• Ambience, couscous and the flakey pastry with ground meat pretty good.
• not worth it for the price; chicken and lamb just average;

“This is a must read review. I celebrated my birthday at Koutoubia restaurant in Los Angeles and unfortunately I did not have the best experience. Overall, the restaurant ambience is beautiful and romantic gives you a glimpse of Morocco and hence why I celebrated my birthday here. However, the food is not as pleasing to the palate as it should have been for the price that was paid for the meal. $33.00 per meal! This price excludes tip and tax and the $10.00 Moroccan martini that is encouraged by the owner. I wasnt too sure of her role but she was kind of pushy on the drinks. Back to the food, the salad, couscous and a flakey pastry with ground meat was good, however, the main dishes like the chicken was dry and the lamb just average; both meats lacked seasoning and robust flavoring. The food portions are small too. The main reason for my writing this review is this. Toward the end of my celebration, he informs me that I owe an additional $330.00 for ten guests that did not arrive, mind you if the guests did not arrive; they did not order and thus did not eat! I was shocked that he would make this claim, for I had previously informed him 4 days before my birthday dinner that I will need an itemized check for my guests. Nevertheless, to make a long story short, I did not pay the $330.00 and learned a good lesson from this experience if you plan to have a birthday celebration at Koutoubia.”

• Great for dates or birthdays, Martinis.
• Belly dancing on weekends only.

“I took my girlfriend here for our anniversary last tuesday. There weren't many people inside, so the dim lights really set the stage for a special night. All the food was exotic, but really good (and I'm a steak and potatoes kind of guy). Most importantly, my girlfriend couldn't believe I had found such a romantic place to spend our night. ”

• Lamb, couch .
• Some of the pillows that you lean on were itchy.

“the lamb was DELICIOUS and great couch. Friday & Saturday nights at 7:30 and 9:30 they have a belly dancer. And the appetizer with the goat cheese stuffed pastry is very good.”
