Our lamb tajine arrived steaming hot & smelled incredible. The meat was beautifully tender & the sauce had so much depth. I'd order it again without hesitation.

That lamb tajine! Tender enough to fall apart with a fork & packed with beautiful spices. Easily the highlight of our dinner.

If you love lamb, try the tajine. Tender, flavorful, aromatic & beautifully cooked. It was easily my favorite dish of the night.

Nice terrace seating, excellent ambiance with music you feel like on a garden surrounded with flowers all over. Excellent couscous royal with lamb shank, chicken & merguez. We had to take the leftovers home as it was a generous portion. We were tempted by the tie dessert menu & we took the Kunafa & the birouates along with the mint green tea. A must try in Montreal.
