Découvert par hasard et très bonne surprise. Ils font de très bons petits déjeuners à de très bons prix. On a pris 4 petits déjeuners différents et ils étaient tous très bien. Ils ont un des meilleurs thè à la menthe que j'ai bu dans un restaurant. Mieux que la plupart des restaurants du quartier à un prix 2 fois moins cher. Par contre pour le déjeuner c'était pas du tout bon, le tajine de poulet était sec et le tajine de kefta à l'oeuf, la kefta n'était pas cuite et de qualité médiocre.

A nice tagine, soup with a hard boiled egg and dates, salad, bread and a lemonade for 54 dirhams. About 5 US dollars. When you order total the cost of your meal in your head from the prices on the menu. The service was good but the server here is infamous for overcharging. I avoided the hassle by giving him 64 dirhams before he had the chance to overcharge me. Thx for the previous reviews here and the advice of local residents in regards to the server's known overcharging. It's really no big deal if he would have overcharged me a few dirhams, the prices are very good here, but why end a good dining experience with negativity over a couple of coins.
