Orangette — Restaurant in Geziret al Zamalik, Jazirat al Zamalik

Orangette; a beautiful constant in a changing city. Walking through its doors feels like stepping into a warm, familiar embrace, and that feeling is built on decades of wonderful experiences.

My memories with Orangette stretches back twenty years, to lively evenings here with my friends. We would spend hours laughing over great food, feeling so sophisticated in this vibrant yet cozy space. It was the place to be.

Then, fifteen years ago, it became the backdrop for one of my most cherished memories: my partner's surprise birthday dinner. The atmosphere was buzzing yet intimate, and the celebration was perfect. It’s a night we still talk about.

What makes all of this so special is that the quality has never wavered. The "fair price vs. quality" ratio is, and always has been, spot on. You truly feel you get excellent value for a meal fairely crafted with care and superb ingredients. The menu evolves, but the commitment to excellence does not.

In a world where restaurants come and go, the long-term continuity of Orangette is something that deserves a standing ovation. It’s a rare and precious thing to have a place that has hosted so many chapters of one’s life with such consistent grace and flavor.

Here’s to many more years and memories. Thank...

And to top it all, it is really loud outside because of these big families occupying many...
