About This Spot
Stepping into Gingko at Nile City Towers is like discovering a serene pause amidst Cairo’s vibrant rhythm. The gentle hum of conversation blends with the soft clink of glasses, while through expansive windows, the Nile River stretches out as a calming backdrop. It’s a place where leisurely afternoons drift into relaxed evenings, inviting guests to savor moments as much as meals.
The atmosphere strikes a balance between refined ease and warm familiarity. Guests often find themselves caught in the subtle choreography of attentive yet unobtrusive service—hosts and waiters who seem to anticipate needs with a quiet grace, making the experience feel personal without the fuss. The décor and lighting mold a welcoming cocoon that encourages both intimate dinners and small celebrations, all enhanced by views that remind you why the city’s heart beats along this great river.
Gingko’s culinary offerings create a tapestry of flavors that hint at distant shores while anchored in local warmth. The menu moves effortlessly between bright, fresh dishes and comforting, richly layered plates—each course designed to unfold in thoughtful progression. Whether enjoying the delicate balance of a seafood roll, the nuanced spice of a carefully crafted salad, or the delicate finish of a creamy panna cotta, the food invites slow, attentive savoring. These are not just meals but shared experiences, where texture, color, and aroma come together to complement both the company and the view.
Visitors often leave feeling touched by the genuine hospitality that permeates every interaction. There’s a quiet confidence here—an assurance that every detail, from the welcoming greetings to the final bite, is part of a story meant to be remembered. Gingko doesn’t just offer a meal; it offers a moment of stillness, conversation, and discovery high above Cairo’s bustling streets.

The food was absolutely delicious. We had the sea bass, mango and avocado salad, spicy volcano, chicken kebab, beef tacos, prawn rice and chicken rice and everything was a bang back to back. Our waiter, Mina made sure we had a great time, well entertained. He should receive a raise. And yes, you can view the Nile river from this restaurant.

Amazing restaurant! We’ve been traveling through Egypt for 10 days and staying at luxury hotels and this was the best food we had without a doubt. Every single dish that we ordered was delicious (special highlight to the shrimp volcano and the sea bass niguiri). Make sure to try the cocktails too! Service was also incredible. Mohamed, Mr Ahmed and all the team were super attentive and made us feel at home.

This is by so far my favorite place in Cairo. The atmosphere is amazing and the staff are great. Today is my anniversary and Mina, youssef and Mr Bahaa El Gazole did such a great job and my husband and I can’t thank them enough. Absolutely coming back again very soon. Every thing is on point and the recommendations that Mina and Youssef chose for us was amazing. I would recommend this place for sure to everyone.
