Do not go to this trash cockroach hole. Waiter will stand by the bathroom and wait for your wife to come out and try to give her his number on a paper behind his back like a sneaky little rat.
Not to be missed. Grilled beats fried.
You picked your choice of seafood and they cooked then for you and serve on your table.

Abuqir offers a unique seafood experience with a great selection of dishes, providing an authentic Egyptian seafood experience. Customers can choose their seafood and how it's prepared, which adds to the excitement. The food is rich in flavor, with each dish being unique and fresh, featuring Middle Eastern spices. The eggplant appetizers remain a standout, while the grilled octopus and garlic shrimp are must-tries.
Customers suggest ordering at least 1/2 portion of any seafood, and the restaurant knows how to cook each type, whether fried or grilled. The avocado salad is delicious, and the fish is super fresh, contributing to a clean and cool interior that avoids a strong seafood smell. Quick service is a highlight, with food coming out promptly. The scallops are described as buttery, while the grilled options tend to be preferred over fried ones.
The flavors build with each bite, and the selection includes both meat and plant-based dishes. The decor enhances the dining experience, making it feel super authentic and homey. While the place can get crowded, the employees, including the owner/manager, provide reliable excellence consistently, ensuring customers enjoy their time despite any minor inconveniences.
