Kanaria Steak House

Kanaria Steak House is a steakhouse in the Dahar district of Hurghada, at the corner of El Mostashfa and Sid Korim Street, on Egypt's Red Sea coast. Dahar is the older, more local part of the city, centred on the main commercial streets and the bazaars, and Kanaria stands out there for its open-all-hours format. The venue is listed as open 24 hours, making it one of the few places in Dahar where a steak or mixed grill can be had at any time of day or night. The menu centres on steak, mixed grill and burgers, cooked on the grill in the Egyptian style. Main courses are priced at about EGP 250 to EGP 600 (roughly $5 to $12), which is mid-range for Dahar and much cheaper than steakhouses in the resort hotels. The dining room is casual, with no dress code, and the atmosphere is that of a local grill: straightforward, busy at mealtimes and quiet in the small hours. Noise levels depend on the street outside. Reservations are not normally taken, and walk-in is the standard way to dine. The average rating is 4.5. The location is convenient for visitors staying in Dahar or those who have come to the district to shop or visit the older markets and want a substantial meal afterwards. Steak orders should specify the preferred doneness, since cooking in many local grills tends to be well done by default. Mixed grills usually arrive with bread, salad, rice and dips and are designed to be shared, which makes them good value for two or three diners. Burgers are a simpler alternative for those not wanting a full steak. Alcohol is not typically served in venues of this kind and should be confirmed on arrival.
