Why do not you help the customers of the restaurant on the corner of their car without exposing them to the barges of the sidewalk is haraam hard and cause us to retreat

Because this is a place of traffic to continue because its location is very lively in the center of the country, it is better that you travel there than non-Arab Possible by Taxi

It became too expensive to eat The quantity is low

There is someone who is in his level and cleaner and more quantity and a better place than this random place

I did not have a regular dish too

The right of Maak right Kashi Malhoush taste and non-objectionable, boiled boiled and dependent on the additions Tdelh taste, shops Ktir stronger and feed him

Do you see it as a good place?

It's not like a monster I do not need you

Unfortunately you have to pay the bill before you eat unless you are known as a cucumber and a wretch

The dish is 30 pounds

The subject of payment before eating is not something sincere

I was not worried about Uncle KFC

The taste of koshari is normal tiredness, it is not distinguished in other places, sweeter than it, and a topic that I pay before eating is an aggravating need. It was a bad experience and it will not happen again.

Actually, it tastes very ordinary but it only provides food

It is not a good place to wait for a long time to ask for a service

Excellent need is the taste of Koshari dish

Loved this place. Loved the food and the service. Everything about this place is great. But they only serve koshari and that's what we wanted. And the prices are great.

Good food, very busy, be patient to get a table, try the third floor or fourth floor if you are in good shape. Very economical place 9 people less than 350 pounds. Excellent service. You must stop by.

Iconic place for egyptian koshary. It did not disappoint. Very unique mix of different ingredients which blend together nicely. the taste is best described as whole wheat italian pasta with tomato sauce and fried onions.

You don't have to stress about what to order here because there's no choice. Koshary is the only main dish. Your choice is small, medium or large. Actually they also have a yummy rice pudding.

Absolutely LOVED this place. Came here after getting lost in Cairo and was so pleasantly surprised. All they sell is Koshari and they do it perfectly. Would especially recommend for travelers wanting to get an authentic Koshari. We paid 74 for 2 big meals and 2 drinks.

Excellent koushary for an authentic filling meal. Their koushary is completely vegetarian, and tastes great! You add the spicy sauce yourself, so you can make it as hot as you like.

The most expensive plate they have has a very few lentil. The taste was rather salty and the tomato sauce was average. Taste is going down.

-Overrated restaurant that provides some local dishes but without the real authentic taste.- tourists are all over the restaurant but unfortunately they're having one of the worst meals ever.- The waitresses will be roaming around the moment you finish your food and will be looking you on the eye so you get the feeling that you gotta get out which is completely unprofessional.

they tried to rip us off since we were traveling. told us the price of the one dish was like five times the task price. luckily a local helped tell us the correct price before we ordered. then the waiter kept tricking us on change. always asks for cash upfront and then never gives change unless you ask three times. the first two times i got him eventually (ordered one before ordering more), but after i ordered a drink, i forgot because we were busy trying to figure out our schedule. he never gave me my change for that one and took all the money new originally tried to cheat us of back!!! start clear!!!!!

They only have one dish but is so good! We ate there every day during our stay in Cairo. They explained us how to mix the sauce in it, but we needed to stop them on the spice sauce because I don't like too much spicy ;) if they don't give you lemon, ask for it: it sure gives a final touch to the dish. It is not expensive at all but they will look bad if you don't give them a nice tip, as everywhere in Egypt... I ordered the small size and was ok for me.

Abu Tarek is definitely the place to eat Khosri in Cairo. Cheap, tasty, simple they serve the food quickly and with a smile. They only have three dishes...a small or large khoshri and rice pudding which is excellent as well. Make sure you add all the spices and sauces to the dish when proposed, just hold off on the hot sauce if you do not like it. A cultural well in Cairo.

Amazing Koshary! It’s my first time eating Koshary and it’s so good! I can see why Koshary Abou Tarek is the IT restaurant in Cairo. The portion is humongous and it’s so filling. It’s the best we’ve tasted in Egypt. Love it! And you must try it if you’re in Cairo!

* My favorite place to buy koshari from, however, I don't dine in. I did it once many years ago but didn't enjoy the experience (crowded, level of cleanliness wasn't all that much back then. Not sure if they changed. I take away the food and eat at home.

The Koshary place. Sells only that but it tastes very good. One small portion is filling enough for an adult. Tastes far better than all other places i tasted Koshary. Caution about the spicy sauce, it is indeed very spicy! 🔥🔥

This is a simple, affordable and filling dish. The small size is really not small. This dish doesnt have any meat. The location is in downtown and it is always full but there is no wait as the food is already prep and ready to go. You pay first, they give you a ticket and you go collect your food

This place serves one of thing. Get that thing! Its pasta, tomato sauce, lentils, fried onions, and other goodness. It's hearty, the staff is friendly, and it's served quickly. Make it as spicy (or not) as you want by the chili paste on the table!
