Authentic Moroccan cuisine in the heart of Columbus. Tajine House is one of the many food vendors located inside the North Market. The chicken tajine is expertly seasoned. Get it over a bed of fluffy turmeric basmati rice or pillowy couscous. There are many fantastic cold salad sides. It's always hard to pick just two! If you aren't quite sure, the wait-staff is patient and willing to give a small tasting sample. Your meal is wrapped to-go. Take it with you or head upstairs to the seating area. read more

Tajine House Columbus - Chicken Tajine, rice, Cucumber Salad, Cauliflower - Moroccan Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

My Yelp CM from out west saw that I was here and recommended this stand. As usual he got it right. The food here was incredible. Today we tried the Chicken Tajine and the Paella, which came with Couscous, rice and a Beet Salad. Turns out I'm a fan of the Moroccan cuisine! The staff were super, too! Very friendly and patient. I guess it's easy to tell if someone has never been here. They made me feel like a regular. From now on I will be. They are also great about letting you sample. It would be terrible to buy a huge helping and not like it (I've tasted most everything and don't think it possible). 08/24 read more

Tajine House Columbus - Marquee - Moroccan Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

One meat and two side combo. $15.99. Grabbed chicken meatballs, pepper curry and tomato and cucumber cold side. The chicken meatballs are pretty good, not too dry. Curry sauce is yummy. The peppers are flavorful, not warm at all though. The tomato cucumber salad tastes pretty good, just a bit mushy, the cucumbers that is. read more

It was my first time trying Morrocan food. Everything was delicious. I picked out Morrocan kafta, chicken tajine, potato salad, cauliflower salad, rice, and couscous. Couple of these items may not be there anymore but honestly you can't go wrong with any of the options. The employee was very helpful. read more

While trying to make the most of my Staycation, I was in search of something different to eat so I popped into the North Market to see if there was anything that caught my eye. I was about to leave when I noticed a new spot serving up some Moroccan cuisine - Tajine House. The lady working the spot was super nice and helpful in helping me decided on what to try. After picking out some items to fill my plate, I paid and headed home to enjoy my food. I thought the food tasted fresh and packed with flavor. I will definitely be back! read more

The whole group of us decided to order something from individual places and then sit together and share family style. Someone else was getting the soul food, so I decided to get something else vegetarian. I had no idea what I was doing. She said she liked the eggplant and beets from Tajine House. So, I decided to go for it. I awkwardly asked for a small tray of those two items. Instead, the man behind the counter asked if I would like a veggie plate. He loaded up a tray filled with every vegetarian option available. Everything was just so, so good. There was enough for me to share and take some with me for dinner at the airport the next day! read more

Stopped by Tajine this morning for brunch and requested several dishes, including beef, rice, peppers, carrots, beets, and some hot sauce. The food was fresh and served quickly. My meal was $18 and was delicious. I'll visit again and try to more next time I'm in Columbus. read more

Came to North Market for the first time and was so pleasantly surprised by the diverse food options and plentiful seating. We decided to try Tajine House, and it was really, really good! The flavors were super unique and tasted great. Even the rice alone tasted good. The beef was served hot and they gave generous portions. The sides were served cold but were full of flavor. The cucumber tomato salad was very refreshing! The eggplant was also very flavorful and unlike anything I've had before. There was a tiny hint of bitterness in it, though, which made it not as great as the other food we got. The food was a little expensive, but I think the portion size reflected the high price. So no real complaints honestly! read more

Tajine House Columbus - Beef, Cucumber Salad, eggplant - Moroccan Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

The North Market Downtown in Columbus, Ohio is home to many delicious food vendors. I have seen traditional Italian, Polish, ice cream, burgers, pizza, Mexican, a few Indian and vegan options, even Somalian. In this sea of variety I could only choose one thing unfortunately, so I went with Moroccan. The guy who owns this spot is very nice, and took the time to explain every item I saw. At the end of the day I couldn't say no to those lamb shanks. I got that with a side of couscous, cucumber salad and taktouka (chilled tomato with roasted pepper). It was absolutely amazing. I couldn't believe how tender this lamb was, it was practically falling off the bone. I didn't finish it all cause it was so much food, so I brought it home to finish with my wife. Love food markets, and if you happen to be driving to or through Columbus I can't recommend it enough read more

Tried this place while at the north market recently. It is a new establishment to me and I was excited to try it. It features Moroccan dishes with a variety of different proteins (lamb, chicken, salmon), grains (basmati rice and couscous), and veggies (eggplant, carrots, cauliflower, salads). I ordered the basmati rice, salmon, eggplant, and cauliflower for about $18. There was plenty of food and I split it with my girlfriend. We both loved the salmon and basmati rice. The eggplant had good flavor but was a little oily. The cauliflower was okay, but not our favorite thing we tried. Overall we were very pleased and would easily eat here again! read more

Pricy, small portioned, flourless, watered down, underwhelming...I love Moroccan food but this place is not it. Nothing about it was worth it. read more

I am new to Moroccan food, so I decided to give this place a try when I was at North Market. I ordered the chicken meatballs with half couscous and half rice. As sides, I got the cauliflower and the cucumber & tomato salad. I was really struck by the price, $17.99 total (without tip). Maybe I should expect that, since it is in downtown Columbus after all. I was able to get two full meals out of what I received. The chicken meatballs were huge (larger than golf balls) and flavorful, and the rice and couscous were terrific! I was not a fan of the cauliflower side, but I loved the cucumber & tomato side. I think maybe Moroccan food just isn't for me, and that's ok. The staff was extremely patient and helpful, as this was my first time ordering Moroccan. If you like this type of food, I would definitely recommend them! read more

I absolutely love Moroccan food and was elated to try out Tajine House. I was a bit bummed on the food flavors - I wish they were heightened/more pronounced. I know that Morocco traditionally uses a lot of cardamom, ginger and saffron, and I wish those spices stood out even more. The chicken was great - tender - and pared well with the regular small couscous. I could pull out the cardamom and ginger, just wish it had more pow!5 I liked all three sides I got - eggplant salad, tomato salad, and chilled carrots - and would definitely get again. I'd buy both salads bulk; they'd be great on their own with baked chicken thighs or salmon. I'm really glad there's now a second Moroccan restaurant in Columbus, as that's one ethnicity we are sorely lacking, imo. A little more oomph in the spices department, however, would definitely give the food a great boost. read more

This was the reason we went to North Market. My Friend and I love Morrocan food and knew we had to check this place out. Luckily we entered at the right corner they were the first thing we saw. This was a delightful experience and enjoyed getting a mixture of food so we could try them all. read more

Unfortunately this was my least favorite meal during my visit to Columbus. While service was quick, I found the price to be a bit high for what I got. The sauce and marinades were also on the salty side, and the fish was terribly overcooked. read more

Wow, really good food. Got a combo with chicken, beef. Side of spinach and cucumber salad. Mint tea is off the hook. Support this place!! read more

Had the Lamb Shank, with cous cous, saffron rice, eggplant side dish, beet side dish. WOW! So delicious.

Absolutely delicious and varied dishes that are all so appetizing! The owner and attendants are welcoming and kind. There is such a wonderful quality and generosity in the Moroccan food they craft--and no commercial smiles, just deeply honest, authentic delicacies and natural demeanor, food for the body and the soul. This is so needed in our times! This meal was one of the highlights of our short trip to Columbus. Un grand merci à vous tous, Choukran, Tajine House. Nous vous serons fidèles, quel plaisir de vous connaître ! read more

Food was decent, but both my wife and I got food poisoning from the food here. We ate there at 6p, so probably wise to avoid later hours when food has been sitting out all day. read more

I don't even know where to start. This place was amazing, the lamb shank, the meatballs, the couscous. Everything was amazing. If you're in Columbus get to the North Market and try this place. read more

Via my family I have roots in North Africa, so although I grew up in the U.S., I grew up eating true cous cous, tajine, maaqouda, bourek, etc. Tajine House is a superb place to get authentic North African food. Moreover, it is prepared with a zest for life and a joy to share Moroccan culture. Not all ethnic restaurants do this so well. Go today, and share the delight with your family and friends! read more
