What Resto des Arts doesn't like about Arabesque:
The food was unexpectedly bland. For this cuisine, we thought it would be more authentique. The service was attentive, but it’s hard to view it fully when you are disappointed with what is being served. Perhaps a better choice for lunch than for dinner. View all feedback. What Jennifer P likes about Arabesque:
I don’t know where to begin, from the ambiance to the entertainment and the service was exceptional. The food was delicious, the hookah was splendid and the wine was great. I enjoyed my time there. This restaurant was cozy, inviting and attentive. I will definitely be coming back. View all feedback.

The restaurant was almost empty on a Sunday evening so the noise level was quite tolerable and the food and service were quite good

Very fun evening. Good food, great atmosphere with a belly dancer and good Arabic Music. A bit loud as it gets later

Arabesque restaurant offers a diverse dining experience with a mix of opinions from patrons. Some found the food to be unexpectedly bland and lacking in authenticity for Moroccan cuisine, while others were pleasantly surprised by the quality of dishes such as the rack of lamb and tangine. The atmosphere at Arabesque is described as immersive and lively, with entertainment like belly dancing adding to the overall experience. While some reviewers mentioned issues with the sound system and drink quality, overall, it seems that Arabesque has potential to be a great spot for a unique dining experience.

A $9 bottle of wine for $46? Robbery. The really cool room is the smoking room. Explain that.
