The Story Behind
Our Italian Journey
Where the Dream Began
Zia Amelia opened its doors in 2012 in El Gouna, founded by Patrizia and Riccardo, who dreamed of bringing the true taste of Italy to Egypt.
What began as a small family restaurant soon became one of El Gouna’s most loved dining spots and today, Zia Amelia proudly welcomes guests in El Gouna and New Cairo.
Since 2012
A Family Legacy of Excellence
Still family-run, Zia Amelia continues to thrive under our family:
- Terry & Massimo lead the El Gouna branch, preserving its rustic Mediterranean charm.
- Barbara, Denise & Diana bring modern elegance to New Cairo.
Both branches operate under the leadership of Patrizia and Riccardo, founders of Zia Amelia.
