Was skeptical walking in because it's in EAV and I'm not into trendy things (aka bao/poke bowls/etc.), but really missed my hole in the wall spot that used to be somewhat similar to this place in my mind so gave it a shot. Delicious food--got the chicken shawarma bowl and the lamb entree along with the mint tea and coffee. Both drinks were cold and homemade--the mint tea was 10000% on spot. Tasted like bubble tea without the bubbles aka healthier and mintier. Coffee was a bit too sweet. The food was delicious--large portions, warm pita bread that seemed homemade although I'm not entirely sure, but they were thick and chubby unlike most store bought ones. Will definitely be back. Just sucks that the earth is on fire and that we're being constantly hammered to stop using single waste products and this entire spot/food row has only disposables...which is why I give four stars cus if there is no earth, there is no delicious food. read more

Marrakech Express is amazing Moroccan/Mediterranean food. I have this place all the time when they are at Emory's food market. The chicken shawrma plate provides you with so much food for a great value. The hummus and pita bread are a great add on and definitely worth the extra charge. read more

I have forgotten how urban lunching is like. Going into the City to get a take out for a picnic lunch. Marrakech Express is one of the vendor in the Food Court in mid-town. Obvious their clientele is the It takes some maneuvering through the concrete buildings to find it, but the Service was fast and friendly. The limited menu offers is limited; and I think the main entrees changes frequently. In other words, they served seasonal ingredients. Very delicious Lamb Shank I gotten. The special Morocan Coffee and Ice Tea were different but delicious drinks. read more

Delicious! Bit of a dive, but those are always the best, right? Chef Amal is the first stall on the left and she serves up all kinds of homemade Moroocan dishes and treats. The mint tea is a great way to wash it all down! read more

can't say enough about this place! the food is so tasty and it's definitely prepared with equal love and skill. The owner is absolutely the best! we try to go as often as we can. read more

Marrakech Express - chicken bowl - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

Marrakech Express is amazing and Amal is a culinary genius-prodigy-chef. THE END. Okay, okay, fine. I guess I can probably dish out some details if that's what you really want. I love this restaurant because the food is amazing - the rice is always fresh, the chicken is always tender, and the mint tea is sublime. I'm not sure how Amal does it, but every meal feels personalized and home-cooked; I spent part of my childhood in the Middle East, and her food takes me back to the best parts of those days. I've been going to Marrakech Express at least once a week for the last few months, and I don't see myself kicking my habit anytime soon. I mean, between the affordable pricing and the delicious food, why would I ever want to? read more

I did not know that Marrakech Express was one of the food locations in We Suki Suki until I saw their tent at the Emory Farmer's Market this past week and looked up their Yelp profile! I ordered the nabati denjal (eggplant) plate, which had a spiced eggplant curry served over yellow basmati rice with a side salad, white garlic sauce, spicy harissa sauce, and hummus and pita on the side. I also tried the baklava, and it was amazing - super flaky, sweet, and rich. Overall, really stellar and flavorful Moroccan cuisine, and I will definitely be back for more! read more

We really liked coming here. My boyfriend and I were in town for a few days and found this local spot. The food here is really good but my favorite part was that it's like a mini food court. There is so much to choose from. There's Japanese, Vietnamese and of course Mediterranean. It's hard to find but once you find it you'll never want to eat anywhere else. We came twice in our 4 day trip. read more

I live one hour away from this place but one day randomly I got here. I decided to try the Baklawa and its the best Baklawa I have ever tasted in my life. After that, my mom asked me to seek more Mediterranean places near us and we tried, but we just ended going back to Amal. The one hour away it's worth it. Today I tried a vegetarian plate: eggplant and chickpea stew with basmati rice, green salad, hummus, a Baklawa and a ice tea with mint... I almost cried because it was extremely delicious. Amal is extremely nice and her food it's just a reflection of it. Definitely recommend this to anyone that's open to try something different and delicious.(if you haven't tasted Mediterranean food) PD: if you haven't tasted Mediterranean food, you're missing out!!! And I'm puertorican! read more

Marrakech Express - Chicken bowl - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

Marrakech Express brought me back to when I studied abroad in Morocco during college. From the taste of the food to the friendless of Amal, it is truly a taste of Morocco in the middle of Atlanta. Her authentic, homecooked food is something you need to experience for yourself. I had the chicken with rice and salad but after trying my friend's hummus and pita - I should have ordered a side of it as well. You receive plenty of food and by the end, you will be full! Additionally, if you like a bit of heat have her add the hot sauce but a warning that it is not for the faint of heart. Shukran Amal, I will be back soon! read more

I'm happy to write that the Fefela was delicious! So delicious in fact it inspired me to write my first Yelp review. My best friend who lives in Atlanta introduced me to this gem before my flight back to New York. The chicken was tender and flavorful with the spices and orange sauce. There was a combination of sweetness with the white sauce that was a softening balance with the spice. Basmati yellow rice below the chicken made the dish filling. Having peta bread and hummus on the side paired perfectly! For dessert, my best friend and had the baklava. The chef and owner, Alaoui, wasn't there today. However, her cooking was so well done that I wanted her and her team to know here. Marrakech is going to be my go to restaurant in Atlanta every time I visit! read more

The food here is always so good. I had the #13 spicy. Flavors are rich and a nice full plate for a low price. Chef Amal will always get my business. read more

Amazing flavor and service. Apparently, the menu changes daily but everything was so flavorful and great size portions. Will definitely be going back! read more

A regular after the first try. The food is amazing! I love the perfect balance of flavor. I usually get their veggie plate, but their chicken is also a hit. Their homemade Moroccan tea (mint) is a must if you don't like sweet tea. Homemade baclava dessert still need to try, but I'm sure it would go great with their tea. Great customer service. Always welcomed with a smile. read more

The food and service is always great! The owner/chef Amal is the nicest lady, she always greets with warm smile and helpful. I got nabati combo, which came with rice, chickpea and eggplant curry, salad, hummus, pita, baklava and a drink for 8$. Isn't it amazing!!! The food was fresh, flavorful but the baklava was the the showstopper. I felt like Amal has mastered cooking baklava, because it has the perfect amount of sweet, flaky and chewy in each bite. read more

These guys come to Emory to be in our farmers market and I am so glad they do. I always get the Lamb Tanjiya and it is mind-blowing ly good. I get a whole lamb shank and a full complement of salad, rice, pita, and hummus. The value and food quality is amazing read more

I came to Marrakech at Politan Row and got the eggplant stew (Denjal) which was probably one of the best dishes at this food hall, and I usually hate eggplant. The owners are super nice and came to check on us while eating to make sure everything was great. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for amazing Moroccan food in Atlanta and to meet the owners who truly care about your food and experience. read more

The whole scene at the Collective is super cool, if you've traveled the world and eaten at legitimate little eateries like this in various cultures. The Marrakech Express dishes my wife and I ordered were both mouthwatering. It's no-frills, just authentic Moroccan food at a great price. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Absolutely delicious! It's the kind of food that brings you comfort at the very first bite. I've had the chicken tfaya and the chicken tanjiya so far and I'm looking forward to trying other dishes. By the way, you're not going to be hungry with the amount of yummy food you get. read more

Marrakech Express - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

I cannot recommend this place enough! Absolutely amazing food, huge portions and so reasonably priced. You will adore Amal as soon as you meet her--she is so welcoming and always ready with a sample of the day's specials. She usually has both a meat and a vegetarian option, and both come with lots of sides. The baklava is pure heaven, so make sure to add a slice (or seven) to your order, plus the mint tea or iced coffee. Get there as soon as you can! read more

The best lamb shank I've ever had..... the tajine is better than some of the ones I had in Morocco and you can taste the time and effort that goes into everything. Would recommend getting the Harissa as well. read more

I have been trying to get to this place for the last two months and haven't been able to because of my work hours and their operating hours. I got here on a Saturday and I can see why it has such positive reviews. The service was good, the price was really good, and the food was good. I ordered the chicken felfela and was yummy. It's a tomato based dish and I'm so glad that I had a chance to try it. I have never had the opportunity to try Moroccan food and I've been missing out. I had the young lady add the hot sauce on the side and it was HOT! It definitely cleared my sinuses. I can't wait to go back and try a new dish because it really was that enjoyable. read more

Found this randomly when I went to We Suki Suki in EAV. I have been going back weekly. The food is great. I am a big fan of the grape leaves. Definitely worth checking out. read more

Google directions puts you in the parking lot behind this establishment which is convenient for parking and only a short walk around the corner. This was my first time here and I ordered the chicken shawarma bowl. All I can say is fabulous, seasoned to perfection and just the right amount of spice to not dull your tastebuds to all the flavors going on. Prices are very reasonable, I will definitely be back. read more

This was the tastiest food I've eaten in a long time! The chef is amazing! I can't wait to come back and get the Lamb dish before it sells out! read more

Marrakech catered a lunch at my office this week and it was hands down the best Moroccan food I've ever had. The owners are incredibly nice people and made the experience even better. Highly recommend for any event! read more

Marrakech Express - Just a sampling. Everything was wonderful. - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

It's so delicious and authentic, and affordable!! The menu is different everyday which is pretty cool bc you can try new things. I had the pita with hummus and chicken tanjiya with white sauce and let me tell you. I'm definitely coming back as often as I can! Just thinking about it makes me hungry haha. read more

Really good! Almost missed it since it shares space with another restaurant and the name is on the window. Had the lamb tanjinye and loved it! You also get a lot of food for just $10. Check this place out! read more

Tons of food for under $8, and it's delicious and fast. I got the vegetarian option of the day which was basmati rice, potatoes and other veggies with curry, cinnamon, and probably a lot of other spices. It came with hummus and pita which was excellent and a small salad. Everything was flavorful and delicious, and the woman serving was helpful and so nice. I will definitely go back here. read more

Flavorful and authentic Tagine Chicken! Yogurt sauce is a perfect balance for the hot sauce. You will not be disappointed. Owners was also extremely friendly and a pleasure to meet! read more

OMG!!! So good. The chef is so awesome. As soon as I tasted a sample of the chicken, I immediately remembered her awesome food at a Yelp event. How in the world does she get chicken breast so tender and moist I don't understand? I consider myself a great cook, not so much after tasting her food. The white sauce, the signature Liguor, is to DIE for!!! Every single bite was perfect!!! She had a spicy sauce she added to it for me. A bit of lettuce with the Liguor sauce was perfect. Just a touch of refreshing addition to the uber savor of the chicken in the cream sauce with the Liguor on top. She's amazing! She said she posts the days special every day on here. I will be checking in regularly. She has won my soul with her food. I might even try a veggie dish. I'm sure it would be amazing. I usually would never eat chicken dishes either, but I got a nudge from a higher power who knew I'd fall in love! I did. I did indeed... (With a chicken dish? Not me. I luv all things pork, crab, lobster, ribeye (no not any beef, ribeye, prime rib, or short rib), and shrimp. Not chicken... ) I get her chicken dishes anytime. Don't get me started on the price!!! $7?!?!?!?! read more

Marrakech Express - Everyday is something different. I'm not a chicken person, but after having a sample, I was today! - Moroccan Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

Good food but the guy!!! Boy was he rude as hell. He wanted to charge me one dollar for a cup of ice!! Because I asked to have a separate cup with ice. He's bugging. In a mall full of other food vendors, I just went and got it from somewhere else. It was ridiculous. He kept telling the son not to give us the sauce , he would come and give us the sauce like I was going to run away with it. I understand he was all alone taking orders and cooking but that is no way to talk and treat he customers. My land was salty. But the sharwama was great. I won't be going back!! Smh!!!! read more

Delicious food and wonderful service. I neglected to select that I wanted a receipt and they took the time to send it to me anyways. Highly recommend. read more

I had the chicken felfela, which was flavorful, especially with the hot sauce. Nice rice. Warm pita and tasty hummus on the side. The owner is very kind and friendly. Would love to go back and try the lamb. Good value-for-money. read more

I'm usually lazy about reviewing restaurants. BUT this place is fantastic. I frequent the space where their pop-up is set up, and have been enjoying their baklava (the best I've ever had). Today I decided to try their entrees. I got the vegetarian combo ($7! So cheap!) and it blew me away. Perfectly tender eggplant and a burst of delicious spices. Top that with some wonderful hummus, salad, and--yes of course my favorite--baklava and my meal was perfect. The lady at the counter is very friendly, as well. I will be back!! read more

This was my favorite place for lunch in Atlanta. I had know idea what the meals were called, but I'd always get the "red" chicken if the lady was serving it. If not, I would go with the "yellow." When I went to We Suki Suki a couple of weeks ago, the Marrakech Express sign was still up, but there was a different guy in the booth, so I'm not sure if they moved out for good or not. read more

I've been in search of good Mediterranean food in Atlanta for more than a year and I think I've finally found my go-to! I knew from the first bite that the food was not only delicious, but extremely fresh! The hummus was some of the best I have ever had and Amal was quick to ask if my vegetarian order needed to be made vegan (which it did and she happily obliged!). This was my first visit to Marrakech, but it will most certainly not be my last! I can't wait to try more of what the menu has to offer. read more

Love the food! Authentic and delicious with an shifting menu keeps me coming back. The staff is very helpful and friendly as well. read more
