This restaurant was recommended by regular British visitors to Luxor and was a great recommendation! The restaurant was opened by a British lady, but serves Egyptian, as well as British food. This food was such good value for money, eg soup was 0.50GBP and a main course, such as half a duck with apple sauce, roast potatoes and vegetables was only 2.80 GBP! Our whole bill for two courses each and four cokes came to less than 8 GBP.

The Tutankhanmun Restaurant is at the West Bank of Luxor. Turn left when you landed on the ferry dock. It is about 2 minutes walk. The restaurant is on the roof terrace of a two-storey low-rise. You can have a stunning view of the Luxor Temple, and watching the felucca glided along the Nile. The food is basically Egyptian. The chicken curry is a must try - not too spicy with a tint of sweentness because of the frunits added into it. The most fabulous thing is that there are three side dishes (let alone the bread and salad), potates, spinach and something of a mixed vegetable. Rosemary chicken is also highly recommended. We had just ordered two main courses and the food was so good that we finished them all and ended up with a big big stomach. The mint tea was also excellent. The whole meal costed only EP60! What a bargain! The Chef, Mammould, had served a French expedition team and also worked for several 5-star French hotels, such as Isis Hotel and Le Meridien. Mammould speaks fluent French and English, and is a very friendly man. He is renovating the second floor to turn it into a B&B. He showed us around, where the kitchen would be, how the bathroom looked like. Friendly man!
The chicken curry is my favourite. Slightly different from those Indian curry I used to have, Mammould's curry has a sweet flavour, with some shredded coconut on the top. The fresh fruit adds a delightful taste in the curry. Excellent to go with the flavoured rice.

 ~ La Mammas Restaurant ~ by Heavens-Mirror
We stayed at Le Meriden Luxor but you are allowed to eat out in the other hotels if you wish.
The restaurant is located next to a pond which has beautiful swans and ducks in the pool.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and our food came very quickly.
I had minestrone soup for starters, spaghetti bolognese with garlic bread, and ice cream for dessert. We also had a couple of beers. Three of us ate for less than 300 Egyptian Pounds. That included drinks, starters, main course and desserts and all with a friendly and quick waiter service. It was a bargain.
I highly recommend coming to La Mamma's at least once during your stay in Luxor.

Or you can walk there which only takes around 15 minutes

We found this restaurant after reading a review on this site. I only wish we'd gone on our 1st day in Luxor. We wouldn't have gone anywhere else!! Fabulous food- Mostly freshly made and well cooked English and Egyptian food with one special Egyptian night (Tuesday I think) and roast dinners on Sunday. They also have freshly made pies, fish dishes, steaks, omelettes, curries and soups (lentil and potato soup was amazing!!)Run by an English woman and her Egyptian husband who are both absolutely lovely and extremely accomodating. We ate 2 evening meals and a lunch here and were never disappointed. If you are staying in Luxor you must eat here!
Impossible to say one favourite. I had fabulous lentil and potato soup for about 10Le (about £1) and a delicious piece of sea bass with vegetables and chips. Onion rings were lovely. My friend had the fillet steak and raved about it being the most succulent she had ever tasted. We were really upset to miss the Egyptian night as we love Egyptian food and Yasser's mum does all the cooking for that night (so really authentic).

 McDonalds View by CandS
McDonalds in Luxor probably has the best view I have ever seen from a McDonalds restaurant anywhere in the world... We went up to the 3rd floor to eat our food and had an amazing view over the city of Luxor, the Luxor Temple and in the background we could see the Valley of the Kings...

 El Kababgy by Angelal
This restaurant is excellent, it is spotlessly clean both in the restaurant and the kitchens which you can see from outside. You can choose to either sit outside by the Nile or inside the restaurant itself which is decorated nicely and has a nice modern feel to it.
The menu is slightly more adventerous that many of the other small restaurants in Luxor with the added bonus of having a Nile view. There is a grilled section where you can choose from Grilled Chicken, Mixed Grill, Lamb Cutlets, Pigeon,livers and much more. There is a nice selection of soups, burgers and sandwiches as well as pastas and pizzas. The also have a wide selection of traditional Tagines as well as lots of vegetarian dishes I had the Duck with Orange sauce with Oriental rice and I can only describe it as totally delicious. Adel had the Mixed Grill and this looked delicious also. The chef cooks the koftas on a BBQ outside so the smell drifts across which really gets your appetite going. The staff are nice and friendly too.
This is also a great place for a coffee and to enjoy the view if you don't fancy eating.
One good sign is that the toilets are probably one of the cleanest in Luxor and a man checks them frequently to ensure they are clean. Only downside is that the toilet door has a huge mirror - on the inside which is just a bit off putting to say the least.
We visited El Kababgy for a special lunch but it would be interesting to see what the atmosphere is like in the evening. The music they play there is pretty good also, they alternate between Egyptian/Arab music and Western music.
Overall, highly recommended!!!

 View towards Luxor from our
table by Brian&Sally
The menu appears fairly limited, but don't let that stop you. A wide variety of vegetable dishes - which varies from day to day - will be brought out with your meal for everyone to share. And it was the vegetable dishes that were the star of the show. The meat was good, but the veggies were just yum!
Make sure you're hungry when you arrive; dish quantities are NOT small, plus there's the usual bowl of bread.
Being a rooftop restaurant, the view across the Nile to the Luxor Temple is wonderful, particularly as the sun goes down. And the cooling breeze is good too. You can also watch the procession of cruise boats depart for their trips.
They're all good! Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageDirections: Get off the ferry on the West Bank, turn left along the river, dodge the camel and motorboat touts and it's just on the other side of the road that heads west out of town.

 Africa's relaxed setting by Tijavi
Food is served on local earthenware - very authentic. Their Egyptian menu of baked chicken is highly recommended. It is a medley of rice and vegetable side dishes and baked chicken, of course. Simple, but tasty and filling. The vegetable side dish of tomatoes, zucchini and other local varieties is very refreshing, especially on a hot day.
Staff is friendly and attentive. I commented on how good the vegetable side dish was, and I was offered a refill - not once but twice. If there is one thing that sums up the whole place, it would be Ahmed's (one of the waiters) reassuring spiel - "Relax, you're in Egypt." If I were to rephrase him, it should have been, "Relax, you're in Africa."
