    Blue Nile is an out-of-service ship that is docked on a shore facing the Ritz-Carlton in the River Nile in Cairo, on the island of Zamalek. There are three restaurants in the ship: a Lebanese restaurant, an Egyptian restaurant and a bar at the top, open deck, which they call "Moon Deck". A belly dance takes place every morning at 0130 and last for one hour in the Egyptian restaurant. But in order to be there for that you have to order food for EGP500 or more per head. That is very expensive! The menu is very expensive on the whole. It's very congested. If you're sat at a table and someone occupied the table behind you, their chairs will bump into yours and there will be no way for anyone to get out of their chairs unless everyone decides to leave. Since the ship is docked in the Nile, one can see the activity in the river if one is seated next to a window. But the atmosphere inside is bent to keep the outside world out. There was an advertisement outside that showed ten dishes for EGP130. That was a blatant lie. There was no such deal inside. The bill included taxes and service charges and some other fee as well.

    We went there to have dinner because of the view of Nile and the first barrier we found is that 'dress code' is required (no shorts allowed for men) although they let us in (we were 3 couples in the whole restaurant). I have 2 comments: first, food was really tasty and well prepared, we enjoyed a los. Second, music was so, so, so loud you couldn't speak with the person in front of you until it faded among songs. I asked for a quieter tablet but they said music would be off at 12 am.

    Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was negatively impacted by people smoking inside the establishment, which not only made the atmosphere uncomfortable but also violated health regulations. I also noticed that the windows offering a view of the Nile River were extremely dirty, hindering the possibility of enjoying the beautiful scenery. The combination of indoor smoking and the obscured view due to dirty windows made my visit to this restaurant quite unpleasant. I recommend looking for other options with cleaner and more pleasant environments nearby.

    They discriminate a lot and they basically have few repetitive costumers to whom they give all their attention and the rest doesn't matter. I went to see my favorite dancer but i wouldn't go back to this place. Food was good though

    Amazing experience. Music was a bit too loud and paying for the meal was difficult, but the shisha stayed full. Muhammad did a great job

    Lunch at this place was part of a group trip and the whole experience was rather disappointing. Drinks were served out of plastic cups and the plates were also cheap plastic. The food was cold and quality wise, comparable to a school cafeteria. Staff is slow and annoying. You do never tell a guest that they have to smile, that is rude and disrespectful. Additionally it was not possible to pay by card which is must in 2023.

  • 4/5 Kareem A. 2 years ago on Google
    Plenty of restaurants and coffee shops with a nice view of the Nile River. The downside , it is always crowded especially during weekend and lacks proper hygiene overall.

  • 2/5 MAK A. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is good in the Egyptian restaurant ( except fro the salad), but expensive! Other than that, it is all bad. The place is very crowded with tables very close to each other and no space to move. Staff always standing next to the tables blocking the view for the singer or the dancer. For a small room like that, they have loud speakers enough for a stadium. The music is loud, the singers r shouting into the mics and the speakers are turned up all the way....very unpleasant !!!

  • 1/5 Ahmed L. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This is a complex in the form of a boat on the side of the Nile, the mainland side, the Opera district. The restaurant is old, but the prices are high and it does not offer a gram (Original) هذه معطم علي شكل مركب في جانب النيل البر ناحيه الاوبرا المطعم قديم ولاكن الاسعار مرتفعه 🤔😠 ولايقدم برجرام

  • 5/5 Hani A. 2 years ago on Google
    I was invited there with local friends the food was nice the place is Syrian you can tell from the proformance and food even the gusts you can hardly see an egyptian prices are ok as long as you bring your own Alchol drinks other wise you will be paying over US$ 320 FOR a bottle of scotch

    Great food, however they should work on their billing machines. It's almost always not working and they ask that you go look at your final bill on the computer which I think is inappropriate.

  • 2/5 Mahmoud A. 2 years ago on Google

    Highly recommended for a dinner by the nile , the view is amazing , food is also good, we went during a weekday so the place was not crowded and we didn't need to book a table.
