Moroccan Middle Eastern Healthy Couscous Halal

Review Summary

Reviewers describe L'Olive Noire as delivering hearty, authentic Moroccan cuisine with generous portions and prices that many feel are fair given the size of the dishes. Dishes such as lamb and chicken tagines, couscous with merguez, pastilla with almonds, zaalouk, and even dessert like crepe mille trous are repeatedly praised for depth of flavor and careful preparation. The atmosphere is praised as authentic and the service described as warm and attentive, with a welcoming vibe and decor that evokes travel. Several notes emphasize that the restaurant is halal and serves no alcohol, and water sometimes comes with a charge, which is a downside for some. A few reviews mention occasional service slowdowns when the place is busy, occasional miscommunications about dishes, and in one case a perception of unequal service order by gender. Overall, however, the consensus is positive, with many recommending L'Olive Noire for a satisfying, flavorful Moroccan experience and for big portions and hearty meals.View restaurant profile
