Are there good places to try authentic Egyptian food in Sharm El Sheikh?

Absolutely. The Old Market area has several spots that locals love, like El Masrien, which serves up kushari, falafel, and other classics without the tourist prices. Don’t miss out on trying some fresh falafel wraps and homemade dips.

Is it safe to eat street food in Sharm El Sheikh?

I’d say yes, but pick your spots carefully. Stick to busy places where locals are eating, and watch how the food is prepared. The falafel and freshly squeezed juices in the Old Market are usually spot on and safe.

What’s the best area to find seafood restaurants in Sharm El Sheikh?

Ras Um Sid and Naama Bay have some great little seafood joints. Fares Seafood in Ras Um Sid is a favorite of mine – the fish is fresh and grilled simply, letting the flavor shine through.

Do restaurants stay open late in Sharm El Sheikh?

Yes, especially in the cooler months and in areas like Naama Bay or Soho Square. People often eat late after sunset, so don’t worry if you get hungry after a day out diving or snorkeling.

Are there vegetarian-friendly restaurants around Sharm El Sheikh?

You’ll find plenty of vegetarian options, especially in places serving Egyptian mezze like hummus, baba ganoush, and stuffed vine leaves. Just check with the waiters if dishes are vegetarian, as some use meat-based broth.

Can I find international cuisine easily in Sharm El Sheikh?

Yes, the tourist areas have plenty of international choices – Italian, Indian, Lebanese – but you’ll find the best versions outside big resorts, often run by families who’ve lived here a long time.
