Ismail Alessandria Reviews
Dopo una giornata in fiera, non potevamo scegliere in un sabato sera un luogo tranquillo,buono, accogliente per concludere una giornata in compagnia di amici. Sono stati accontentati tutti palati dai Vegani, ai Favisti, agli amanti del piccante, agli adoratori di tè caldo e freddo. Da tornarci
Io e la mia migliore amica abbiamo passato una serata bellissimo in questo ristorante,vi sentivamo a casa! Dall'accoglienza di Ismail (il proprietario)al cibo egiziano, marocchino algerino all'ambiente autentico...per una sera mi è sembrato di essere tornata in Egitto, hanno pure narghilè... davvero consigliatissimo questo posto!
Booked through TheFork, the traditional Arabic dishes were very good. We were offered welcome tea, which was very welcome. I also recommend the desserts. Without the TheFork discount, it's a bit pricey for our budget, but it might still be worth it if you're looking for authentic, carefully prepared ethnic food.
The atmosphere transports you to the backstreets of Egypt. Excellent service, where you can even chat with the owner. Fabulous North African food.
A unique place in Alexandria with a welcoming, colorful, and very peaceful atmosphere. The mint green tea and hookah are delicious!
Great experience, highly recommend
It was a wonderful experience. The fastest trip to egypt and the best Falafel of my life in one evening. All the foods were fresh and hand made by the owner. Everything was delicius and well served.
A place to indulge every now and then, a characteristic Arab restaurant where you'll find a special welcome from the owner! Vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, all very tasty and perfectly spiced...hummus, baba ganoush, vegetable tabbouleh, couscous with vegetables, and various tajines! The hot mint tea is special!!
A lovely dinner at Ismail's, a dear friend, but above all a true professional. Tabbouleh, falafel, couscous with vegetables, chicken, or beef...not to mention the desserts!!! The place is even more beautiful than before, with the option of eating at the table or sitting comfortably on the sofas or cushions at the lower tables, in true Arabian style. A must try again and again.
Perfect setting to enjoy a good shisha
I love it! I discovered this place three years ago and I always go there whenever I can. The owner is great and willing to give you all the information you need. It's a very quiet place where you can smoke a shisha (hookah) in peace. Their music is also incredibly relaxing. You can also have dinner and try their typical Arabic dishes. The cushions on the floor are quite comfortable. The only downside is that it's impossible to find parking nearby; it's always full. I think the price of a shisha is the same everywhere. Not very high. 💆🏼👏🏼🎼
Posto bellissimo ti trasporta immediatamente in un'atmosfera da mille e una notte con tutte queste decorazioni arabeggianti e il fatto che ci si possa sedere per terra su dei cuscini. I piatti che vengono detti a voce erano tutti molto buoni come anche le varie tisane tipiche che abbiamo preso. Inoltre abbiamo preso un narghilè che è stato interessante e divertente da provare. Il padrone è stato molto gentile e disponibile ci ha fatto davvero sentire a nostro agio, l'unica cosa è che lavorando da solo secondo me a volte si perdeva o spariva in cucina per un po'
Posto veramente caratteristico con un padrone di casa veramente accogliente, simpatico e con abiti della tradizione. Ottimo il tè alla menta che servono all'arrivo, buono l'antipasto. Peccato il manzo del cous cous un po' duro, ma sono certo che la prossima volta andrà meglio!
Posto tipico e unico nel suo genere. Rilassante ed estremamente trascendentale. Proprietàrio unico impiegato genitilissimo è molto preparato sulla cucina araba e non. Il rapporto qualità prezzo non dispiace anche se potrebbe fare meglio. Da difficoltà trovare parcheggio per la posizione. Lo contraddistingue il narghilè a diversi gusti con tabacco egiziano.
A truly unique and atmospheric place, it truly feels like an Arab restaurant. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful. The food is obviously unique and different from ours, but some dishes are truly delicious. The prices are fair. If you want to try something different, it's worth a visit.
Good food, nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Portions are decent. The traditional bread is amazing! The owner personally explains all the dishes available on the menu, but what I didn't like was that you don't know how much you'll spend until you get the bill, because they don't hand you a menu. Also, before pricing, he checked our discount with The Fork and only applied it to the dishes, excluding drinks. Finally, the POS didn't work.
A 0 for the refusal to give us a menu to see the dishes and prices... when it came to the bill (5 courses, 2 bottles of water, and 1 dessert), we would have spent 100 euros!!! With the fork at 50% off, luckily the bill was lower. The place is quaint, the owner is very friendly and good at explaining the dishes... home-made food, simple ingredients, but everything is truly delicious.
I've been coming to this place for many years. Aside from the fact that I find the mandatory drinks scandalous when we already drink hookah anyway. And then there's been a price increase... a coffee 4 euros? Why are the mandatory drinks 4 euros? When in reality the menu says a coffee costs 2... and 2 euros is already excessive... I'm sorry, but after so many years I'll be forced to stop coming! Plus, the coffee cups were visibly dirty... And the cleanliness of the place also leaves much to be desired.
Very bad place...
