AMAZING Moroccon Food

by DanielL at Citysearch

This restaurant was amazing!

The food was great and the service was amazing.

The outside of the restaurant may not look like much but the inside looks like a whole different place. It's almost like I just walked into Morocco.

I recommend this for anyone who wants an outstanding dinning experience and especially recommend the 50% off coupon.

Oh! Almost forgot to mention the belly dancers! Never thought I would learn to dance like that but with there help and my friends pushing me to the dance floor I got it down.

Great Moroccan food and entertainment!!!!!

by Queen of the Area at Citysearch

My friends and i used a discount coupon at the restaurant that worked very well. The waiter was very cute and explained everything so my friends could know about the menu.The decor is very colorful w/ Morrocan rugs on the walls, a tent overhead, fancy lamps, beautiful lacquered tables The dancer was very good, she looked like she knew what she was doing, and then she read tarot cards and that added to the evening. that is included w/ the dinner---i just gave her a few dollars as a tip for being so sweet. The food was tasty as it was before---i love the lamb w/ honey. I have some friends in a bellydance class---i'll get them to come next week.

A Really Fun and Friendly Place

by Zoey18 at Citysearch

I went to Babouch for the first time last Tuesday and had a blast!! It was my friend's birthday, and she chose the place. We both live near San Pedro, and have heard about the restaurant, but never tried it before.

I just loved the decor!! Really unususal. The food was different, but really tasty. And then the belly dancer came. It was the blonde one,the one that is on the front page of their website. She was really engaging, and everybody in the restaurant got up to dance with her. It was a lot of fun!! We also got an amazing tarot card reading. I will be back..

Unforgettable Experience

by stephhh310 at Citysearch

So it was my birthday not too long ago and my father decided to surprise me by bringing me here, Babouch Restaurant, It was such a great experience for me, it was quite surprising to know that a place that this is located in San Pedro. So just to share a bit of my experience at Babouch, first off they had such delicious food, it definitely had a different flavor from most food I've tried and that is what i liked most about it. It was my first time trying Rabbit and as unusual as it may sound it was delicious. The music, decorations, and entertainment(belly dancers) totally made me feel as if i had just stepped into a completely different part of the world. They provided very friendly customer service & even the palm/tarot card reader even made part of the night even more fun! I am so glad i got to spend my birthday at a place so great.From the food, entertainment,drinks and environment, it was overall fantastic! I would highly recommend Babouch to anyone looking for a good time and unforgettable experience!
