We ordered a Sharing Meal for 2, plus a Mixed Hawawshi Plate, 3 desserts and 2 drinks. We ended up having to take some of the food home as there was no way we could finish everything. Our favourite items were: the Dokka, Hummus, Cucumber Pickles & Bissara, the Koshari, the Tameya, and the Bassbousa. Can't wait to go back again.

I tried a variety of the meats and they were cooked to perfection--tender, flavorful, and well balanced with just the right spices and sauces. Nothing was dry, which made every bite enjoyable. Even though it was busy, the service was quick and very welcoming. The restaurant itself is spotless and clearly well maintained. They also offer traditional desserts like Om Ali, knefe, and rice pudding. If you want a more relaxed café vibe afterward, there's a café in the same parking lot run by the same owners with very comfortable seating and even a prayer room. Overall, a wonderful experience that definitely did not disappoint. I'll absolutely be back.

I remember looking over and thinking, "What is this place that's so full of life?" It was bustling with people and had such a great energy. I had never tried Egyptian food before, but I was feeling a little adventurous. I'm really glad I did. A few dishes were recommended, but I was told the Koshari is beloved in Egypt, so that's what I ordered. Be prepared for a bit of a carb coma, but it's absolutely worth it. It was delicious. The mix of pasta, rice, lentils, chickpeas, and crispy fried onions worked surprisingly well together, especially with the sauces they give you. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Toronto.

After reading the ingredients it also sounded decently healthy (mix of rice and pasta, with lentils, a tomato sauce, and crispy onions). I worried it would be boring but it was DELICIOUS! Also extremely filling too (you could probably get 2-3 meals out of it if you wanted to). There is plenty of seating in this food court style place. A great place to meet up with people who maybe want to eat different cuisines. I can't wait to return and try the falafel wrap as well, everything looked great!

Apparently this place was renovated into a more upbeat and classy atmosphere. I really love their white couches and light strips around the walls. It makes the room feel more comfy and upscale! (Tip: minimum age is 18 years old). The servers were such sweethearts. They are so down to earth and friendly to talk to. They also have belly dancers preform in the lounge at around 11:00 pm, but you have to pay an additional fee if you want to watch the performance. The lounge does not serve alcoholic beverages. Instead, they sell soda, bottled water, and green tea! (tip: they have no diet soda for those self-conscious people). My boyfriend and I got the premium flavor called White Gummy Bear. It was light, not too sweet, and very tasty! We also ordered a hot green tea with 2 sugars. The combination of green tea and gummy bear definitely hit the spot. The total bill came out to be $31 including tax but not tip, which is pretty cheap compared to New York City standards. The whole experience was worth it. This lounge was definitely LIT!
