Eid Al-Adha is coming up folks, and we’re so excited about our plans for the long vacation. But if you’re looking to stay in Cairo, or have no choice but to stay, we’re here to bring you a list of top-notch restaurants that will make travelers envy your choice.

Yesterday we talked about how to buy the perfect piece of meat, from preservation to cooking and everything you’ll need in between. But if you’re stressed out from work and don’t even want to bother cooking, you can simply head out and enjoy a premium meal at one of these luxury restaurants.

Romanov Steakhouse 

Royal Maxim Palace Kempinski’s Romanov Steakhouse is where you need to head if you are looking to enjoy some delicious steaks

JW’s Steakhouse

Very few restaurants treat meat like JW’s do, and fine dining doesn’t get much finer than this. Their chefs are excellent, their service is impeccable, and the experience will be incomparable.

Kazlak

Kazlak is not your usual steakhouse, but it does offer a wide array of options that include delicious steaks. Their flavourful meals are to die for, and you’ll surely want to come back to try out their other meals. Don’t miss them this Eid.

Culina 

A classic feast is on offer at the The Nile Ritz-Carlton’s Culina, where you can enjoy a lunch buffet for 500++ EGP per person with Egyptian classic dishes, as well as live-cooking, and carving stations.

One Oak

A staple in the Egyptian food market for its delicious sushi and famous steaks. They’re a modern restaurant with excellent grill skills, top-notch ingredients, and an overall premium experience. Their innovative twist on steaks make them a definite choice for Eid Al-Adha.

Sizzler

The Maadi restaurant is a favourite to area residents, but unfortunately has not expanded to other parts of Cairo. Yet, its unique atmosphere and delish dishes make it famous among all Cairenes. A true go-to place if you’re looking for a fine dining experience in Maadi.

Mo Bistro 

Mo Bistro has made a name for itself with its unique dishes and artisan meals. Presentation, uniqueness, and taste are all guaranteed at the Bistro. Located in Mohandessin, and Sheikh Zayed’s Capital Business Park, Mo Bistro is one of the best spots for upscale dining in Cairo.

Casa De Carne

A unique taste of meat is on offer at the house of meat, Casa De Carne. Their take on Brazilian meat is delicious, not to mention their portions are quite generous, with an all-you-can-eat offer in place for true meat lovers.

Steak Out

Going back to basics, Steak Out is one of the oldest steakhouses in Cairo, and can be considered somewhat reasonably priced when compared to others on this list. Its lightly dimmed atmosphere is that of a classic restaurant, and that’s exactly what to expect from the experience, definitely including a delicious meal.

Honourable Mention: Daddy’s Burger 

While we’re mostly talking about steaks and premium meat cuts in this list, one cannot just forget beef burgers when talking about meats. Perhaps one of the best burger spots in Cairo, Daddy’s Burger has grown widely famous for their big portions, unique burger toppings, and heavenly cheese jar. A definite go-to when looking for meat in burgers instead of on plates.
