“ As an Egyptian living in the USA, I always miss the unique flavors and hospitality of our culture — and this seafood place brought it all back for me! The owners are Egyptian, and you can truly taste the love and tradition they put into every dish. The seafood was incredibly fresh, perfectly seasoned, and reminded me of the coastal flavors back home. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff treated us like family — exactly how it should be. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving fresh seafood with an authentic Egyptian touch. It’s a must-try for Egyptians in Texas or anyone who wants to experience real Egyptian hospitality through amazing food. Can’t wait to come back again — thank you for making me feel at home! ???????? ”
“ I recently visited this newly opened gem—just a few days into its soft launch. A quick search revealed it to be the only Egyptian seafood spot currently in Houston, and it proudly lives up to that distinction. I tried the grilled Bazinga ( with Radda) and was instantly transported to the shores of Alexandria—rich, smoky, and remarkably authentic. The fried shrimp and calamari followed, both delightfully crisp and flavorful, though leaning slightly on the salty side. Service was warm and attentive, with the staff offering generous complimentary touches like a fresh green salad and a perfectly balanced tahini. Their next step, I hear, is launching a dedicated dinner service—and with such a strong start, I have no doubt it’s going to be a resounding success. A promising newcomer to Houston’s culinary scene that’s well worth watching. ”
“ This is hands down the best seafood I have eaten in America. Real authentic Egyptian seafood. Everything is cooked to perfection, seasoned just like back home. It’s like a mini Egypt landed in Katy Texas. You must try this place, you won’t be disappointed! ”
