I’ll start off with the positives: The food is solid. Flavors are good. Portions are generous. Great variety of selection. If I didn’t already have travelers tummy, I would’ve tried camel burger. We got Indian veggie curry, harira soup, chicken chawarma, and veggie pasta (I asked for a little meat). We ordered detox, ginger lemonade, banana smoothie, and a bottled drink too. The drinks they made are tasty. The decor is nice. Negatives: It is extremely small. Calling it a box is pretty accurate. We went last night so it is 100+ degrees in Fes right now. The second floor was just a sauna. We opted to sit downstairs with ac but a large group went upstairs. The bathroom is also upstairs and my friend went to use it and came back looking like she went swimming. Service is very much lacking. The waitress took our orders and came back with food and we were never able to get her attention after that. She forgot my husband’s bottled drink and the fridge was next to us so after 20 minutes (food had come) he got up and asked the male waiter if he could just grab it from the fridge. That man asked my husband 3x if he had ordered it. Even if he didn’t, could’ve just gone over the three steps to add it in after asking the waiter. It was very condescending, like we were trying to steal drinks. Our group of 4 were pretty annoyed after that.

We had our favourite meals in Morocco here. We were looking for something healthy and ended up here based on reviews. The place didn’t disappoint! We came here twice. Food - generous portions, great flavours, healthy mix of greens and proteins too. They serve a mix of Moroccan and non-moroccan dishes, in case you need a break from Tajines. They warmed the bread as pictured, which was amazing when dipped in the mushroom sauce. Drinks - freshly blended juices! Otherwise, water is reasonably priced compared to other restaurants in the area Service - 10/10. The waitress who served us was very nice. Food came in a reasonable time. The place - airy if you choose to sit in the main area (the second floor had very low ceiling), and had a very clean bathroom. Strong wifi.

We stumped up on Culture Box after long day in Fez. Loved the unique decor, music and over ambient of culture box. There are many vegetarian/gluten free options. We had ordered vegetarian couscous and veg pastilla, let me tell you, it was phenomenal, fresh, flavorful. We topped it off with Tiramisu, which was just as good, not so sweet, the way I like it. Pretty reasonable price range. If you’re looking for clean, fresh, casual Moroccan food with whole lot of other twist- pizza, pasta, burger, falafel, sandwiches, salad then this is your place! Definitely check it out!! Centrally located near blue gate.

El Culture Box es ecléctico en todos sus aspectos,quiere ser restaurante,bar y cafe al mismo tiempo,pretende fusionar platos italianos,franceses,marroquíes,asiáticos,de Medio Oriente y hasta se atreve con el Gazpacho andaluz.El ambiente oscila entre lo clásico y lo moderno,decoran con discos de vinilo,libros,artesanías y antigüedades. Esta mezcla puede llegar a funcionar en ciertos aspectos pero donde fracasa rotundamente es en la gastronomía. Hacer una pizza con queso Cheddar, una pasta Carbonara con crema de leche,jamón de pavo y champignones o ponerle queso a una pasta con mariscos son burradas que burlan la cocina de un país. Tampoco aciertan en las comidas que pueden estar más cerca de su identidad,es el caso del bocadillo de pan labash y falafel. Este "panino",es así como lo llaman,resultó un desastre,el falafel estaba pésimo,muy seco y de color verde debido a que el 75 % de la masa era perejil,sin embargo el ingrediente principal,el garbanzo no estaba presente,tampoco las especias como el comino.Para completar el despropósito para aderezar el falafel en lugar de hummus o de la tradicional salsa de yogur ponen un sobre de ketchup!! Y los vegetales en juliana son suplantados por una hoja de lechuga.Lo sirvieron con una pequeña ración de patatas fritas industriales,de las congeladas y ni siquiera estaban crujientes. Fallaron también con el postre,las pastas típicas marroquíes,7 unidades pequeñas diferentes en el aspecto pero todas con el mismo sabor,el del azúcar. Ante mi reclamo por el falafel,el camarero se lo llevó al cocinero,vi que lo probaron y al volver reconoció que no estaba bien hecho, no lo cobraron. Pagamos por las pastas dulces,dos cafés americanos y 1 refresco aproximadamente 7 euros. No sirven bebidas alcohólicas.

I visited Fez in January from the US and had an incredible experience dining at Culture Box! The staff were exceptionally friendly, the restaurant was spotless, and the food was absolutely delicious. I tried the camel tagine and fresh mint lemonade, both of which were outstanding. They even kindly let me take my lemonade to-go so I could enjoy it throughout the day. With a menu offering dishes from a variety of cuisines, there’s truly something for everyone. I was so impressed that we returned the very next day! 10/10 – highly recommend! Pictured is the camel tagine.

Delicious meals. Kefta tangine was perfectly tangy and the meatballs were tender. Chicken shawarma — most tender chicken i had in Fes, delicious. Indian curry was alright, other two were better. For dessert, they sadly ran out of tiramisu and cheesecake, so we had the chocolate mousse. Decadent and rich, a bit thicker than I’d like but if you’re a chocolate lover it’s perfect. Service was a little slow with some hiccups but it was a busy night and the staff were aware and apologised so I’m not docking any points. Friendly and professional 👍🏽 Would come again
