Fodor's Review:

Chef Abrache Lahcen of Morocco presents the best cooking of his homeland in this ornate eatery, which looks like something from the set of Casablanca. Your appetizer might be harira, a soup with tomatoes, lentils, and lamb that is traditionally served during Ramadan. From there, move on to the chicken, lamb, or vegetable couscous, Morocco's national dish. A good way to try a bit of everything is the Marrakesh Feast ($35 per person), which includes chicken bastilla and beef brewat (minced beef in a layered pastry dusted with cinnamon and powdered sugar), plus vegetable couscous and assorted Moroccan pastries; or better still, upgrade to the Royal Feast ($38 per person), which includes everything in the Marrakesh Feast, plus crepes for dessert. Traditional belly dancers perform periodically throughout the day in a show that is completely G-rated.

Great entertainment with boring food

Posted by kris10rocks from Nashville, TN on 6/2/08
The belly dancer and sitar player are wonderful and very entertaining. That however is the best part. I found the food to have little flavor and to be quite boring. I was extremely disappointed because Tangierine Cafe, the counter service restaurant has wonderful food. If you want a taste of Morocco I recommend trying that and passing on Restaurant Marrakesh.
