We came for the new Brunch and we're delighted with our choice! The Turkish coffee was excellent, the food delicious, and the staff were welcoming and fun. I loved the eggs poached in shakshuka, the omelet with hash browns was great for a GF choice, and both the sweet and the savory crepes were hits. I think next time we'll come for dinner, music and belly dancing! If you want to feel like you're in another world for a little while, this is the place!Dietary restrictions: We needed some gluten free choices, and the omelet with hash browns fit the bill!

So fun and beautiful! The food and atmosphere was perfect for a special occasion with friends. Very comfortable seating, lots of options for meat eaters and the vegetarian/vegans in our group. We both ordered different dishes with shrimp and enjoyed them. The belly dancing was fun and we all got to dance and be involved as much as we wanted. I recommend that you make a reservation for dinner and check when the belly dancer will perform. We brought some cash to tip the dancer. She was amazing! If you don't make a reservation, you can walk in and there is a bar where I also saw people eating.Dietary restrictions: There were vegan, vegetarian, fish, and meat options.Kid-friendliness: I did not bring kids but saw some children here.

Fun experience! I went for my 40th bday many years ago and again recently because a friend of mine brought me as a belated bday dinner. We went on a Sunday night and it wasn't packed. We ordered the dinner for two option and it was a lot of food!! She had the honey lamb and I had the honey chicken. Seems mine was better as she kept finding bones in the dim lighting setting so she stopped eating it. A little disappointed we had to ask for new pita as the first set was hard and chewy when the hummus came out. Service was great though and everyone there had a kind and fun vibe! My friend wasn't happy they added their own gratuity for two people though. Maybe it listed in their menu and maybe she didn't see it nor did I. I've heard of doing that for larger parties but never two people. Overall, great bday spot!! Belly dancer was fun! And we had a great time along with the other parties eating there dancing on stage with the belly dancer.

Had dinner here a couple of weeks ago. A great place to visit with a group. The food was delicious. Unless you’re a big eater I wouldn’t go with a full dinner. I highly recommend El Moracco!

The waiter Billy was very attentive. The owner came out and swung our drunk around for us (so fun!) and the belly dancer invited me up to the stage with her for a bit as well. Really delicious food, great service, and a cozy atmosphere.

Wish we could give 500 stars especially for the service. Our server Alyssa was thoughtful, attentive, and so sweet. Seriously the best server we’ve ever had! She made our first time at El Morroco special and we will definitely be back.

Fun concept, but the waiter shouldn't be working in the service industry. He forgot about a nut allergy despite being reminded twice. Then he wanted to scrape off the nuts which isn't safe. Then he forgot part of our order and didn't notice us trying to flag him down so we never got it. Then he insulted the belly dancer and made a sexual comment about the other dancers. Just not professional or acceptable. Food was okay but kind of dry despite being in a sauce.

It's all a pleasant and delicious experience. You should ask for the full dinner and share because it's a ton of food you would not be able to stop eating! ??
