  • Go for the whole experience, and bring someone worthy of sharing it with you. The food is very good - but the atmosphere is one of a kind. I've been to Marrakech twice now, not many restaurants have blown me away on first impression the way this place has. You won't forget your first time here. The second time, the magic wasn't quite there, however still good, so maybe its a place to go once for a date, but not necessarily often or repeatedly, especially considering the food selection is planned for you and it's always the same. FOOD: The 6 course meal includes a shrimp scampi, a kind of lentil soup, a sampler including humus, dips, olives, and veggies, beef kabobs, a chicken platter, a Moroccan dessert, and hot tea to drink. (There is also an option for vegetarians) All of the food was pretty solid, the shrimp, beef, and humus sampler were my favorites, all 4/5's. And although the food will not disappoint you, what's going on around you is where Marrakech really kills it... ATMOSPHERE: It looks like you're eating in a tent, sitting on low comfortable couch seats, with interesting wall hangings around you, and loud middle-eastern music playing. Warm, refreshing towels are used to wash your hands. A beautiful belly-dancer comes out and really puts on a show. She made my date blush because we were trying to tip her but she wouldn't stop gyrating her hips, so she couldn't get the bills in her waste band. Silverware is optional but they recommend you use your grubby little digits to feed your face. BOTTOM LINE: The place is crazy authentic. Admittedly I've never been to Morocco, so I wouldn't know. Okay, so I've never eaten at another Moroccan restaurant. Whatever. The point is that this is what I would think is totally authentic, and it was really really really cool. I recommend it highly to anyone out there who hasn't yet made this trip, you are totally missing out on a very unique and entertaining experience. NOTES: On one occasion the owner was there and was genuinely concerned about what we thought. It turned out we both grew up in NJ, so I totally Facebook added him. He seems to check in there often. Super, super nice guy. Also, as others have mentioned, there are Groupon discounts available from time to time, so grab that bad boy up if you see it selling. 5 out of 5 stars
