Tagine offers refined Moroccan cuisine in an intimate setting. As the only fine dining Moroccan restaurant in Los Angeles, our diverse menu infuses centuries old recipes with modern sensibilities to reflect a fresh perspective.

We believe each dish should be originally presented, perfectly proportioned, visually inspiring, and built off the last. Candles flicker. Plush banquettes line the walls. Black and white photographs from celebrated portraitist Dan Winters hang next to hand-made mirrors. Jazz warmly emanates throughout the room. Chef Ben, along with Chris Angulo and Ryan Gosling, would like to invite you to experience Tagine.

History

Established in 2004.

– A catering opportunity in Hollywood put his dishes in the company of many well-known celebrities, including a then-rising star, Ryan Gosling. A few empty plates later, Ryan inquired about the caterer insisting it was “food he would eat everyday for the rest of his life.” The two became instant friends and after some time talking, they agreed there was something missing in L.A- the kind of place that made you feel warm and satisfied; a place where the food is made with love.

    This place is by far the best restaurant in the area and I won't be exaggerating saying it's the best in LA. My family is Moroccan, so I know Moroccan food by heart. This place is authentic and keeps high standards for flavors and quality. The food is just so amazing it reminded me of my grandmother who passed away 20 years ago. I almost went to the kitchen to check if she is there. The vegetarian options are amazing and I'm craving them all the time! The house mezze platter is so good and rich. It's so called simple food but the flavors are so sophisticated and perfect. The baklava is great and the tea is nothing You've ever tasted. Just so amazing. The staff are so welcoming and warm, service is amazing, and we just come back over and over again as it is a gem, an absolute delight.

    My husband and I had the 9-course tasting menu to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The service was excellent and very friendly. Most of the food was delicious, especially the lamb. The scallops were the only disappointing dish. We will return to try individual entrees, but the tasting menu is not the best value for us. Thank you for a very pleasant time.

    This is a charming little place, where the food was delicious and service was excellent. The decor was classy, and seats were very comfortable (loved the large cushions on the booth seats!). My son was reminded of "Ratatouille" when our server opened the lid of our tagine dish! Lol! We really appreciated Chef Ben stopping by at our table to give us our appetizers and explaining what was in them. All the food was delicious, but we really enjoyed the mezze platter, the mint tea and the desserts at the end! Special occasion restaurant for us, as it was on the pricey side. Would recommend making reservations, as it's a small restaurant.

    Really intimate, cozy, and relaxed vibe serving up Moroccan dishes! The atmosphere is dimly lit and the service is pretty good. The food is on the sweeter side with warm spices such as cinnamon that make a prominent statement. I came here on a date to check out what they had for Dine LA (which has just ended). For appetizers, we got the Bastilla Chicken and Shrimp Mosaic Salad. The Bastilla Chicken was grounded up and wrapped in a thin phyllo-like dough with a dusting of warm spices. The Shrimp Mosaic Salad was bright and sweet with diced nuts and other small veggies to give it more texture. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and overall topped with a sweet dressing. Between the two, I liked the Shrimp Mosaic Salad better since it was more filling and had more dimensions of flavor. For the entrees, we got the Honey Lamb Tagine and the Fish of the Day Tagine, which happened to be seabass. The Honey Lamb was sweet as expected over a nice amount of couscous. A bit too sweet for my liking of an entree, especially after the sweet appetizers, but still good. The Fish of the Day Tagine was definitely the star. Well cooked and very tasty. It was smaller portion wise, but I preferred it more. I also had their Moroccan Sangria. It was on the dryer side and not as sweet with some mint elements. Since it was on the bitter side, it actually paired well with the Honey Lamb Tagine. However, as a standalone drink I probably wouldn't get it by itself. Lastly, for dessert we got the Chocolat Soup and Sorbet Mixed Berries. The Chocolat Soup had a nice thick ganache-mousse with a warm chocolate sauce. Very chocolately! The Sorbet was mint and fresh. I like the brightness of this dessert in contrast with the Chocolat Soup, but both were winners! Overall, I enjoyed the experience at Tagine. Definitely good if you like food on the sweeter side too.
