Cafe Morocco: Reviews & Ratings
I have been coming here since 2012. One of the best authentic mediterranean cuisines. I am a loyal customer and they provide top notch service every time. It's my happy place. The Morrocan Mint tea is soothing and their soup is my favorite
5 stars is not enough, this place is off-the-charts delicious! AND it has something for everyone - young, old, vegetarian, vegan or carnovire...picky eaters or adventurous ones...you can't loose. And whatever you do, order hot tea and don't skip dessert!!!
This was a great choice! To start, the Moroccan coffee was wonderful. The dolmas were a great start, well seasoned and vegetarian (I don't like lamb!). My garlic chicken kebab was savory and the creamy sauce made it even better. The best part though was the dessert, made with "rich man's bread" and a milk custard on top with pistachios ... I thought I'd died and gone to heaven!!! I live 2 hrs away but I'm looking for a reason to go back soon!
Such authentic, tasty food. Good food takes a while, so be patient, and you'll be rewarded. Little family run hole in the wall that recognizes their regulars and treats newbies like friends.
The food and service is always great. The parking lot is too small, so I usually have to park a block away. I usually get the beef Casablanca Kebab with the Greek salad instead of the taboule one. I've never been where there has been a wait, but have been the only one there. My wife and daughter love this place.
I am a fan of middle eastern cuisine and have sampled it all over the Mediterranean region. The food here was some the best that I have ever had. We ordered two combination dinners, one with lamb kabob and one with chicken kabob. One of us ordered salad while the other got soup. One ordered humus while the other got babaganoush. We also got an order of dolma. For dessert we ordered Aish Essaraya and Harissa cake. We also had the hibiscus tea. Everything except the dolma and beverages was included in the combo dinner. We shared our food so we got to try a wide range of dishes. We are both foodies and we were genuinely impressed with everything that we got. We ended up with enough food to take home for another entire meal for us both. We could have just ordered one meal for the two of us and it would have been enough. This place has a casual vibe and a humble decor, but the food is outstanding. We will be back for more.
Excellent Moroccan food. Everyone at our table was raving about it. One friend said it was the best lamb he ever had. I went vegetarian and had tabouli and falafel. Very, very good. I'll definitely eat here again.
This is my favorite lunch spot in Sacramento. I can't talk enough about how good the food is here. My favorite dish so far is the chicken sumac with extra hummus. The afternoon waitress is exceptional and after a few visits she knew exactly what my coworkers and I wanted. I don't know what they're putting in that garlic sauce but I don't even care because it is so delicious.
