| - My co-workers and I decided to visit this restaurant for our ladies' night dinner. We had no problem finding it, however there wasn't a ton of parking and we ended up parking on a side street... no problem really.
We were seated in our own private room/tent, very cozy with lots of pillows and bench seating. The music was fun and set the mood, and the lighting was perfect. Our waiter promptly came by and introduced himself.
Although I can't remember his name, I must say he has been one of the best waiters I've ever had. He was a younger gentleman, very pleasant, courteous, and knowledgeable. He went through the menu with us and explained each course and what to expect. It was nice as none of us had been there before and we weren't sure what to order. We all agreed on the Moroccan Mint Tea, which was SO GOOD!
Before our meal was served, the waiter brought a basin and poured warm water over our hands so we could wash before eating. What a treat!!
We all ended up getting the Sultaness Feast, with different mains and appies. I had the soup to start, which was the perfect temperature and texture. We didn't have utensils, and I was happy to sip it straight from the bowl. The other ladies in the group had the salad, which seemed a little more difficult to eat without utensils, but once we figured out how to scoop it up with the bread all was good.
I had the B'Stilla Royale for my appetizer, and was simply scrumptious with a mixture of sweet, spicy, and savoury flavours.
My main was the Vegetable Tagine, which was slightly spicy with fresh cooked peppers, tomatoes, and other yummy vegetables.
Dessert was the Braewat, similar to Baklava but not as sweet. Totally to die for!!!
I would definitely come back here! The food was delicious and fresh, and very unique. It was also fun to eat with our hands once we got the hang of it.
If you are in a hurry, then this isn't the place to go. Our meal lasted 3 hours, but we honestly didn't notice the time as we enjoyed each course and each other's company.
