For a seafood restaurant - I advise you to go to the city, the hotel has its own seafood restaurant, but the prices there, to put it mildly, bite. You can get there by hotel shuttle, you just need to sign up for it at the reception in advance.
In connection: the most profitable option is to purchase a Travelsim card, the prices are normal, and it will come in handy later in any country.

Well, in vain, I recommend changing at least a little to local pounds - it’s cheaper in a restaurant, and by taxi, and in shops, etc.

Regarding the fact that the schedule at the shuttle is inconvenient, this is how to say we went there on it and returned back after the restaurant. I recommend taking a bottle of wine with you to the restaurant - they don’t offer alcohol, but you can bring your own, for white seafood - that’s it!

In dollars, about 6 to Naama and 8 to the Old City and Mercato, in pounds it’s cheaper, change at least 30-40 dollars: for fruits, dachshunds and supermarkets .... in Restaurants, prices are also in pounds, the exchange rate in the bank is 5.96, and if you pay dollars are counted at 5 ... so see which is more profitable

I wrote about the cost of travel in my review here: http://www.turpravda.ua/eg/sharm_el_sheyh/Continental_Garden_Reef_Resort-h17141-r44299.html
Hotel busik $ 6 per person, a taxi at the entrance from 10 to Naama and 15 to Old Market (as agreed) - this is for the car. And a little further to catch 5 and 10, respectively.
But you still need to go back.

Margusha7474, as I already wrote to you, a very good fish restaurant with reasonable prices - Fares: there are 2 of them, one in the Old Town, the other in Mercato. Prices are the same here and there .... The average bill without alcohol and lobsters for two is about $ 30, but it depends on what and how much to order ...

No, what are you))) There are no shops, stalls, people and animals along the road from Gardena. Only picturesque vegetation) I especially liked the areas with planted cacti. Beauty!
Regarding money: bucks are not accepted everywhere. For example, in fixed price stores (Kapfur - in Naama, Metro in front of Oldmarket) - only pounds.

Karina-Mango, what does a check without lobsters mean? Well, if you can’t eat them in Egypt, then where then (I am silent about the USA and other "exotics", because getting there is more difficult and more expensive than in Egypt) ?! We usually in Egypt always try to go (and more than once) to a fish restaurant and, first of all, for the sake of a lobster. A very normal price when (approximately) a large lobster, 12 huge shrimp, fish (dorado type) + rice automatically enters there, some other snacks or additions - this is $ 80-100 (I don’t know about you, but in our city a similar menu with high-quality seafood will cost an order of magnitude more expensive). I definitely recommend going to this place!

I eat almost every day in Fares (when I am in Sharm), I have never eaten lobsters =))))))))
"Old Town and Mercato" old town-Old Market - charme area. Il Mercato - charm area (not far from Old Market). Taxisut and say "Il mercato" or "OldMarket" - Fares.
from the Old Market to Ilmercato (and vice versa) you can walk, or taxi 5-10 pounds. not more.
To OldMarket (as well as to IlMercato) approximately 30-40 pounds. for the car. first negotiate with the taxi driver for the price, if he doesn’t like it, leave him, he will catch up. then, when you arrive at your destination, go out and give money through the window. not earlier.

Isn't it scary in the evening at the Old Market? or just like during the day? Is it true that you need to book a table in Fares in advance? Yes, off topic of course, but still: is it cool in the evening in mid-September?

It's not scary in Old Market. there are performances near the waterfall. hot in september at night.
You don't need to book a table in fares. in OldMarket it is small, if there are no places, you can go to IlMercato. there is a big restaurant.

Well, if you don't know the city, it's better to take a taxi. just go to the Sharm Seti hotel. (it is right opposite the first entrance to the Old Market through the park to go to it) and there is already a taxi to catch. only 5-10 pounds. not more
