Service was fantastic! She let me try free samples of very tasty food, Very nice and inviting place. Food was fantastic as well.

This is by far and above some of the most delicious food in the world! My wife and I have been going to them in East Atlanta at the Sunday Farmer's Market for quite some time and now that they have a physical permanent location inside of Colony Square at Politan Row you have to go!! The Lamb Shank is mouthwatering, the prices are so amazing for the quality and portion you get and the owners are extremely nice!! read more

Wonderful little place with delicious food and fantastic customer service! You can tell the owners take pride in what they do and want to make sure you have a great dining experience. I highly recommend checking it out! read more

Food was fantastic! The restaurant was clean and food came out fast. They had a nice shaded patio too!

Amazing lamb dish combinations. Meat, hummus, rice. Delicious! Ambiance is lacking, but the food makes up for it.

First, my husband loved his chicken dish, giving it a 9 of 10. I am a vegan and my order (several sides) was not as good. We went around noon, shortly after the restaurant first opened. My rice was cold and the food, on the whole, was rather bland. It would have benefited from some salt and some fat (oil). And the yellow rice, which I presume was meant to be saffron rice, did not have the lovely perfume of saffron. It appeared to have been made with tumeric to achieve the yellow color. On the plus side: I ordered falafel and it was REALLY GOOD; however, it was not served with tahini. I would have had to purchase it separately. So...I will go back for falafel but will have the other dishes at other tried and true establishments. The total was near 50 dollars and there was no silverware and I had water, so the place isn't inexpensive. The owner was pleasant and very helpful but I have had better eggplant, chickpeas and green beans at festivals in the surrounding greater Metro Atlanta area. read more

The food was good and the service was great! Overall good portion size and value for what you get. read more

Marrakech Express - Lamb Shank - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

See all

Stopped by here on a whim although I had originally planned to go the pizza place nearby. Moroccan food sounded like a better plan and it did NOT disappoint! I had the chicken shawarma bowl and it was DELICIOUS! The flavors were impeccable *chef's kiss*, the portion was generous and the meal left me full without feeling heavy. I live nearby so this has been added to my list of great meals for a good value. Will be returning often! I'd post. Pic of the food but I ate it up before I could stop to take a picture! read more

We arrived just before closing and figured we'd just grab whatever they had to go so they could get on with their evening. The owners were so accommodating and welcoming. They actually brought out the food and we dined in. The lamb shank was one of the best meals I've had this year and everything is made with love from very authentic recipes. My husband is a vegetarian and he is always super pleased with this place. Great addition to Smyrna. read more

I love their food. Even drove to the restaurant when they ran out at the farmer's market

Excellent service. Clean atmosphere. Delicious, large portions. Truly an exceptional experience.

This place has the most amazing food! We tried it on a whim tonight as it is new to Smyrna. I got the falafel plate which did not disappoint with many sides and pita/sauces to go with it. Huge portion, not one bad thing. The owner was a delight and you will want to support this business for her alone; I promise. 10/10- y'all be sure to go! read more

Chef Amal is the sweetest, and her food is incredible. I usually stop by the Piedmont Green Market to get a breakfast pita wrap from her on the way to tennis (tip: add the harissa!), but am always happy to find new locations where Marrakech is popping up. The food is so flavorful -- I love the Tanjiya (a savory, garlicky-cumin-lemon chicken dish), and the baba ghanoush is also incredible. Thank you for introducing me to a new cuisine + doing it with such kindness! read more

This is seriously the best food, and I'm picky so that says a lot! The hummus is the best hummus I've ever had, and the chicken shawarma sandwich is fantastic! read more

Chef Amal knows what she's DOING. Sadly she is only at the EAV food hall on Friday during lunch currently, but I am so glad we stopped in randomly for lunch on a Friday. We had no particular plans for what food to get, and after she offered a sample of her eggplant, we knew we needed more! We had an veggie plate and a chicken plate. Each comes with the main stewed item, some rice, green beans, hummus and pita, and some of her homemade hot sauce. Do not forego the hot sauce, it is the perfect amount of spicy and so full of flavor! If you're not a spice lord though no worries, her food is incredible with or without the hot sauce. The chicken was so tender, it was falling apart under my fork, and I felt so nourished. The green beans are amazing and so is the eggplant. If I wasn't typically working on Fridays I'd be here every week and I can tell she has quite a few regulars. read more

Absolutely the best Mediterranean I've had. Spices, quality, service, all 5/5. Will be back!

We have ordered take out a few times and the food has been delicious each time! Glad to have Marrakech in Smyrna.

We ordered pickup from here for Mother's Day, and it was amazing! My husband and I both thought the flavors and quality were so good. I think the owner was there and my husband said she was super kind and helpful. You can really tell they care about using clean, quality ingredients, which we really value. Definitely our new favorite spot! read more

Food here was super delicious, and the portion was huge; Marrakech was really worth what we paid for. In addition, the wait was pretty short despite the line ahead of me being long. My friend and I got the Chicken Shawarma bowl and finished it right up. Adding the optional spicy sauce gives the bowl a nice kick if you're looking for some heat as well! read more

The food from Marrakech was fresh and delicious. The falafels, spicy hummus, chicken and lamb tanjiya were really flavorful. The owner took the time to explain every dish. The dining room was very inviting. We will definitely go back again! read more

great food! love the falafel and the hummus. Great taste. Will be going again. Great customer service

The chicken shawarma bowl is delicious! The chicken and rice are so flavorful I regularly buy it from the gatech stand

Food was delicious and the staff is very friendly. I highly recommend trying it out. I am glad to have another cuisine option in the Smyrna area. read more

I read about this new Mediterranean place in Smyrna yesterday and decided to give it a try last night. The owner (Amal) is wonderful and the food was out of this world. I got the Chicken Shawarma bowl, which came with all the sides, basmati rice and pita bread. The portion was plentiful and the food was out of this world. We will be back for sure. People in Smyrna please get out and support this business. read more

I just want to say... THIS PLACE SLAPS HARD. Every Tuesday, they come down to Emory University for our Farmers Market and you can bet I will be there to order. Every week, I always got to Snapchat how amazing and tasty this place is. This is an amazing Moroccan/Mediterranean food. For only 6$, I can get either the chicken shawarma or chicken tanjiya (Chicken slow cooked the Marrakech way with preserved lemons, & Moroccan spices.) I tried almost everything here, but those two have been my to-go. It comes with a fresh salad in dressing, and I always ask to get it spicy with that special sauce. The best highlight of this restaurant are the people. They are honestly genuinely nice people who work hard. The owners treat their food and customers like family and they work hard to uphold the standards of authenticity in their cooking. Once you try this place, you can tell its just good olde fashion home cooking just like momma and dadda used to do. Their spices come directly from Morocco and everything is prepared and made here in Atlanta. An amazing humble backstory and amazing food for a great price. What more can I say? Expect to see me in the line again on Tuesdays at Emory. Much love and positivity all around. read more

I was very disappointed... ... that I never tried chef Amal's food before in my 6+ years of living in Atlanta. I would have posted pictures of the food but my friend and I literally cleared everything on our plates because the food was so good. Definitely try everything on the menu but my personal favorites were the Chicken & Lamb Tangia, the eggplant dish & side (forgot the name :o), the chicken shawarma wrap, and their hummus. So basically try everything on their menu as you will not be disappointed. Their portions are very hearty as well!! Rarely do I post reviews for food but I would be doing Atlantans a disservice by not raving about Marrakech Express. There is a dearth of food spots like this around here and I will 100% be back to try everything on the menu, again. I posted this on Google, but I am obligated to share my review of Marrakech Express on Yelp as well! read more

I. LOVE. THIS. PLACE. This is a small place run by a very nice woman and a few helpers. It can be found in the We Suki Suki complex. I recommend coming with a friend or two and sharing a bunch of food from all the different stalls including this one. On Tuesdays, you can find the owner serving the same food at the Farmers Market at Emory. Wherever she is, she always has a smile. The food here is soo good. My personal favorite is the chicken tanjiya, but I've also enjoyed other things on the menu. The first time I ate this I was blown away. Legit was already planning my next time buying this meal. The spices are great and nothing like I've had before, the rice is well cooked and seasoned, and the white and spicy sauce on top really add a nice touch. But most importantly, THIS CHICKEN. Wow. It is fork tender--just touch it and it falls apart. It's so perfectly cooked and seasoned that I think it's one of the best chicken dishes I've had in awhile. In addition, it's a huge amount of food for $8 and could easily be split into two meals if you get a combo with hummus and pita. Definitely one of my favorite places in Atlanta, so come! read more

One of the best, cheapest, and most flavorful food in Atlanta! I love everything especially the Lamb Tanjiya! Only $10 for tender, flavorful bone-in lamb, seasoned rice, salad, hummus, pita, and delicious Legour and harissa sauce. The chicken dishes are bomb too and only $6. Amazing, nice owners! Also, go Yellow Jackets! They usually come to Georgia Tech's community market. read more

Sometimes in life there are bad days, what we chose to do on those bad days is usually up to us. If you happen to be having a bad I would suggest coming to this place and getting something to eat. Parking is hard unless you are familiar with the area and you probably know some good free places to park. Or your like me and you will be sweating while you eat in hopes of not getting booted the entire time. So yeah its not fancy, its in a food court/ hall sort of setting, there are picnic table, you might have to sit next to someone you don't know! Overall its a experience everyone should have at least once. The Food: Mediterranean food is a perfect balance of things we should all eat in its most natural form. Grilled meat, Salad, Beans, bread, I mean really this is the food that we should all have been eating all along. I ordered the chicken swarma bowl and a mint tea. The bowl has everything you could ask for, Meat, greens, beans, hummus and rice. Best of all the two ladies who run the business seem like they really care about the food and the customers. Please go check them out but please don't go too often because parking is tough and it gets busy in there, and hey I have a lot of bad days, I need a place to sit. read more

Loved, loved, loved this place. There are so many food choices to choose from at Colony Square, but this place stands out. Excellent customer service and the food was delicious! I had the lamb shank and it was beyond expectation! The lamb was so tender, the flavor was there. Prices are very reasonable. There are "higher end restaurants" that will serve a lamb shank for twice the price yet will not deliver like this place. I will be back. read more

Overall...so delicious!! Service: just the sweetest ladies behind the counter! They were helpful explaining the dishes and helping us decide what to get. It's a small family owned stand that treat you as family Food: I honestly didn't have any plans on eating here. I came to check out Mushi Ni but they were closed. So since we made the drive down, we walked around the small food court and contemplated what to eat for lunch. We got the Chicken Shwarma bowl since we saw it came loaded with veggies, and I LOVE veggies. It was white meat chicken that was perfectly seasoned/not dried out at all! (and they give you a huge amount.) Included in the bowl is some sautéed beets, spicy green beans, a salad, chicken, cucumber/tomato salad, a dollop of hummus, and a small scoop of hot sauce. You get a lot for what you pay. 5/5 - I ended up loving the chicken shwarma more than I thought I would! It was so filling and delicious! I will definitely be back **if you check in you get a code for a free drink with your entree. I forget what it was but the tea they offer is a nice sweet floral tasting drink! I believe they mix in some rose water with it but I definitely recommend trying the drink out!! read more

Keep in mind that this is basically a food truck in a long corridor and you'll be eating on a picnic bench. With those expectations in mind, be prepared for an absolutely fantastic meal. I couldn't make up my mind so I ordered one of each entree. They all were amazing, so you can't go wrong. And don't pass up on the baclava. Not that hungry? Just get the baclava. There were actually folks in line doing just that. Kid friendly? Can you beat pitas and hummus? Great find, great people, delicious food, back alley atmosphere. read more

Marrakech Express - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

It's hard to find a better value -- in regards to price and quantity -- than Marrakech Express. It's also Georgia's first Moroccan restaurant, which tastes like a spiced-up version of Mediterranean. Things to know: ***** I. LOCATION & PARKING: Find this food stall inside of the Global Grub Collective near the front of the door. About parking, I've never had any issues parking on Flat Shoals Avenue SE. II. FOOD & DRINK: They have a limited menu consisting of the Nabati Plate (Vegetarian) and Meatball Tagine. I tried the latter ($6). *Meatball Tagine: They seasoned meatballs with green peppers, onions, and this deliciousness sits on top of basmati rice. It's accompanied by both a green salad and a liquor sauce. The portions could serve as two meals, and I thought the flavors worked well together. I could eat these meatballs every week, honestly. For dessert, they offer baklava. They offer Kahwa (Morrocan spiced ice coffee), Moroccan mint ice tea, water, and soda to wash everything down. I got a piece of pita and a drink, for an additional $2. III. SERVICE: I visited during a peak lunch hour and found the service to be exceptionally fast. IV. AMBIANCE & DECOR: The Global Grub Collective has picnic table seating, and this food hall feels tight. V. PRICES: My entire meal set me back only $8 (and I tipped $3). It's hard to find a better deal in Atlanta, for that amount of food. VI. OVERALL: I will return to Marrakech Express. I love me some Moroccan, yo. read more

this is not your typical Moroccan restaurant with real Moroccan food. Don't get me wrong, it's delcicoud but deinfitely not moroccan. Moroccan food is not middle eastern, Persian, Greek or Israeli. It's totally different. It's not MIDDLE EASTERN food !!! It's not African food with Beber tradition of olive oil, tanginess, and absolutely nothing Persian about it. Again, good restaurant but it is not Moroccan food. I am Moroccan and I can tell you it is not. read more

Got it at the Georgia Tech pop up stand. Everything about the food is amazing (from the tenderness of the chicken to the salad), the quantity is great, staff is super friendly, and pricing is very reasonable. Highly recommend read more
