Run by Moroccans, the food is very tasty but the portions very small and we left thinking it wasn't value for the money. With a few beers we spent 6000 ¥ a head. We ordered à la carte and my "main" course turned out to be a small vegetable pastry more like an appetizer than a main course. My friend had couscous and you would have to order this to help you fill up. The soup and the salad were very nice but very small. There are several set courses from ¥ 3800 - 4600. The ¥ 3800 set has 4 dishes and I doubt it would be enough. Our waiter spoke French, no English and he was unable to answer in basic Japanese our questions about the menu and his recommendations. It is possible that better speakers of Japanese would have got more useful information from him, but we both agreed that his Japanese seemed limited.

A second opinion from a reader:

I was interested to see your review of Agadir the Moroccan rest., particularly because I went there for the first time on Tuesday. It was my girlfriend's birthday and she said she'd like to go there. I've been to Morocco twice so I know a bit about Moroccan food.
We were the only customers - all night! Some of what you say is true, but we had the 3,800 course set and it was enough. However we changed the fried spring roll chicken for a Pastila chicken and if you've ever had one of those you'll know they are filling. The couscous was good. The only things that slightly annoyed me were the drinks: the wine was tasteless, like coloured water, and they did not have mint tea and if you've ever been to M. you'll know they drink mint tea all the time. I found that amazing. In other ways though, I enjoyed the meal."
