A little piece of Morocco nestled into Mamaroneck. The authentic decor from Morocco and traditional recipe preparation added to the flavors of the atmosphere. Went on a quiet afternoon where I cuddled inside a banquette filled with hand stitched pillows and a glass of sweet Moroccan wine. The lamb we ordered over a bed of couscous was cooked to perfection. Desserts were interesting and different with fruits, cinnamon and berry drizzles.

This was by far the worst Moroccan food we've ever had, and we've been to Moroccan food establishments all over the world! The couscous was stale and submerged in a tasteless, watery broth. The chicken was dry and the lemony sauce was over-empowering. Instead of the usual olive oil drops in the soup, they had some very oily, orange substance covering the lentil puree. Skimpy portions. We were the only people there between 6-7 on a Sat night!

Had an utterly delicious meal here today. WE had a very refreshing black and mint tea, very lightly sweeted, served in an authentic moroccan tea pot. Crispy and delectable vegetable cigars were more-ish in the extreme. Perfectly cooked snapper in a ragout of tomato, onion and pepper was gorgeous. Wish I could have had much more of everything! Dessert also tasty, decor is gorgeous, loved all the beautiful plates and glasses. Great!

Go for the early bird special - but make sure to arrive in time to place your order by 7. Otherwise, very expensive

Inconsistent but never less than good cuisine. Frequently excellent and check out the belly-dancer! Local artists' work is exhibited.

This is a solid restaurant that even manages to do something interesting with french fries. Parking is a pain, but I love to go here. The decor makes me feel transported to Marrakesh.

Pleasant Moroccan. We enjoyed brunch and would go back to explore the rest of the menu.

Decor is great. Food is very good or excellent. Service is usually very good or excellent, but variable.
