I received a flyer for this restaurant from a friend and I was sooo anxious to try it out all week.
Finally Friday was here and the place was packed. Very exciting vibe :-) and everyone looked so happy while eating loll.
It took a long while for the waitress to take our order. But we knew exactly what we wanted. It took another long while for the food to come out. The waitress apologized and we all got free gelato for the unexpected wait. So no hard feelings :-)
Finally our food came out. We ordered lamb cous cous. Kefta kabob sandwich. And the beef and prune tijine (sorry if I mispelled it). However in place of the beef and prune dish, they gave us beef and 5 vegetables...I was excited to try the prune dish, and obviously wasn't expecting the vegetable dish. But no worries - I wanted to try everything anyway. Remember, I memorized the menu from the flyer already :-P
The lamb cous cous was amaaaazing. The lamb was sooo yummy. And it was my first time trying cous cous so I was scared, but pleasantly surprised.
The beef and vegetables were not bad. Not amazing but not bad. The rice it came with was sooo good and my son ate it all up
The beef kefta burger was alright. Something different than most places, better for lunch rather than dinner so my mistake :-p
The Santiago drink was delicious too. So fresh
Overall great restaurant. Well worth the wait. Friendly staff. Owner came to everyone's table and greeted everyone. One of the cooks is a sweet Arab lady who I couldn't understand but was still lovingly speaking to our family.
Can't wait to try all the fruit deserts and crepes!
