I have to say this restaurant is top quality. It’s next to the Nile view but don’t let that put you off. The food is freshly cooked to order and well presented.
The atmosphere is very Egyptian. The staff are very obliging and offer the little extras to go with the food. The pricing is reasonable usually around 200 LE per item.

Re: Thebes restaurant
Totally agree. This is my local restaurant and it is always good value with good service. I saw this morning that the open air part by the river had gone again due to "work" on the Corniche but the restaurant upstairs is still functioning.

Re: Thebes restaurant
Could be a problem! Because of the work on the new Corniche, there are no outside tables on Ramlah. The restaurant has put some tables beside the stairs. Not ideal and quite cramped. but the food is still good. But that may change .....

Re: Thebes restaurant..
Trying to recommend any decent restaurants in Luxor has become extremely difficult these days.
Nick and his pal spent a fortune in the Old W.P. the food was sh*t.
I used to have breakfast in the Oasis (Palace) Cafe near the Coptic school in Labib Habashy St.
Sofra in Mo Habib St always tried hard to please as did Snobs. Not forgetting JJ s' in Karnak.
These days I'm told, one has to visit different establishments for a particular dish the rest of the menus
fall well short of decent fayre.
These days I usually recommend Shiek Ali The Marsam Guest Hse as the only place I would spend my money.
Are there no catering schools around here ? "obviously not" ....
Ps: What with all the Cini knocking around a decent Chinese Restaurant wouldn't go amiss methinks...
