    Lovely atmosphere and cultural experience. The waiter/owner was a great host and all aspects of the 5 course meal were delicious.

    If you want an experience, this is the place to go. There are some reviewers here who don’t understand what this restaurant is. If you want to order off menu, this might not be the place for you, but if you’re ready for a unique cultural experience and a delightful host then you’re in for a great night. Bring cash - it does seem that there likely is no credit machine as many reviews have said the same thing we experienced at the end of our meal. The price for two five course dinners served on literal silver platters was so reasonable and fair. We left full and content. Yes the food was warmed, but the food is prepared by a chef that comes in who has worked in this restaurant for over 20 years. Many restaurants warm their food, that’s really normal in this industry. All the decor was imported from Morocco over 20 years ago. The owner serves with a smile and a million stories. We left with full bellies and a new friend.

    Very homey experience. We showed up kind of late and were welcomed in with open arms. It's not your traditional American restaurant experience, so go in with an open mind. The food was great and the man in charge is very kind

    I have been coming here since I was around 10! That has been over 15 years! Food is fantastic, costs are reasonable for 5 courses, the difference in flavors are amazing, and the atmosphere is so relaxing that my husband and I got married there! It was amazing! There wasn't a crazy restaurant atmosphere and we enjoyed a quiet and relaxing dinner with our marriage! My husband says it's the best baklava he's had, hands down. I HIGHLY recommend it to everyone for a fun dinner you'll share with anyone traveling in!
