    Excellent Moroccan food. This is a cosy place with a lovely ambience. I'm not a big fan of Incense but that's the first thing you smell when you enter the restaurant and fortunately it wasn't overpowering. The service was good but don't expect the food to brought out as soon as you sit. The goal here is to eat your meal in a relaxed and leisurely manner. We ordered martinis one white and the other red! They were certainly not the US type of martinis, and tasted closer to sangrias. For appetizers we tried their samosa platter. It was a bit of a hit and miss. The meat and the vegetarian samosas were excellent, but the cheese samosa wasn't that great. I ordered the lamb tagine with prunes and almonds. It came in a lovely broth with bread on the side. Absolutely delicious. The lamb was amazingly tender and the broth was immensely flavorful and asking to soak the bread. The dish does get a bit overwhelming towards the end, but overall amazing.

    This place is truly lovely. The exterior is unassuming. The interior is cozy and welcoming. The ambiance is relaxed and comfortable. The service is warm and attentive, and the food is genuinely incredible. I quite seriously believe that tonight I had one of the best meals of my life. I arrived at 8:30pm on a Sunday evening, with no reservation. The place was fairly busy. I would estimate there to have been 50 people in the restaurant. The decor was gorgeous. Golds, royal purples, pastel blues, rich jades and deep maroon tones graced the walls, the furniture and even the tables. Melodic, nicely-volumed Moroccan music swept through the restaurant. A subtle tone of incense burning near the bar wafted through the air. I immediately got excited. This place seemed legit. We were greeted promptly, and despite the busy hour and having had no reservation, we (my brother and I) were given a cozy corner table within 15 minutes. While we waited for a space to free up, one of the two men working the floor asked if we'd like to see the menus and place our orders in advance of taking our seats. We felt this was extremely thoughtful of him, and we did just that. The moment we sat down we were poured a glass of water, and offered some complimentary light snacks that included some wonderfully simple, yet flavourful, spiced potatoes, carrots and olives. It was only a matter of moments before our first course arrived. A delicious chilled salad of roasted peppers and tomatoes. This dish was accompanied by some rustic breads which were made even tastier when dipped into the flavourful juices of the salad. Our main courses came swiftly after we finished our appetizer. We had two dishes: a caramelized-pineapple chicken tagine, and a chicken t'faya cinnamon couscous. The presentation of these dishes was exquisite. The chicken tagine was crowned with some sort of aromatic jam and roasted almonds. I'm not entirely sure what it was to be honest, but the aroma and taste was absolutely brilliant. The t'faya (I hope I'm spelling this right) was wonderfully aromatic as well. The fragrance of caramelized raisins, figs and cinnamon immediately tickled our noses. We ate these ones slow. Which isn't something I'm prone to doing. We savoured every bite, allowing our palettes the time to understand the intricacies of the dish. There were so many exciting cues to discover. I can't speak more highly of these dishes. Absolutely perfect. For dessert we shared a creme brulee (when in Paris) and the "house special": a very unique concoction of Avocado, nuts, honey, spices, and orange juice. Both dishes were a pleasant surprise. Not entirely what we imagined at all, but incredibly tasty. For finishers we had some flavoured coffees. They came piping hot, with notes of thyme, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and orange blossom dancing around the rim. These were powerful little brews. Extremely strong flavoured, rich and full of character. I've never tasted coffee like this anywhere in the world. This was a treat. Throughout the evening our servers were masterfully attentive. Despite serving 50 (or more) patrons both food and drinks, in addition to making said drinks them selves, neither of them missed a beat. They were absolutely wonderful and without provided us with some of the very best service we've ever received. I cannot say enough positive things about this place. If you're in Paris and you appreciate a masterfully crafted culinary experience, you must go to Le Sirocco. You will not be disappointed. Enjoy the pics!

    The only bad thing about this restaurant is that I didn't discover it until our last day visiting Paris. Simply the best restaurant I've dined at during our 12 day visit to France. I asked about which region of Morocco the food is from (Aghadir/Sousa) and I cant wait to visit.

We left as quickly as we could. Never going back here. Paris has many incredible restaurants. Don't waste your time and money on this one. I would give it 0 stars if I could.

The decor in here is quite stunning. You really feel like you're in Morocco with the decorations. And it's also not even that loud, which is perfect for a nice intimate dinner. Had the Kefta with Moroccan Salad and Royal Pigeon Pastilla as starters, Lamb Tagine with Seasonal Fruits and Kefta Meatball Couscous for entrées, and the Selection of Moroccan Pastries as dessert. 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.

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!

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.

Five Fabulous Stars for: 1) Amazing Falafel, just so delicious and crispy on the outside and not pasty but perfect on the inside. Hot and fresh, they had a few in the bin but told me it would be a couple of minutes for the new ones. Love it! 2) Love the limitless topping bar with a bunch of great sauces and veggie toppings. The grilled cauliflower was DAYUMMM ( CJ in NY I am trying but only you have the true impact) as were the marinated chick peas. The green sauce Wowza! Fries were fantastic with a killer seasoning. 3) The hours are perfect for the jet lagged and up at 1:15 am ( Paris time which is 7:15 pm previous day in NY) folks with the gavone hunger pangs. Close at 2 am Thursday through Saturday. Open at 11 am daily. 4) Nice location right in the 5th district of Paris ( Latin Quarter) just south of the Siene river. Clean interior and COVID and mask compliant. 5) 2 fivers for a big ass falafel sandwich, plus a huge order of fries and a bottle of Perrier. No that's too French. Just regular agua. The employees are sweet and generous and kept piling on the toppings per my request,. Nine Euros( $ 10.20 approx) is a steal for this quality and quantity plus the excellent and generous service. Few seats inside. Just grab the two mega falafel sandwiches, walk a few yards and grab a seat next to me ( or 2 metres away ;) in this very cool district of Paris.

    Randomly found this place while exploring Rue Montorgueil and I was pleasantly surprised by TAÂM…read more Though its a smallish restaurant the service, atmosphere and food made this a great dining experience. 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 .
