I was looking for a local-food late-bite restaurant for my wife and I as we walked back to our hotel and found this great place. This is an open air restaurant with lots of tables, a beautiful view of the Nile and happy and loud music playing on the background. It was kind of late (probably 9 PM). Yet, lots of local families with children made the place feel alive and safe. We were probably the only tourists there, yet, we were greeted and welcomed in a very nice and kind way by a waiter.

Read moreI visited King's Gate Cafe in Luxor and had an amazing experience. The restaurant is located right by the Nile, so the view was absolutely breathtaking. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, and the staff were friendly and attentive.

Overall, my experience at King's Gate Cafe was fantastic. The food was delicious, the view was stunning, and the service was excellent. I highly recommend this cafe to anyone...

The bread was wonderful, the tajines were so flavourful and filled with delicious aubergines and tomatoes and spices, the rice had the perfect texture and taste and the tahini was also very nice. I can definitely recommend this place...
