Mozo Restaurant

We really had a fantastic and authentic dinner here. I loved that there was a miniature version of the Bastilla which I was dying to try. The pastry was nice and flaky, a bit sweet from the powdered sugar which is a tasty contrast with the chicken on the inside. I took the pea soup which I really enjoyed as well. I continued with the cous cous with the mixed grill which was cooked to perfection 🤤. My friends took the veal tajine which looked to be excellent. Closed everything off with some nice ice cream on top of an almond waffle. Would love to come again to try the rest. What I really enjoyed most though was when paying the chef from the kitchen genuinely wanted to know how I liked the food. He seemed to really care about their guests having a tasty evening!

As a Moroccan myself, I went to this restaurant with low expectations, thinking that the food won’t taste authentic but I have to admit that it does taste like homemade Moroccan food, 100% authentic! When I told the waiter he explained that they don’t skip any step when cooking these traditional Moroccan dishes which preserves the real taste of the dishes. The staff were very friendly and welcoming as well. My only remark is that the music choices can be better, I suggest more classic Moroccan music, Lmal7oun, Tarab Andalousi… to make the experience of enjoying Moroccan food even more authentic. N.B: Dutchies, please stop mixing couscous with Tagine, we don’t do that!! Tagine is eaten with bread while couscous is eaten the way it is with a spoon/fork 😌

This small local Moroccan restaurant is a great recommendation to explore Moroccan cuisine. It was authentic! Service was superb and atmosphere cozy and homey. My favorite part was everything heated so well like home! I had the pea soup and the infamous Moroccan tea that were heated to the right temperature. My first spoon of soup warmed my heart. Recommend hearing the bread too. Great choice and music was exact with the ambiance!

I came here with a group of friends. The atmosphere is very cool they gave us a big table since we were a large group. We ate the delicious food. They also have a vegetarian option which I really appreciated. We also had tea, very tasty and recommended. The service was good and even though we were a bog group it did not take long for the meals to arrive a day they did not make any confusion or errors in preparing the food. Very nice Moroccan restaurant. Even my Moroccan friend confirmed. I would recommend!!

1 word: AMAZING. truly a hidden gem in de Pijp. the chefs make the most amazing traditional Moroccan dishes. the portions were generous as well. thanks to the waiters: the service was extraordinary. you were kind and very attentive, making sure everyone was having a good time. “Besaha!“

The restaurant has nice decorations. It has two seating areas, upstairs and downstairs. Each seating area can seat 10 people. The owners and staff are a family from Northern Morocco. The loose leaf tea list is extensive. The tajines, bastilla, hummus, and olives are excellent.
