One of the best spots I've been to so far...top service, kind and welcoming poeple, didn't try the food but definitely looks tasty. Reasonably priced. I would definitely recommand.
Cozy spot in fox point neighborhood serving lovely mint tea, and delicious hummus
Phenomenal chicken - so tender that just rips apart in your mouth. The hummus was delightful - chickpea flavor shone through with just a hint of spice/paprika. Thought the rice was a star in and of itself too - perfect balance of savoriness to the rest of the meal. Thought the music and decor had an authentically moorish feel. Servers did an excellent job. Would highly recommend for a meal in Providence!!
I love this place. The atmosphere is relaxing, ordering is simple and the tea service was great. This could be a great date night spot or just a place to relax sip some tea and read a book or work on your laptop. There is outdoor seating as well. I will definitely be back and highly recommend.
I will never forget the moment that the mint tea hit my tongue. I drank tea all my life and I never knew it could taste like that. Strong and sweet at the same time with no added sugar or sweetener or anything. This was tea brewed and cooked to perfection. And the inside is beautiful with work from local artists and Rich colored paint. A lush atmosphere that matches the sensual food. If you haven't been here you're missing out of the best tea in Providence hands down
What an amazing spot to relax and enjoy some tea and delicious dishes. The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful and cozy. I’d love to come back and try more of the tea!
This is not your average sit down restaurant. You come in, grab a menu, order, then pay and await greatness. Please note that they have bigger menu than what is on Google and Yelp. I totally forgot to take a picture of the menu. All of the food is made to order so please be patient. We ordered the Mint tea lightly sweetened and the iced Hibiscus tea. Both very good. We ordered the bakoula, baked beets, Brie sandwich to start. Everything was delicious. The bakoula is like sauteed spinach and the baked beets are served with goat cheese and sliced almonds. You eat these both with Pita. The Brie sandwich was very good. It is served with mixed greens which are a bit bitter but the Brie and raspberry spread pair nicely together. We also order the tortilla de patata with is essentially a potato and egg quiche served with cherry tomatoes. It was Very good. It’s dimly lit but you can still read the menu and the Moroccan music in the background is at a respectable volume. They have a gender neutral bathroom which was nice and clean. They also have desserts and hookah.
ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS SURPRISE!! Parked in front of the restaurant while heading to another one but the food on other patrons’ plates looked too good to pass up. Food was amazing (it’s been a while since we’ve had food this tasty), the restaurant was cute and cozy, and the waitress was very nice. Had the lamb shank tagine, mussels tagine, and goat cheese/beet salad. The Mint tea was so good we ordered another tea to try after dinner.
