The mix of Egyptian spices elevates each dish, creating a memorable tasting experience. The attentive and polite staff add to the charm, ensuring that every meal is served with a smile. Many guests highlight the generous portions, especially with platters that cater well to groups.

Furthermore, the extensive menu accommodates various preferences, from seafood lovers to those looking for quick bites. Popular lunchtime and dinner options make this spot ideal for any time of day.

Most Disliked

Look out for the shop's need for a bit of revamping, as some patrons mention the decor could use a fresh touch. A few diners have noted that service can lag when the restaurant fills up, especially during peak hours like busy Sundays. The layout may feel cozy, but it can lead to a crowded ambiance on particularly busy nights. Additionally, although most seafood dishes receive high marks, a handful of guests find certain items a tad undersalted or overly seasoned, so don’t hesitate to ask for adjustments if needed.

Accessibility sometimes gets a mention in reviews, though staff are always ready to assist. Being mindful of these points can make your visit more enjoyable.

Amazing flavours. Well presented and polite staff. Fish was so fresh you can taste the sea. Shop itself needs revamping but won't stop me from going there again. Best fish restaurant in london and price is very reasonable.
