we were in the mood for Moroccan food and online reviews said this place was good so we made a reservation to check it out.
overall the place is good with good service, decent portion and decent flavors. we started off with the greek salad and the hummus and then got the halloumi skewer and chicken tangine. the hummus was served with pita but it was actually frozen naan and they were not good. the hummus was decent
the couscous plate was a decent portion and had good veggies - the chicken was a bit bland and couldโve used some more flavor. the halloumi was decent but it was definitely not a veggie skewer that accompanied
overall - decent food and good portion size but flavor is a bit lacking
Always busy here it seems but well worth getting a table inside or outside if you wish.
Some wonderfully tasty options, with good size portions. So busy though that my table of four guests all felt guilty to sit there afterwards to enjoy the moment, as the queue was building up outside!
Veggie and gluten free options, always good to discover!
A small cozy place. As often happens in New York, it's old and shabby, with scratches on the mirrors and its own smell, decorated in a mismatched wayโjust the way it turned out. The staff is very young and friendly. At one point, the waiter suggested clearing all the plates, even though we had just barely touched our food. The pita bread with hummus could have been served hot; that would have made it tastier. Instead, it was cold and already stuck together. The hummus seemed a bit watery, lacking in flavor. The Greek salad was ordinaryโneither particularly good nor bad. The baba ganoush was decent, but it lacked the characteristic smokiness of the dish. The Moroccan iced tea without sugar was okay. The bill wasnโt too high. I probably wonโt recommend it to my friends, and for next time, Iโll choose something else.
Reasonable wait on a Friday night for a table of two (approx 20 mins), so definitely try to grab a seat even if you donโt have a reservation. The food was made fresh, we especially enjoyed the bastilla! Staff was efficient and great atmosphere, super cozy with plenty of seating.
Absolutely lives up to the hype! Oh baby the food was delicious! Highlights were the vegetable curry (was on specials menu so not sure how often itโs available) and the baba ganoush. Canโt wait to come back and try more!
