We had quite welcoming night with Nile Cafe & Lounge. We were group of 11 people and had great meals together. The customer service was amazing. The food was flavourful, seasoned amazingly and cooked to perfection. Overall, great place to eat at

We came for the Egyptian food and we were not disappointed! It was amazing! Complimentary peanuts and baklava were delivered as we were looking at the menu. Great start! We had 2 different dips with pita, (hummus and Baba Ghanougsh), both were fabulous! We also had Waraa aneb (grape leaves stuffed with rice and meat), and fatoush salad - also delicious and so fresh! Our server brought out Kebba (a vegetarian sausage) with fries - so good and of course we had Egypt's national dish Kusheri, a dish made with rice, lentils, and macaroni. It is served with 3 different dips (tomato based, spicy and lemon based - all added something unique to the dish) and again it was good! We also shared the mixed grill (which had chicken, beef, prawn, rice, peppers and more)! It was a ton of food but we're glad we ordered everything to share! We had a fabulous evening and the food was above expectations!! SO GOOD! The owners were so kind and personable - sharing stories of Egypt and helping us choose our selections. This is a family run business and we would highly recommend it! Everything was incredible! We even declined dessert (as we were already stuffed) but they brought out a complimentary rice pudding and tea. It was delicious and we at every bite! We will be coming back! Thanks for a great evening!

I just Ubereats the Kofta bomb sandwich. The meat had 0 spices in it. The sandwich literally smelled like a butcher’s store. Incredibly zifir. Idk 🤷‍♀️ I thought middle eastern food is all about spices. The potato wedges were great though. But the Kofta was not edible, I couldn’t even finish one bite before I threw it in the garbage. I was looking forward to liking this restaurant. I’ll try other stuff. But define avoid meat.

The food here is good and the shisha is as well... However the owner is a complete clown thinks this is egypt and everything is a rip off it's probably the most expensive shisha place out there for no reason at all... one of the guy servers is very nice I think he's Moroccan.

I recently visited Nile Cafe & Lounge, and I had an amazing experience! The service was excellent, and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The place is super clean and beautifully decorated, which makes you feel right at home.

The food was absolutely delicious everything was fresh and full of authentic Egyptian flavors. All the drinks were freshly made and of very high quality.

I highly recommend Nile Cafe & Lounge to anyone who loves Egyptian vibes and wants to enjoy great food and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Definitely a must-try!

I was lucky enough to stumble upon this place where I found the elegant mixture between western and oriental Egyptian vibes. Food is amazing with an adequate serve size. Warm atmosphere and welcoming by Mahmoud & Dr. Ashraf. All the best guys. Will come back again for sure.
