It was my first time trying Moroccan food, and it was a really great experience. The food was delicious, and the service was extremely, extremely good. I highly recommend everyone to visit this place

I booked two tickets for a belly dance event and arrived on time, only to find out the performance had been canceled with no prior notice. No one informed us—we had to ask ourselves after waiting more than 20 minutes past the scheduled show time. Had we known in advance, I would not have ordered food. I also mentioned to the staff that this should have been communicated before we ordered the food or when they got to know the dance was cancelled as the order was to support the business and the belly dance event.

The food was way overpriced and bland. They offered an extra mint tea, but both were cold and flavorless. While the staff was polite, gratuity was added to the bill without our consent or any disclosure. The least they could have done was inform us, especially since we were there specifically for the belly dance and ordered dinner to support the business. Overall, the experience felt unethical and disappointing.

PS. I did confirm before going into the restaurant about the show. It should have been informed to us while we sat down and before we ordered food

There is no where like this place!! One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. The ambience is amazing! The entire place is stunning visually, especially the seating. Nadir, the owner, is hospitable and funny. The food was amazing (best falafel ever!!) We had the best time and will definitely go again if we have the chance. Can’t recommend enough!!

This weekend, we had the absolute pleasure of dining at El Morocco for their weekend brunch, and I can confidently say it was the best brunch I’ve ever had. The service was flawless, the food was pure perfection, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting.

I’m notoriously picky, especially with egg dishes, but every bite was bursting with flavor and flawlessly prepared. They excel in everything from sweet to savory, with a menu so thoughtfully crafted it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. I tried both their coffees, which were rich, aromatic, and perfectly brewed, and they were absolutely fantastic.

The place itself is gorgeous. It is beautifully decorated with stunning Middle Eastern carpets, lanterns, and cozy seating, making it a very charming and comfortable setting to sit and enjoy a meal. On top of the amazing brunch, they also serve traditional Middle Eastern dishes and offer a wonderful dinner menu every day, which I can’t wait to explore further.

If you are not into belly dancers, no worries. They do not have them every night, so you can call ahead when making a reservation to confirm.

After this visit, I am already planning to become a regular at El Morocco. It is an unforgettable dining experience that I highly recommend to anyone!

This place was a pleasant surprise in Concord.
It was morrocon vibe in bay area minus the hookah. Food tasted excellent. Great tea. I went on a Saturday and there was a belly dance show. We absolutely enjoyed our time. It was a wholesome experience. The service was slow- but it was acceptable. As a vegetarian, I had decent options. Would definitely visit again!

We found this place since the other breakfast place we wanted to go to had a 2 hour wait. I was glad we were able to get a table here. The owner was very welcoming and gave us great suggestions on what to order. There were 3 of us and we were quite hungry.

Their coffee was very delicious and made to order. It didn’t need much milk or sugar and was not too bitter which was nice. Moroccans really make good coffee. We ordered a crepe with berries and whipped cream. The crepe was well cooked and the berries and whipped cream paired nicely together. The Bastilla was a phyllo dough stuffed with ground chicken, scrambled eggs, almonds and then topped with powdered sugar. It was crispy and a different texture all together. If I were to order again I would get without the powdered sugar. The Shakshuka was the best. I could’ve ordered a few orders of that. They serve it with some flat bread you use to pick it up and with the egg on top it made it extra delicious. It was a good mix of vegetables and tomatoes and spices and it just all melded well together.
Glad we found this place and hope to stop by for dinner and to watch the belly dancer next time we are in town.

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.

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!
