Les Oudayas - Paris 11e Arrondissement

Very simple and affordable (15 euros) for amateurs of Moroccan food, not only couscous but all sorts of Tagines. Pretty large servings. Basic but good for the price.

Learned to love Moroccan food here, friendly service, good food, good value. I now cook Moroccan food at home now!!

Great food. Taste like amazing home scrubber, savoury and scrumptuous. Very cheap by Parisian default, friendly staff.

Had an awesome evening for my birthday and a major role was played by this place. First of all be aware it is not a luxurious place. No frills but it is a nice room, not big but very warm and welcoming. I liked the decor and ambience, a bit messy but authentic. The owner is a great lad, came to shake my hand on arrival even if I was a complete stranger. So the meal was just amazing. On arrival we were served a small bowl of spiced boiled potatos. Perfect nibble before dinner. I wasn't quite sure what to order, maybe tagine. But then I spotted a nice dish on the table next to mine and asked for that one. It was cous cous agneaux, huge slow cooked lamb shank served with cous cous and vegetable broth on the side. My girlfriend had a chicken cous cous. The meat was great, big, tender and cooked to perfection. The cous cous was a huge portion with a huge pan of veggie broth to pour on top, so that it gets a bit moist. Bottle of moroccan red wine surprised me a lot, never had moroccan wine before but it was awesome. For dessert we had mint tea and some moroccan pastries (honey based I think). Every little thing was good and the owner was very nice talking to us. It is a typical experience, if you are too judgmental or fussy on restaurants maybe this is not the place for you, but if you are hungry and seek something original then go there.

Ne vous fiez pas à l'extérieur. Rentrez commandez et régalez-vous. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Allez y
