  • So it turns out that this restaurant is actually Mauritanian, more so than Moroccan or Egyptian. Upon walking in, they ask you to remove your shoes (good thing my sister had warned me). The seats are extremely low and unless you get the side with the wall behind you, there's no back support. The table is also low and in the way of where your legs go. VERY uncomfortable seating! Ladies, don't try to dress glamorously when you visit!! I did like the traditional vibes and tapestries hung on the ceiling. The owner is a tall, loud and beaming man, who bellows "hi, how are you?" with a smile when he spots someone new walking into his restaurant. I like the kind of attention he pays to his diners, but his sense of humour can be a little hard to read at times. As part of the $25 table d'hote menu, they brought out family style lentil soup, hummus, eggplant dip and pita bread for the appetizers. The hummus was too acidic, the pita bread was taken out of a bag and sliced, the eggplant dip was pretty good, and the yellow lentil soup was excellent. *Personally, I would skip the hummus/eggplant dips for the $5 extra each and stick to the soup & tagines for the $20 table d'hote*. They then served us 3 family style tagines with couscous; chicken with confit lemon & olives, beef, and vegetarian. The beef - while the least visually appealing, was the most delicious, with balanced flavours. The chicken was too acidic (though I loved the olives) and the vegetarian was too bland. The tiny bite-sized cake at the end was yummy and flavourful but the tea was WAY too sweet. They should bring the sugar on the side! I really love trying new experiences in Montreal, and while I had a good time, I didn't find the food to be worth $33. Maybe I would go back if I had a Groupon. I totally see why this place is popular if you're craving a unique experience in Montreal. Great place for groups & BYOB!
