We went to Aziza for the first time for dinner with a couple who had been on a trip to Morocco with us. We shared a spacious table for four and had a leisurely dinner. Appetizers included lentil soup poured over an arrangement of flowers and lentil that looked beautiful And tasted equally good. The traditional dish, pastilla, was given... More

The three of us went there and had a great time. Was a bit disappointed in the decor, a bit sterile and half casual half formal, a bit confused. The banquettes were a comfortable place to sit, the other tables and chairs are a bit cafeteria. That said, there's quite a bit of noise coming from the very active bar,... More

When I was young I had a best friend who was Israeli from Moroccan heritage. The smells in her mother's kitchen were intoxicating and I enjoyed it when I got to taste her food. As an adult I tried to recreate the smells and tastes from memory and finally discovered the spices I needed. Flash forward to my purchasing Mourad's... More

Aziza was a delightful experience. Upon seating us, the hostess noticed that we were not completely happy with our table. She came back a minute later and offered to re-seat us. This level of care set a very positive tone for our evening. The wait staff was attentive with out being over bearing. Our meal became a delicious, unrushed exploration... More

If you are willing to be adventurous, start your evening with a cocktail! Contemporary ingredients are used imaginatively to create sensational, fresh-tasting and beautifully colored libations. Even the menu has evolved at this delightful fine dining destination: most dishes aren't named, but a list of their principal ingredients gives you an idea of what to expect; e.g.: "short rib, carrot...

We had dinner at Aziza, mainly due to the positive feedback on TA and also the Michelin star it acquired. We were about half an hour early for our reservation and were asked to wait for about 15 minutes before they were able to seat us. Not a problem. The food was good. Can't say we are experts in Moroccan... More

Took my wife, older son and family, including our 6 year old grand daughter for an early pre-Mother's Day dinner. Aziza is not a place one would normally take a 6 year old but our evening worked out perfectly. The service was impeccable, including the patience needed to deal with a lovely but very curious young person. We started, unusual... More

This is not a cheap date restaurant, so be ready to pay for the meal, but it was well worth every penny! We did the $95 Tasting menu of thirteen entrees, beginning with the incredible asparagus soup and ending with a little bag of granola to take home and enjoy the next morning. Every dish was incredibly tasty AND beautifully... More

Great tasting food with a Moroccan flair but not strictly Moroccan. Also, gratefully reasonable portions so little chance of that "overstuffed" feeling you might get when quality has been confused with quantity. More

We were recommended this restaurant as a place to visit and it exceeded our expectations. We had the tasting menu, which from memory was about 10 courses and took us three and a half hours. Every dish was a fine treat for the taste buds and we are still talking about individual parts on the menu two weeks into our... More
