About

Maison Marocaine serves authentic North African cuisine centered on slow-cooked tajines and fluffy, hand-rolled couscous. The kitchen prioritizes aromatic spices like saffron, ginger, and turmeric to achieve depth in every savory preparation. Roasted lamb, seasonal vegetables, and preserved lemons feature prominently across the menu to honor traditional preparation techniques. Each dish emphasizes the complexity of Moroccan heritage through careful layering of flavors and textures. The dining room reflects cultural aesthetics through intricate tilework, warm lighting, and traditional brass lanterns that define the spatial atmosphere. Guests experience a focused culinary approach where grains and meats serve as the primary conduits for authentic regional seasoning. This establishment remains a destination for those seeking a direct and uncompromising exploration of classic Maghrebi flavors and standard Moroccan preparation methods.

Service horrible quasiment discriminatoire. Nous sommes arrivé avec deux jeunes enfant & s'est fait virer de bord.

Énorme coup de coeur pour ce petit restaurant! Il faut absolument essayer la tajine au poulet st olives. La nourriture est délicieuse & les portions sont généreuses. Ne vous laissez pas décourager par l'apparence extérieur qui peut avoir l'air peu invitante.

Please read to the end : Avoid this place at all costs! Worst restaurant you can waste your money & stomach on!! They will seduce you to enter with thier loud middle Eastern songs & you will get trapped! Food is not fresh not even hot! Like it was cooked days before! Soggy & tasteless, I would not feed it to an animal. The quantities of the food are shameful! Less than a spoon of everything for high price ! It is a disgrace! I ordered royal tajin & there is nothing royal about it: two pieces of lamp chops & small chicken thigh the upper piece only not even a full thigh!!! Coscous is soggy & wet. They fill your plate with over cooked unflavored carrots & squash in big chunks so you get full but the meat quantity is extremely small. The Harira soup is just brown water & moroccon salad looked & tasted like rotten. After all this bad food, when I came to pay they automatically put the tip in the machine for them selves over 15% they did not even ask me or give me a choice, the owner looked so rude & was watching me to make sure I don't say a word & pay whatever they charge me silently which I did because I did not want to enter a fight with him & ruin my vacation as he looked very savage & he was just standing in the kitchen not cooking,doing nothing, there is no smell or sign of preparing food which confirms that the food is old & not fresh. The restaurant is dirty & the washroom is filthy. We just entered because on Google maps it says that this restaurant is halal, now I even suspect that its halal because they are just a bunch of thieves who will steal your money for soggy tasteless carrots & squash.
