Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Falafel: Well seasoned, crispy outside, and served piping hot!"
  • "The spicy tomato sauce they gave us on the side was indeed spicy, but full of flavor."
  • "The food was amazing and well-seasoned."
  • "Their flafel and hummus is one of the best ones I've had."
  • "Lamb Tagine: Amazing! This lamb was fall off the bone, sauce was impeccable with notes of sweetness from the apricot and prunes, and the rice was actually super flavorful!!"
  • "The mezze platter was good, and the eggplant was our favorite."
  • "Great lamb and chicken tagines, really satisfying and complex cocktails, and great desserts."

Cons:

  • "It wasn't the best flavor wise, lacked a bit of seasoning & my fries came out a little darker than I'd expected."
  • "However, the lamb shank tasted like it was not lamb, but of goat."
  • "Bastella was lacking in flavor."
  • "The pita bread portions felt stingy."
  • "However, the lamb was a bit dry to taste, but the sauce made up for it."
  • "The chicken kebab, rice and Vegetable kebab were way overcooked. Nothing had any flavor."
  • "The only reason I didn't opt for 5 stars was the lack of flavor in the Spritz."

Service

Pros:

  • "Everything our lovely servers recommended to us was amazing."
  • "After an initial mishap with service, I was reached out to by a staff member of the restaurant with a generous invitation to return and a promise for better service."
  • "Highly recommend!"
  • "Lovely serving staff. Had a great visit."
  • "Ky was there and she was super friendly."
  • "The waitress was very helpful and attentive. Great service over all."
  • "Service was super friendly."

Cons:

  • "While the service was a tad slow, the key is to plan ahead and order everything at once."
  • "She seemed very busy. And when our food arrived she didn't come to check on us at all."
  • "They told us that 'it was not allowed' to sit at our table if the full group was not there."
  • "We had one main server assigned to our table who was a bit underwhelming."
  • "Our waitress was polite, but in a hurry, she gave us the check while we were still eating."
  • "Service was very long and disorganized… large tables who arrived after us were served before our table."
  • "However, after we had the food the expectation was that the waitress would offer us desserts or tea. Instead she rudely just chucked the bill at us and left."

Ambiance

Pros:

  • "Cafe Mogador in Williamsburg is a true delight, offering a charming indoor and outdoor dining experience."
  • "The restaurant was dim lit with cozy vibes."
  • "I loved their interior design which they had a terrace at the back-i think they open windows during warmer days-."
  • "Great Place for any occasion. Very comfy, rustic and romantic."
  • "This place has beautiful interior giving you Moroccan vibes."
  • "The atmosphere is very well put together but the garden could use a little love."
  • "The place is really 'aesthetic' (as my teenager would say!)."

Cons:

  • "The only thing that I don't like is that as soon as you finish eating, waiters try to kick you out asap."
  • "The atmosphere in the restaurant was not at all as great as when I visited it years ago."
  • "The only negative was loud music that it was hard to have a conversation with my friends."
  • "The spacing didn't really feel like 6ft apart and the waiter didn't check back during any point of the visit to see if our order came out to specifications."
  • "The restaurant is very busy so it can be a bit loud so not great for having conversations."
  • "The lighting in the restaurant is on the dim side."
  • "Unfortunately I will never eat here again!"
