First time and not the last, I tried couscous and bastilla AMAZING, will be back
This restaurant is fantastic! The staff is amazing, and the food is absolutely delicious. It's the best Moroccan cuisine in NYC. I will definitely be coming back for more!
I recently tried Moroccan cuisine for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. The hummus was wonderfully creamy, and both the lamb and chicken Tagine were excellent. We also ordered the beef tangia, which was so tender it practically fell off the bone. We were so eager to dig in that I forgot to take a picture! The prices were very reasonable, and I definitely recommend giving it a try.
There is chicken with green olives and preserved lemons, that classic of the tagine repertory. The olives are more tart than the lemons, which have a fragrance that’s more floral than fruity. Fat, pink shrimp arrive in a bright-red tomato sauce that is very lightly seasoned, apart from fresh cilantro. For cubes of beef liver, the kitchen makes an entirely different tomato sauce, a thick gravy dark with the funk of offal. The spices in it are so closely integrated that you can only guess at their identities. Cinnamon? Paprika? Not everyone likes liver cooked so thoroughly, but if liver is going to be firm and chewy, this is the right kind of sauce for it.
