" I had a sweet experience at Kosharie, where the owner was amiable and the food was pleasingly authentic. The chicken biryani was recommended to me and I was very pleased with it; tender chicken, flavorful rice, and a solid portion size! I left satisfied and would recommend this place for anyone craving genuine Mediterranean flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" During a recent visit to Kosharie, I tried the lamb kebab for the first time. It was tender and beautifully spiced. The owner shared the story behind the dish, which made it even more special. The atmosphere is homey, and the service was prompt. I look forward to returning for more delicious meals. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful dinner at Kosharie! The kosharie was comforting and filled with delicious, fresh ingredients. The service was personable. The bright side is that you really get a taste of authentic Egyptian cooking here, and although the restaurant could be improved in size and decor, the food is what keeps me coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a small get-together at Kosharie, and let me tell you, it was a hit! Everyone loved the kosharie and the lamb kebabs, both of which disappeared quickly. I appreciate how the owner engaged with us and shared the story behind the recipes. The atmosphere is cozy and makes you feel like part of the family. I couldn't recommend this place more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many Mediterranean restaurants, and I can confidently say Kosharie is one of the best! The authentic flavors and the generous portions really impressed me. The owner takes pride in their work and that shows in every dish. I had the chicken biryani, which was filling and delicious. I will definitely be visiting again soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food, lovely service, cozy atmosphere! I tried a mix of items on the menu, including the falafel and chicken shawarma. Everything was spot on. The falafel was crispy and full of herbs, and the shawarma had just the right amount of flavor. You can't go wrong here; I highly recommend visiting Kosharie if you're in town. You won't regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally got a chance to try this place, and I can't believe I waited so long! The kosharie was so hearty and fulfilling. The flavors were authentic and reminded me of home. The owner was super accommodating, making sure we were satisfied with our meal. Plus, the baklava was the cherry on top. I’ll be back for more in the future! " (*Curated Review*)
