I wasn't sure what to expect going in. The storefront is small. It's a little dark going in. The counter is full of fresh baked goods. I had a cashew square. I don't remember the actual name. I also ordered a chicken kabob sandwich. My husband had the baba ganoush sandwich. We did order an appetizer too the spinach feta pie, also delightful. They were both incredible! Definitely the top ten sandwiches we've had. We sat outside and people watched as we ate. It really was a perfect lunch experience. I highly recommend it.
This place is the gem of north Hampton and probably all the five college area. The food here is fresh and delicious. The staffs here are nice and friendly. There is even some snacks to munch while you wait. The mint tea here is so nice and refreshing. It's more of a order your own food and bring your dishes once you are done
Just wow! Food is amazing!!! Service is superb, and the prices are fair. The best Moroccan food I ever ate in the USA ( I’m from Israel and my dad is Moroccan) will definitely come again for more shawarma and Harrirra Soup
The best Mediterranean food around.. I drive an hour to come here every chance I get. Great prices, authentic food. A table of 8 was easily accommodated and with plenty of food and drink for less than 150. Speaks for itself. 2025 update! Every time I come here it’s an amazing night. The staff is so friendly. The food is served fresh and fast, I’m about as far from vegan as one could be but the Royal Feast that is a vegan dish is the only thing I get here anymore. Truly delicious and amazing food!
Delicious food, not expensive. A real morocan food in downtown. Simple place but have everything. They also have vegetarian and vegan options. Perfect place to go by yourself, with friends, family or your special one. They also make to go, a option with you have no time.
Excellent food for unbeatable prices. You simply don’t find food this good at their prices. Tea is delicious too.
Reeeally good Mediterranean food. Also a cool vibe- studied in here for a couple of hours
The two workers were very kind and welcoming to me. The environment is cozy and fun, wonderful place to go with friends or alone to settle in and read. They have a great mix of foods for anyone to enjoy, which is great as my family has dietary restrictions. Great place and sweet staff!!
