La nourriture était délicieuse et l'ambiance était superbe. Il y avait un spectacle de baladi formidable et nous nous sommes bien amusés. Ce fut vraiment une belle expérience.

La Grotte de la Couscoussière d'Ali Baba offers a unique dining experience with its beautiful decor that evokes a Moroccan ambiance. The cave-like setting, adorned with an array of hanging lamps, creates a stunning atmosphere reminiscent of Alibaba's cavern. The restaurant serves a standard five-course menu that includes soup, salad, a main course with a choice of protein and either couscous or tajine, and dessert, typically baklava with Moroccan tea. While many diners appreciate the tender and fresh meat, opinions on the vegetables and overall food quality vary, with some describing the dishes as mediocre and lacking flavor.
Service at the restaurant has received mixed reviews. While some guests found the staff friendly and accommodating, others felt neglected, citing slow service and a lack of attentiveness. The belly dancing show, which is part of the evening entertainment, has also drawn mixed reactions, with some enjoying it while others were disappointed by its execution.
Despite some concerns about food and service, many diners left with positive impressions and recommended the restaurant for its unique atmosphere and tasty food. However, potential visitors should be aware that parking is limited, and it’s advisable to arrive early. Overall, La Grotte de la Couscoussière d'Ali Baba provides an enjoyable experience that many would consider revisiting.
