- A disappointment
I was really looking forward to this due to all the positive reviews, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed. It was very different from what I had expected. The staff were very friendly and the location is perfect, just one minute from Trafalgar Square. The prices are still very cheap, which I didn't expect in this location. However, I found the main dish - the Koshari - not edible at all. The caramelized onions on top were nearly burnt and so disgusting that I scraped them off. The other ingredients were not cooked enough and everything was quite tasteless apart from the sauce which was ok, but tasted readymade and not special at all. I had expected a special, tasty dish and what I got was a boring dish with some not edible onions on top. However, I got another salad which I had for dinner later, and that tasted fresh and was very nice. Seating is very limited and the seats very uncomfortable, so better come here in summer for a takeaway. If I ever come again, I will certainly just buy a salad - I won't try the Koshari again, once was enough.
