About

BAB KECH specializes in authentic Moroccan culinary traditions, focusing on robust flavor profiles and traditional preparation techniques. The menu centers on fragrant tagines featuring slow-cooked meats and vegetables, balanced with aromatic blends of cinnamon, saffron, and ginger. Patrons encounter a variety of savory couscous dishes topped with meticulously seasoned chickpeas, raisins, and tender proteins. The kitchen utilizes preserved lemons and brined olives to provide the signature acidity essential to North African gastronomy. Decorative mosaic tiling and ornate metal lanterns define the physical environment, creating an immersive atmosphere that reflects deep regional influences. Every plate serves as a testament to spice-forward cooking, where complex layering of ingredients remains the primary objective. This establishment maintains a strict adherence to cultural cooking methods, prioritizing substance and historical accuracy in every serving of bread, stew, or grain.

J'ai pris le bol kech aux falafels avec harissa & c'était tellement délicieux! Je suis arrivée là tôt un jeudi soir alors j'ai été servie très rapidement, le temps que mes patates & mes falafels cuisent & c'était prêt. Il y avait de délicieuses sauces différentes sur la salade & les falafels. Le couscous était bon & servi avec un soupçon de bouillon de légumes. J'ai demandé de la harissa que j'ai complètement vidée sur le couscous & c'était franchement délicieux! Attention toutefois, c'est piquant & pour personnes habituées seulement je dirais :D Mon nouveau resto préféré au Central!

Le pita au poulet avec patates est très délicieux. Une très bonne expérience générale. Un restaurant qui mérite plus de visibilité.

Royal couscous is so delicious, a mix of mergaz, brisket-like meat & lemon-flavored chicken. Add your favorite toppings as almond or caramelized raisins to enjoy a bowl with rich tasty flavors. Chef Shams is friendly & was pleasant to talk to. This is not an independent restaurant, but located in a food court. If you're into couscous, go for it!

Pour le menu d'abord. Vraie soupe marocaine (harira!), vraie pastilla (meilleure qu'à Marrakech, jte jure!), une harissa qui pique (pas une patente dans un tube de pâte à dents jaune), patates charmoula bien relevées! & que dire du service souriant & avenant. Aux fourneaux, ils sont fiers & souriants. & manger dans les plats faits au Maroc... la totale ! Merci! On reviendra !

Excellent coucous, j'ai pris l'extra brochette de poulet aux citrons confits & je ne l'ai pas regretté. Le poulet était tendre & juteux. Assise au comptoir j'ai eu la chance de jaser avec l'équipe. Des gens gentils, serviables & fiers de la qualité de leur cuisine.
