LE Grillon Restaurant & Garden Cafe — Restaurant in Cairo

This place is the definition of a tourist trap.

Service:

The service was incredibly bad. The restaurant is clearly aimed at tourists and yet the waiter speaks no foreign languages. He then got three of our orders wrong, and the food took almost an hour to arrive, while the restaurant was mostly empty. He brought bread crackers while we waited, but forgot to bring the baba ghanoush until we were halfway through our meal. The restaurant staff were surly and annoyed whenever we asked them for something. It's a scam.

Food:

You're eating mediocre Egyptian restaurant food, served by waiters in bowties. The food is edible, which is the most I can say. The prices are vastly beyond the quality of the food; for the same price you can eat something spectacular somewhere else. They trick you by putting prices you'd see elsewhere without including the tax and service charges. Some of the food we had was clearly recently taken out of a freezer.

In conclusion, this is a restaurant that deserves to go out of business, unless it massively improves. Do not give...

Considering the immediate surrounding with noisy roads and cars. The restaurant is a nice relieve. For 1st timer it can be a little intimidating but they allow you inside to view and are polite when some tourist chose to go elsewhere. The place has a”garden”are, a high chair area and normal dinning area. Furnishing is dated. Service is very good! Waiters speak enough English to make good recommendations and conversations. Always coming to check if we are enjoying ourselves. All of them are very nice and took good care of us. Food. Very decent and nice. We enjoyed it. It can be more refined but overall not bad. We ordered 2 starters and 2 mains. The baked seafood rice is very tasty Price. 14% VAT is normal , 12% service tax for the level of service we got - fair. Gave 4 stars Bec The place and furnishing is a little run down. Paid around 1650 pounds or $33 for all these food and drinks in total. Oh the chef even came out to chat w customers to make sure...
