This is a very special place we have here in Ottawa, some of the best food you will ever have! Hands down the best Koshari I have had from Ottawa to Toronto, I definitely recommend this place, food is always cooked fresh and done with care, if you ever wanted an idea of what Egyptian food is come here and try it out!.. and definitely try the Koshari!!!! It was inhaled soo quickly i didn’t get a chance to take a picture!lool

The owner is also one of the nicest and kindest people you will ever meet, support this resteraunt! Give them a try! Money well spent.

Thank you again and we will definitely see you again soon!

This place is a true hidden gem! I visited for the first time today, and their koshari instantly took me back to my trip to Cairo. The food is fantastic, and the owner is very friendly. Highly recommended!

I have an Egyptian friend who has been telling me for years to try koshari – and I finally did at Egyptian Corner. It was really good! I also had a liver sandwich which was super delicious. Small place with only a few tables, but views into the kitchen and everything was clean. Cook was friendly too. Prices are really good for the quality and quantity of food. I ate the whole bowl of koshari and it felt like a kilogram of goodness.
