Restaurant Egyptian restaurant

🫤 The staff member told us that he made these last two dishes cause they are out of rice. But I didn't think that the dish would have so little rice and be mainly pasta! I didn't like it and I returned it. The staff member was very friendly and he gave me money back right away. I'm Egyptian and I lov... People often mention good, Egyptian, friendly,

    The staff member told us that he made these last two dishes cause they are out of rice. But I didn't think that the dish would have so little rice and be mainly pasta! I didn't like it and I returned it. The staff member was very friendly and he gave me money back right away. I'm Egyptian and I love koushary and this was so far from what I'm used to. My advise is that they don't serve any dish unless they make sure it's all balanced and wait until they make a new batch. Best of luck for them tho.

    Delicious vegetarian spot! Although they only offer one dish (in a few slightly different variations), it was very good. The staff is super friendly, too. Definitely worth a visit!

    if it's a restaurant focused on just one dish, then chances are that it has to be good. this was clearly the case for. kuschari könig. the fact that it's vegan seals the deal for me. i had a small order of kuschari and a samosa. all vegan and very tasty. it comes in 3 sizes, small, medium and large. the small order was already quite hefty. but it's good you wind up craving for more. the prices are also very good for the quality and quantity. i came in for late lunch and i was the only. one dining in. service was of course quite fast. there was a few more that came. in while i was dining, but almost all for takeout. staff was very nice and spoke english, german, and arabic, and perhaps even more, but this was just when i was dining there. highly recommended.

    Nice experience but unfortunately the macaroni used when I visited yesterday was large and doesn’t represent authentic koshari. No vinegar sauce available but overall a pleasant experience.

    Very tasty! Also even a small portion is hard to eat very hungry, as it is satisfying. Service also great! Like this place 😍

    Authentic food from Cairo/Egypt. Very delicious and healthy. Staff is friendly and helpful. If you're around.. come and eat here. It's worth every cent.

    Delicious! Very close to what you can get in Cairo, enjoyed every bit of it!

    The Menü option comes with Koshari and Egyptian salad, also with a chance to get Egyptian dessert "mehalabeya" for a couple euros more. Surprisingly there wasn't any Egyptian person working there, but the food was fine. It could be better (needs a bit more vinegar and garlic, and it was a bit cold), but it is authentic Koshari.

    One star is too good for this place. They are unfriendly and their employees are disrespectful. We ordered online and even though the driver arrived and called us, our order was not with him. when we called they denied that we even ordered food from them even though we have proof. it was a waste of time and money.

    I really loved the food, it tastes 100% authentic Egyptian Kuschari. The quality of the food is premium, the people are so nice. I recommend eating there.

    Great Koshari.. You should try it

  • 2/5 Dustin H. 3 years ago on Google
    As the reviews have been very good we tried and were quite disappointed. The only dish they offer is a very simple one with pasta, lentils, chickpeas, rice, a simple tomato sauce, parsley and onions. It doesn't taste bad but really doesn't have anything special.
