We had come here on a Sunday afternoon at around 12:00 pm. We had settled on the margarita pizza…read more(without spinach), the falafel wrap, and the kabab wrap (without onions). When we had first walked-in, we were surprised to see how small the restaurant was. However, we then noticed that most of the guests were doing take-out as opposed to dine-in. We were able to find a table for four, which was perfect for us. When we walked-up to the front counter to place our order, we were greeted by a kind hostess, whom took our orders without any issue. We then sat down, and watched as our orders were being prepared. We had to wait about fifteen minutes for all of our meals to be ready. We were surprised to see that the margarita pizza had olives on it, despite not seeing it on the menu. However, we just scooped them off since my children didn't want to eat the olives. For the falafel and kabab wraps, we were surprised to see how large they were, and for only $10.00! The kabab wrap (which I had asked for without onions), had two large pieces of kabab, which filled the wrap, along with the sumac and tomatoes. I enjoyed how tasty the wrap tasted, along with how filling it was. My mother also commented on how delicious the falafel tasted. Considering the prices that we had paid, we certainly go our money's worth! The service was also excellent, as we were brought our wraps directly to our table, while the pizza was placed on the table near to our table. Everyone was kind and considerate, making our stay a pleasant one. There were so many menu items to choose from, it was hard to narrow it down. Will definitely be back to try other items the next time around!

Been quite a few times and tried a selection of their manakeesh; cheese, zaatar, falafel, labneh,…read morespinach, supreme and chicken zinger. I like the 4 in 1 which allows you to sample different toppings at once. It's become my most preferred. The bread is doughy but depending on the option(s) picked, it may fall apart. Service is good. They pump out orders rapidly even when busy. Rarely do they miss ingredients, but rectify those errors. I've dined in more than take out. For a small establishment, it seems to be doing well. Draws in crowds at times. Food is prepped in front of you. Area is clean. Toppings are generous, as are the staff. The washroom is also clean and adjacent to the checkout counter.

This is first and foremost a place for ambiance, though the Mediterranean decor and bellydancing…read morecouldn't distract me from the less than desirable aspects of this establishment. The food here was okay, not authentically Moroccan (more than half the dishes were levantine, but I guess the average patron wouldn't know). The best dish of the bunch was the maftoul, which was simple yet tasty. On the other side of the spectrum the panna cotta was terrible, it had little to no flavour and an odd watery consistency. The service also left a lot to be desired, my biggest complaint was that it would take AGES for our food to arrive. In hindsight I understand why there were a lot of corporate gatherings when I was at the restaurant, especially attending around the holidays. I'm sure flashy performances and mildly exotic food would be a hit for the accounting team.

The staff are very friendly and help you with all the questions you have. The menu offers great variety of options for sharing and also main dishes. We ordered "Cajun Fried Shrimp", "Mushroom N Swiss Burger", "Tandoori Pizza", "Yam Fries" and paired our meal with "Mongonada" and "Ferrero Milkshake". Our food was well-seasoned and perfectly cooked. Beef patty was juicy and cooked just right; with delicious creamy mushroom sauce. We really liked Tandoori Pizza, too. To finish our meal on a sweet note, we ordered "Hot Mud"; a perfect balance of hot brownie with a cold vanilla i e cream. They also offer weekend brunch and Shisha throughout the week.

Recent visits, I have found they refurnished the space -- it's now much darker, and several smaller tables fill the space now, whereas before, it was filled with long tables and you would be seated beside strangers for your meal. It had a different, lighter and more communal vibe before. Also on recent visits, the staff server are a lot younger -- still warm and welcoming, but with less urgency. So getting assistance takes longer. Although this makes for a nice slow meal, if that's what you're looking for! The food however, is still A+! It's the reason I keep coming back again and again. And why when friends come to visit, Maro's is always in the Top 3 places to try in Halton. They consistently serve up fantastic Lebanese food. If you're dining with a vegetarian -- they will be THRILLED with the options here! I daresay they lead with vegetables here. No one will be disappointed with vegetarian option here -- even the meat eaters. Be sure to check out their drink menu as well. Their cocktails -- and mocktails -- are great. Parking outside is all paid parallel street parking, since it's downtown Oakville. But if you visit on Sundays -- parking is free!

3.5 Star Marjane…read moreCafe is more than a Moroccan cafe. Aside from food and drinks, it also a Moroccan home deco and furniture store. There is no official opening hours for Marjane Cafe... no where in the front of the stores or online. The sole owner, cashier, food server just opens whenever there are customers?! But on weekend he keeps the cafe opens till past midnight. Moroccan Mint Tea ($5) served in a large tea pot with just a taste of honey was quite good, wish there are more minty though! The little puppet like tea pot handle cover was just so too cute!! I couldn't stop playing with it! For food.. we just asked the owner to serve us whatever he recommended...so we ended up having: Chicken Lemon Tajine with Frittata ($12.95) My Yelp friend was served this chicken thigh..maybe he knows that he is a leg person and he was looking for belly dancer?? The potato frittata was a little too heavy for me... but he finished everything... I guess it was not Ok? But he finishes everything usually... Chicken Pastilla with Couscous Salad ($8.99) I love my Chicken Pastilla which is really savoury with taste of both sweetness and saltiness. I love the mixture of almond, pistachio and powder sugar! Couscous Salad with a nice cumin dressing was refreshing for a hot summer day! Marjane Cafe is also a Hookah Bar if you are into Shisha... I wish they have some day beds so I can enjoy a shisha/sipping mint tea while lounging around!

It's a good thing there's no Moroccan Dessert Heat for sale here as we were already overcooked from the Toronto weather. It's almost like a Turnkey operation as the semi-Kitchen is pretty much right behind the counter similar in scale and equipment as a Starbucks. The Gentleman(+0.5 *star*) working there was absolutely great with HOSPITALITY as if you're a guest at his home rather than a customer. Chicken Lemon Tajine with Frittata ($12.95) Now understand, I don't have too much Tagine experience under my belt however I have had one that exceeded my imagination of the cuisine. That's probably why I felt underwhelmed by the non-Tagine'd Chicken Lemon Tajine. I was expecting sauciness and bread to soak. I believe the price is slightly high for what this dish offers. Chicken Pastilla with Couscous Salad ($8.99) Pastilla, Bastilla. Toemato, Tomaato. It's another one of those dishes I fell was unique and happy to discover somewhere else. This version was slightly smaller and would be nice if it was warmed slightly more. The Coucous Salad seemed overly sour from vinegar which depends on individual taste I guess, since Amy Pataki found it stand-out worthy.

I would give this place a 4.5. East Tea Can is a Middle-Eastern restaurant with a classy and…read moreelegant ambience combined with amazing food. You can see them making bread from the glass windows overlooking the kitchen and smell the aroma of grilled meat, so it has that homey, authentic feel. We've dined here before and have always enjoyed it. We usually sit indoors, but this time around we got seated outside on the patio since it was quite busy. Aside from the wasp buzzing around our table, we were fine with this. The service here is great. The servers are attentive and they are quick to deliver food. My boyfriend and I ordered the Mixed Grill Platter, the Beef Tikka, and the Legendary Hummus + Brisket. The hummus was a showstopper. Combined with the brisket, it was really delicious. I love how generous they were with the bread quantities. The mixed grill was amazing as always. The meat is always perfectly cooked. This was our first time with the beef tikka and we enjoyed it as well. We had ordered two servings of the fries and noticed that they didn't have Zaatar seasoning like they usually do. I thought they had run out but when I asked our server, she said that they didn't add the seasoning to the fries anymore which is a little disappointing. If i had known ahead of time, I would've asked to substitute for rice instead. All in all, you can't go wrong with this place. They always know how to cook their meat perfectly, and they have great side dishes to go with your mains. I highly recommend their mixed grill, though I've tried their other mains and were also quite pleased with all of them (particularly the Cordon Bleu and the Beef Tagine).

Wasn't much of a fan of the grilled mahi mahi but it was a very healthy and well-balanced dish. The seafood fettuccine I had was so good though. So creamy with hints of tomato and perfectly fused seafood flavor from the generous amounts of seafood they put in the pasta. Mussels, salmon, and shrimp is what I recall was in there. The food isn't cheap but it's what you'd expect from a hotel restaurant. The place is really spacious; tons of seating. The workers are nothing but friendly as well.
