This was not at this location, and according to one of the other gentleman that worked there this ace has not been there for a while.

Chef Amal is the sweetest, and her food is incredible. I usually stop by the Piedmont Green Market to get a breakfast pita wrap from her on the way to tennis (tip: add the harissa!), but am always happy to find new locations where Marrakech is popping up. The food is so flavorful -- I love the Tanjiya (a savory, garlicky-cumin-lemon chicken dish), and the baba ghanoush is also incredible. Thank you for introducing me to a new cuisine + doing it with such kindness!

this is not your typical Moroccan restaurant with real Moroccan food. Don't get me wrong, it's delcicoud but deinfitely not moroccan. Moroccan food is not middle eastern, Persian, Greek or Israeli. It's totally different. It's not MIDDLE EASTERN food !!! It's not African food with Beber tradition of olive oil, tanginess, and absolutely nothing Persian about it.Again, good restaurant but it is not Moroccan food. I am Moroccan and I can tell you it is not.

Chef Amal knows what she's DOING. Sadly she is only at the EAV food hall on Friday during lunch currently, but I am so glad we stopped in randomly for lunch on a Friday. We had no particular plans for what food to get, and after she offered a sample of her eggplant, we knew we needed more! We had an veggie plate and a chicken plate. Each comes with the main stewed item, some rice, green beans, hummus and pita, and some of her homemade hot sauce. Do not forego the hot sauce, it is the perfect amount of spicy and so full of flavor! If you're not a spice lord though no worries, her food is incredible with or without the hot sauce. The chicken was so tender, it was falling apart under my fork, and I felt so nourished. The green beans are amazing and so is the eggplant. If I wasn't typically working on Fridays I'd be here every week and I can tell she has quite a few regulars.

Got it at the Georgia Tech pop up stand. Everything about the food is amazing (from the tenderness of the chicken to the salad), the quantity is great, staff is super friendly, and pricing is very reasonable. Highly recommend

I am not a food court kind of guy and hate formulaic trendy spots. This place breaks the mold. I had an awesome, perfectly cooked and huge lamb shank platter. One woman behind the counter does it all. She was fantastic, kind and friendly even when she was at her busiest. You need to go but be patient as word has gotten out about this place and her line may be longer than others in the food court.
The lamb tanjiya is fantastic and fairly priced. The spicy hummus is fresh and has a light smoky flavor (perhaps from charred eggplants or red pepper), which I'm surprisingly fond of. Chef Amal is very kind and friendly even when she's super busy :) Will definitely visit again!!

I have forgotten how urban lunching is like. Going into the City to get a take out for a picnic lunch. Marrakech Express is one of the vendor in the Food Court in mid-town. Obvious their clientele is the It takes some maneuvering through the concrete buildings to find it, but the Service was fast and friendly. The limited menu offers is limited; and I think the main entrees changes frequently. In other words, they served seasonal ingredients. Very delicious Lamb Shank I gotten. The special Morocan Coffee and Ice Tea were different but delicious drinks.

The best lamb shank I've ever had..... the tajine is better than some of the ones I had in Morocco and you can taste the time and effort that goes into everything. Would recommend getting the Harissa as well.

This place serves absolutely delicious food. I got the chicken shawarma, and it was amazing. They always give you lots of hummus, and serve it with super hot and tasty pita bread. They served it with plenty of rice and sauce, and it came out super fast, even though they were one of the busiest places at Colony Square. I ordered the atay (mint iced tea) as well, and I highly recommend it. Also, the owner & her husband at the counter were super nice! 5/5 stars.
