    My wife and I went there for dinner, the food and the customer service was good. The only issue is we were judged in the beginning because I was wearing a short and I was asked a lot of question if I have a reservation and planning to take dinner. Once we mentioned that to the manager Marouane, He apologized for that and he was making sure that everything is good.

    Best place in ALL marrakech, you can taste the greatest cocktails in town thanks to Simo best mixologist alive on this planet. One of the best chef. I highly recommend the Turbot. Music is next level and global atmosphere is from an other planet. Please, please visit.

    We ate here this evening. We’ve been in Morocco for just over two weeks now and have tried many dishes, this was by far, hands down the best meal we’ve had. Not only was the waiter attentive, helpful and refreshing, but the food was absolutely delicious. My partner had the Sea Bream with vegetables and I had the Wok cooked beef with rice, both dishes were amazing and packed full of flavour. Throughout our meal, we enjoyed some cocktails, which again were extremely tasty. Desert really didn’t disappoint, both the cheesecake and chocolate fondant were delicious and well balanced. We would thoroughly recommend this to anyone that hasn’t already tried here.

    It's just overpriced without meaning, the food is not that good, the place is not that good, the service is not that good, no reason for a wok to cost 240Dh

    Everything's perfect: the food, amazing customer service, the decision and ambience... This is a very upbeat with amazing rhythm including live performance (saxophonist, drummer, guitarist and dancers). The way the live performances infuses into the soundtrack the DJ plays is still beyond me - masterpiece. The parking options abound: you can either park on the side roads and pay the local parking attendant a token (5-10 dirhams) or Koya's parking attendant can take your keys and park safely (didn't ask my friend how much extra that cost). Thanks for a vibrant night and exceptional customer service

    Great food, nice ambiance and DJ. Except the waiter looked at my phone and asked if it was the restaurant’s google page I was looking at. When I confirmed, he asked me to leave a review that also included his name and a 5 star rating. And then he watched me do it. I thought it was a little intrusive.

    I attended this restaurant with my family for dinner. The food and service was excellent. My experience was taken to the next level by the manageress Khawla. She was absolutely amazing, so friendly and very professional. She was definitely the star of the night and made sure we had top class service.

    Fantastic place for dinner and very nice people. Our waiters name was Noureddine. 5 of us had dinner. 2 are vegetarians. They suggested fantastic dishes and also made some changes to accommodate the vegetarians. A great experience!

    Too expensive for what it is. Food was basic Asian. They put strong hot AC on and when you leave in winter you get thermal shock, so I got sick leaving the restaurant… I won’t come back and don’t recommend.

    Great atmosphere at this restaurant. We were a party of 12, so the service was a bit slow and over an hour before food came. They have one vegan meal option vegetable wheat noodles which you have to tell them no oyster sauce. The replacement is soy sauce which was a bit salty. Fancy dinning portions as well.

    Sehr leckeres Essen in einer unglaublich schönen Atmosphäre. Der Service ist mehr als zuvorkommend und das Essen schmeckte, egal was man bestellte einfach top. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen. Auch die Livemusik mit Saxophon und Trommel gab der gesamt guten Stimmung unter den Gästen noch mehr Stimmung.

    Great fresh food! Excellent service we dropped by late night they found us a table! We tried few starters and sushi. Everything tasted fresh and nice. They usually have a DJ and it’s a very trendy up vibe spot. But just having the recent earthquake the country is still in mourning. Definitely recommend anyone wanting fresh food quality sushi and pan Asian cuisine to visit.

    We came here to celebrate my husband's birthday. The ambience is modern and nice, the restaurant very large and although it was empty, we were seated into a tiny corner with little light and felt cramped in. The service was friendly and swift but we felt like there were a lot of staff members just standing around, talking to each other and joking around in front of the guest. Of course we were early in the evening but perhaps the staff could have congregated in the back of house while waiting for guests. I generally have no problem with staff standing and waiting but I noticed a few male staff members having fun, grabbing each other and even unbuttoning one team members shirt all the way so he was bare chested for a moment while everyone, him included, laughed and he did not seem in a hurry to close his shirt again. I felt this a little bit out of place in a restaurant where a Sprite cost me 100Dhs (10 Euro)!!! The food was tasty but the portions were too small (we ordered very pricey main curses) and we left the restaurant feeling like we had not had a good meal. At the price we paid, this will definitely NOT entice us to come back. What broke the camel's back though, was that when we got our quite hefty bill, we were told after an unsuccessful try, that the card machine was not working and we should go to the nearby bank ( it was still 38 Degrees Celsius outside) and get cash. I expressed my frustration, causing the team to make an effort and a few minutes later the machine worked again. Things can happen but the way it was brought across to us with very little regret about inconveniencing us, while jus opting for their easiest solution instead of really making an effort to get the machine working, made me dislike the ending of the evening. Unfortunately this restaurant will not really be on my top list of bringing people to.

    We went there after looking at all the photos it looked really good, although when we arrived they seated us in a corner at the side of the kitchen and the staff treated us like we were some beggar, by how they treated us just because we were not in a suit and everything they didn't even care to welcome us.

  • 1/5 Mo H. 10 months ago on Google
    We arrived for our 10 pm reservation and the hostess asked us to wait “for a little bit” at the bar. We figured we would be shown to our table soon, but then realized the entire bar area was packed with other people who were also waiting for their reserved tables. After 45 minutes of waiting, we still did not have a table (despite having a reservation!) and could not even get an estimate of how long it would be. We would have appreciated them just telling us the truth about there being a long wait so we could go elsewhere (we eventually did), but I guess they would rather we buy drinks at the bar before leaving. Very unprofessional.

    Brilliant place. Pricey but worth it. Music is great, food is tasty . Staff are so polite and professional. Highly recommended place to dine out

  • 2/5 NOOR K. 1 year ago on Google
    I really wanted to love this place but sadly I was left disappointed. My dumplings were raw and not at all steamed. The portions were tiny and the drinks expensive. I would say that the ambiance is good and location is very central but I'll give this a miss next time I'm in town

  • 5/5 Louis B. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing meal. I live in Vancouver where sushi is abundant, but this is one of the best sushi places I have ever been to in the world. If you're up for a lively atmosphere, this is a great place. However, it's very loud so not the place to have any kind of conversation.

    Easily the best sushi in Marrakech - it's a bit pricey, but it's seriously delicious.

    Located at the heart of Hivernage, the most vivid neighborhood of Marrakech by night, Koya offers a wide range of Asian dishes. We can sense that the menu has been studied to differentiate itself from other places in town. Prices are quite higher that elsewhere so the bar is understandably set high. The restaurant is nicely decorated, attention has been paid to the details and the job has been well done : it's neither too much nor too posh. The result looks classy and cosy, the blend is perfect. The staff was very welcoming and friendly, attended our table in time and in a proper manner. Finally the food was absolutely delicious. We were a large party so we had the chance to order a bit of each items. From the angus beef to the codfish, not to forget the chicken, it was quite a delight for the eyes and the mouth. It's definitely a good place to taste original or classic Asian cuisine, well done to the team !

    The decor is interesting but only half way. The food is mediocre for the price, as are the cocktails. The service is professional and welcoming. I am a smoker since 20 years and i found it disgusting to try and eat my dinner with clouds of smoke wafting in my face. There was no nonsmoker section, and our efforts to get the least amount of smoke were hopeless

    First! Let’s start with the beautiful Khawla, the manager who took care of my party of 26 with only 24 hour notice! The food, the ambiance, the staff -- everything was amazing!!!
