About this spot
Gargouch serves up authentic Egyptian mezze where you must order dishes individually rather than sharing from large platters, a custom that keeps the table lively and the portions manageable. The kitchen specializes in slow-cooked lamb kofta and crispy falafel that define the Zamalek neighborhood's casual dining scene.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order your favorite appetizers first since tables often run out of space for main courses later in the evening.
- Expect to pay per dish rather than ordering a set menu, so plan your budget around individual plates.
- Ask for extra pickled vegetables to accompany your meat dishes as they are not always included.
