    We got banana bread, hibiscus tea and coffee All were great. The space is friendly and so is the staff.

    This experience was interesting! The cafe itself had cool vibes. I ordered just a black coffee, and as I walked out of the store, the employee chased me out to get my coffee back-- they had brewed it in correctly (you are supposed to grind the beans before brewing). Great service in that respect! However, when I finally got the correctly made cup of coffee, it was a fairly dark, slightly overroasted flavored blend, and I got a big old mouthful of grounds at the end. I was given a card with all the stamps to redeem a free coffee my next visit, so I will be back. But for now, not my favorite cup of joe in the city!

    I think we as a community need more cute, cozy, and spacious cafes like Luxor!!! This place is such a treat and is absolutely perfect to spend a cold winter day. I was shocked how big this cafe is on the inside.. despite coming in the middle of the day there were plenty of seats available. The environment here is very relaxed, so it's easy to spend a few hours. What makes it even better is the food is delicious! I loved the baklava latte and their shakshouka, but I feel like you can't go wrong with anything on their menu.

    Food was fire and the vibes were immaculate. Really friendly staff. The sandwich was really good and the matcha was perfect.

    I will never stop thinking about this place. It got so bad I went there three times in one week. The baklava latte is sooooo good. Not too sweet and reminded me of actual flaky baklava. The french toast was also good, standard as french toast goes, nothing crazy to say about it but it was good! I just love that dang baklava latte.

    I arrived at Luxor on a Saturday and while there were other people inside, it was not overly busy. I decided to order the Baklava latte and Om Ali French Toast. They have plenty of seating and even another floor downstairs which has a great atmosphere for studying and working. I found the tables a bit too short for the seats, so I preferred sitting upstairs. The staff were very nice and keen on answering questions about the menu while giving their recommendations. I was handed a beeper to notify me when my food was ready. Unfortunately, there were quite a bit of incidents which made me hesitant to rate this cafe higher. When my beeper rang, I went to grab my French Toast only to find that it was a different French Toast from what I ordered. Thankfully, the staff realized the error, so I went back to my seat to wait. It was only then that I realized my coffee was still not ready yet. I was then told that they had run out of pistachio sauce for the latte hence the delay. I realized that the same sauce was used for my French Toast as well. After about 20ish minutes, my French Toast was brought to my table. My coffee was then ready sometime after. Aware of the long wait for my coffee (it took about 30 minutes), the staff did offer me a free pastry which I gladly took to pair with my meal. Now onto the ACTUAL review of the food and drink. The French Toast was simply delicious. It was not overly sweet, and I enjoyed the pairing of the sauce with the almonds and coconut flakes. My only qualm is that each slice of bread looked overly burnt, but that was not a major issue as it did not ruin the taste. The whipped cream did not have much flavor by itself, but it was light and nice when paired with each bite of the French Toast. Overall, it was quite filling without being too heavy and I enjoyed it. Now, the Baklava latte left me with mixed feelings. The coffee tasted smooth and nice, but each sip resulted in bits of pistachio swirling around inside my mouth. I understand that the pistachio was used for the sauce but imagine trying to have a sip of coffee only to have to bite down onto each incoming pistachio bits throughout the entire drink. Despite the prevalent number of pistachio bits in the drink, it was not very strong flavor-wise. Overall, this is a wonderful place to come and catch up with a friend with quite an extensive menu. I would love to come back and give them another try as their service is great and friendly. Hopefully next time they are slightly more prepared with their ingredients at hand.

    Churro latte was really delicious and I am always down for a new flavor when it comes to coffee. The coffee was a perfect combination of sweet but not too sweet. The people working made my experience. They were not only friendly, but helpful in answering questions and curating a perfect drink. Inside was cozy, airy and definitely somewhere nice to catch up with a friend. I can't wait to go back and try the french toast and other breakfast items! This will surely become a staple in Harvard Sq for coffee, food and good vibes.

    Great tea abdelrahman is the goat. All the seating is nice and varied, good vibes, not a cookie cutter cafe. Definitely the sort of place I'm gonna come back to.
