We visited the restaurant as a sizeable group of ten, eager to experience their culinary offerings. Upon arrival, we decided to select the reserved menu set, which is akin to the Japanese omakase style, where the chef selects the dishes. In addition to this set, we ordered two extra entries to ensure a variety of tastes. The ambiance of the restaurant was immediately noticeable – a blend of sophistication and comfort that promised a delightful dining experience. As the courses began to arrive, we were impressed by the presentation and the quality of the food. Each dish was a testament to the chef's skill and attention to detail, offering a harmony of flavors that tantalized our taste buds. However, as the meal progressed, we began to notice a concerning aspect regarding the portion sizes. For a group as large as ours, the quantities seemed disproportionately small. This was particularly noticeable given that the cost was uniform per person. The realization that we were paying the same amount but seemingly receiving less food in comparison to smaller groups felt unjust. This discrepancy in portion size and cost detracted from the overall enjoyment of our meal. To compound matters, the bill presented at the end of the meal included a mandatory 20% gratuity. While we understand and respect the concept of tipping for good service, the compulsory nature of this substantial addition to our bill was an unwelcome surprise. It added to our feeling that the dining experience, though culinarily satisfying, was not entirely equitable in terms of value.

This is an authentic, family-owned Moroccan restaurant with excellent customer service. They begin by graciously washing your hands, and the food delights your palate with rich flavors in every dish. Chicken kebabs are very juicy and tasty. I loved their spicy Tagine of Lamb

A SEATTLE GEM. This place has been around forever, for good reason. The ambiance is so wonderful and the food delicious. Belly dancing makes for a perfect night, so don't miss that if you can. Highly recommended for groups of 4 or more.

Had a phenomenal time. The vibe is unique and made to make you feel like you are un Morocco. The service was amazing! Loved the experience of washing my hands and taking the bread from the banquet. Blessings to the owners and staff of this restaurant.

Great food, ambience, and service. Spicy lamb and lamb with eggplant were great. The entree came with soup, appetizer, dessert, and tea; all of which were tasty! Highly recommended. Parking might be tricky on busy days.

Super amazing. There was a group of us here for a friends graduation and they were able to accommodate us and we were even treated to a belly dance performance. Everything was flavorful, well-seasoned, and the staff were friendly and attentive. Having been to Morocco several years ago, I can attest that the food and flavors were spot on. If I lived in Seattle, this would be a regular spot but I’ll definitely return next time I visit!

Been here a couple of times and left satisfied both the times. A different experience with your hands being washed at your table. Ambience is good and so are the staff and service. For the price on the menu, you would get a salad, a baklava, lentil soup, the main course, milk pudding and mint team. Make sure you have a good appetite while you go here so that you don't waste food :) . I wanted to try the hare dish, but they didn't have it. So I went for the spicy lamb (again) as it is very flavorful. The mixed kabob was also good, which we would rate second of the dishes we ordered and the chicken the third (we aren't fans of meat based dishes which taste sweet). Do order the tagine stuff, the meat just melts in the mouth. My family loved this place.
