Koshari Mama - Somerville

I tried Koshari Mama for the first time last week and I can't stop thinking about it! The atmosphere is cozy and the staff is very friendly. We tried the just aubergine, mushroom shawarma, falafel plate, and chicken sandwich (not shown) - everything was incredibly tasty. I highly recommend it as some of the best vegan food around!

This is a new Egyptian/Lebanese place in somerville. beautiful, colorful decor. very clean, Egyptian music in the background to play. super friendly staff. the aubergine-fritten appetizer was hot and tasty. my fake looked great, but was actually pretty dirty. they have to clean it up or get a hot sauce on the side. the fungal sandwich of my friend was decent, but a bit expensive.

I'm a car with carnivores. I finally decided to give koshari mama a shot, and young. the fried aubergine was delicious and perfected! also the mushroom, the pfeffer and the wobble with garlic cream sauce was great. dina and katie treated my man and I like family. it was great to see two WHS alumni and look so good!

Delicious food, very sweet interieur, very nice service. I love this place and wish I'd live closer so I could get him all the time. everything is great, but I really recommend the koshari and the chicken sandwich. the photos are the falafel, and the kofta pane (which is made impossible) are not all on the menu that I would reject, and they also have to get dessert, not skip!

Food is expensive, portions small. I ordered the mushroom shawarma and kabe kofta; $46.Mushroom shawarma is okay, very garlicky sauce. Rice was dry and over cooked.The kabe kofta is impossible meat battered and deep fried. For $20 I was expecting an entree, not an appetizer.The restaurant is understaffed. Sweet ladies, but the ratio of staff to customer for dinner service meant the waitstaff was overworked.
