LA TRATTORIA

Italian restaurant and pizzeria €€

La Trattoria is a chic and friendly Italian address in the heart of Zamalek. It is popular with Italian expatriates and others, as well as with travelers wishing to eat something other than Egyptian flavors. The setting is particularly pleasant, but a little small, so reservations are recommended. In terms of cuisine, you'll find all the Italian specialties here: pizzas, pastas, risottos, as well as a fine menu for meat lovers. The wine list is also well-stocked. On the sweet side, we love the homemade tiramisu!

It is the address of choice for gourmets and/or film lovers who leave the Cimathèque just opposite (building on the left of the synagogue). The only downside is the noisy acoustics, especially when it's full on Saturdays.
