While in Paris, my husband and I were looking for a good place for couscous, and this restaurant…read moreended up being perfect! The atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant, our waiter was very friendly and professional. We started with vegetable Briouats, small crisp triangles, yummy. The couscous was the star of the evening, one of the best I've ever had (the Prince for my husband, merguez for me). The portions were very generous and we were wondering if we should have shared one. Still, I couldn't resist the Pastilla for dessert, light layers of phillo, amazing. Next time I come back to Paris, I'll know where to go for a great couscous!

They have a very extensive menu, complete with Moroccan wine options. They are vegetarian-friendly and are happy to help you understand the menu. The service was outstanding and we LOVED the food! We saw many local families eating here, which told me that we chose the right place. I am so happy that we visited, and hope to find some good Moroccan food in the US now that we know how amazing it is!

Wife's 27 euro chicken couscous came with chicken drumstick, thigh, and part of a chicken breast on one plate, soup with vegetables on a second plate, and garbanzo beans and vegetables on third plate. My 35 euro lamb with rice plate came with a mixed rice and a huge 16 ounce slab of juicy lamb, one of the biggest pieces of lamb that I've seen served anywhere. If I had to do it again, I would order the lamb tajines, with a smaller portion of lamb mixed with apricots, raisins. They charged 11 euros for salad, and 6 euros for bottled water, bringin the total to 79 euros or $93.52. All that was missing was the belly dancers to make up for a memorable evening

Portions were really good and everything was super tasty. Not the absolute best food I've ever had, but I was not disappointed. Staff here are quite friendly. Even though they don't all speak English, they are very nice and helpful. And yes, they do have English menus at least. Really enjoyed Essaouira, glad I made the trip here.

He was the only server and there were several tables full and everything ran so smoothly! I'm impressed with his skills! We ordered a sampler plate to start and it had sausages, lamb, olives, eggplant, pimentos, and a cucumber relish. It was great, but in the future I probably would not order this, because the entree portions are huge. For our meal, we ordered couscous with lamb shank and lamb with exotic fruits. Both of these dishes were to die for! I want to go back already! The exotic fruits were: apricots, prune and figs. The decor was so beautiful, I felt like I was in Morocco! Please do yourself a favor and try out this lovely, fresh and authentic restaurant.

Once you placed your order, they serve you traditional Moroccan Maghrebi mint tea. I liked how they put on a lil show when pouring tea, and it was delicious and warm on a cold winter day! We opted for Plat du jour (the plate of the day) & msamen nature to share, I enjoyed the couscous which was not soggy but nutty and full of flavor. It paired perfectly with the stew. Would recommend order their msamen nature, the texture was really good. The only con would be the meats, maybe we didn't order the right kind, they were a lil dry and tough. One of the better Moroccan food experiences I have had. A great option to try out in this market!

Service I think it's…read morereally sad that the reviews for this restaurant are so low on Yelp for pretty much the sole reason of - "they are rude/ brusk because we were American". It's f***cking Paris!! Yes many restaurants are now very tourist friendly, but when you go to the best most authentic restaurants in Paris/ France in general they are still rather impatient with English-speaking tourists who absolutely refuse to even attempt to speak French. Imagine French people rocking up in NYC and steadfastly refusing to even attempt the English language, that would be absurd. So treat them with the same basic respect and do a bit of DuoLingo before you go on your vacay. Despite clearly being English, I still did my best to speak basic French to them i.e. "Je voudrais le...., un bouteille de ...., s'il vous plait, merci" just BASIC STUFF and the servers were completely lovely to us and smiled a lot at my attempts to converse. The service is slow because that's the way things are in France, people there expect to eat leisurely without a rush and if you don't want to do that then yeah don't go here - go to McDonalds. Ambience The interior decor is absolutely stunning, having been to Marrakech I do believe it is like being transported into a riad. The way you walk in from the bustle of Paris into this darkly lit romantic restaurant is wonderful. Yes the tables are packed in close together but that's the case in 90% of the restaurants in Paris, so that is frankly a ridiculous thing to complain about. Food Authentic Moroccan cuisine. We had the preserved lemon chicken tagine and the Cous Cous 404. The mixed meat, especially the mergeuz and lamb, were completely divine. Coupled with the delicately spiced seven vegetable sauce dish and the super light cous cous, it was so light yet decadent. I loved the accoutrements of chickpeas, raisins and harissa, it was a lovey touch. Literally one dish at this place is served like a feast, it is truly of royal and epic proportions. The preserved lemon tagine was very well balanced and delicate but I would order the cous cous 404 again over the tagine because the meat was absolutely incredible. The Moroccan wine was lovely and reasonably priced, the whole bill was very reasonable considering the meal was such a feast. If the negative reviews about the servers behavior towards American tourists are discounted, this place should be a 4.5 star establishment. I will definitely return when I'm next in Paris.

I got the lamb shoulder couscous and my boyfriend got the 7 vegetable tagine. The one drawback is for the amount of food the table space is very minimal. The food itself was delicious and the portion sizes huge. My boyfriend had to help me finish my dish. The one odd thing is for his tagine, we weren't sure if the couscous given to us was just for my order or his tagine as well. Nevertheless it was delicious, service was great and I enjoyed this meal very much.

My favorite couscous in Paris. A business run by wonderful family from Morocco. Don't be surprised…read moreif you are treated like family and called "mon cher" "mon grand" and "mon petit" within a few minutes. Once when I was there alone, they sat me next to a World War II veteran who told me his fascinating life story. Another time I met Madame la Comtesse--an eccentric neighborhood woman who told me all about her theories of why Paris is a better city than most ("plusieurs centres" is key). All this to say that this is the kind of place where you can immediately become just one of the locals. Now as for food, you must get the couscous, specifically one that includes their delicious Moroccan meatballs (boulettes). They only do couscous three times a week and this is lunch only. Things get pretty full once the little farmers market closes, so go before 1 pm if you can.

The interior of TAÂM is very clean and comforting with a Morocan/Maghreb feel to it. I enjoyed it a lot. They played some relaxing music here (at least when I went) and what surprised me is they serve food on metal platters. This is exactly the type of place I was looking for after a long day of work. I am not an expert on Maghreb food but It seems like the food here is pretty authentic. The couscous was great... honestly before coming here I always thought couscous was steamed vegetables or something but I am happy that its actually more of a grain dish. I ordered some hot spiced tea as well and It was delicious! Overall the meal was fairly filling and pleasant. I don't go to many North African restaurants so this place was a delight to go to. If you love spiced tea and a nice comfy place to eat I would highly suggest TAÂM .
