Went a couple of weeks ago with a friend. Service was lovely. The place was very cute and welcoming, with moroccan decorations that made you feel you were somewhere in Morocco. The food was delicious, very authentic. We enjoyed a chicken tajine, beautifully cooked, tender, flavoursome, and piping hot, served with warm bread on the side that kept coming as the basket was getting empty. We finished with a proper Atay ( moroccan mint tea) . Will definitely recommend it. Shoukran Bzef !!

What an amazing find. This Moroccan restaurant about a 5 minute walk from The Lyceum Theatre gave us the most wonderful pre-theatre lunch. There were seven of us ranging from a 9-year old to grandparents. It was a beautiful day so we sat outside. Our waiter was fabulous and our meals were magnificent. I'd read some pretty awful reviews about this restaurant and was quite concerned but there was no need. We all had different main courses, each one arrived beautifully presented, piping hot and tasting delicious. Very varied menu and quite exceptional. We'll definitely be going back

The only truly authentic Moroccan restaurant I know in the UK. A wide selection of traditional Moroccan dishes with a few Mediterranean staples. Everything on the menu has been a delight. I would definitely recommend!

Delicious authentic Moroccan food! I highly recommend the lamb tagine - the meat was extremely tender. The chicken skewers and starters were also very tasty. The service was extremely kind. The food was prepared very quickly. The prices were very affordable given the high quality.

We had a very pleasant evening at Bab Mansour. The staff was very courteous and the food was authentic and delicious. The way our Moroccan mother would cook it. Price was on the expensive side though! The lamb couscous is a must.

Fantastic experience here. Super cheerful and nice staff. Helped us pick out good options on the menu. The atmosphere was great, felt like an authentic family run eatery. Even better, the food did not disappoint. It was so really well prepared and so flavorful. Delicious, well priced and friendly. We'll definitely be coming back and bringing friends too

The food here is lovely! We sat outside as it was a very warm day. We enjoyed a selection of starters; calamari, meeguez and halloumi. All tasty. For mains, we had sea bass which is served with chips and salad, prawn tajine and lamb tajine. We finished off with a selection of baklava and a small pot of morrocan mint tea. All delicious ! Would definitely come again. Great service as well.

Cosy and authentic Moroccan restaurant. Had some delicious starters and a great meal with the lamb couscous. Terrific service by Sayed and his team. If you are a large group you can ask to be seated downstairs. We had the room to ourselves and it felt like having dinner at a friends house.

We called in for lunch on a Thursday and got a warm welcome from the staff. The food is very good, quality meat and attention to detail was obvious in the salad. The chap who took our order was friendly and happy to chat and the cost was very reasonable

We enjoyed lunch here in early July. The food was fresh, authentic Moroccan and very delicious. The staff was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately it was raining that day so we ate inside, otherwise they offer seating outside. The ambiance is relaxing and a nice way to enjoy an afternoon meal. Their mint tea was superb!

Very, very nice little restaurant! Food was a-maz-ing! The food came out very quickly, and the flavours, wow! Anyone wanting to try morrocan food, try the tajine and definitely the mint tea, is a must try. If theres space, ask to be seated downstairs, & Thank you, we will be back!

Brilliant independent restaurant within 5 minutes walk of Covent Garden. Service was spot on with helpful and knowledgeable people. Food was delicious. When ordering we were told there was a 45 minute wait on the lamb tagine but that we were very welcome to have a drink and eat our starters whenever we wanted. Good communication because it could have been an issue, but it was actually a really nice atmosphere to sit and have a drink with no pressure. All the food we had was very good, the highlight being the kefta tagine (with an egg) which was superb and being able to mop up the juices with the fresh baked flatbread was lovely. Overall bill for 2 courses for 2 people with a bottle of wine and tip included was £85. Would definitely go again.

The food was absolutely gorgeous - very flavoursome without being over powering.. The service is super friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is great. A real gem just a few minutes walk from Covent garden. So glad we decided to try it out and will definitely go back.

5* The most authentic Moroccan restaurant in London, never tried food like this in any other restaurant!! I am beyond impressed and I think everyone should try this restaurant, it makes you feel like you are in Morocco, portions are very good comparing to the prices. Service is amazing, I cannot thank enough the young men working there very helpful very polite and always smile on the face ( I forgot the names unfortunately) apologies. I go to this restuarant as often as I can, but I recommend to anyone who is tired of eating INDIAN and CHINESE for date nights or just to treat themselves. I find this perfect atmosphere for date nights, family dinners and friends lunches. I tried most of the menu LAMB TAGINE was one of the best and most delicious I had its a lamb shank cooked Moroccan way, Pil Pil prawn tagine was fantastic, chicken tagine very very very moroccan. The starters where am i gonna start from, ZAALOUUUK is aubergine grilled must try!! Red beans so niceeee! Mergez was delicious. Breaaaaaaad is YUMMYYYY!

My friend and I, both originally from North Africa and expats, were feeling nostalgic and wanted to a little taste of home. We came across Bab Mansour that serves Moroccan dishes. So it’s a family-owned business and literally it is mama’s cooking! It was the comfort food I was looking for! The couscous was fine and just enough butter to give it flavour. The lamb was melt-in-your-mouth delicious and the veggies were just perfect in the red sauce. I heard the tajine is the absolute best there, but sadly they were out of tajine that evening. I’ll have to go back for the tajine. We finished the night with a nice Moroccan tea. It was just the thing I needed after being in London for a few months without family. Merci infiniment Bab Mansour!

Had a lovely lunch here with a 50% discount via the Fork app. Between the of us we shared a lamb tagine, chicken tagine, lentils, zaalouk, and merguez. It could not compare to what I've had in morrocco but that's to be expected. The tagines were very flavourful and tender, and I would return for that! The lentils converted an ex Lentil hater I was dining with! Service was polite but not overly attentive which I appreciated.

We enjoyed this restaurant very much. I highly recommend Zalouk (Aubergine with tomato), lamb tajine and the chicken couscous. The waiter was extremely friendly.
