I ordered two dishes to go.. the Hawawshi and the mixed grill shawarma plate. The latter was mostly delicious and the quantity was generous. The shawarma strips and the kofta was the best part. The rice was good, salad and pickles were fresh and hummus was perfect. However the chicken kabob pieces were charred and dry from being overcooked. I would have given this dish an automatic five stars if there was more shawarma and no chicken. The Hawawshi was interesting. It was my first time trying it and I would describe it as similar to a calzone crossed with a meat pie. I liked it but it was missing a bit of spice for my taste buds. Would like to try this place again.

One of the best Egyptian/Alexandrian restaurants in the U.S.! The flavors are rich and authentic, portions are generous, and the quality is outstanding. You can really taste the tradition in every dish. Definitely coming back.

A small restaurant with four tables and chairs fixed to the floor, narrow and uncomfortable. Perhaps normal chairs would be better, and if you are not in good health, you will not be able to sit. The restaurant needs to find a good Egyptian chef because the food has no taste. It needs to print several copies of the menu instead of sticking a worn-out piece of paper on the cashier’s table, which wastes the time of customers and workers. It also needs to pay a little more attention to cleanliness. I hope the restaurant will be better so that it represents the face of Egypt’s civilization.

One of my greatest experiences. I tried both the chicken and mixed grill shawarma plate which was a true explosion of flavor; tangy sauce, savory grilled meat, and some fresh vegetables all topped on rice. I also recommend baklava, a sweet pastry that’s flaky but dense at the same time. Incredible prices for everything on the menu.

Most authentic, coolest place to get Egyptian and shawarma. I’ll gladly drive out of my way 45 minutes to eat here. They know my name and immediately remember my order. Great job guys!

Tried this place for the first time via Grubhub – it is outstanding. We tried the mixed grill, hawawshi, and the macarona and loved them all. The flavors, the crunch of the hawawshi, even the little salad and hummus were great. The food came hot which sadly doesn’t always happen with the delivery apps, and I appreciate that attention to detail to get the timing right.
10/10 We will definitely be ordering again.

By far, hands down!! The BEST Egyptian Kushari (Vegan platter) and mouthwatering savoury flavours in the Grilled Mixed Meat plate in all of Boston!! FINALLY we found a place where your mouth will literally thank you!!
Definitely coming back for dine in only!!
We also ordered the Kushari to go two weeks later but it disappointed bcuz it wasn’t as fresh as dine-in.
The seating isn’t classy and I’d otherwise not even give it a chance based on looks, but I was craving real food & grilled meat! This place definitely did not disappoint when we dined in the first time! I’m still dreaming of the flavours!! A must try!

Food was good. Kushari could have been more authentic i feel like canned lentils or chickpeas were used i could be wrong. More flavorful I would have been better. The kafta kebab wrap was excellent! Im sure other things are great too

We ordered a lot of food. The good part of the restaurant is it was open till late.
Everything was great. I was a bit disappointed in the koshari. It was a weird blend of a lot of stuff. The pasta , the rice and sweet red sauce etc just didn’t make a good combination .
The falafels were rich with flavours and the other dishes were decent too.
A good restaurant to try out

Awesome #halal Egyptian food! We’ve had the rotisserie chicken and hawawshi, and both were excellent. The rotisserie chicken is especially delicious as it is cooked to perfection and served with delicious hummus, garlic sauce, salad and your choice of rice or fries. The fries are also crispy and tasty. Service is fast and there’s ample space & street parking to dine in.
We’ll be back to try out everything else on the menu!
