Tamara was our server and she was absolutely wonderful!! She was super accomodating, very well versed with the menu and helped us choose between all their delicious selections! I took my boyfriend for his birthday and Tamara made sure that he felt special ^_^ The belly dance performance was great!! super mesmerizing to watch and even try to dance with her! Would always recommend this place to my friends and family!

This was my first time at the Café and it won’t be my last one. The Harira soup was delicious, the Seafood Royale Tajine on a bed of saffron rice was astounding and, to finish, baklava with mint tea was superb. Very attentive service and great ambience with very moderate noise level conducive to conversation, winding down and enjoying the dining experience.

Service was excellent, the show is about 30mins and it was decent. The server was very helpful, patient and professional. The real issue is the food. It’s just not up to par. It taste like everything is broiled and then covered in sauce and more sauce. The crab cakes just tasted to oily, the braised lamb had a heavy over powering bland sauce which took away from the meat. The lamb chops didn’t have a proper char. Rice didn’t taste vibrant. Desert was good and the tea was very refreshing.

My friends and I (party of 10) had dinner here to celebrate 3 Sept babies. This is not my first time; my friends have never been before, and S.T. did not disappoint - from food, ambiance and top-notch service we received from our amazing Rony who was amazing! A warm welcome upon entering, and a cozy tent seating area is magnificent. The food is delicious! 8 of us had the lamb shank and the other two tried the seafood dishes. We devoured our lamb shanks and the saffron rice with our side vegetables were amazing! We couldn't finish our desserts that night that came with our 3-course meal $75 but I am sure for those who have big appetite, the 3-course is a good value. The entertainment is amazing although I think $30 just to watch 10-minute belly dancers should you choose to order the a la carte would not be a good choice. We truly enjoyed our dinner and I highly recommend to everyone! Expect to pay $125 per person for this dining experience but it's worth it.

Everyone working there was very nice, but the food was just not it. Everything was unfortunately very tasteless which is sad because I love Moroccan food. Maybe the entertainment in the back room might be worth it, but the food in the cafe at the front was just so basic and so bland and overall disappointment, especially for the price.
