Reviews for Kasbah Garden Cafe in New Haven, CT
An adorable garden restaurant in the heart of New Haven. A true find. The lamb tagine is absolutely divine. The fish tagine was... also quite tasty. Definitely would recommend on a beautiful afternoon or evening. Has BYOB for dining, and also dog friendly. Read more
This place redefines falafel to be this fried yellow tasteless goop that is not the Lebanese, middle eastern variety. Tahini is... ok and likely out of a can, Dolma is good and likely out of a can, Babaghanoush is a tasteless blob. Had to abandon and go toanother dinner place. The only saving grace is the backyard setting with one (only one) friendly, fast staff. Read more
Please read the whole review. We almost turned around it the door because the please looks a bit outdated and not very well... maintained. But we have it a try... The food was very good and well portioned and priced. The owner was very hospitable andhelpful not to mention he is also the cook and?was extremely fast serving. This place has a lot more of potential but ownerneeds to invest a bit more of time cleaning and organizing. Overall we had a good experience. Read more

The atmosphere was relaxing, food was delicious, the restaurant is on my top 5 of New Haven CT. I look forward to my next time.... I loved the inside decor. I met the owner/chef so nice. Read more
We went in with a lot of expectation. We LOVE Middle Eastern food. The place looks overall very unmaintained - the building, the... outside etc. The only part of the decor that we liked were the charming, oriental lamps. The service was polite but careless.She forgot our tea. We had to remind her after waiting for 30 min. The food took another 30 min. We ordered chicken couscous andkefta tagine. The couscous, the vegetables that came with the couscous, the bread and the tagine were all mediocre. The chickenitself was tasty, but it was basically spiced adobo rub. The price was very good. We had a pot of tea, and our dinner. The totalbill was $33+. We are probably not going back. But we did see the place has a fan-following. In our opinion, it had potential tobe a charming place, but turned out not to be so. Read more
Delicious food, moderate prices and a lush outdoor garden all add to a great experience. It's a quiet oasis in a sea of... activity. Service is excellent, home made lemonade and savory dishes that include a delicious appetizer plate, lamb, freshveggies as well as fish. Good choices for vegans. And don't miss dessert! Read more
Indoor and outdoor decor is outstanding and the place is very homey. The owner is beyond nice, served us nearly at closing, and... had a pleasant conversation with a family member of ours who was asking him silly questions before we left. There's nothing todislike here. The food was good and very reasonable and our waiter was super chill and attentive, even though it was (again)nearly closing time. I have a lot of good restaurants in my area (Long Island) but this is one I wish I could steal and add tothe list because unfortunately I was away visiting family! Read more
