Sequoia: Remembering a former Nile-side favourite

Illustrative Nile-side image; Sequoia is closed and this is not a photograph of the former restaurant.

53 Abou El Feda Street, Zamalek (former location) · Formerly Egyptian, Lebanese and Mediterranean

Sequoia was once one of Zamalek’s best-known Nile-side restaurants, remembered for its open-air terrace, river views and social atmosphere. It is included here as part of Cairo’s recent dining history—not as a recommendation for a current visit. Local reporting records that it closed in late 2018.

What to try

There is no current menu: the restaurant is closed.

Good to know

Do not plan a visit. For a current Nile-view evening, consider Crimson or Pier 88 instead.
