    Had their lunch special chicken with couscous for 19.50. chicken very tender and flavorful, served in clay pot (tagine?) Owner was extremely patient answering our questions regarding ingredients since one member of my party has some food allergies. Owner surprised us with free baklava and a fried twisty (I don't know the proper name). She then served us mint tea but unfortunately we had to leave to catch a train. Would definitely come back! Very minor opportunity to do even better: Only wish the couscous was of the very finely ground variety, but it seems from photos of other restaurants in the area it was the same, so maybe that raw material isn't available in Brussels.

    How glad am I that this charming Morroccan restaurant recently reopened its doors! On Friday this family run restaurant offers delicious couscous, and on other days you can taste excellent tajines. Very friendly service in a homely atmosphere for a very reasonable price!

    The best restaurant in Brussels! It was only two staff, a cook and waitress! But they were flewless mashallah, they worked like bees 😄 Special thanks to Anour and his lovely gifts to my daughter and Narjs for hosting us without a reservation! Many thanks ❤️

    Quite disappointed - came on a Friday afternoon (26 January) and it was closed despite both the door and Google saying it was open. No explanation anywhere. Oh well, lost your chance for a repeat customer.

    Lovely restaurant. Small menu, excellent food. The people were very friendly and helpful, some great English. I had lentil soup which was very tasty, followed by mixed meat and it wad just lovely. Fresh and well prepared.

    Cozy restaurant, amazing food and excellent service. Most dishes are around 12.50€, the food is really tasty, the tea is wonderful, the desserts are definitely worth skipping diet for a day. Its a family business and the waiter is a true gentlemen who speaks a lot of languages and is simply very nice. I am definitely coming back soon

    A tad expensive but worth every penny. Ordered the tagine, and it came with delicious dark bread, a salad and the main. Several tea options, and they kindly gave me another pot on the house. Lovely decorations and a nice relaxing meal, plus wifi. Recommend.

    I had the mixed meat platter and everything in it was excellently cooked and spiced. 💕

    Delicious food and friendly service. The owner (I assume) gave us helpful suggestions on what tea went well with our food choices. He also asked where we were from and shared his very interesting experience in the US and Bermuda. Would definitely recommend if you're spending time in the area.

    I would have never thought that my first trip to Morocco, would be in a restaurant in Brussels, but that is how you feel when you arrive in this extremely authentic restaurant. As a vegan it was nice to have a meal that wasn't a pizza but a varied and tasty plate of Moroccan style vegetables. This is not by any means a vegan place, but they offer one vegan dish, so there is something for everybody. Besides that the owner and Mohammed and his wife are wonderful hosts. Make sure to go there. Tusind tak!

    Hervorragendes marrokanisches Restaurant. Kleine aber feine Speisekarte. Authentisch, frisch und sehr lecker. Für Brüssel auch durchaus preiswert. Bester Service - der Besitzer bedient selber - super freundlich, schnell, aufmerksam und trotzdem relaxed. Klasse!

    As others share, the menu is small, but the food is amazing. Worth a walk and a stop!

    This Moroccan restaurant in Brussel is a must visit. The food is great and the staff professional. The only down side was that the card payment system was broken that evening. But I am pretty sure this was a one time problem.

    The food here was amazing. It is what you would call a “mom & pop” place. The proprietor was very friendly and he helped me understand the dishes easily. Lots of flavor and I found it very authentic. The atmosphere was clean and cozy.
