Moltaqa Moroccan Restaurant - Yaletown

“Had an amazing experience at Moltaqa Restaurant. The Moroccan food was incredible—rich, authentic flavours and beautifully presented. The standout for me was definitely the rack of lamb: perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavour. Service was also excellent. Our server Naz was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out perfectly throughout the meal. The belly dancer show was a fun and unexpected highlight that added a great energy to the evening and made the experience even more memorable. Overall, a solid 5-star experience. Would definitely come back again.”

“First time trying this Moroccan restaurant and overall it was really good 🤍We ordered the ribs and the beef tajine with rice. The ribs were definitely my favorite — perfectly cooked, super tender, flavorful, and seasoned so well. You have to try the Moroccan tea to complete the experience ✨The vibe of the place was amazing, with live music playing which made the whole experience feel even more special. I’d definitely come back to try more dishes.”

“My girlfriends and I came to Moltaqa Café for their Iftar special, and it was truly the little night out we all needed. From the moment we walked in, the vibes were immaculate 😍warm, cozy, and beautifully designed in a way that genuinely makes you feel like you’ve stepped somewhere in Morocco.🥰🇲🇦 The food was incredible. And when I say incredible, I mean it satisfied every craving, hunger, and thirst we endured before breaking our fast. A solid 11/10- Absolutely mouth-watering. 🤤Everything tasted intentional, comforting, and full of flavour. There was one sauce in particular that I’m *still* thinking about days later 🤤 that’s how good it was! The portions were generous and the prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality of food and experience. The atmosphere is cozy, elegant, and aesthetically pleasing in a way that makes you want to settle in, slow down, and enjoy the moment and your meal with the people you’re with. What really made the night special, though, was the staff. They were so kind, warm, and welcoming ☺️🙏🏽 the hosting and service were amazing. After dinner we were taking a few photos, and one of the staff members kindly offered to take some for us and made sure we got the perfect shots. It was such a small gesture but it really reflected the genuine hospitality we felt all evening. Overall, Moltaqa created such a beautiful Iftar experience for us. Amazing food, wonderful service, great prices, and an atmosphere that makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend!”

“This was our first time here. The host was very friendly and provided great service. We ordered the Chilled Eggplant Dip as a starter, along with the Lamb Shank Tagine – Lemon & Saffron and the Harissa Spicy Chicken Kebab as main dishes. The lamb was good but more medium-well than well done, which is our preference. We enjoyed the chicken more. Overall, it was nice to try Moroccan cuisine for the first time, but we expected a bit more from the signature dishes considering the price and portion sizes. The biggest downside was the atmosphere. The music was extremely loud, with both background music and a live singer playing at the same time. We could barely hear the waitress or have a proper conversation with our friends. It would have also been nice if the menu included pictures of the meals. Since it’s an ethnic cuisine, it can be difficult to imagine what the dishes look like before ordering.”

“We went to Moltaqa Moroccan Restaurant to celebrate my friend’s birthday. Overall, it was a good experience. The place was quite loud, especially later in the evening, and the vibe was very lively. There was also some Arabic dancing, which was interesting and added something different to the night. At one point, there were a few very intoxicated people near the entrance, which was a bit surprising to see. The food was okay (6/10). We personally would have preferred more rice and fresher dishes. The atmosphere was nice (7/10), but it could feel more authentically Arabic. Overall, still a good place for a celebration if you’re looking for a lively night out.”
