Marakesh was an amazing experience. From the delicious kabobs and rice, to the tender lamb. Dinner was finished with Moroccan tea and desserts. The service was impeccable and the belly dancer show just added to the charisma of the restaurant. I could not recommend this place more. Mashallah what a great place!

Eating at Marrakesh was an amazing experience! The owner and chef, Abdul, was inviting and incredibly hospitable. The food was absolutely delicious, and the ambiance made for such a memorable meal. It's perfect for big parties and unique celebrations, as well as for a warm mint tea and relaxing meal. I will be returning and would highly recommend it!

This restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment my friends and I walked through the door, we were greeted with such warmth and hospitality that it immediately set the tone for a fantastic evening. We were all eager to try Moroccan cuisine for the first time, and Marakesh did not disappoint. Even though each dish was bursting with flavors that were completely new to our taste buds, I personally feel like they could’ve improved on the flavors. The chicken was really great. The salmon was OK, It definitely needed more seasoning. The lamb was good and we loved the fact that it fell right off the bone. The rice was bland and too soft. It literally tasted like those easy cook microwave rice’s.The staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had a wonderful experience. They were so attentive and friendly, making us feel like valued guests throughout the entire meal. And the dance performance? It was truly mesmerizing! We couldn't take our eyes off the performer as she brought an extra element of excitement to our evening.Leaving Marakesh, we were all beaming with smiles and feeling incredibly satisfied. It was one of those rare dining experiences where everything – the food, the service, the atmosphere – exceeded our expectations. I can't wait to go back and enjoy another unforgettable meal at Marakesh restaurant.PSA:- This is a reservation only restaurant. So, please don’t forget to book your reservation before visiting.- They only offer a fixed menu but you’re able to order other meats for a full charge.

Had the absolute best time at Marakesh!! The food was so delicious and it just kept coming! The falafel was perfectly crispy and moist and the chicken and lamb were a crowd favorite. The babba and hummus to start were some of the best I’ve had. The entire staff from the waiter/waitresses to the chefs were all extremely nice, welcoming, and attentive and made sure we had the best time. We loved the mint tea to end the meal!! Come for the food and stay for the belly dancers who were so fun and engaging and got the crowd up to dance! Cannot wait to go back!!!!

Marrakesh was such a great experience for the food to the belly dancing to the wait staff - everything was 12/10! Can’t wait to come back!Saving room for dessert is quite the feat, but you must - the chocolate hazelnut cake and the baklava were to die for!!!

My partner and I went here for a night out and it was by far one of the best restaurants I’ve been to :)!We came on a Friday for the belly dancing show during the dinner (book for 7:30pm if you wanna have dinner during that), and the dancer was very interactive with the crowd which was a pleasant surprise! The atmosphere was great - very authentic decorations. The restaurant seating was set up like a real Moroccan home, which couches along the walls.The service was some of the best I’ve received at a restaurant. Our server was very kind and very accommodating. My partner is allergic to nuts and mustard seed, and despite our waiter taking care of so many people and even taking orders during, she still noticed that a dish contained nuts and immediately had them redo the dish. Also, my partner is vegetarian and I’m not, and she allowed us to mix and match the vegetarian options for the Sultan’s Table dinner (they have a fixed menu for weekends) which was very kind!The portions were very good! We had 4 appetizers: Garden salad (dressing was DELICIOUS), veggie Moroccan cigars, Mediterranean dip with pita bread, and dolma. All were amazing. For entrees: Falafel platter and lamb tagine. Both were great and very well portioned. At the end, we also got the Moroccan mint teaFor 2 people for the Sultan’s Table did Ed menu dinner, the belly dancing show fee, and 20% gratitude added automatically, the total came out to about $134. Very well worth the price! It was amazing!!! I will definitely becoming again. If you want a taste of Morocco, I highly recommend coming on a Friday or Saturday night! 10/10!

Very limited menu. Everything is a set menu No variety. Food is very pricey for the quantity, quality and tasteI had been looking forward to dine at this place since I heard of it about 4-5 months back. I was very disappointed. That's the first n last time. Never again.
