About Radio Cairo Restaurant

Radio Cairo delivers an energetic, spice-heavy collision of African, Sri Lankan, and Cajun flavors under one eclectic Mosman roof. The dining room buzzes with conversation, vintage 1970s film reels flickering silently on the walls, and tables packed with share plates. Diners point to glazed pork ribs, charred South African lamb sosaties, and flatbread stuffed with caramelized onion and cheddar as table essentials. Extensive gluten-free labeling gives celiac guests an easy pass to bold marinades without second-guessing. Wind things down with coconut sambal and a plate of fish and clam molee.

  • Global Spice Menu: Cross-continental share plates spanning South African skewers, Sri Lankan molee, and Cajun fish.
  • Vintage Film Projections: Silent 1970s film projections and world music create an eccentric, lively atmosphere.
  • Celiac-Safe Dining: Extensive gluten-free accommodations with dedicated attention to celiac dietary safety.

    We had dinner for 5 on a Sunday night when Radio Cairo allows BYO wine for a $9 charge pp. This is an added bonus to excellent food at a good value price.
