If this is the first time you have heard about a place in Egypt called El Gouna, know it’s not your fault. It is safe to say that it is a fairly new place. But what kind of place is it? Some say it is a resort, but now people, especially Egyptians, refer to it as a town.

It was developed by a company owned by Egyptian billionaire Samih Sawiris. So yes, he is the founder of El Gouna. He is also still alive, which shows that the town isn’t old. So, in 1989, Sawiris considered building a place like El Gouna, and the rest is history. Fun fact: he wanted to build a place for his family and friends, and El Gouna was the answer. Now, it is a home for more than 12,000 people.

When we mention “famous tourist destinations in Egypt,” you might think of Hurghada. So you would be surprised to know that El Gouna is located 25 kilometers north of Hurghada; that’s not far at all. Now that you know what El Gouna is, we must tell you why it matters.

I mean, if a place is overseeing Gouna Marina then it is a gem! If you are a swimmer and always have difficulty finding a place to head to after eating, look no more.

We know any restaurant should have good staff, but unfortunately, many ignore this and hire anyone.

It certainly can. Malu’s Deli praises itself for its customer care since it pays a lot of attention to little details; this makes all the difference. For example, during summer, you will find that the tables are located in the North of the restaurant; they do that to provide customers with enough shade. While in winter, they move the tables to the South, where you will be safe from the cold and enjoy the soft sun.

Now you are in for a treat when it comes to the food. Malu’s Deli’s food is simply out of this world, yet their prices are very fair. You pay a good amount for great quality.

Finding a one-of-a-kind restaurant in any town you visit always feels nice. El Gouna has that type of restaurant. I’m talking about Chuchichäschtli – Swiss House. Complicated name, right? So we can call it Swiss House, the only Swiss restaurant in El Gouna. Pretty unique!

What makes the Swiss House special are many reasons, starting with their lively décor, representing the Swiss countryside; we love places that make us feel like we traveled across the globe when we didn’t move.

El Gouna itself is unique, so it is only fair that it has many unique places. Our next restaurant is Jobo’s Restaurant and Sports Bar, the only sports bar in El Gouna. Now, that’s a smart move by the owners. Jobo’s Restaurant and Sports Bar have been around since 2001, and the fact that it remains successful proves to you that it offers good food quality.

When you hear the word “sports,” you would probably only think of football, but as a sports bar, Jobo’s Restaurant and Sports Bar has access to more than football. You can ask them to watch any live game in any sport, and they would have it; this is how considerate they are. I like that they don’t just focus on football and ignore everyone else.

If you aren’t a sports lover, you would still be entertained since they host live entertainment where bands and musicians perform. Could it be more perfect? It could. Now to what we all would like to know: the food. The food there includes soups, appetizers, burgers, pizza, beer, wine, and many more. You should try their signature plank steak; you won’t regret it.

Here is a suggestion for all the seafood lovers out there. If you have been dreaming of enjoying a fish meal on the shore of the Red Sea in Egypt, then your dreams will come true. A restaurant that can offer you such an experience is El Sayadin Restaurant in El Gouna, with its amazing seafood. If you think the word “El Sayadin” is weird, that is only because it is Arabic. When you translate it, it means the fishermen. I don’t know about you, but El Sayadin Restaurant sounds much better than the fishermen’s restaurant.

Aside from the name, El Sayadin Restaurant offers you some of the best seafood and oriental dishes in El Gouna; we know what we recommend! So you can pick whatever you want, and if you aren’t a seafood fan, there are still other options. They are so good that they are located within a resort called Mövenpick El Gouna.

In both cases, we get to enjoy amazing food.

While all the food at HYDRA Seafood Restaurant tastes amazing, people especially like their mussels and calamari. That doesn’t deny the fact that they did justice to Mediterranean cuisine!

Eating there will certainly feel like a dream come true!

One way to know whether a restaurant is good is its number of branches. I’m happy to tell you that Pier 88 is so good that it has more branches around Egypt because of how famous it is in El Gouna.

We may be nearing the end of our list for today, but that doesn’t mean the quality of the restaurants we picked is less. Our next restaurant is evidence of that! We have Tandoor inside one of the hotels in El Gouna called Ali Pasha Hotel.

If you remember earlier, I told you that El Gouna and its restaurants could make you visit the whole world while staying in Egypt. Well, each new restaurant we mention proves that. Here, we have Tandoor, an Indian restaurant offering a new cuisine other than those we mentioned. This difference is also seen in their décor since it is influenced by Indian culture; this makes it worth the visit even more. You can sit outdoors or indoors; both are perfect for us!

Tandoor offers soups, vegetarian dishes, kebabs, curry, desi rice, desserts, and more. Who is the best to give good advice on what food to try? Tandoor themselves!

We guarantee you you won’t be bored with the dishes they serve at the Grill. That is because they serve Egyptian, Mediterranean, and Oriental cuisine. These three are known for their rich flavors, and I firmly believe that you would have never tasted good food if you didn’t try Egyptian food.

Don’t you love it when a restaurant doesn’t stick to one type of food? Because we sure do! La Playa is this kind of restaurant, and they are good at being diverse. Now, before we talk about the food, there is one good reason that would convince you to visit La Playa in El Gouna. That is the fact that the restaurant has a beach right in front of it. Just imagine eating while watching the water right in front of you. Heaven. You can also go swimming while waiting for your food!

So, is there any good thing about La Playa besides the location? Yes! They have live music, and you can even request a certain song to be played. And don’t worry.

You couldn’t be more wrong if you thought we forgot about sushi lovers. Our next restaurant is Barten in El Gouna. Barten is famous for their sushi, ramen, and rolls. For me, many sushi restaurants in Egypt don’t care about the quality; this is why you may find many people dislike sushi. However, Barten and their food are the complete opposite!

The food was delicious, and the black décor worked out in their favor. In addition to all of this, the staff there are super helpful, making the experience perfect. Along with the kind of food we mentioned, Barten also serves robata, stir-fry, nigiri, dessert, wine, and more!

Zomba

As an Egyptian, I couldn’t just let our list for today end without recommending an Egyptian restaurant that serves Egyptian food. So I must talk about Zomba, a local Egyptian restaurant in the heart of El Gouna and Egyptians’ hearts. When you enter Zomba, you will feel like you have lived in Egypt for years. The restaurant’s décor is influenced by Egyptian culture, so it looks very local and very Egyptian; it sounds perfect!

It may be in El Gouna, which is sometimes expensive, but Zomba’s prices are mostly low. So you will enjoy good Egyptian food, talk with an excellent staff, and you won’t pay a lot. Now, this is what I would like to call a good deal.

I must say that Zomba is probably my favorite restaurant, and it probably would be one of your favorites, too! You would only need to taste their foul and falafel to fall in love with them and Egypt.

Our last restaurant today is the wonderful Kan Zaman, which offers Egyptian food, saving the best for last. So, just like Zomba, they also offer foul and falafel. Yet despite both offering Egyptian food, each restaurant is unique. One of Kan Zaman’s advantages is its reasonable prices.

We must mention the differences between Kan Zaman and Zomba since both offer the same food. Kan Zaman isn’t as cheap as Zomba. It’s also a lot more elegant when it comes to décor; they have nice tables. Another reason that would make you want to try Kan Zaman is the fact that the chef is Egyptian. This means he knows what he is doing and what local ingredients he should use.

Now, regarding the food, you won’t regret any penny you will spend at Kan Zaman. You’ll get to taste their soups, Egyptian dishes, pasta, grilled dishes, sandwiches, and a wide selection of drinks. Kan Zaman will impress you just like all the restaurants that we mentioned!
