Umm Ali Foods — Restaurant in Al Baairat Village

Absolutely incredible. The most amazing authentic experience and Egyptian food I've had ever...we went with local friends who confirmed that this cooking was the real deal, home but better. Fresh, hospitality, yes you might have a wait but you can order and go watch the boats at the nile or chill with the owners beautiful family. (This isn't your spot if you're a greedy European cheap tourist looking to Exploit locals, pay the cheapest price for unbelievable quality and even better hospitality - as the 1 star reviewer showed himself to be). This is the spot for authentic genuine food, real connection to a local Egyptian family and a beautiful experience. Thank you... We will...

Life got in the way so I was late to leaving a review but it's been on my list of things to do. I had the pleasure of going to this restaurant when my friends and I visited Egypt last year in September. We came across it completely by chance and honestly I'm so glad I did. The food was a bit of a wait but it was delicious and more so than that the owner Mustafa was a gentlemen and helped to organise a hot air balloon for us. His wife was very kind and hospitable while we waited for the food. Honestly give it a visit when you check out Luxor. Thanks from...

We were well welcomed by the host as we arrived but then we had to wait up to 2 hours to be served. The dishes were very medium, overcooked rice and burnt chicken. This might not have been an issue if the check hadn't been so expensive! The prices weren't displayed and the owner told us that he would inform us about them if we asked (which we didn't) - but we did not expect it to be so high! We ate fish at noon for 200EGP and tonight we paid it 700EGP.

3000EGP for 5 people, 2 hours wait, burned food...Would not recommend, try the restaurants...
