this place is undeniably cute, the garden is quite a rare find, an oasis of sorts. the staff are very sweet but seem overwhelmed to the point of giving us the wrong food and being tardy about it. once it came it was very tasty, but mezze are small so order them as a starter only then go for a main. the mergues were succulent, the pitta and accompanying oil were scrummy (although it was odd that the same oil was served with the edamame??!). the yam frites were simultaneously crunchy and gooey with lots of dipping sauces. do they need to include (expensive and not that tasty) kosher wine? perhaps a broader spectrum of world wines would be more appropriate for an other worldly setting. slightly cumbersome first experience for us but I would go back and happily try it again with this experience under my belt.

Pros: the setting

Cons: the confused service

great place, authentic food, great atmosphere and beautiful decor. The most beautiful garden I ever saw for a restaurant. My friend and I shared few mezze, the goat cheese and spinash cigar, delicious, the merguez, tender and juicy, the best i ever had, and the egg plant salad, divine. we had a couscous royal and a chicken tagine, impressing for a first morroccan experience. The wait staff was very friendly and the service was fast, our waitress was very nice and was great in her description of the menu. Definitively our next spot in the neighborhood.
