Andrea
 

Description

Friendly service and sumptuous chicken have been key to this family-oriented restaurant's success over the years. The winning formula has spawned a host of copycats with the same name, but the original remains the best. Located near the Pyramids, this large restaurant features a spacious air-conditioned dining room with a fireplace for winter and a much-lauded garden terrace for summer. Soft lighting, pleasant views and the sizzle of the outdoor grill create a relaxed ambience. Chicken roasted to perfection is the house speciality. Kebabs, kofte and quails are equally well prepared on patio grills. Portions are generous and can be supplemented with vine leaves, salads or dips; the latter served with bread baked on-site in a traditional clay oven. Local beer and wine are served, but desserts are not. Tourist groups swarm the garden terrace in the afternoons—mosquitoes on summer evenings.

Best Grilled Chicken
By R.A., 11/15/06
Andrea is there even before my time. They have several branches. I prefer the one at Maadi Area. I also love the one at Hurghada. Their grilled chicken is the best in Cairo. They bake their own bread and they have a good varity of egyptian oriantal dishes.

Adrea is pretty damn good
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/16/04
The food is great, make sure to order alot of mezzas, their tahina, arabic sausages and chicken livers are brilliant, especially with the freshly baked bread. And then there's always the grilled chicken as a main course. The variety is not spectacular, but what little the people at andrea do , they do very well

I can't wait to go back there!
By Keely C, 11/30/09
The experience at Andrea was better than I expected it to be. THE OVERALL ATMOSPHERE MADE ME FEEL LIKE I WAS IN lAURENCE OF ARABIA! I WOULD DEFINITELY RECCOMMEND IT TO OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE STAYING IN CAIRO. ANDREA WAS AFFORDABLE, THE FOOD WAS WELL DONE AND PERFECTLY PREPARED, AND FOR THE SHOW THAT YOU GET BETWEEN DINNER AND YOUR DESSERT, IT WAS WELL WORTH THE TIME AND MONEY!

My parents ate there before I was born...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 8/31/07
...they took me to eat there as a child, and over 20 years later when I went back to Cairo for a visit, it was still as gorgeously tasty as my childhood memories. Brilliant, simple, classic Egyptian food, in a clean (for Cairo) yet rustic atmosphere . Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Best chicken ever
By Karim, 9/26/06
Andrea has the best charcoal grilled chicken on this planet. If you are in Cairo, make sure you stop by for their perfectly seasoned, sublimely cooked chicken. It is outstanding - they cover it in fresh oregano and Egyptian spices then let it grill slowly on a spit over flaming coals. It is so moist and juicy and the outside is perfectly crisp, it makes me want to cry!! Also, they bake some of the best flatbread in Egypt in their huge outdoor brick oven, and their mezza (appetizers) are fantastic - make sure you try the kofta (meatballs) as well as tahina, lamb-stuffed grape leaves, baba-ghanoush, kebda (fried chicken livers - yummy), yogurt dip, as well as their tomato and Egyptian white cheese dip. They have many locations but my favorite is the one in Maryuttia. I recommend you sit outdoors so you can smell the chicken grilling, but as in anywhere in Egypt if you are outside, make sure that you wear mosquito repellent.
