Koshari Street in City of London, Westminster

Great vegan gluten free options

Visited many times on trips to London

The place is beautiful and clean All food is halal There is a lot of diversity in it We took the classic and it was nice and light

First time customer and loved the beef, really tasty and great value! I’m coming back soon to try the rest of the menu 😄

Fantastic food! Definitely going back

Wow amazing authentic Koshari - friendly staff and lovely Hummos , reccomend.

Had the Chermoula chicken wrap. Was so tasty! Chicken flavoured beautifully! Would recommend!

I only tried the classic and that was SO GOOD! It tasted fresh, deliciously spiced, hearty and healthy. The staff were very friendly as well. Why aren’t there more places in this city with such great value?!

The perfect place for my koshary fix, which is much needed in London as there are hardly any places that do it. They now have lots of choice and even have molokhair! I normally get it to go but they do have a few stalls to eat in. Shame they are still selling Coke Cola though as they are on the boycott list.

Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience! The Kuscahari was very disappointing.

The best vegan food mind you it was my first time having Egyptian food. Falafel is well seasoned and don’t get me started with the aubergine

Best food with reasonable prices.

The food served here is amazing. The large bowl is very filling and a good price too. Just not many seating places.

This is the best food you’ve never tasted! The Koshari Street team, Mo and Alicia, were top class! Welcoming space, hip and energetic branding with a reliable take on traditional Egyptian Street Food. Located in a very bustling part of the Leicester Square. Easy, Fast and Delicious! The bowls and wraps are a fast, flavorful and filling way to enjoy any meal on the go! But don’t be in a rush because the menu offers a perfect combination of tradition and nuance to try new things each visit. The familiar Egyptian flavors in the rice/vermicelli base combine wonderfully with any of the traditional protein bases. Multiple Chicken, Lamb, Beef and perfectly seasoned veggie options are available to complement. All glued together with delicious crispy onions on top! Explore something new and share a fabulous culinary exploration with Koshari Street. Don’t miss out!

I was just walking down the street thinking about dinner and went into this place, but when I looked for it to leave a review, I found out that it was an Egyptian restaurant :) I'm not a picky eater, so I just glanced at the menu and ordered something, and it was delicious. It felt like risotto with a good mix of tomatoes, beans, and meat. Personally, I think the price is expensive, but it was good for a quick meal.

We enjoyed the experience food is yummy, place is cleaned, staff are so friendly and amazing moreover they advice and explain very patience and politely The menu is Egyptian customised food Try their turkish coffee was amazing

We bought a fit chicken bowl and it was still delicious the next morning! The worker seemed really tired/over it but aren’t we all? Overall I had a very nice experience. Would come again :)

Had the Chicken Shawerma Koshari which was absolutely delicious! Would recommend getting the pickled chillies and crispy onions on top. The staff were also really friendly and service was very fast. Would highly recommend Koshari Street to everyone!

nice interior, friendly staff, delicious food

Great food, great value. Great for quick but filling office lunch.

Great food, good portions and friendly staff!

Koshari Street is a gem in London! The food is so rich in flavours. I've tried many different bowls – all of them are delicious. Some reviews mention it being pricey, but I disagree. The portions are generous, especially with the amount of protein and veggies they offer, compared to other places. It's a great value for the quality and freshness! Highly recommend!

Good taste, portion very small for the price

Very tasty food, very seasoned, you are full but still feel light, energetic and not stuffed. Different variations with different types of meat and a large vegetarian selection. Extremely nice staff, a great address, definitely recommended

Koshari Street in London offers a delightful taste of Egyptian street food, specializing in the beloved national dish, koshari. Located in Covent Garden, this charming eatery serves a hearty bowl of rice, lentils, pasta, and chickpeas, topped with a spicy tomato sauce and crispy fried onions. The dish is both filling and surprisingly light. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it a perfect spot for a quick lunch or a leisurely meal. The prices are reasonable. The unique blend of spices crafted adds a special touch that sets Koshari Street apart from other eateries. Whether you're a fan of Egyptian cuisine or trying it for the first time, Koshari Street is a must-visit for its authentic flavors and vibrant atmosphere.

Koshari was nice but not authentic, portion was a bit small but not bad

The atmosphere is pleasant the food is tasty and the staff is always helpful a wonderful spot

Very good healthy egyptian food.

I paid for the small bowl because thats whats priced on the menu, and its half of what you see in pictures on the menu. They didnt fill it to the top. It was not worth the portion. Went with my friend who is Egyptian and she said there was nothing Egyptian about it. So really not worth it for that either

Lovely Egyptian food! Great vegan or meat options - feels healthy, fresh and filling!

Amazing place where traditional Egyptian dish meets the new London foodie scene in the same bowl. Very tasty and innovative, just a few steps from Trafalgar square or your west end theatre adventures.

It's really delicious, simple and cheap. I ate all three days

The food was very good, I tried the classic one spicy and I really enjoy it. The place is so clean and cool. The people is so nice too.

I ordered Koshari, the food was delicious with a choice of appropriate toppings, and most importantly, it is halal and you can add chicken

Loved the fact that its soo light , nutrients packed and so tasty. My go to option for lunch breaks

What a beautifull place with very kind stuff .. i will repeat it when i come back to London again .. i had a very good experience . Very cool place with the Egyptian taste 😋. We are unlucky we don’t have Koshari st in Cairo.

Great welcome, fast service and very good food

Pre made falafel not even freshly fried ,

Food was affordable but the beef wrap was to wish for. A bit plain even with the extra sauce.

My wife just wanted a quick bite to eat and she's never had Egyptian food so why not try it out? Wasn't expecting much as its in a tourist area and just the words 'Street food' usually mean overpriced and small round here. Was so surprised. Great service, lovely chicken dish and the Egyptian coffee is top notch. If you just want a quick bite, makes a great change.

We visited Koshari Street for lunch when we were out in the Covent Garden area after seeing the place on Instagram. The Koshari was delicious and tasted homemade. The service and staff were amazing too - we find it always makes an experience better when the staff are attentive and check on how your food was. The portion sizes were generous. Overall, I would highly recommend Koshari Street, especially if you’ve never tried Egyptian food and want something different and nutritious when out in London.

After visiting Koshari Street I fell in love with Egyptian food! 💛 Good atmosphere, super friendly team, the portion is perfect and makes you feel full for long. Big choice of vegetarian meals but we went with Beef Halla Koshari and Chermoula Chicken Koshari. Definitely visiting again, thank you ☺️

I honestly cannot believe how bad the classic koshari was! Being Egyptian and wanting to support the business I was exited to try koshari at! I really expected decent Koshari but this is by far the worst koshari ive ever tasted! No tomato sauce flavour comes through, the rice is soggy, zero salt, no daqa flavour, it’s piping hot and the level of spice the person serving put on the dish was absolutely ridiculous. I spoke to the person at the till about how it tasted after not being able to have more the a handful of bites and he didn’t offer any compensation for the lacking service and food quality. The dish was relatively small for £8.50 (street food). Honestly you guys really need to up your game! What a massive shame…

I had the basic koshary and it was excellent. Staff is very friendly and topped up my bowl with the spicy tomatoe sauce, tangy with a kick. If not somehow better than koshary I had in the streets of cairo.

This was my 2nd time here but will never come back. After having not so good experience first time, I decided to give another go but it was even worse this time round. The food was bland overall, multigrain quinoa base was under cooked, I threw it in the bin as was not edible. Pricey with not much in the box, 3/4 boxed was filled with undercooked multigrain quinoa base with tiny amount of chicken on top. Not worth it at all.

Very tasty, great value wraps and bowls. Meat and vegan options available. Great spot for a quick lunch.

A little pricy for the street food category and portion but it is tasty and in manageable size. The slow cooked beef hela is tender and flavorful. I did’t expect macaroni in the base but it was fun.

It’s hard to find good vegan food but their vegan options are to die for 😍🤤 very good portion for the money. Will defo go again

Great service and very nice staff! Food came in and it was really good! I come in every so often and recommend for you to try this, even just once. I’m a big fan of the protein food!

Love their fit chicken koshari bowl! Amazing flavor and very filling 😋

Take out was fast with great service with a smile. The seat was a bit tall for me but food was delicious

The food was very good and customers service was excellent

Very impressed with the service staff was friendly and attentive .will be coming back again . Thank you

Tasty food and truly helpful, lovely staff!

I had one of their vegan bowls, and it was so flavorful! Everything was very nicely seasoned, and I got the spicy option, which had a bit of a kick and also added even more flavour! The crispy onions on top add a great texture to the dish. Food looked and tasted very fresh, and it’s healthy fast food! Will be going back for their other bowls!

Absolutely amazing and generous! ordered it for a group and they were very happy with the quality and the taste. Swift delivery, excellent coordination and very generous portions! well done Seif and team!

The food is so delicious, healthy fast food

This is from Saudi Eats in London, with 60k+ followers across social platforms. Instagram & Tiktok: saudieats.ksa We were blown away by these Egyptian koshari bowls. 🍲😮🔥 Our absolute favorite was the aubergine Koshari bowl - a delightful mix of aubergine, and crispy onions with a zesty tomato sauce and falafel. Loved all the different components in the bowl. We also tried the halla beef and chicken. Full of banging flavors! ⚡️ Highly recommended best Egyptian street food in an amazing location! Highly recommend this place to everyone looking for a light & healthy meal. 🍽️

Delicious food, nutritious and very unique.

Oh my gosh, the food is so fresh and delicious! I had the classic Koshari bowl and I am still dreaming about it days later. Please come bring this restaurant to Philadelphia in the U.S.! The lovely woman who served me was so kind to give me so many onions and explain what everything was. The other food looked fresh and delicious also. I watched the loving care that the woman and man gave towards the food they were preparing. The stalls were filled with happy guests. It wasn’t super comfortable seating for my mom and me but the food made it worth it.

A great place for healthy food with vegan and vegetarian options. Do try their mint teas, they are very refreshing. The service is quick and the staff are friendly.

The bowls had main Egyptian flavours including Molokheya, Koshary, the Meat Cubes etc but it felt more contemporary than local dishes. Would be great to include traditional dishes to allow first timers to have that experience. Description on google should reflect the concept as it gave the impression of offering traditional dishes. Overall great taste and amazing hospitality.

Popped in here looking for something quick and healthy to eat but was disappointed after a few bites. I ordered the koshari but frankly, it was bland, with the only saving grace being the delicious crispy onions on top. My friend ordered a falafel wrap, which I tried and it was okay, but nothing special nor close to some of the better falafel wraps I've tried in London.

Amazing experience. Very nice staff, Koshari bowl was very tasty. The combination of rice, lentils, noodles, fresh herbs, tender chicken thighs and joghurt sauce was the perfect match together with the green lemonade which has zero sugar. The only thing I would add to the portfolio is Pepsi MAX. I will definitely come back.

My first experience with egyptian food. I am happy I overcame my convenience and tried something new!! I thought many times of going in but never did because i don’t know what it is and was too lazy to try something. Once you step in and come to order they make it super easy and give you great recommendations! The result was so enjoyable. This experience was a pleasure and definitely not my last one!

Love this place. My fave egyptian snack

Very welcoming and courteous staff, tidy shop with delicious food. Highly recommended.

Delicious and healthy!! After being reached out to via LinkedIn, I accepted the offer of a couple free bowls for me and my colleagues to try. Seif took the time out of his day to hand deliver me the food to our office in Canary Wharf and I’m very grateful he did. After trying the complimentary bowls me and my colleagues were blown away! Very tasty and was the perfect size for a lunch at the office. Needless to say we will be back for more! Thank you Seif

Good value for money. Eat well and quickly. Inventive and original cuisine.

Amazing food, service and the staff were amazing. I highly recommend going with their recommendations

I love to come here! Its a great place to grab some nice filling food. Quick service and the staff are always friendly. I had never experienced Egyptian food before coming here, I love all the different components in the bowl. Highly recommend this place

What a super place, me and my wife had lunch here she had the aubergine falafels and I had the Koshari Classic with extra crispy onions and spice, utterly superb. And with 2 limonata it was an excellent lunch.

I tried delicious plain koshary

I am very happy that there are many vegan options. Portions are generous, gently flavoured, with a delicate hint of herbs/spices.

I just love this place and been using for many years. Classic does not contain meat! Sometimes I dine in as has a nice atmosphere, very close to national and portrait gallery, good value and does meal deals. Egyptian street food it is fantastic!

I had never had Egyptian food before coming here and now it is a regular lunch spot for me and my colleagues. Great lunch deals as well.

Really lovely service and the food is incredible.

Great find - great food Thanks!

I stopped here on a recent visit to London for a quick lunch. The atmosphere is simple, clean, friendly, upbeat. The food is extremely good. I didn't know exactly what to expect for healthy Egyptian street cuisine, but this was just so delicious and fresh. Highly recommended.

Expensive and alright but wanted something more tasty for 12.50! I had a large Levanteen vegan bowl. It was filling and was mostly rice, pasta, pulses, chickpeas. With a some sauce, small sprinkling of crispy onion & some small pinch of seeds and penuts. Apart from the nuts these are all low cost food items and I didn't sit down to eat. So hard to see why the price was the same as a pizza and beer sitting down in a restaurant down the road.

Gorgeous, healthy, filling food. Always friendly staff too. Perfect for a passing bite to eat or to sit in and take your time. Would highly recommend.

Excellent find. Food was off the chart. Thank you for all the creative vegan options. My favourite was the Falafel and Aubergine. Service was on point too.

I recently ordered the lamb house bowls from them and it was amazing, make sure you also add the hummus!

A very nice place, very friendly and fast people, I would return without hesitation

Great Vegan food ! Loved the Cauli Bowl and it was a fab first experience with Egyptian food.

amazing food, service and atmosphere🥰

food, service and atmosphere was excellent

Amazing food! Wonderful service! Will come again definitely!

Food was very tasty and the owner he is amazing thanks for everything

Amazing service from Raluca and the team. Def will come back.

On 6th March 2024 I went there at around 8.15pm. After entering the shop the lady behind the bar straightaway said that during that time they had only chicken shawarma and classic koshari available at the shop. I gently asked her re the taste of these two items as I usually have the Fit Chicken from their menu so I was unaware about the taste of those two. Then she answered that - by looking at you it doesn’t seem like you are not here to buy anything so I don’t feel the necessity to explain the taste to you but if you want you can look at the menu and try to understand it yourself. Then I thanked her and walked away from the shop.

Amazing place to dine with outstanding service and amazing food!!

Great find, never had Egyptian Street food before and really enjoyed it! I had the Chicken Koshari with the spicy tomato sauce and it was delicious. Will go back again

Suuuper delicious, you can tell the love put into the slow cooked beef, and a perfect balanced and nutritious lunch that won’t leave you feeling super heavy afterwards! Highly recommend to try this place :)

Cosy Egyptian fast food eatery. Superb flavourful and filling wraps and bowls.

Absolutely delicious authentic bringing this Egyptian staple dish to the capital! The koshari is very tasty, their regular sauce is perfect for my 2 year old who loved Koshari on her trip to Egypt, the spicy alternative is absolutely spot on for my taste buds!

First time trying Egyptian food and I’m in love with it. Full of flavours, I really enjoyed it. Definitely will come again and recommend it to my friends.

I have always dreamed of eating Koshari on the streets of Egypt. This place in London’s Covent Gardens is a little gem and everything tastes delicious. I had the Fit Chicken twice this week! It’s absolutely amazing and the flavour and heat notes are just right. Lovely place and staff. Very much recommend.

Amazing food and great service!!! Worth every penny!!!

The food is excellent and Alicia has served us great. Without a doubt, a highly recommended place to eat and have a good time.
