Find out what Mediterranean restaurants to try in Alexandria. The Pearl of the Mediterranean has an ambiance more in keeping with its neighbors to the north than with those in the Middle East. Site of Pharos lighthouse, one of the Wonders of the World, and of Anthony and Cleopatra’s tempestuous romance, the city was founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BCE. Today, Alexandria offers fascinating insights into its proud Greek past, as well as interesting mosques, the casino strip of the Corniche, some lovely gardens and both modern and traditional hotels. (Editor's note: Our list was compiled before political unrest prompted many countries to issue travel warnings for Egypt. If you're currently planning a trip to Egypt, please consider the risks and monitor your government's travel alerts.)

Fish Market was amazing. They start by brining you potatoes, pickles, salad, hummus, sesame paste and garlic paste. All of them were fresh and tasty. As entrees we had fish fillet with calamari and rice. Excellent price for fresh seafood! Great views of the Mediterranean as well.

Superb location and view with great sea food ala Alex style (which is different from Port Said and Damitta style..)as a welcome to our big group the chef made a show of how he prepares and serves certain dishes.. which was very entertaining tooAppitizers and main dishes were all what you can dream of in a Sea Food restaurant.. but as all sea food restaurants in Egypt desert is a fiasco.. seems like they don't know what to serve for a desert after great sea food (or may be its me and there shouldnt be any !!) but still enjoyed a lot

This is one of the few authentic restaurants that serves local cuisine in a modern way. Not that fancy or opulent, still it suits what it offers. The place serves Middle Eastern platters of grilled beef/ lamb/ chicken, tajins, plus rice and pasta plates. The quality and taste of food is superb. You can always ask for certain kinds of salads and appetisers that are served per individual. On the other hand, they serve seafood and fish at the upper floor. There are various kinds of fishes and seafood to pick from; either grilled or fried. This restaurant is a must-go for all locals and visitors.

I am writing this review after my third visit to Zepher (Zephyr). This place is hands down the best seafood restaurant I have visited in Egypt. Service is great, I like the location (it's a little ways away from downtown) and the food... Just try it. Those fish tanks at the entrance need cleaning though...Don't confuse this restaurant with the Greek place called Zephyrion!

Booked a table of 5 for dinner last week & in spite of the fact the place was packed we were escorted immediately to the table by the friendly waiter.Ordered grilled & fried calamari which were very tasty, grilled octopus which was very good too as well as their classic appetizers the Greek Tarama which was delicious along with Tahina , eggplant salad & Greek salad which were all very fresh & tasty.For main we chose the biggest tiger prawns I have seen for the last couple of years ( assisted by the place's manager & very good friend Ilias ) followed by a very fresh sea bass. Both were delicious & fully appreciated by the whole party.Service was good taking in consideration the place was buzzing ( National Holiday ) while the view was breathtaking!Cannot comment on the prices since my guests took care of the bill behind my back but in general prices are in line with similar standard restaurants while the quality is superior to most of them.A must when you are in Alex & feel like having some serious sea food & fish meal overlooking the sea!

Great restaurant off the water. This restaurant is buffet style meaning you select the seafood you want and tell them how you want it cooked. We did not know this and waited for a while for a menu. They do have a menu available if you ask. Prices are great and seafood is fresh. We had the jumbo prawns, fried red fish and calamari!
