Kosharie

Egyptian food is generally rare. So I was excited to go to this place. Egyptian Kosharie was what I was after. It is a vagetarian dish with rice, noodles, pasta sauce and topped with fried onion. It was good. There was no choice to add meat to this dish. Lamb, chicken and beef kabob was my other item. Meat could have been more tender. But rice was very flavorful. The pita bread on the side was also flavorful. It didn't reheat well though. The place is small with may be 4 tables. Mostly I saw people taking out food.

Ordered takeout via their website. The process was very easy and I love when restaurants have the ability to schedule a pickup time. The Kosharie (w/ extra sauce) was great, the chicken shawarma plate was ok (pita and sides were good, chicken was a little tough). The portions are large, and the kosharie reheated very well. The owner was very nice when we went to pick up our food, talking to my chatty toddler and giving him cookies (after checking with me to make sure it was ok). Will certainly come back again!

Kosharie is one of my favorite traditional Egyptian foods. I'm so grateful to have found it in the US. I try to get carryout at this restaurant every time I'm in Madison. Delicious!

Great little spot close by to campus. Needed a spot for a quick and casual dinner on a Tuesday night. Glad we gave this spot a try because we were met with the friendly owners who quickly whipped up our meals. Yummy meals with a budget friendly price! This spot is well worth the price. We ordered the gyro and chicken parm with fries which were good. The desserts looked scrumptious as well (they're on display in the front), but it was getting late and we didn't get a chance to try them. Overall, a great spot for anyone who's looking for a quick bite. Atmosphere is like a deli with dine in room so don't expect dine in to be fancy but the food at that price point and interaction with the owners is well worth it. The owners were super sweet and attentive. We were glad to have supported a small business! Definitely give this little hole in the wall a try. You won't be disappointed!

This place is the best!!!!! They have everything and the owner is so nice. Love that they're open late. I've moved away from madison and I miss going there honestly.

We ordered takeout from here and I was impressed. I would recommend takeout. When I travel, gyros are like a comfort food for me since you can find them a lot of places. I haven't been able to find many good gyros in the US, but I liked the gyros here! We had chicken schawarma, gyros, falafel and a salad. The best was probably the gyros and falafel. The sauce put on the wraps make them juicy (not dry). We had a good experience and I haven't had other good gyros around town so I'm giving this a high rating.

I came on a friend's recommendation. Apparently the eponymous koshari(e) is rarely found outside of Egypt, where it's street food. And indeed this is a relatively simple dish, kind of an Egyptianized (is that a word?) pasta. He also suggested getting double sauce (the tomato sauce) as that's where most of the flavor is. I did not do that and probably should have.The large is a massive amount of food for dirt cheap. It's an entire styrofoam container packed full of pasta. It would make for 2 filling normal person dinners. It's basically pasta with chickpeas and tomato sauce. I think my friend hyped this up a bit much for me and I came away feeling it was nothing special. Considering it's street food, not terribly surprising. Given his excitement, I'd give this another try but definitely ask for double the tomato sauce.

The owner Muhammad was such a nice guy, he greeted me like family right when I walked in. Food was fantastic .. can't wait to go back!

Great place to get gyros near campus, it looks a little shady when you walk in but the food is delicious.
