I recently had the pleasure of dining at Koshary Corner, and I must say that it was a truly exceptional experience. From the moment I stepped foot into the restaurant, I was greeted with warm smiles and a welcoming ambiance that set the tone for the entire evening.
First and foremost, the food at Koshary Corner was absolutely outstanding. As a fan of Egyptian cuisine, I was thrilled to find a restaurant that specializes in koshary, one of my favorite dishes. The flavors were authentic, and every bite transported me back to the streets of Cairo. The koshary itself was a delightful blend of perfectly cooked rice, lentils, pasta, and the most flavorful tomato sauce I have ever tasted. The addition of crispy onions and a tangy vinegar dressing added the perfect finishing touches. Each ingredient was fresh and of the highest quality, and it was evident that a lot of care and attention went into every dish.

From the beautiful presentation of each dish to the thoughtful touches like complimentary mint tea at the end of the meal, it was clear that the restaurant takes great pride in providing a memorable dining experience. The prices were also reasonable, considering the high quality of the food and the level of service provided.
Overall, my experience at Koshary Corner exceeded all expectations. It is a hidden gem that deserves recognition for its exceptional food, warm hospitality, and attention to detail.

Read moreWe visited Koshary Corner inside R. House, a vibrant food hall with a variety of vendors. I ordered the Egyptian Breakfast Feast ($16.85), which came with two whole falafels (cut in half), pita bread, a side salad, french fries, and eight different sauces.
The falafel was definitely the highlight—crispy, well-seasoned, and especially tasty with the garlic sauce and tabouli. The tabouli was fresh and flavorful, easily the best of the sauces. The garlic sauce had an unusual appearance, while the hummus lacked the expected creaminess.
Other components were less impressive. The pita bread was dry and a bit stale. The french fries were fine flavor-wise, but they were supposed to be roasted potatoes (see attached website photo). I was confused why french fries would be on a “breakfast” dish, but now it made sense. The side salad had a flavor that didn’t sit well with me personally, though that could be subjective.
The variety of 8 sauces added a fun element, even if most were average. Food was ready in about 10 minutes, ordered via kiosk, and you get a text when it’s done. There wasn’t much interaction with the staff, as everything is handled pretty efficiently through the kiosk system.
I’ve included photos of the menu, which also shows weekly deals and a kids menu—a nice touch for families or budget-friendly visits.
While I might not order this specific platter again, the falafel and tabouli were strong enough to make me want to try another dish. Koshary Corner is conveniently located inside R. House, which offers plenty of seating and a free cold water station—a small but...
Read moreThis lady is overwhelmed single handedly serving up to customers. Also not the best hygienic wise. She definitely needs help with orders to make them right. Sorry not able to respond to you directly from page hence updating my prior comment. As a positive feedback please accept the following: In order to greet, receive, process and complete orders during peak hours, you absolutely need two people; I understand small businesses look for avenues to cut costs but this is no way to run an operation when the turnaround between placing and receiving orders is about 20 mins in a fast food joint. Also, keep your sauce bottles topped. You wouldn't want to try to squeeze the last drop thumping on your counter-top with sauce all over the surface where food is prepped and the other residual bit on bread carrying over stuff from what's on counter-top even though you may claim your food prepping surface is clean. This cross contamination is serious for people with food allergies. I am definitely not coming back cos I felt queasy right after I had a meal there not too long back. The place started off well but with time the service is not the best.
Ma'am I don't need you to buy me another food as a gift. There wont be a next time!! I wish I had a camera to click the photos that evening and how toiled the lady was thumping the empty sauce bottles on the countertop to get the last bit out and making a mess around. Also wishful thinking on your part having a platform to review customers. You see, customers are getting a service rendered for a price, not the...
