A Taste of Luxor. I first tried this restaurant in 2001, then in 2005 and now in 2025. It never disappoints.
Stepping into Restaurant Mohamed felt like an instant transport to the heart of Luxor's West Bank. The vibrant colors, the aroma of delicious food cooking away, and the warm welcome from the owner (Azab) immediately set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The food was absolutely divine.

Read moreFantastic food, beautiful setting, amazing service, inexpensive! Get the kofta and aubergine - best meal Ive had in Egypt (and Ive been here 3 weeks)!

Incredibly welcoming family running a great restaurant - Egypt needs more...
