Mona's reviews


Delicious roast duck with rice - ordered as a surprise for my partner on valentine's day - he was not disappointed and neither was I! We had mini Basbousa for dessert and these were also scrumptious. As there were only two of us we had duck left over, which made another tasty meal the next day as an egg fried rice dish - with some more Basbousa! Would thoroughly recommend Mona's food, extremely tasty.

Simply superb - we had the Koshari , it was new to us- even though it's apparently classic Egyptian comfort food. So good: textures, the spiced tomato sauce and then the crispy onions 💥💥💥 - we loved every bite.The perfumed Basbousa are such a treat; we chose 12 tiny cakes and they are ( we've still got some to enjoy today) so perfect to finish up a feast with.We'll definitely be ordering again.

Oh my. Mona's food was delicious. A real treat to be able to taste her beautiful Duck and Basbousa. I cannot recommend Mona's food more highly. I have to say that the beautiful long rice that accompanied the duck was wonderful too. Her food has kept us going for two days too!! Thank you so much Mona. We would love to order again.

We had the Dawood Basha which was delicious and the delicate Basbousa, so fragrantly tasty with a hint of orange blossom and beautifully presented. Thank you Mona!

We ordered the chicken mandi and it was absolutely delicious. Very generous servings, beautifully spiced and so fresh. Cannot recommend highly enough. Home cooking at it’s finest!

We had the Koshari and Tandori chicken which was tender and tasty .All enjoyed very much. Thank you

We ordered the Chicken Mandi. It was really delicious, I loved it. I can really recommend Mona's cooking!

Beautifully presented and delicious food! We really loved the Basbousa, and my husband felt very emotional eating Mona's harissa which reminded of him of his own mother's. I'm afraid I didn't get to try the Dawood Basha as it was gobbled up by the family too quickly! Very much recommended. Thank you Mona.
