Skyboo — Restaurant in Alexandria

Overall, my experience at this restaurant was a mixed bag. While the food and staff service were both moderate in quality, the fantastic view definitely made up for it.

Starting with the food, I found it to be decent but nothing exceptional. The menu offered a variety of options, but the execution fell short of my expectations. The flavors were average, and some dishes lacked that wow factor. However, there were a few standout items that were quite enjoyable. It seemed like the kitchen had potential but needed some improvement in consistency and creativity.

Moving on to the staff service, it was also average. The waitstaff was friendly enough but lacked attentiveness at times. There were instances where we had to wait longer than expected for our orders to be taken or for our drinks to be refilled. Additionally, they didn't go above and beyond to make us feel welcomed or special during our visit. It would have been nice to receive more personalized attention.

However, what truly made this restaurant worth visiting was its fantastic view. The location boasted breathtaking scenery that enhanced the dining experience significantly. Whether it was overlooking a beautiful coastline or a stunning cityscape, the view alone made up for any shortcomings in other areas.

In conclusion, while this restaurant may not excel in terms of food quality or staff service, its fantastic view is what sets it apart. If you're looking for a place with an incredible ambiance and are willing to compromise on other aspects, then this restaurant is worth considering. Just be prepared for an average dining...

Staff was efficient even if busy. Coffe was acceptable and floor supervisor/manager accomodating with special request.

Good view and decent atmosphere. Comfortable seating. Although entrace/access is undesireable.

I ordered penne with shrimps. The dish arrived on my table suspiciously quickly. Portion was very good size but I was not impressed with the quality. Pasta was cooked ok (way passed "al dente" but still acceptable). prawns just about cooked, and everything was drawn in cream but not really "brought together". Could not taste the shrimps in the cream (although shrimps were abundant). I can just assume they used cooked shrimps which were thrown in the cream and heated up with the pasta.

I would have expected sautee shrimps with lemon and herbs of choice, perhaps fish broth for flavour, thickened with roux and if really necessary, considerate use of cream, cooked/brought together for flavour.

Still probably one of the best places I found...

We went to this place for breakfast, but our experience was quite disappointing. Upon arrival, we were immediately taken aback by a strong fishy smell in the restaurant. The place was not cool enough, with only fans running, which didn't help with the unpleasant odor. Additionally, the table we were seated at was not clean, the chairs were sticky and the blinds were down, blocking what should have been an awesome view.

We ordered eggs, but they took 30 minutes to arrive and were not prepared as we had requested. Despite there being only three occupied tables, we had to wait a considerable amount of time for someone to take our comments. This was quite frustrating.

We decided to leave without eating or drinking anything. To our shock, they brought us the full bill and expected us to pay the entire amount, despite the poor service...
