One of the best Italian places Ive been to outside Italy. The people are super friendly. The pizza dough is super delicious and the rest of the pizza as well. The pasta there is awesome. The location is really nice and very cosy but also very lively.
A must go in Gouna! Authentic italian restaurant with a wide variety on their menu. The service was very quick and very attentive. We tried the Bufalina (Buffalo mozzarella pizza) and Diavola (spicy salami pizza) and we savoured every bit. Hands down one of the best pizza places in Egypt. We also tried the penne red sauce which did not meet our expectations, was too bland. Overall, this is a greatly recommended place and we would definitely go back again.
Very nice restaurant at Down Town El Gouna Hurghada, very nice seating area and very tasty food, i took veal with mushrooms in brown sauce and the side was grilled vegetables and cubes of baked potatoes.It is a bit expensive but it is an elegant restaurant and very tasty food.
I tried Italian food in at least 10 restaurants in Egypt and in Rome Airport. I. Hate. Italian. Food.Until I had a taste of Zia Amelia...The food was the surprise of my year, it turns out: Italian food is super delicious! Only when you find a place than can cook it properly.The owner stops by all tables to make sure that everything is good and no one is dissatisfied, the pizza is out of this world, the Gnocchi is really good. I dont think anything was bad.But the Lasagna was just something else.... It was pure bliss... You HAVE to try it!
(score 4.5) Tasty food, attentive and fast staff, there is a VAT added to the bill that we didnt expect, which makes the food a bit pricey (it might be written on the menu but we didnt notice it)
It was busy but the food was amazing and the owner was walking around asking if everything was okay. Had the seafood linguine and the portions were great. Nice, cozy atmosphere. Recommended if you want Italian food in Gouna.
I was craving Egyptian food for a while and when Id gotten my fill, decided to give Italian a shot. I got the beef mustard plate. The meat was extremely tender and cooked just right. The sauce was the perfect texture, spices and depicted a great representation of mustard blend.The calzone and pizza dough were made perfectly wood fire toasted.I hadnt genuinely enjoyed Italian like this in quite some time. Definitely recommend and would make a staple!
Loved, loved this place. Very cozy, staff are super friendly and kind. Had more than one instance where the staff were up to the task right away and always made sure we were taken care of. Food didnt take long at all and was hot and delicious.I tried the homemade pasta with pork, mushroom and white sauce.. it was absolutely delicious; so were the complimentary garlic bread. Would definitely recommend and go there again.
Excellent dinner at Zia Amelia. The pasta with Gorgonzola and the sausages were amazing. Great wine as well. The owner is very kind and welcoming.
Very delicious food, great and polite service and a nice ambiance!The prices are a bit high and dont include VAT
Friendly staff, very cozy, kind owner and amazing food. Not only the Italian dishes are amazing but the hole menu is on point.
The place is very nice with good vibes..A very nice place for good quality dinner..W tried steak with mushrooms and fried steak with cheese and cold cuts it was amazing and all the flavors were balanced and tasty we really enjoyed the food there..The mushroom soup also was very nice..Friendly staff wearing masks and sanitizing tables..Prices are good..Will revisit..
Very nice place ..comfortable chairs . Chic decoration . Service is excellent..food is delicious but exaggerated prices
Great tasty real Italian food excellent serviceOwner Amelia making sure everything is good and all guests is happy by asking every single customer....ahhhh tasty tasty tasty
I feel stuffed, who thought that you can eat authentic, clean and large portions italian food in Egypt? Zia Amelia the way to go
Absolutely amazing pasta and pizza. Flavors on point. Atmosphere is cosy and wonderful.
Amazing place and atmosphere just you will not enjoy the cost vs value
I haven’t even gotten my food, and I am rating this restaurant five stars just off their service alone. I walked up after a long day and just wanted something to eat. I was IMMEDIATELY greeted with so much respect and great service. The host helped me to decide what to eat, and I chose to wait inside because of the great energy. I’m not a fan of Gouna, but this restaurant deserves a try if you’re up this way. Great service, and I’m sure they put the same amount of love in their food. I’ll keep you updated. =)
Excellent quality and taste I tried rigatoni white sauce with chicken and mushroom its was peace from haven and tried sea food pasta with pink sauce its very delicious and the staff are very polite and very friendly
The food was amazing , taste delicious , the atmosphere of the restaurant was fabulous and cozy , friendly and cheerful owner and staff , it was a very nice experience .
Nice Italian restaurant with good vibes. The service was amazing and their food was good.Their home made pasta with shrimps was amazing, but their seafood pizza wasnt so good. It barely had any shrimps on it and was full of calamaris.
Great Italian food from the heart of Napoli, Italy. The service is also real good with polite and social host.
Loved it.. best italian food
Very nice place, great pizza, lasagna and an awesome tiramisu.
Super disappointed! After reading plenty of positive reviews about the restaurant, we decided to give it a try.At first, the atmosphere and ambience are really nice and relaxing.We ordered the seafood pasta and the beef mushroom. To our surprise, the food was very poor in terms of taste and quality! The beef was rubbery and tasteless! Same for the seafood pasta, it had a really bad after taste. However, we complained to our waiter and he was very understanding, as he removed the items from our bill.We ended up having a tiramisu and an apple tarte instead.Overall, I don’t think I will be visiting the place again.
Very nice place. Great Food, Great Service
Lovely place with high quality food. Loved it 🥰
Very good place ,food is delicious, stuff are friendly and every thing was wonderful
The seafood pasta was horrible. They are using the worst seafood quality and they cut them in small pieces so you don’t even know what you’re eating🤮the calamar salad had all potatoes, carrots and maybe one piece of calamari that was chewy and not tasty at all. To top it all, it’s very expensive. I don’t recommend it at all!
This is a great Italian place. Wonderful food and REAL pork products; ham, Italian sausage, bacon. We got the calzone, the margarita pizza, the spaghetti alla carbonara and the mixed salad. All were delicious. Before the meal, they bring fresh rolls and bruschetta for the table. Magdy was our server. He was attentive, helpful, and always available to us. It is a favorite place for us in El Gouna.
Great atmosphere, great food, but today for delivery my salmon was undercooked :(
For that prices I expect better taste.Waiters very friendly.
Great food, desert and service.
Consistently perfect.The food and ambiance tops ✨
I was extremely excited to visit your restaurant at first. However, once I laid foot into the place the waiter was very impolite and asking if we had a reservation placed (knowing there were too many empty tables that stayed empty even after we left and I could guarantee that as we sat somewhere very close). I received a very rude attitude that made me so angry I didn’t want to book your place any other day. One terrible way to deal with guests. And even a more provocative reply.
The food ans the service are perfect , only a bit pricy
Very nice atmosphere yet prices are overated
The experience was amazing, from the atmosphere, the excellent service, and of course, the food! We had a delicious marinara pizza with veggies that was cooked to perfection and accompanied by a nice spicy pepper in oil sauce.I just wish I could give it 6* out of 5 ☺️
Just cant go to Gouna without having dinner there!In my humble opinion one of the best authentic Italian restaurants in Egypt!Always check the daily specials menu and make sure u try something from thereKids luv it as well and u can always get their favorite dish half portionStuff are very friendly and attentive and pricing is reasonable
When you order a quattro formaggi and it tastes like margherita, you know this isn’t a good pizza place.
The beef fillet was great and the pasta with tomato sauce was really nice.
Lasagna was a little saltySpinach and ricotta ravioli was greatShrimp ravioli wasnt good at allService was great and drinks too
Was one of the worst experiences Ive had!!!! Food was below par, and the service was all over the place. My friends steak was overcooked then brought with the wrong sauce. I ordered a chicken parmigiana and it was dry tasteless. I wouldnt expect to be served this kind of food in a low end open buffet let alone a nice restaurant. Wouldnt recommend it.
Great pizza, rich sauce and high quality cheese with balanced crust. Eggplant starter (can’t recall name) was great. Still undeniably more expensive than your average pizza lunch, but worth it.
Great spaghetti, the best in El Gouna, but 45 le ($3.00) for a small, 5 egp, can of pepsi !!?? Come on now 😑
Very nice place with amazing pizza, but you need to inform the waiter explicitly about small stuff you need. They might lack common sense a bit
The best italian restaurant ever I experienced. Looks like you are in Italy.Nice owner. Very polite people and test food.I recomend you to try it.Thanks ManagementThanks HassanThanks Magdy
Supper. Menu impressive, but food only ok and expensive. Place looks lovely. Good service. Very popular, but we shant be returning
Perfect Italian spot in El Gouna, fresh food, great staff and unique Italian vibes. I tried there the salmon pasta and it was really yummy, perhaps the best salmon pasta Ive ever tasted.
Nice staff, extremely overrated food.. big disappointment
Not many veggy options aside from pizza
The best pasta and pizza ever
It has always been known that Zia Amelia offers the best italian food in Gouna .. I have been here 3 times and this time was not one of the best times . It has been better . The service was late .. the food was the same quality we are used to .. I hope it returns to its standards the next time I visit
We turned up without a reservation, were found a spot by the Italian owner, outside on the terrace, by the heaters.The food was very good - we opted for pasta and pizza, all fresh and tasty - after complimentary bruscettas, and parmigiana aubergines (delicious!)The waitress was very attentive and very kind, following up on whether our dishes arrived as we finished starters.Not the cheapest but a very good place, which I definitely recommend
Awesome place, excellent service and, first of all, superb Italian food!
It was a great experience, the setting is lovely, I wish I went there without the kids to be able to enjoy the atmosphere more.Im not an expert in Italian cuisine but I can tell that this was a good quality food, we tried a vegetable pizza and a pasta with chicken and mushroom, both were unique and tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant.
Excellent Italian restaurant with a variety of amazing food and easily one of the best restaurants in El Gouna. Prices are great considering the quality of the food. Its also good that Italian owners are usually there interacting with customers. Make this a definite stop for you!
One of the best things that exist in Gouna
Excellent quality. Good service. Recommend to book in advance during high seasons. Love the pizza ❤️
I never considered Italian food until one of my friends recommends this amazing restaurant, I tried the Octopus salad and the Languinie Sea food pasta.Amelias owner was so nice and stayed to help us choose from the menu, And the staff is friendly with a wide variety of options.My friends tried from her recommendations:Lasangia, pizza 🍕, and many more plates that I cant recall its names overall I loved the experience and looking forward to try it again.
We werent impressed with this restaurant that came recommend to us, especially for the prices, we expected a higher standard. The pizza wasnt crisp in the middle and the lasagna dinner was burnt all around the edges and extremely dry. Obviously it was pre-made, frozen and re-baked, something you wouldnt expect from an Italian restaurant.Staff was attentive and that is really all that we felt the experience had going for it.
I loved the steak there ))
Absolutely loved it. Expensive but well worth it.
Worst food you can possibly have
Best pizza in El Gouna! Creme broulee and the chocolate fondant are quite nice too. Please visit!
Exquisite Italian place. Food is super tasty and delicious 😋 and service is extremely fast... definitely a must go for Italian cuisine
Beautiful resturant and very good food, had the scamorza cheese, which wad rich in taste.The bufalina pizza was amazing, and almost creamy tomato sauce, and a perfect crust. Very good panna cotta as well.Comes at a very acceptable price, considering the quality of the food.Well worth a visit.
I visit this restaurant frequently, the reasons to repeat is the wide range of food and its variety, all products are of very good quality, my favorite is the chicken parmesan. The treatment of the service is very good and friendly. Once a week the place is set with live music, it makes for a very pleasant time
Totally astonished by this restaurant.From the moment my family and I stepped in, we were welcomed by the polite n professional staff. The decor, ambience and tables setting are all awesome n well designed. Clean restaurant.The food is high end italian cuisine , not only in gouna , but compared to cairo ones too.The staff is extremely polite and attentive .my nb. 1 restaurant in gouna.
I was told that this place would have the best food i tasted in my life, so i had very high expectations going there. The food was indeed good but not as i expected, pasta was verry well cooked and tasty! What surprised me the most was the scallope, it was not that good, we took the one with Jambon, and it had a very wierd/bad taste!
Authentic and delicious food. Very kind and warm service
Great food, location, and staff
The food is good, but the service is terrible. A bunch of waiters just idiotically standing around not being able to help the guests, or helping them in the wrong order. Generally rude and unprofessional. Also, if you work in an Italian restaurant you really should know what a bruschetta is and should be able to answer questions about the food intelligently.
