Craving Seafood by the Sea? The North Coast’s Got You
Sun’s out, sea’s sparkling, and your cravings? Fully aquatic. Whether you’re a calamari enthusiast, a lobster devotee, or just want to sit pretty by the water with a cold drink and a plate of something fresh, the North Coast is delivering.
Here’s your no-fluff, all-flavor guide to the top seafood spots of 2025. All of them are, of course, right by the sea.
Galambo – Hacienda White
Mediterranean-style interiors meet classic Egyptian seafood in this laid-back yet polished spot. Expect familiar favorites done right: calamari tagine, fried barbouni and basarya, and that rich, caramelized sayadieh rice. But Galambo doesn’t stop there — molokhia with shrimp is on the menu, and somehow it works.
Sachí – Almaza Bay & Marassi
Sachí made it onto MENA’s 50 Best Restaurants list in 2025, and it earns the title with dishes like grilled seabass in a miso beurre blanc and truffle ravioli that tastes as expensive as it sounds. Even the non-seafood dishes, like the garlic-soy butterflied chicken, are hard to resist.
Scalini Egypt – Hacienda White
This Italian import from London knows how to treat seafood right. Their linguine alla pescatore is stacked with shellfish, and the spaghetti all’astice turns pasta and lobster into a love story. And yes, there’s seafood pizza — because obviously.
The Smokery – Marassi
The Smokery serves glazed salmon that’s rich and silky, and marinated mussels that make the case for starters being the main event. As for the main dishes, we will just say their seafood pizza is to die for. Oh — and yes, there’s sushi. Come hungry, leave impressed.
Pier 88 – Almaza Bay
Pier 88 brings a sleek Mediterranean-Italian experience to Almaza, with a menu that hits all the right notes. The seafood is top tier across the board, and if you’re into lobster, this spot is definitely calling your name.
That’s your hit list for seafood on the North Coast in 2025. Whether you’re craving something classic, a fusion dish, or simply pasta with a side of sea air, these spots have the range.
Book ahead, show up hungry, and maybe leave the tight jeans at home.
