Enab Beirut — Restaurant in Cairo

Went to this place expecting some good Lebanese food but dear god the Lebanese would go to war with Egypt if they knew how bad this food was. First of all, we told the waiter that we wanted the famous view of the water and fountain that the restaurant is known for. They told us that all the tables were currently occupied which is totally okay. They told us that they would seat us at a temporary table for now and as soon as a table is available, they would move us. However, multiple waiters approached us and offered us tables near the windows of the restaurant, further away from the fountain view, which we thought was odd. It’s as if they reserved the temporary table we sat at and we’re trying to make us leave but then they apologized. Anyways, a table was finally available and we sat next to the fountain view. I wish I can stop here and tell you that the food was good and everything worked out afterwards but unfortunately this is not the case. When it came time to order, the menu says that some plates are served with veggies and potatoes but when the food actually came they only gave us a side of dried bread and veggies that looked like it had been stepped on. We asked them where the potatoes were and they told us that the plate offers two options; one with potatoes and one with veggies. The menu did not mention that nor were we told by the waiter. To make up for it though, they gave us potatoes which was very kind of them. But again, I can’t stop here. My table ordered mixed grill, shish tawook, chicken farik and much more. All the chicken and meat were desert DRYYYYY and the portions were TINYYYY. I could swear I chewed for a good thirty minutes on a piece of kafta. I was forced to drink so much water due to its dryness. I don’t want to make this review any longer than it already is so in conclusion, steer away from this place. It might have a nice view but that’s about all it can offer. My table spent 1,000 L.E + on a variety of different plates and none of us were satisfied and we came home hungry. You are better off ordering from the MacDonald’s across the fountain.

Tourists and local Egyptians, I wholeheartedly recommend going home for dinner than going...

It was a racist treatment just because we were foreigners we were treated differently , food was okay but staff were not polite or helpful we had to find our own table after being told that we can't sit on the table because we were a family of 5 and that would block the way and it would be crowded and it's a rule in the restaurant, after we ordered food,and were halfway through the meal, a native walks in with his 7members family and sits on the same table we asked for.!!!!!((what happened to the no more than 4 people rule and all that talking and explaining that we can't sit on the table and making a fuzz about it)) , after talking to the manager which was not much of help he told us the same rule, until we pointed out the ppl that were sitting on the table we wanted he said we could move to any table we want!!!!!!What's the point since we are almost done with our food, I try my best to never giva a bad review since we are a constant travellers, but this time they have earned it. Don't recommend this restaurant as there is many restaurants in the same Square...

You want to put a smile on my face then take me to authentic Lebanese restaurant to eat authentic Lebanese food. You think it is easy to find one? Unfortunately it is not. This place located in cairo festivals has two good Lebanese restaurant and this is one of them. The location by the pool and the shows they have each 30 minutes is awesome. The staff looks good and our waiter was Samuel I guess. He helped us a lot and the food was super extremely delicious authentic lebanese food and taste. We had hummus, mammary, plate of grilled mixes meat and fatoosha and vegetarians grapes leaves. I wish my stomach would have take more but those were more than enough. We paid 600 egyptian pound for all of those. In my opinion it is not expensive but from locals opinion it was over priced for a meal. But I will always pay good amount of money for good food like this. If I ever go back to Cairo I will definitely have my Lebanese dish in this restaurant Staff 7/10 Cleanliness 10/10 Location and view 15/10 Food tasty 20/10 Food appearance...
