I really enjoyed being there and taste their Moroccan couscous that was so tasty , the tajine too ( specially the sauce and the chicken was cooked well ) I liked the vibe and the drinks it was very refreshing If something to improve is to separate the men to the women restroom and improve the taste of the pastilla = the chef should put more almond to mix the flavour between salty and sweet)

Amazing and fresh Moroccan dishes!! The bastilla was incredible— would definitely have again! My friends enjoyed other traditional dishes with veggies and couscous and loved those as well. The decor is also super cute and a great vibe overall!

What we ordered: Chicken Tagine with couscous Roasted eggplant Turkish espresso martini Moroccan Mint Julep The quality of food is so very fresh here. I recommend everything we ordered, the chicken is so tender. The staff is lovely. The only thing we didn’t love the tahini sauce on the eggplant otherwise the eggplant was so good & the pita that came with it was perhaps some of the best we ever had!

Dinner at Café Mogador last night did not disappoint. Drinks were smooth, food was on point, and the whole place had that cozy, late-night vibe I love. The kebab was the star, super flavorful, unique, and honestly right up my alley (maybe I’m biased, but I’d order it again in a heartbeat). Wrapped things up with a raspberry sorbet that was light, refreshing, and the perfect finish. Service was chill, not too in-your-face, which I liked, though I had to wave for attention a couple times. Nothing major, just the pace of the night. If you’re after authentic flavors + great energy, Mogador is definitely worth a visit.

I reserved a 3 PM on a Sunday. It was still brunch time so options were limited, so I ordered halloumi eggs. They were delicious. The service was good. I think dinner might be a 5 star. I especially liked that they served a little salad on the plate to add some brightness to the plate.

LOVED THE FOOD. First time in a Moroccan restaurant. It was delicious. The pita bread was so tasty. The eggs are cooked to perfection. The chicken is so tender and the spicy sauce on the side is perfect with it. Get the country breakfast and the other one. OMG and the orange juice so fresh and hydrating. Good experience and excellent to the point service
