Downtown El Gouna

Maison Thomas

Cairo's century-old pizzeria, transplanted to the Red Sea

The Gouna outpost of Cairo's legendary pizzeria (feeding Egypt since 1922): thin, blistered pizzas, proper charcuterie and a room that mixes families, night-owls and homesick Cairenes. Reliable in the way only century-old institutions are.

Best time

Any time — it's the town's default casual dinner

Entry & fees

À la carte, friendly mid-range pricing.

Insider tip

Their pizzas travel well — order takeaway to a lagoon-side spot at sunset and you've out-dined every restaurant terrace for a tenth the spend.

Downtown (Kafr El Gouna)

Kafr El Gouna Dining Crawl

One walkable arcade district, a dozen good kitchens

Downtown's shaded arcades and plazas hold the town's densest eating: Egyptian grills, Levantine mezze, sushi, gelato, breakfast institutions and late cafés, all within a five-minute wander. The move is to graze — one starter here, mains there, dessert on a third terrace.

Best time

Evenings; Friday brunch culture is strong too

Entry & fees

Free to wander; you pay where you sit. Budgets from shawarma to splurge coexist happily.

Insider tip

Do dessert last at whichever gelato window has the queue of Italian tourists — the queue knows.
