The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

Where you usually go to eat depends on what time of day it is, or what day of the week, but at Santoku Sushi and Steakhouse, that doesn’t matter because every occasion is suitable for an outing at this New Cairo hotspot.

Located on North Road 90, Santoku’s vast parking lot immediately eliminates the dread of finding a temporary home for your vehicle. When the clock strikes one in the afternoon, a sunny lunch by the pool awaits you in the open air.

It features a little bit of everything; chicken wings, ramen soup, filet mignon, and Angus steak, which are only but a few items from the Chef’s Specialties menu, along with the restaurant’s signature Surf’n’Turf sushi and steak dishes. We won’t tell you much about the teppanyaki live show – we’ll just let the pictures do the talking.

The menu will suit business lunches, romantic dinners, or celebratory outings, including birthdays! The restaurant goes the extra mile and puts together a magnificent sushi tart that will surely make your birthday wishes come true, one sushi roll at a time. You can also make your dreams of performing come true at Santoku’s weekly karaoke on Tuesday nights. Who knows who might be in the crowd that night and spots your talent! You might be in for stardom.

Apart from the laid-back piano tunes that the resident pianist plays every Friday, Santoku is introducing its Dine and Dance Thursdays that will get you moving to the pumping beats of the DJ on the decks all the way to midnight.

After exploring everything that the restaurant has to offer, we wonder if there’s any more to ask for. If there is, we’re sure that Santoku will find a way to make it happen.
