I have never tasted Moroccan Cuisine so this was definitely a culinary treat. I think I've sampled as many dishes as I could amongst the family members that I had with me that day. I was able to meet the owner and the Chef that day. Though I have forgotten their names already, but I do remember that they were very engaging and attentive. There was a slight language barrier but in the language of food, it wasn't hard to discern the issue. I've sampled quite a few side dishes and entrees. For the life of me, I don't remember what was ordered but as you can see from the pictures that I have posted, let me tell you in all honesty, it was absolutely delicious! If I were to be in Belgium again when I visit Europe in 2014, I will definitely look for this restaurant again.

They are accommodating, the service is always courteous, the decor is very appealing and the whole experience is enjoyable. Prices are reasonable, many options to choose from (chicken, sausage, meatballs, lamb, shrimp, calamari, salads, cheeses, vegetarian) and good portions, come hungry. They also have a selection of beers and wines. The house red wine was decent, so was the rosé. Last night I really enjoyed their "menu" option. Several options for appetizer, main dish and dessert. I chose the meat brick for appetizer, the meatball tajine as main dish, and a sampler of 3 desserts. Al exquisite and so was the other people's dishes (goat cheese, salad, shrimp and the infamous couscous, yum). Highly recommend and will definitely be back.

We were greeted immediately and were provided excellent service from the get-go. They had a good Belgian beer selection so I ordered local beers. We started with appetizers so many small dishes were brought to the table. I sampled from the mashed chickpeas (tasted different from Hummus) and spinach. For my entrée I ordered the rack of lamb. This was simply the best entrée I had during my visit to Belgium. This was the only dish I had on my trip that was seasoned appropriately with herbs, spices and seasoning. I received outstanding service from start to finish. This was a solid four stars for me. I wasn't interest in most of the menu but was very pleased with my meal.
