While looking for a scenic place to dine for our first night in Giza, located Heightopia and saw positive reviews. We made the 25 minute walk from our hotel, and found the reviews to be well guided!!
Enjoyed refreshing virgin Mojitos - Julie had the Passion Fruit and I enjoyed a Strawberry! The mint and soda made for A refreshing sensation on a very warm Giza evening dining outside!
For a starter, we shared a Beetroot Salad with arugula, pistachios and feta - delightful flavours! Dinner was a Seafood Risotto - calamari and shrimp. The risotto was rich and creamy, and the seafood fresh while not heaps of it on the plate.
The views of the pyramids and sunset was exceptional, as the pictures show!
Overall, very good value for a tasty meal and sensational views of Giza, the Great Pyramids and sunset!!
Be aware you enter a hotel with no concierge, and take an elevator up to the 11th floor to find the restaurant entrance... Something to watch for if walking to this worthwhile establishment....
