wonderful service, great decor, yummy food...what more could you ask for? 2/24/2007

This place is an amazing little find, literally. From the outside it looked small but once you enter, there is the bar to you right and a large main dining room in front, and semi-private areas through a curtained arch on your left. The decorations and furniture were absolutely gorgeous; rich bright ornate fabrics and fabriced ceilings. The waiters wre dressed in Morrocan garb or gold vests and spoke to us in French, very sweet. We went there for a birthday so we oredered the $30 celebration menu which was well worth it (it came with soup, fruit and vegetable salad, couscous, choice of chicken/sole/or lamb, a flaky savory sweet traditional dish, almond cookies, mint tea, and a layered chocolate cake slice for the birthday girl complete with a candle. Our hands were washed in warm water before and sprinkled with sweet smelling rose water afterwards. I guess if we hadnt chosen the fixed menu, it would have been more pricey to order a la carte and get the same amount of food do definitely go with that! The owner came out several times to check on us and joke around, it was a very personal, intimate atmosphere. The belly dancer was really talented and so nice, she would go around to each party and urge diners to come up with her, and if they did, she'd show them how to dance. It was a wonderful experience and I dont know how anybody could not have a good time! Make reservations and ask for the semi-private room if you want, also they have parking adjacent to their restaurant. Highly recommended! Pros: atmosphere, decor, parking, service Cons: none! more
