I loved the dessert molten cake ( wonderful ) The service was excellent so I'm going to recommend to everyone this place. Deserve a visit !!More

The reason I came here is the fact that they have a yacht you can rent and you can order food from one of their restaurants and have it setup on a table on the yacht. Please note that this is a small yacht and...nothing fancy. It is ok. There are 4 restaurants for you to get food from. The first one by the entrance offered terrible sandwiches. Do not buy sandwiches. You have been warned. The Lebanese restaurant by the first floor was good. We ordered the mix-grill and Lebanese entrees. It was good and my wife liked it. We called over the phone first to reserve the yacht 7-8pm. We arrived on site 6:15 pm and ordered food. Exactly 7:00 pm food was set on a table on the yacht and we sailed. We had some privacy on the lower level since the crew was on the upper level (3 of them). We actually requested the food to be set on the first floor for that reason. We paid around $65 (LE10000) for everything. Pretty good for what we got. Plus tips for all folks who served and crew members (LE 150). Rest room was not good on the yacht. Little soap to wash hands. Rest room by the restaurant was very good and clean. Mosque in the area was convenient for prayers. Overall good experience for what we paid.More

I've had a great yacht dinner at the Nile with my bride with Nile Lily. The Nile cruise was marvelous, the yacht was well prepared and very romantic, the staff was friendly, one of the best experience I've ever had. The yacht was rented with...450 LE per hour and the decorations and flowers can be arranged with the administration when booking, and the food, drinks and deserts can be booked from any restaurant from the Nile Lily... Very recommended for couples and special occasions, also very suitable for families too.More

Nile Lily is always one of my favorite restaurants to dine in special occasions. The place is very cozy and the staff are friendly. The view is marvelous: looking over one of the best places of the river Nile. If you're dining indoors you can...head to any table near the window, or you can dine in a "balcony" type terrace. The terrace is not that big, but it is excellent in the good weather days. Sunset time is an experience worth trying a this restaurant. The food is very good but I do not recommend the drinks that much.More

Yesterday my husband and I had lunch at El Mundo international restaurant at the Nile Lily. The food was exquisite, the service excellent and the view of the Nile with soft background music was a dream. Nile Lily has a Lebanese Restaurant on the ground...floor and a terrace on the top floor. I would definitely recommend enjoying a meal or snack at one of the restaurants.More
