More information on Cortigiano
Come early or make a reservation as good food and an equally delicious atmosphere have made this Italian restaurant a favourite among Cairenes. Recently remodeled, the subdued lighting and tasteful furnishings are still in place. The dining area is both warm and inviting, and the service is top-notch. For a little extra intimacy, cozy up in the booths tucked away at the back. The servings here are big, so be forewarned. Choose from a wide selection of salads and soups. The creamy onion soup—a rich broth of onions and cream—is said to be the most popular and after one sip you'll know why. Entrees range from pasta and Italian specialties to seafood and a highly recommended veal cordon bleu, which is stuffed with mushrooms and topped with cheese and tomatoes. The pizzas here are fantastic—thick crusts and loaded with cheese and toppings. The iced cheesecake is fine, but the apple pie is uninspiring.
