Food was excellent. Services was better. Great place to try Moroccan cuisine with reasonable prices. The wait staff was friendly and all spoke English and French.

Wonderful experience! The place was lovely and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, which made us feel very comfortable. A special thanks to Said — such a respectful, professional, and genuinely nice person. And the pastilla was absolutely amazing, truly one of the best we’ve tried! Highly recommended, and we would definitely come back again

Authentic Moroccan gem, designed like a beautiful riad where every corner is a delight to behold. The food is exceptional, and we were pleasantly surprised by both the presentation and flavors. Their rooftop is stunning, truly a memorable experience.

I only stopped by for a quick snack and only stumbled upon the entrance by accident. It's a hidden gem that's cozy and quite, right next to the buy market. With a stunning interior and view from the rooftop. The pancakes I had seemed a little pricey for what it was, but I didn't mind too much considering the view. Their breakfast formules seemed like a much better deal. For some reason paying was a little difficult and I had to first take a receipt upstairs and then pay downstairs

Found this beautiful hidden gem by complete chance. So so pleased I had my last Moroccan lunch at this place. One of the best tagines I’ve thoroughly enjoyed in all the 5 cities I’ve visited in Morocco. Assortment of salad was also great and refreshing. Pastries and spiced coffee to finish lunch off were also incredible! I loved everything about this place. The gentleman who served us was so attentive, warm and just a truly lovely server. Manager was warm from the moment we entered until we left; making sure we were enjoying our food.

A beautiful surprise in one of our favorite Casablanca neighborhoods. It is very beautiful inside. They also have a rooftop, which was gorgeous. It was great that they had an elevator since we had a baby in a stroller, which was very convenient. Now let me talk about the food: The couscous was 10/10. It was comparable to a homemade dish. Salads were also delicious. Everything we ordered was very tasty. Service could be better as it was slow and felt a bit unorganized. I’m assuming because the restaurant is relatively new. We will definitely be back for brunch during our stay.
