"I had to be rolled out of here after eating so much delicious chicken and potatoes. Atmosphere and service does depend when you come - we went at around 7pm and we're the only non Moroccans but at lunchtime there were many more foreigners and a diverse range of customers. For ten euros here you can eat like a prince. With free delicious olives and bread to soak up your sauce."
