Reviews for Marrakesh Moroccan Restaurant in Clifton Park, NY

Surprisingly better than expected! I would say the food is most similar to Greek/Mediterranean foods. I ordered the mint tea,... and a chicken kabob. I would highly recommend!! The tea was very flavorful, and tasted like it was made of actual mint leavesand not artificial. The kabob was very good, and came with veggies, couscous, and a salad. I'm not sure what kind of dressingthey put on the salad, but need to find out, it was so delicious!! I will definatley return. Read more

They are very nice here but did not have wine or beer which would have been nice as it was our date night. The food was super... rich but this was my first time having Moroccan. Not for me. The staff was very courteous and helped us select some things. Theambience needs to be warmed up. I always envision Moroccan culture as warm and colorful. The strip mall environment was chillyin temperature and the windows would look so good if they just added some draped curtains. Red would be amazing. Also add somevotives as the pictures make it look like a place to sink into. The more traditional seating area is near but quite small. Foodwas well done, it?s just not my thing. Read more

My girlfriend and I do not eat out much but when we do we like to get ethnic cuisine. I had read about Marrakesh in the Daily... Gazette so we figured we would give it a try. The evening we visited it was not busy so we had our choice of seats (and they dooffer traditional seating on cushions on the floor). You can see that a lot of care and thought went into the layout and menu.Yes, it is in a strip mall location but besides that a lot of thought went in to this restaurant in attempting to bring thetaste and feel of Morocco to the Capital Region. (After I visited I was speaking with a coworker and she informed me it was herhusband who had started the restaurant. They are both from Morocco so they have a great understanding and love of the food andculture) The waitress was quite attentive and we got our food quickly. The food is traditional and well prepared. Both of ourmain courses were excellent. Dessert with traditional Moroccan coffee was a fine ending to an excellent evening. Definitely notyour usual fare for Clifton Park but well worth it if you want to eat Moroccan food prepared and served well. Read more

Food and decor are delightful. The head chef (owner also perhaps?) was super attentive and chatted with us a bit about the... recipes and history. Was really cool. Lots of tasty vegan options and carnivore plates as well. Not much for dessert but theysaid menu expanding soon. Really enjoyable night out. Even my 9 year old loves it. Read more
