OUR STORY
Crafting Unforgettable Italian Experiences Since 2012
The history of Zia Amelia begins with its opening in December 2012 in Downtown El Gouna, crowning a dream of its founders, Riccardo and Patrizia. Since the beginning, Zia Amelia has been characterized by the careful search for refined taste in the culinary proposal that, wisely, combines the flavors of tradition and innovation of Italian cuisine for the most demanding palettes.
From Italy to Your Table
Italian cuisine
A peculiar aspect of Italian cuisine is its simplicity. Despite the essentiality of the preparations, which involve a limited number of ingredients, flavor is still one of the most appreciated aspects. This goodness of Italian cuisine is due to the quality of the ingredients, which at Zia Amelia’s we always select with scrupulous attention, in order to prepare, thanks also and above all to the meticulousness of our chefs, the best dishes under the banner of classic Italian tradition.
Good food always finds those who love it and know how to cook it. This is what we believe in as those who grew up in the shade of the tree of the great cultural tradition of Italian regional cuisine which, together with the quality of the experiences of the members of our family, offers Zia Amelia’s guests an atmosphere of a cozy Italian home.”

We loved our visit to Zia Amelia yesterday! The service was absolutely top-notch — our waiter Alaa was incredibly hospitable, kind, and attentive, which made our experience even more enjoyable.
The food was absolutely delicious from start to finish. The salads were so fresh and full of flavor, and both the seafood pasta and gnocchi were our absolute favorites — perfectly cooked and bursting with taste.
Overall, a fantastic dining experience with amazing food and even better service. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

The place's vibes are really good since our entrance till the end of our dining time. The staff are welcoming and so helpful. Bishoy who was happily serving us is a very nice guy, has a great sense of hospitality and went to the extra mile of adding their homemade chili pepper oil twice on the table along with parmigiana cheese. The salads were fresh and tasty, also their beer was so cold. We have ordered pizza and we were amazed that its quality is super good. The ingredients are all imported, the quatro formaggio is mouthwatering, the diavola is a little bit spicy and the beef diavola is really tasty. The margarita was also a hit. Loved the place and cannot wait to go there again next year for trying more Italian dishes from the menu. Highly recommended.
