I didn't have high expectations when my friend chose this place to hold her birthday and I was happy when it surprised me with their food quality. It's an entertainment dinner style where they bring you food and you watch their belly dancers dance for you. The dancing was great fun and everyone enjoyed themselves. The FOOD however, was pretty delicious!

They started off with this crunchy egg omelet (the brik?) that was filled with potatoes and capers... SO SO GOOD. It was deliciously crunchy with hot, soft potatoes and a tang of capers. We squeezed lemon on it which added a spritz of sourness to it that enhanced the flavor. Sooo good. My friend and I actually ended up eating two of them since there was an extra plate. So happy!

Then they had dips, hummus, and some veggies flavored Tunisian style. Wow. Who knew carrots with orange blossoms would be so delicious? I don't even like carrots and I was inhaling them. So confused with myself. Then, their couscous came out and it was really delicious with the flavoring they added onto it. Yum. I am a fan. However, skip the fish. The lamb and chicken are much better. The cinnamon/sugar dish was alright but I know a few people liked it.

This place is solid in terms of food, service, and fun. I would return again.

They have a lot in an alleyway that was empty because I think no one...

I love coming here and we usually come for birthdays since it is so special to our family. The atmosphere is wonderful as I like to feel like I am transported to another place if I can't actually go there at the time! The people know us and greet us in a very friendly way. Although it looks and sounds exotic, I think the food is not unusual for people who may be a bit timid to eat strange things. They have added to the original feasts so be careful how you pace yourself. The lentil soup is great but I don't finish it. The salads are chopped and most are delicious. They serve hot flatbread (not as flat as some other cultures) to scoop up the salads and grilled lamb. Yum! We get the Moroccan Feast because we love the Bistilla. It is a filo pie with chicken and scrambled eggs, topped with cinnamon and powdered sugar on top. We always forget and wear black so when you try to eat the hot pie and you breathe hard to cool it, the powdered sugar gets all over your top! By the way, someone said they give you wet towels, they do not. They give each person a dry, clean towel before they wash your hands and you use it as a napkin for the rest of the meal and you will need it!

We get the lemon chicken because it is awesome, especially with the bread so ask for more if it is all gone. Then when you think there can't be any more food, they bring out the couscous with stewed vegetables. Fortunately they give you large spoons as fingers just wouldn't do for couscous! We are going there in a few weeks for my twin daughter's birthday celebration,...

ZERO stars. Avoid this place at all costs. Total scam artists. Don't know who is writing these 5 star reviews, must be a scam too. I never write reviews but as a server, I can't let this place get away with this deception.

Came with 1 person. Ordered the Tunisian feast and the Moroccan Feast. Got ONE small plate of Couscous for us to share, with no meat and full of bell peppers. I'm Moroccan, that's not traditional. Didn't get one of our main courses. All the food was cold. The restaurant didn't even smell like food, clearly they make their bland food in the morning. We didn't get a "feast", we shared one plate of awful couscous. The "dessert" was a half a piece of pastry split in two.

Then the bill comes and we pay only to find out the server tacked on a 20% gratuity for our party of TWO. Nowhere on the menu does it indicate they do. I've been a server for over a decade, this is not legal. When I asked the waiter why he did that, he said I was the first person in 40 years of him working at that restaurant to ever question a 20% auto gratuity on a two person party. That type of lie is just appalling. I asked him why it was no where indicated on the menu or what his reasoning was and he kept saying he'll "pass it on to the owners." Instead of offering to take it off the bill, he doubles down and says he'll pass my feedback on to the owners. Pretty sure he might have been the...
