Khufu's Restaurant
-----------------
Who they are
An Egyptian fine-dining destination located on the Giza Plateau, Khufu’s Restaurant by Pier 88 offers a contemporary culinary experience set against the Great Pyramid of Khufu — one of the most iconic backdrops in the world.
Who They Are
Khufu’s is the world’s first restaurant dedicated to presenting Egyptian cuisine in a true fine-dining format. Operated by Pier 88, the concept brings together heritage, craftsmanship, and modern hospitality to reflect Egypt’s culinary identity with clarity and respect.
What They Do
Khufu’s reinterprets traditional Egyptian dishes using refined techniques and thoughtful presentation. Familiar flavours are preserved, while execution and detail elevate the experience into a modern, polished form of dining.
Culinary Direction
The kitchen is led by Chef Mostafa Seif, winner of Top Chef Middle East 2018. His approach balances deep respect for Egyptian flavours with contemporary culinary expression, shaping a menu that feels authentic, precise, and forward-looking.
The Setting
Positioned directly on the Giza Plateau, Khufu’s offers a rare panoramic view of the pyramids. The location is integral to the experience, creating a natural connection between cuisine, culture, and history.
The Experience
From breakfast to lunch, Khufu’s delivers a calm, refined atmosphere defined by intentional service and understated elegance. The focus is on allowing guests to engage with the food and the setting without distraction.
Why It Stands Out
- Operated by Pier 88
- The first Egyptian fine-dining concept of its kind
- Led by an award-winning Egyptian chef
- Unmatched pyramid-side location
- A modern expression of Egyptian culinary heritage
Summary
Khufu’s offers a considered dining experience where Egyptian cuisine is presented with refinement, clarity, and cultural depth — shaped by place, guided by craftsmanship, and grounded in legacy.
