The food was great, the cocktails were average.
Would not recommend sitting at the bar, not comfortable at all.View more

Stopped by without a reservation on a Saturday night after an event. Luckily got some seats at the bar. The service was amazing & the food was impeccable. Mikey was awesome & the atmosphere & decor of the place doesn't shy away either. Mikey also owns the one of the kind banhmi place next door which holds a special place in my heart. You can tell much thought was put into every aspect of the place - the food, the music, the decor, the service. The drinks were also cool! Would recommend trying the hot & heavy.View more

In short, highly recommend : easy 4.5. FOOD Started with the artichoke dip. Safe to say that it was the best I had ever had. Chunky , flavourful & delicious. Could have eaten 3 of them. Mom ordered the Moroccan couscous, which had raisins, slivered almonds, walnuts & some other vegetables, with some humous on top. She found each bite to have a different flavour, but would have like there to be more vegetables. Presentation was beautiful. My partner ordered the fish balls & they were cooked to perfection. Soft & tender with a tomatoey sauce. I personally found it a little bland, but he loved it. I ordered the chicken pastillo & it was easily the winner of the night. Flaky, moist with rich flavours & the most delicious combination of ingredients. Perfect proportion size for me. Also incredible presentation. Swear I could eat that 4 times a week. Another highlight, was their slightly spicy & salty homemade sauce. It paired well with EVERYTHING : the artichoke tip, the couscous, the pastillo & the fishballs. I would love to see it available for purchase in jars. Order the MSEMEN for dessert & it was okay.The size was too big for one person, & I felt like it could have used some vanilla ice cream, of apple slices, or a coffee. SERVICE Cannot speak highly enough of the server : super attentive without being invasive. Friendly, authentic & prompt. Great personality that shined through her service & her style. Easily one of the best service experiences I have had in a long time (& I use to be a server). AMBIANCE Comfortable seating with clean tables & amble space. Interesting & engaging decor. I found the music a bit loud (we were right under the speaker & I am slightly hearing impaired). Overall I really enjoyed my first experience & will be returning hopefully soon - especially if they get coffee & star selling the special sauce in jars ;).View more

Fantastic Moroccan-inspired cuisine with lovely service & a very enthusiastic, engaging chef (maybe the owner, too?) Highly recommend trying as many dishes as possible, all of them are unique & flavorful. Limited seating but if you're ok with the bar (which is right next to the chefs cooking) the vibes are great. Definitely coming back soon!View more

Very cute & lowkey bistro in the Mile-End with incredible Moroccan inspired dishes. I & my sister had the Moroccan couscous & hummus. Everything we tried was amazingly delicious & absolutely flavourful. The staff were friendly & we liked the atmosphere when it wasn't crowded. Highly recommend the couscous & hummus!View more

Food was excellent. Service was excellent. Highly recommend for smaller groups as the place is on the smaller side. Need a reservation for bigger groups. Cannot go wrong with any item on the menu.View more
