Banger! Totally unexpected banger discovered. Tucked away in a non descript part of barsha is this authentic moroccan restaurant which is excellent. The food is very good. Service is ok, nothing great not bad. The ambience is excellent. We had the chicken and lamb tajine both were outstanding. Reasonably priced as well. Recommended.

Nice Moroccon food. Went to try out new cuisine. The staff helped out with the menu. Every was super tasty and fresh. Normal ambience. Pretty clean. Outside seating as well. Kebabs are not the usual Arabic style. Less Spicy . Lamb meat was different. If you care for the smell..don't try out.

I had an incredible experience at this Moroccan restaurant! The Boulfaf was perfectly grilled, with rich flavors and tender meat—it was absolutely delicious. The spices were just right, making it one of my favorite dishes. The atmosphere was cozy, and the service was excellent, with the staff being attentive and welcoming. I highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic Moroccan cuisine, especially the Boulfaf

It's time to give a review for this restaurant. This is our fourth order since June 2022. 1 - Barsha delivery 2- Take away order 3 & 4 - D2 delivery Authentic Moroccan food and it is nice. I’m just happy that they do delivery to D2. *I prefer to order not in rush hour or no traffic so my food is still fresh and hot. I always order meat with prunes

The food experience is amazing. Taste like traditional morocoan food when you cook at home. Presentation of food looks nice and cozy. Don't miss the basic traditional dishes Koskosi taste like home food especially with its soup Tajin is very special traditional taste Meat Tajin was the best dish especially when you dip the bread in its sauce mixed with onions and almonds give you the full experience Bastila with fish and sea food was good but a bit spicy and has many spices so avoid ordering it if you don't eat spicy food but you can try the one with chicken Even salads presentation looks nice And of course, don't miss the morocoan tea before and after food. Staff is friendly and serve you in the best was despite many orders load The restaurant is not big but has nice vibes with their friendly staff They have some morocoan traditional products and groceries also.
