We came here for our flat dinner because we wanted to save money. It didn't help when we spend money on before dinner and after dinner drinks.
This place is more of a cafe rather than a "fine dining restaurant".
The decor is very "safari" and very morocco (not that I've been there).
Items Ordered:
Chicken Bruchette
Lamb Bruchette
Royal Bruchette
Bruchette means kebab. It is served with salad and either chips or rice. The Royal Bruchette is a combination of all meats. Their menu also included targines, but we decided not to order it.
The Royal Bruchette includes chicken skewers, lamb skewers and kofta (mince). They ran out of lamb skewers and gave us two chicken skewers instead. They did this without telling us...so that was not very nice when we had to ask why there were no lamb skewers to find out they were out of lamb skewers.
This place was understaffed. Service was slow and unprofessional. Staff were not attentive.
Food: 6/10

Now the first time I came here was for supper, and then again for lunch with Ernie & Iris. This place gets busy in the afternoon. It has a very cool "safari" theme tent inside seating which is cool.
Items Ordered:
(1) Mixed Shish: a combo of chicken breast pieces, lamb pieces, and beef sausage. Chicken was well marinated but a bit dry. Sausage was salty and dry. Lamb was really good. The mint sauce is awesome! A very filling dish for $14.
(2) Lamb Shish: lots of lamb for only $14, this is totally worth it. Everything on it is nice.
(3) Hot Chocolate: not too sweet, which is what I like; but could do with a bit more chocolate taste. I guess they use powder, so the more powder would increase the intensity, but made it so much sweeter....
----
Overall Experience:
The shish is similar to the iskander, except the meats are whole instead of carved. Go for the shish.
Cheap, fast and good food in a quite a cool environment.
Conclusion:
Food: 7/10
Service: 76/10
Value for Money: 8.5/10
Probability of Returning: 65%
