Care for a sprinkle of Mexican spice? Blending familiar Mexican flavors with a more casual, fusion-style approach, New Cairo’s Guaco is playing by its own rules. Guaco may not be the most authentic spot in town, but what it lacks in tradition, it makes up for in bold flavors and generous portions. Guaco’s menu covers all the bases, making it an ideal spot for big groups with different appetites.

You can’t go wrong with the chicken burrito. It’s loaded with grilled chicken, rice, and all the usual goodies. The grilled chicken itself is tender and flavorful, and the overall bite hits all the right notes — and is quite filling. The beef tacos unfortunately paled in comparison. The ground beef was a tad underseasoned, and while the toppings helped bring it together, it didn’t stick the landing quite like its chicken counterpart. Yet, it’s still a good option if you're craving some mild tacos.

Versatility is Guaco’s strength. If you're with someone who isn't into Mexican food, the menu has plenty of other options to fall back on, including burgers, pizzas, pastas, and main courses. It’s the kind of place where you don’t have to think hard about what you’re ordering. That said, the salad section is limited — so if you're after something green and fresh, your options are slim.

Don’t forget the drinks. There’s something for everyone — coffee, shakes, and cocktails. The peach iced tea is a great option and has just the right amount of sweetness. We’d also recommend giving the pink loaded cocktail — strawberry, watermelon, and mint — a try if you’re craving something fresh and refreshing.

WHERE TO ORDER- You can order from Talabat or Instashop. You can also find Guaco at New Cairo’s Trivium Square Mall.
