Si je pourrais donner ZÉRO j'aurais donner ZÉRO! Nous avons appeler au téléphone pour réserver pour 2 personnes, une fois arrivée là-bas on nous a renvoyer chez nous on nous disant qu'il ne pouvais pas nous prendre car il étais « occupé » il y avait 4 clients dans tous le restaurant alors que ça capacité peut largement accueillir une trentaine & malgré ça , AUCUNE place pour nous sachant que nous venons de loin & que j'avais l'intention de faire découvrir ma culture à mon copain . Quel honte! Plus jamais je mettrais les pied dans ce restaurant absurde.

La nourriture est délicieuse & authentique.
Le patron s'occupait ce soir à la fois de la cuisine & du service, & malgré ceci, il était extrêmement sympathique & nous a fait nous sentir comme des hôtes de marque.
Je recommande vivement!
L'établissement est occupé un staff personnel & c'est le propriétaire. Donc autant vous dire que le service était médiocre, aucun professionnalisme, aucune courtoisie, comportement désagréable vis à vis la clientèle, si vous voulez une goûter expérience vous serez servis .
Restaurant de quartier avec des prix abordables & des portions très généreuses, j'ai adoré le couscous aux merguez & la crêpe mille trous en dessert! Mention particulière pour le sourire & l'amabilité du patron, je recommande
Loved it ! My first time eating Moroccan food & I don't regret a thing. The food was excellent, & the service was great. I had the chicken tajine & my boyfriend had the lamb & both were absolutely succulent. Our waiter was really nice & took the time to explain the culture to us. We didn't wait long to get our food either. The place wasn't crowded in fact, it was just us on a Wednesday night but they still had a lot of delivery orders!
The food is super good but I HAVE to remove a star because they don't offer water for free here (??). This would usually be reason enough to give only 1 star but the food is that good, so.
