Taverna

Very cozy restaurant at the end of gleembay away from the crowd, food was alright but nothing stunning.
Shish tawook wrap was yummy but the portions were tooo small, the fries were a bit short like they were leftovers in the fryer and most of them were over cooked. I would recommend they put sauce instead of pickles and get a bigger wrap and cut it in half (which i had to cut myself) 6/10

Negresco was sooo nice and probably the best, had bits of chicken and came straight out the oven, the flour taste in the sauce was obvious but it’s okay 8/10

Pesto chicken was flavorful but chicken portion was small, the pesto wasn’t super fresh and i can also taste the flour strongly.
7/10

Staff were nice and tables were available

First time in Alexandria, I randomly walked into this restaurant. Overall, the food was just edible, nothing memorable. Moreover, the waiter did not serve us. We sat at the table for more than ten or twenty minutes, and no one came to ask. After we called them again and again, two menus were thrown over. The most critical thing is that when we were still eating dessert, an old waiter interrupted our conversation and asked if we wanted to pay. I didn’t want to spoil the fun, so I forced to agree. We checked the bill and found that 34 service charges were added (and there was no prior notice). Okay, I accepted it again. The most serious problem came. I gave them 400 Sichuan 367, but they only returned me 30 without any notice. I was forced to be eat the money, and they were justified. This is my third day in Egypt, a country, and I encountered this kind of thing, so please just save your each single dollar and please don’t get involved!
