"I'm eating around the world without leaving London and this week I headed to Koshari Street for Egyptian food. Koshari is a traditional Egyptian dish that consists of rice, chick peas, macaroni and lentils topped with a (hot) tomato sauce and sprinkled with vermicelli and crispy fried onions. Allegedly it started as a leftover dish among lower class families when the cook of the house would add the week's leftover food items into one big pot. Another story is that this dish came to Egypt via India and Italy, where each country would add their favourite ingredient to it. It used to be sold on food carts in the streets, but over recent years it has turned into a very popular dish that is...read more"

Nice n nutritious wholesome vegetarian food, all-in-a-spot style. The fried onion and nutty toppings make it a perfect takeaway. They have quite a quirky selection of deserts too.

Delicious simple Egyptian fare that's light on the calories and the budget *Choice of spices levels so there's something for everyone Quick and cheap the basic bowl costs to eat in *Layered well so there's a nice bite to it all

yummy yummy yummy. yes, that one of the best koshari I had ever tried to fast service friendly staff. a thing I didn't like is that the place is very small, so they have to eat quickly so that others can sit. you visit london is not counted unless they tried the koshari street so give it a try.

this place is certainly worth a try. they have tailored authentic Egyptian dishes. I ordered koshari medium dish. it contains lenses, tears and pasta with sauce and fried wobble. all that is mixed together is really healthy, but due to its garlic sauce and spicy powder (the name I don't remember) you could not like it, you go! but this place you should go if you are a person who like to try new kitchen.

we have the chance to try the Egyptian cuisine on the Borough market. we tried the middle bowl of koshari combo, which was koshari and balati salat. salat with a delicious twist is what I would call it. it was a bowl of lenses, freshly cut salad, dressings and a lot of spices like fried wobble. it had a lot of taste. it had a very interesting taste and would like to eat it again this place is definitiw a try, it is vegan, its healthy. if you like to taste different kitchens, small portions like these are good.

The restaurant was completely empty but it really is more of a hole-in-the-wall type place for take-outs, with only a few spaces to sit. While I was there they did have some take away orders. I hope Koshari Street does well because it really works as a healthy fast food outlet that brings a bit of Egyptian street culture to London. With the unrest in Egypt at the moment it is less likely Londoners will be holidaying there, but at least we can taste the street food over here and imagine how it compares to the real thing.

EGYPTIAN GEM A vegetarian place where non vegetarians will not miss the meat Came across this place while walking around Leicester Square. Having never tried Egyptian food before so was not sure what to expect An Egyptian street food It's a mixture of rice, lentils, macaroni and vermicelli, with whole chickpeas, spicy tomato sauce, a spice mix with seeds, garlic vinegar and a sublime quantity of ultra-crispy caramelized fried onions, all piled into a cute tub or banana leaf AMBIANCE Its a tiny place with great value food nestled smartly among the hustle and bustle of London's busy streets. It is a small place but well run, clean and fresh looking shop. The place is...read more

a small business with authentic street food from Egypt initially opened a selection of Egyptian street food classic, both hearty and sweet. I have not seen or experienced many Egyptian restaurants in london and should really have more of these places in london as they will really enjoy eating. the food: classic koshari (classic basic, tomato sauce, chickpeas, garlauch Da’a dressing, fried zwiebeln, spicy doqa nut mix) topf aus reis und pasta with a beautiful zesty and seasoned tomato sauce. from the website it seems that it is a national court that is sold on street and restaurants throughout Egypt and that the heart of the nation is captured. now I can't wait to go...read more

I absolutely love this pure carb Egyptian dish. When we lived in Egypt, this was the only local dish that we truly loved (other than fattah) as the chilli sauce is served on the side and we could up the heat quotient as much as we liked While it's pretty easy to make at home, it's a bit time consuming with the different pastas, lentils, pastes and fried onions that need to be prepared, so it's not something I cook frequently Egyptian friends in London introduced us to this place and we keep going back when we want a carby overload Koshari street offers a selection of chilli sauces with their kosharis and we obviously favour the king chilli the spiciest one. Other than koshari...read more
