Reviews

  • Turned up at nine on a Saturday on the off chance and got seated in ten minutes. The Moutabal is the one thing I would not let them take off the menu. Parking anywhere near it is a nightmare, which is hardly their fault.

  • Neighbours had talked about it for a year. They were not exaggerating. Ordered the Tabbouleh because the couple beside us had, and thanked them on the way out. The sort of place you hope stays exactly as it is.

  • We booked the early sitting so the children could come, and nobody minded them. The Kibbeh tastes like it was made by someone rather than assembled. For Marrakech prices this is close to a bargain.
