It's was our first time, and sadly, they will be closing at the end of the month. Wish I had known about this restaurant sooner. The food is super yummy, and the staff are the nicest and friendliest. It was such a great experience, especially getting to see the belly dancer up close. Definitely recommend even if they are closing soon.
Absolutely amazing Ambiance and food. Definitely worth coming down and getting the five course feast before they close their doors permanently on August 26th after 45 years of doing business in San Pedro. Just another casualty of covid and being forced to pay the property owner double the rent to make up for when the government shut everything down.
The owner here is very racist towards black people. While I can respect that they have a dress code it should be enforced for everyone. He denied service to a black couple for having shorts on however in the video that’s now viral it shows white women wearing the exact same shorts but he didn’t deny them service. During slavery black people were denied education, drinking from the same fountain as white people, etc and now being denied nutrition for wearing the same thing as other customers. This is wrong.
This was my fourth time to dine at this restaurant. We only eat here with groups of family or friends, on special occasions. This was celebrating New Year's Eve Day, 2023. We always have to make reservations first, before dinning at this restaurantThe restaurant opens in the evenings . And only dinner is served here. Breakfast or lunch is not served here.The restaurant walls decorations and seats are absolutely magnificent. And the food here is great too, with an African touch. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is always fantastic.The waitresses are very professional and again the food is always delicious.We all loved and enjoyed the "Belly Dancer", the lady. Her dances are so heavenly, with her special traditional Moroccan Angel- like - Attires. That made our night very special, and memorable.The restaurant have parking area at the back. And have handicapped accessible doors.
Food is delicious! I had the kabob dinner w rice. Ordered some traditional mint tea. Wow! What n experience...they bring a washbowl to wash your habdsbefore you eat. Now you are ready for your fast! Then you watch a belly dance show ( call and ask when the dancer is there).

I give 5 stars because my friends and I had a great time there. The performer was professional and lovely. She taught us how to dance and everyone really enjoyed the time. The server and bartender were very friendly. It was impressive that the food was good too. I like this place.

Fun!Great atmosphere and decor...we saw Belly Dancing!The service was amazing....our server was so on top of it...and she was solo! We never waited and she remembered everything. And the Bartender has us taken care of tooGood Chicken Kebabs and Falafel (maybe just a touch dry)....great couscous and rice. Chicken Tagine is great....super tender chicken and good broth!Mint Tea is a touch sweet but tasty

I had a wonderful experience at this cozy Middle Eastern restaurant! The place exudes a unique Middle Eastern vibe that instantly transports you to the region. My host was very friendly and welcoming, and the highlight of the experience was when she washed our hands with rosewater, which was an interesting touch.I opted for the appetizers, and they were simply delicious! I'm sure the entrees would be just as good. If you're looking for some entertainment, don't miss out on their belly dancing and other shows that start at 8 pm. The atmosphere is perfect for a night out with friends or a romantic dinner with your partner.Overall, I highly recommend this place. The food, service, and ambiance are top-notch, and it's definitely worth a visit!
I attended a private party here. It's a fun place for a party, plenty of seating, dancing room and a full bar. The beef they served was so tender and juicy everyone at the table talked about it. The chicken was a little salty but all in all the food was good. I'm going to dry this place for a regular dining experience soon.

The food was horrible, the atmosphere, the crew was awesome but stay away from ordering food. It tasted like a microwaved food. After this place we had to stop by at jack in the box.
Beautiful Moroccan themed dinning rooms. Excellent service, food was on point, and the hosts were very helpful. I really enjoyed the belly dancers too. If you enjoy new experiences you should definitely try Babouch, you won't be disappointed.
Don't let the exterior fool you. Live music, dancers, and great food/drinks make this a romping good time for an evening out with friends. Plan to stay late if you go by!
Atmosphere and food was great. The specialty cocktails were really good as well. I just wish they had more staff. We waited 30 minutes for the tea at the end of the meal with the check. I wish the belly dancer performed longer. She was delightful. Friendly, gave us food suggestions and was a lovely dancer
Reasonably priced food ...delicious... great friendly owners... wonderful environment and belly dance shows... the best dancer I've seen is Katarina she balances swords and a tray of candles
