect blend of history, architecture, and natural beauty. Built in the 15th century on the exact site of the ancient Lighthouse of Alexandria—one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World—the citadel carries immense historical significance. Its strong stone walls, towers, and courtyards transport visitors back to a time when it served as a guardian of Egypt’s northern coast. Every corner tells a story of strength, strategy, and pride. Inside, the citadel is beautifully preserved, allowing visitors to explore its chambers, corridors, and observation points while enjoying the cool sea breeze. The panoramic views from the top are absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. Visiting Qaitbay Citadel is a must for anyone coming to Alexandria—it’s not just a fortress, but a living monument that connects Egypt’s ancient glory with its enduring beauty.

The castle is under maintenance so i suggest you wait until it is fully refurbished. We had fun but it is so exhausting, not recommended for elder people, pregnant women, people with injury in legs. Weather was good in October but not recommended during summer time.

The citadel tour is closed by 6 pm sharp. It is close to fancy restaurants with sea view and boat trips are provided. It is very ancient breathtaking place.The sound-light show has 2 timings check online on their website.It was amazing and catchy but it has to be paid online in advance. It is open air with lots of stray cats.

Great Citadel on the spot of the Alexandria Lighthouse. Well maintained and restored. Always busy, best buy tickets online beforehand or you will wait in line forever at the tiny booth, as every egyptian will try to squeeze in in front of everybody...

Nice fort constructed using the remains of the Alexandria Lighthouse. The Qait Bay Citadel is an impressive structure, perched on the edge of the Mediterranean, offering stunning views of the sea and coastline. Walking through its walls and towers, you can imagine the strategic importance it had in protecting the city. The stonework is remarkable, and the history behind the fort is fascinating, as it was built using materials from the famous lighthouse that once stood here. Visiting this site gives a real sense of the layers of history that Alexandria holds.

The Citadel of Qaitbay in Alexandria is simply breathtaking. Standing on the same spot where the legendary Lighthouse of Alexandria once stood, this 15th-century fortress feels alive with history. Walking through its stone corridors, I truly felt as if I was breathing the past. The highlight for me was standing by the second-floor window, looking out at the endless Mediterranean Sea — the sound of the waves, the salty breeze, and that vast blue horizon gave me real goosebumps. It’s one of those rare moments that stays with you long after you’ve left. The citadel is extremely well-preserved and beautifully located. A must-visit in Alexandria — calm, powerful, and timeless. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Tourists BEWARE!!! The tourist police siting at the entrance will follow you and begin providing a guided tour if you do not stop them. Then, of course like every other monument in Egypt, they will expect a tip. Literally this police officer was as far as to give us his hat to take photos in without even asking to do so. They know how to play the game. Two stars because this type of behavior is incredibly detestable and uncomfortable when you are out visiting any destination. The Citadel itself is magnificent. Actually, one of my favorite aspects was seeing how intelligent the engineers were, having added palm trees into the walls to absorb earthquakes and cannon fire. That was a first and I have been in many castles and forts similar to this one. Seriously though, the amount of corruption in the Egyptian police force is enough to keep you away from Egypt forever. I would not visit again.

My only complaint is they took my backpack, purse and water without giving me a ticket. Small and cute. The jewelry the Farouk's wore were definitely not understated. Cool stained glass window.

Very very cool place to visit. Tons of jewels to view, with amazing designs. Don’t miss it if your in Alexandria

The Royal Jewelry Museum in Alexandria is a beautifully preserved palace showcasing stunning jewelry and artifacts from Egypt’s royal family. With its elegant architecture and sparkling displays, it offers a charming glimpse into the country’s royal past.

It was nice , not up to what I expected of it, the jewellery were nice but what was actually stunning was the walls and windows and architecture

Royal Jewellery museum in a beautiful old building. Some beautiful exhibitions but it's not very big so an hour is probably enough. Gift shop and Coffee place in the gardens. 220egp for ticket, had to leave my rucksack with security and shoe covering were supplied to enter.

Worth a visit. The building is as beautiful as the jewelry. The chess set takes the cake!!

my experience there was very pleasant starting at the door! we didn't have a credit card so we wanted to pay in cash but that wasn't an option then the guard managed to convince a man who had a card to pay for us and we give him the cash. we are foreigners , and we don't find this nice treatment a lot around here. so i really appreciated what he did and i hope he reads my review. he was very friendly , welcoming, and helpful. i wish him all the best. okay now regarding the museum 😂 it's actually a palace going back to the turkish government. it was a great experience to be inside one of those palaces from that era. it's as close as to time travel! the place is a piece of art inside out. the exterior design and the spaces are very eye catching. and the Egyptians did an amazing job maintains the palace in a great condition. the interior of it is so dreamy. walls , ceilings, floors , and windows are all art! even the floor of the bathroom is made in mosaic. the jewelry and the collectibles are amazing. they really had some great sense of style. each piece is unique and eye pleasing. one thing that would have made everything even more better is the organization of the display windows given the space ratios of the rooms. also the display windows needs to have to sort of anti reflection behind the pieces for better visibility. i really enjoyed my time there , spent around one hour and a half. the gift shop also have some nice pieces that you could take as a souvenir.

It’s the only site in Alexandria so far that I think has felt really worth the price of entry. The park will keep you entertained for 45 minutes to an hour. The signage is good and in English and the ticket is just 200 pounds for foreigners. Really nice spot to visit.

Best place to visit typical old Alexandria where the most famous singer “Sayed Darwish” was born and raised

Couldn't go underground there were wild dogs inside, consider a hat if you going in summer

Historical site with Roman theater and some old ruins.

I love the night events that are held regularly for the Egyptian singers. The atmosphere is remarkable and recommend for all who like music. The place is very Centers and the admission ticket is very affordable. You will have the chance to feel the Roman Theatre Style and life from within the place. Good to visit.

This place has a magical atmosphere, the ancient district from the old houses or the monuments are wonderful.. - You will find many Greek and Roman monuments.. - "Said Darwish" the famous old artist's house can be found there.. - I used to go with my college teachers and friends there for painting.

Really well laid out and easy to follow on a self-guided tour. Note: the floor of birds is further than the sign says, and under an enclosed space.

Excellent seafood spot where you pick your catch and they grill it to perfection. Jumbo shrimp were outstanding, sea bass and sea bream also excellent. The eggplant salad was a standout — unique and delicious. Add in the amazing views right by the water, and it’s a memorable experience.

This is a great restaurant. The staff are friendly. The food was fantastic - super fresh fish perfectly cooked aswell as Greek sides and salads. The eggplant was amazing and the beetroot salad. Lovely fresh bread. The views are wonderful, right over the harbour towards the city. And they have a big terrace with outdoor tables. Don’t miss this place. I managed to get a table for a late lunch but most tables were reserved so it’s best to book.

Excellent fish food restaurant, delicious starters, home baked oriental bread, indulge in lemon sorbet for dessert; friendly staff, breathtaking view. Need to reserve a table in advance as always full. Veey efficient management

Love it - every bit. You can pick from the fresh catch of the day, the scene with the fishing boats and all Alexandria bay is another dimension so highly recommend sunset dinners there. The alcohol is fairly priced and the service is top notch. Best place hands down to get a super nice meal in Alex.

My favourite fish meal in all of Egypt with the best views and always friendly staff. Food recommendations: grilled fish (my favorite is Denise aka sea bream), renga salad, cheese croquettes, Greek salad, clams and much more

Pretty slow service, didn't have several items on the menu, fish was good but chicken dish terrible quality. Local teenagers hanging outside the restaurant trying to force beads onto anyone.

5 stars for the location, the music, the view. We had shrimps, salad, seabass (the greek way), beef, and rice. The fish was a bit tasteless for my palate. I would go for another preparation the next time. Everything else was good. The best thing about the place is that there's beer and wine. Service was fantastic in the afternoon, but very mediocre when we went back for dinner.

Although Délices was one of my favorite restaurant in Alexandria, I , unfortunately had one of the most disappointing meals there today ...that was supposed to be a club sandwich!! The toast was extremely dry, with edges so thick and hard that they were literally impossible to eat (see photo). The chicken was overcooked and dry, and the meat was tough and chewy. The whole sandwich lacked freshness, flavor, and balance. I was expecting much better quality from such a well-known place, but this dish was a complete letdown. I definitely won’t be ordering this again..

"I had an exceptional experience at your restaurant! As a first-time visitor, I was blown away by the outstanding food, attentive staff, and reasonable prices. The warm welcome and exceptional service from Hossam truly made us feel at home. His professionalism, knowledge, and friendly nature made our experience unforgettable. We can't wait to come back!" We are coming back next week with our friends Can't wait to meet you again hossam ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I had an amazing experience at Délices ! The service and hospitality were truly exceptional. A special thank you to Mr. Shaaban Ali and Mohamed Salah for their warm attitude, professionalism, and outstanding service — they made the visit even better. The atmosphere was lovely, the team was attentive, and everything felt smooth and welcoming. Definitely one of the best spots in Alexandria. Highly recommended!

Hello you guys, this was my first time to your place and OMG :’) people were so kind and the food yalhhhhawe 3la el gamallll 😭🥹🥹 and Hussam was super super nice and he truly cares about the place, this man is a treasure make sure you keep him ! Sure this is not going to be my last time, whenever I come over to Alex I know where is first place to hit❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ 🥹🥹🥹

The place is very nice, one of the oldest places in Alexandria is a mixture of traditional Greek and Egyptian terraces. I recommend coffee and baked goods

The pride shown in their presentation of the food and shop is beautiful. I had a fajita and my partner had a Surf & Turf. Both delicious. Had to takeaway some sweets for later. Could not resist. The Dubai chocolate is very nice.

Delices is one of the most beautiful places in Alexandria A historical place before it was a confectionery and restaurant, founded in 1922 and considered one of the tourist places in the city of Alexandria A complete place to eat, whether breakfast, lunch or dinner And also for sweets and coffee.. Breakfast is very very nice And all kinds of sweets of the highest quality 👏🏻 The atmosphere in the place is wonderful, elegant and beautiful. My favorite place❤️ I recommend for any one want try only one place in Alexandria

We eat here every time we visit Alex. It's one of my favorite restaurants in the city for its ambiance, location, and excellent quality of pizza. The owner is also really friendly and kind. Such a warm, welcoming place!

This was a good restaurant to pick some Italian inspired food at, did expect more from the reviews you see however I wasn't disappointed much. I think their food though tasty could be better served, and cooked. Loved the lasagne, nice carne pizza which is not Italian at all but rather Eastern, cesar salad without chicken surprisingly, and last plate was chicken scallopinni which I can say I tasted better .

Cozy aesthetic atmosphere . Dimmed lighting and amazing antiques . Most ingredients are home-made like their sausages ,ice-cream a,mozzarella and olive oil blend

The worse service I have ever got. I’m not the one to write reviews, but I will take the time out of my day to make sure I complain about the ridiculousness that happened a few days ago. Went in the restaurant, nice place, staff seemed friendly, everything seemed fine, my friend and I were seated, we did not feel like ordering food, so we ordered 2 desserts and 2 drinks. The waiter then insisted on us buying a main course, and so we did, I ordered a pizza which I did not want, I was going to share with my friend. So the order now is 2 desserts, 2 drinks, and 1 pizza, then the waiter said we need to order another main course. I was honestly filled with rage because the audacity of making me order another main dish after ordering multiple things off the menu and a pizza which we did not want. I will not eat if I don’t want to eat, I will not pay for something I do not want to pay for. Extremely unprofessional and they did not even bother to stop us as we are leaving. I will not be returning since I don’t live in Egypt anyways, huge inconvenience , and a huge disappointment. Honestly whole situation was kind of weird that a restaurant would do this or allow this. I will tell My friends that live here not to go. Need to make changes asap because that’s not how you do business, cannot let the customer walk out, 0/10 experience.

NEVER going back again this place has become unbearable. i’ve been going to chez gaby over the years and it gets worse everytime. - The staff is unwelcoming, rude, and full of arrogance. - The manager insists that EACH seated person MUST order a main course. you can’t even opt for just desert or a drink or an appetizer. - You’re not allowed to change tables to be seated at the table you like unless 1) each person reorders a main course AGAIN even if they had already eaten. 2) previous check is paid while seated on current table - and don’t get me started on the food. it has nothing to do with italian food. the pizza is terrible inedible if i would describe it, it has really deteriorated over the years it wasn’t like that years ago. Even the pasta and the main dishes are under average Me and my friends (group of 4) went for dinner. I arrived a bit late after my 3 friends had already ordered their food and were eating. We asked to change the tables and the waiter said we can’t change with the food already on table and that they’d have to first finish eating and pay and then we can move tables. the waiter also insisted that they pay while seated on our current table. After all that was done and we came to move tables the manager insisted that in order to move tables each person would have to reorder a main dish. as the manager was fighting with us claiming that this is the policy of the place and that this is “not like any restaurant”, my plate arrived and the waiter so stupidly asked me to pay for the plate (mind you it hasn’t been even put on a table for me to eat NOR were we even seated yet, he just wanted me to pay for it) of course i didn’t pay for it and we left the place. it seems like they have lost all sense of logic and respect for their customers و بقوا عايشين الدور قوي

Beyond disappointed from how one my favorite places to eat is downgrading like this. steak was RAW, manager was so rude. I ordered the beef and reef plate to be medium well it first came burnt and i requested it to be redone, second time it came raw with blood coming out of it and the steak felt squishy and then they took it to cook it a bit more and then the third time it also came slightly raw with blood still coming out, i told the manager to return it and that i don't want it anymore she came back to argue with us that we have to order a main dish or they will apply a minimum charge on the cheque while completely ignoring the fact that my order was very disappointing and that the plate was taken to the kitchen THREE times and still they didn’t get it right. The manager kept saying it’s a restaurant and not a cafe which I completely i understand because it is a restaurant and known for it’s food which is why i wanted to take my friend from cairo to visit the place and try the food from the first place but the food was completely disappointing and i lost my appetite from how many times the food went going in and outside the kitchen while it wasn’t cooked properly and after all the arguing i ordered the veal and reef plate because she wouldn’t let us leave without ordering something else , the waiter then came over and told us to order something else because it won’t be cooked properly from how crowded the place is which i then proceeded to tell him that i don’t want to order anything else so he proceeded and told me to order chicken instead . I shouldn’t be forced to eat something i don’t like especially after already ordering something that wasn’t done properly THREE TIMES. They eventually let us leave without ordering something else but the service was a disaster and it shouldn’t be like this especially that it’s on trip advisor and people come from different countries to eat in this place so it’s a really bad representation for a top rated restaurant. This restaurant offers a service so the main concern should be customer satisfaction and nothing else and the treatment we got just proves that they couldn’t care less about that especially that i mentioned that i’m a loyal customer to the place

We had just finished dinner and left when my toddler daughter suddenly needed to use the bathroom. My wife went back inside, and instead of showing a bit of understanding or basic human decency, the staff gave her a very hard time, insisting she couldn’t use the restroom because we were “no longer dining there.” It’s appalling that a restaurant would treat paying customers this way, especially when it involves a young child. We had just eaten there, and this level of rudeness and lack of compassion is unacceptable. We won’t be coming back, and I’d strongly advise others to think twice before supporting a place that treats families like this.

A mix of Syrian & Lebanese cuisine, Byblos Restaurant offers a variety of tasty and authentic meals. From Ouzi, grilled Halloumi, to Mix Grills, the menu is wide and satisfying. Albeit a little slow on the service side, Byblos has a fantastic view of the Beach, overseeing the Four Seasons Hotel Beach and the Alexandrian typical busy roads with yellow and black old cabs. Too hungry? A basket of fresh Arabic bread shall be served with a small appetizer after you’ve placed your order, symbolic of the Arab generosity.

It is a very elegant and beautifully designed restaurant. It truly gives a luxurious impression. The staff are professional, kind, and attentive, and their service was excellent. However, the place was quite noisy. The guests sitting behind us were talking loudly, and their child was running and playing around, which made it hard to enjoy the calm atmosphere I expected. As for the food, it was good overall but could be improved. The seafood soup was excellent, the fattoush was too salty, and the seafood mix grill was decent but could be better. I expected the food to be outstanding, but it was average. Overall, it’s a beautiful and classy place

Quiet place with stunning sea view and decorations. Perfect for dates. The only problem is with food quality compared to prices. For example the Halloumi cheese we ordered was very salty!

great authentic food and really beautiful classy place like u stepped into fancy Lebanon however it's over priced for sure it would be good for a special occasion but Be Careful as you get get charger to things by mistake and if you overlooked won't be fixed after that which is really shameful thing because that place would easily be perfect if they weren't deceiving! won't be coming back unfortunately.

We went to the restaurant as a family tonight. I have to say that we were welcomed by an enthusiastic team who kept checking on us. The grilled options were great but the chicken Fattah was way below average (we had a fattah in a street restaurant a week ago for 0.05% of its price here and was a mile better than those one), full of butter-milky taste. The desert was ok but the kids didn’t like it because of the flavours on it. Overall we liked the atmosphere but not the food

Exceptional service, food and vibe. Highly recommend the fattah.

The place is cozy and quiet, the decoration is excellent but xhairs back are not comfortable at all, however the staff was unsatisfactory and have negative attitude towards Egyptians.

Great service, friendly staff. But mediocre food, very average. Table bread and rolls were airplane-grade, not fresh. Very pricey for the quality. Nice wine selection.

I am more than happy with my experience in Santa Lucia. First of all the service is great. The atmosphere is wonderful as if you’re literally in the 1900s. The food is simply delicious. I ordered mushroom soup, chicken escalope and meat steak. Texture, spices, representation and every single detail is perfect. I love my steak to be well done and this by itself makes the steak hard but in Santa Lucia it was so good soft and juicy. I LOVE SANTA LUCIA. ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks for the chef for the amazing food and the staff for their hospitality. My first, but not the last time.

Went here with Rhapsody Tours and MSC Lirica today. Very good service and extremely good food.

It was my first time in the Santa lucia piano restaurant but it sure not will be the last. The Historical atmosphere which i think it was disappeared from my city, iam easily found it there. Unbelievable level of service there start with the first phone call to reservation, friendly staff, extraordinary dishes taste and piano with warm lighting. It's really experience from the heritage.

7.3 / 10 Santa Lucia … This Restaurant was always and is still the no 1 choice of fine dining in Alexandria … the restaurant was founded in 1933 by an Italian guy and afterwards the Greek people bought it and now mr Yanni the leader of the Greek community in Alexandria is the owner of the restaurant as well as the Greek fish restaurant white and Blue … the Ambience inside the restaurant is very classy … the interiors are all done in rustic wood with a wooden mezzanine … the glass window is frosted so it gets the light from outside but you have your own privacy inside

One of the best meals I've ever had. Wonderful surroundings. And close to the Operal House.

Elegant Alexandrian restaurant perfect for a date night or a cozy romantic dinner. The place has an old and classy European interior and serves a selection of Italian dishes like risotto, pastas, osso buco, and many others. Prices are a bit steep and portions a bit small. Overall, the taste is nice and the experience was pleasant.
