philadelphia's worst restaurant

Provided by Citysearch

we tried this restaurant after trying another similar style Moroccan restaurant a couple of months ago. we were completely disappointed and will never go back there. even though there were no smoking signs, the restaurant smelled like a middle eastern coffee house, where people sit and smoke all day. the service was horrible (no smile or accommodation of our requests from the person waiting our table). compared to the other place, we got less food for 4 people compared to the plenty of food we were served at the other one for 2. at the end of our 7-course-meal, we were still hungry (none of us are obese, or even over weight)! it costed us around $140 for 4 people (no alcohol included). almost 1/3 of the things listed on their website for 7-course-meal was not served or not available (with no explanation as a courtesy - of course we were not even provided a menu listing what would be served probably to cover this up). in addition, some guy (assuming the owner) came to our table and asked our permission to smoke pipe! when we said it is already smoky and it bothers us as is, his response was ""no, this is a non-smoking place."" i guess that meant it was non-smoking for guests that do not like smelly places while they eat! i would strongly recommend you avoid going there. it is a complete rip off! all of us agreed that this was the worst experience ever for us.
