100+ stars and counting for the amazing experience at Andalousse Seapoint. Fully Halal restaurantMy hubby and I have wanted to visit Andalousse for the longest time. Happy we did it!I was excited to try Moroccan food, he was thinking it would be like Turkish food, Wow a most pleasant and exciting surprise, for both of us, nothing like Turkish food, much better flavour in Morrocan food. We enjoyed the bursts of flavour of Andalousse taking us on a real food journey.The restaurant is cosy, you could imagine that you were in Morocco. Dress up or down, the place is so comfy, with sofa like seating, perfect for crowds or couple dates, they have a little private booth near the till area, also have many cosy seperate sections, a hookah section as well, hidden at the back of the restaurant, out of sight.10% is added to the bill, it is totally worth the service and experience.The waiter politely explained the menu and his recommendations were chosen, without regret.To start we ordered the medium Mint tea, this was brought to the table in an authentic Moroccan style kettle and tray, poured by the waiter, with style, into two mint filled glasses. Mmm, a lovely tea, adding to our experience. Wow. Tea was served with a plate of complimentary cookies, each with their own unique flavours, no ordinary treats. No need to order desserts, they are dessert starters, served with your order of mint tea.Next was the lamb tegines , we ordered the first two on the menu, really lamb shank supremes, oh my word, flavorsome, wholesome, both shanks were cooked to perfection in a stew sauce that was a meal in itself.The sauce was bursting with flavour and came together so beautifully, mine with prunes, nuts, carrots, sesame and lamb shank.1 portion of tegine can serve 2 people, it was served with the lightest, fluffiest, softest, rooti, nothing like any Cape Town rootie, we ordered an extra one. Next time we will order 1 tegine and order another different type of meal with it, as the shank portion was a good size, more than enough to go around. The second Tegine we ordered, was a curryish flavour, not hot, flavourful, no chillies, thank goodness. Both tegines were so perfect.We sat near the waiters desk, opposite a big screen and watched a Moroccan food tour video, wow, I loved that experience. The food served and the restaurant style was truly Morrocan.This place is perfect for a date, family meeting, a party or work function.10 out of 10 for all the elements, coming together, everything you want when going out:Halaal, parking availability, street parking, waiter service, menu, ambience, food flavour, portion size, dessert cookies, overall experience and employee welcome and friendliness. All deserving of the best rating.

Great experience,Great value for money ! Friendly staff ,well done guys 👍

People were friendly, the guy gave us time to settle in before bringing the Manu to us, took our order, gave advise, but the food was tasty and presentation was good . I felt like someone who was in Morocco at the time. I will definitely pop in again to try another dish. To me it was a different atmosphere and so relaxing. I already told my friends about this restaurant.

We love Andalousse, small little restaurant in Sea Point main road. This is our go to place. They make Moroccan food. Their food is delicious and you get so much food and its not expensive. Give them a try, its a little hidden gem.

One of the best halal restaurants in Cape Town! Yes I said it.Our dining experience at Andalousse was nothing short of fantastic. From the kind and caring service, to the best value for money for delicious food, this is the place to be. Only have one warning: portion sizes are MASSIVE!Youve been warned 😋We had our Fathers day lunch and left with a more than satisfied father. The food was absolutely delicious and made us want to visit Morocco herself 😁 The decor gives you a taste of Morocco and they even have prayer facilities available!Thank you Andalousse for such a wonderful experience and your kind hospitality. We cannot wait to come back!

Enjoyed Moroccan food for the first time today, would definitely visit Andalousse again.

What amazing service! Ambience is just amazing. Ive never had such delicious tea. Try it and thank me later!

A lovely restaurant that make one feel like you’re really dining in Morocco. The soup and peppermint tea is my absolute favourite... it’s nothing short of delicious. The tea is served with lovely cookies which are not too sweet and compliments the peppermint really well. The seating area is colourful and the back of the restaurant which is the smoking area is really relaxing too. The staff is friendly and service was good.

Great Authentic Morrocan cuisine. This branch in Sea Point is much more spacious than the Woodstock branch and is perfect for groups and lounging with a Sheesha pipe.

Great food, enjoyed the Tajine lamb shank. Tasty. The reason I gave a four star is that the decor could do with some upgrades.

The food definitely gets 5 stars! If you want to try something different from the norm and looking for authentic Moroccan food, this is the place to visit. It is strictly halaal, so a big plus for me. You might just miss it as it is quite hidden and is very quaint in decor, but I promise you, you will not be disappointed!

Having lived in Morocco for four months I can attest to the authenticity of the food in this superb little restaurant. We had a number of dishes and all are highly recommended. It was so good I bought take aways after the meal to take home

New branch a hit. Fully halaal and everything is delicious. The Sea Point branch is larger with cosy nooks for seating but portion sizes are smaller. The dishes no longer feed two people.

Absolutely fantastic food and great service. Do try the Moroccan tea on the menu, its phenomenal. Will definitely be back for more.

Absolutely divine... Rayyaan and I always enjoy eating this mixed grill dish. The food is always well presented and delicious. Q

Delicious food!! regal service and warm hospitality!a must to experience especially if you look for halaal based style holidays!

If you like Morrocan food then you will enjoy Andalousse home cooked moroccan meals. From his morrocan kitchen to your plate,

Terrible experience. Found a cockroach in my food. They dont even deserve the 1 star.

Morrocan cusine , tasty and hallal . Try the lamb coscosi its delicious .They also have Shisha lounge where you can try thier mint morrocan tea and sweets . Thier prices are good for the quality .

Always a spectacular time filled with Authentic Morrocan food. Mossa always friendly and helpful. Love it

Authentic Moroccan food and tea. Extremely tasty and different, they still finding their feet as a business but are doing well and will only improve, would definitely recommened for a family night out

Delicious food (lamb that simply melts in your mouth!), generous portions and friendly staff

Great food, super friendly staff5/5

Delicious authentic food.So so affordable for the size meal you receive.It’s great place to chill with friends.The service however is abit slow but they are very nice and I would go back.

Great flavour and affordable pricing. Not to mention they are quite generous with their biscuits.

As always great food, just the service was a bit slow we waited a hour for our food and we were about 15 guest.

Soooo nice. Thank you for hosting my friends and I for iftaar. Service was good and the food even better. Real value for money

Food is great, service great, HOWEVER, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR TOILETS. No lights in the toilet, not clean and a very strong stench.

Awesome food nice environmentMust try

Enjoyed my meal. Felt very moroccan to me... But what do I know.... 🙂

Delicious food, generous portions, great price & friendly staff.

Great food, bought a few tagine goodies too. Portions massive, great value for money and good service.

Last night we were seated at the back of the restaurant and waited eons to be served. We stormed out when we saw a rat being right at home in this establishment. Will not go there again, sorry.

Andalousse serves amazing authentic Moroccan food. The portions are large and great for sharing. I personally would recommend the vegetarian cous cous, the cheesy bread and the plate of Mezze. I personally do not eat meat but the rest of my table devoured the lamb tagine, and were delighted how the meat fell off the bone. Unfornately the server who was attending to my friends and my table was really unfriendly and made us feel rather unwelcome whenever we asked him anything. The manager of the place was much nicer though and that is why I am keeping my 4 star review. There are also no hookah pipes available as of yet, but I do hope that will be available soon. But still a great place to visit nonethelessOne thing to keep in mind when visiting Andalousse is that they in Sea Point just off one of the main roads so parking can be a bit of hassle to find and you might need to park on one of the side streets if you are driving there.

Good food though recipes may have changed over the years..the soups didnt have that homemade taste as it once did.

I really want to give 0 stars because i am Morrocon and i am very disappointed at the time of breaking my fast. The food was very disappointing not Morrocain standards at all.The soup was over powered with tomato paste and the the chicken tagine with olives and lemon was terrible with pieces of carrots and chips definitely not authentic Morrocan and not to mention the bread that was totally sour with a strong smell of yeast overpowering the actual taste of the flat bread. The owner was very very unfriendly and unwelcoming, for us it was a first and last. Really nothing to do with Morrocan cuisine. Atika

So lets get straight to the point to why weve given this a 1 star - First of all, it took 30 minutes to just get our tea, they forgot about our Avo smoothie which took even longer so we decided to cancel it as they were wasting our time.Secondly, our food took AT LEAST 1 hour and when we inquired about when our food will arrive - they lied to us and told us 5 minutes... it took another 15 minutes (So 1 Hr 15 minutes) where we were just about to just cancel our order and walk out until our food just magically appeared out of nowhere.Our moods was just put off that we didnt enjoy the food/experience, there was no manager on the floor, there was only 2 waiters waitering and probably only 1 chef to cook for 20+ people that were at the restaurant at the time.Its sad that the owner of the place doesnt seem to care much about his/her lack of service and quality of service, we werent even compensated for the time they wasted making us wait, its a real shame actually and I would not recommend going here on a busy day as they already have problems with service on a quiet day.Trust me, there are better places to eat here in Cape Town with 10x better service.

Great food. Reasonably priced. Will definitely go there again.

A rating of 1 Star is being generous.Service: Poor - we entered the restaurant and there was no host to greet or usher us to a table upon arrival.Decor: it’s uncomfortable.Food: Terrible - we ordered the lamb tjine, the lamb shank is supposedly slow cooked. We received our order within 10 mins. - we were prepared to wait. The food was cold, we sent it back and it got re-heated in the oven. The food was oily, the carrots were sweet and had a strange gelatinous texture. The potato and bread was decent. Because the food was unappetizing, we didn’t finish our meal. Later the evening my friend and I, became unwell, And therefore I would strongly not recommend this restaurant.Price: it’s expensive for low quality food and very poor service.This restaurant is halal.

Food always amazing ...Love the authenticity. Child friendly

Great food, I loved it.

Cozy certified Halaal restaurant with lots of seating, homemade biscuits, sweet Moroccan mint tea and a large array of delicious meals: from kebabs with hummus, fresh salads, baby ganoush to lamb, vegetarian tagine, and cous cous.

My husband and I ate here in December 2019. Bad service. Many flies. Place needs a deep clean and face lift. Food was atrocious. We both got food poisoning from this restaurant - hubbys was very bad. I would recommend that you eat some place else.

I absolutely love andalouse morocans food. The portion are big and it so so delicious. Give them a try and you will love it. Everything on the menu taste wonderful.

Good food and cosy atmosphere

Very nice quiet place. Staff very friendly.

Variety of authentic Arabic dishes at a reasonable price. Adequate portion sizes

Very good Dinner 🍝 🥗

Excellent service and great atmosphere. Bring the family to have a relaxing and enjoyable evening. The food is great and dont forget to try the mint tea!

Must try for vegetarian are Harira soap, and vegetarian tagine. However, you need to have PATIENCE cos the service is not good honestly.

Fantastic food, portions very large.Nice atmosphere.

Excellent food, friendly service. A fantastic mix between world class for and homely atmosphere. I love going there.

If you want the Moroccan experience head over here. Great food. ( from a Moroccan)

It was an experience from another world. I would recommend that restaurant to anybody wanting to experience Moroccan cuisine. From the Mint Tea to the Tagine everything was beautiful. Thank you Andalousse for an amazing evening

The food is delicious and portions really huge. Always order everything to share. Great service also.

Had a great time with the kids. Had our own nook, benefit of note with my noisy bunch. Waiter needs to light a fire under his but though. Food was tasty, tender and delectable as usual. Kids were left a bit hungry though. but good decor and vibe....a must see in Cape Town.

Food was delicious as always. Such a good evening with friends

The first hookah pipe was so strong and burnt our throats and there were rats running up and down while we ate. The food was nice but its unhygienic to have rats run around

A must place to visit for authentic Moroccan food! Love the vibe and atmosphere... Dont forget to purchase some biscuits on your way out.

Lovely moments, always make good memories,,

Such an amazing experience. The food was really great and the whole experience itself was amazing, real and authentic. Highly recommend it

The service, food and the ambiance all well-deserving of 5 star rating. Portions are enormous and flavours authentic.

The food is alright, but the service is good with a great experience of an Moroccan environment

Food is lovely, service is very good, alhamdullillaah

Delicious food. Big helpings! Great atmosphere. Divine biscuits.

Unexpectedly amazing flavors. My husband was particularly impressed with the vegetarian pizza and we both cant stop talking about the Moroccan tea. We want the rest of our extended family to experience this place as well.

Highly recommend, portions are huge,Go hungry so you can try their food, beverages and dessert👀A takeaway will be on the cards,

Andalousse never disappoints.Great food.Excellent service.Try their avocado smoothie !

Really good food, thoroughly enjoyed

Delicious meals for a great price. Truly a unique experience. Would do ten times over.

Hospitality and food is great

They have the best biscuits and mint tea. I visit Andelousse often and often invite friends for dinner here

Food was great. Cleanliness is an issue. Especially in our current environment!

I booked a 5able 2 weeks before for 10 peopleWe arrived they gave us the worse table and it took q5mn before we had a waiter to ask for drinks..food is great but very long to arriveWe eventually ate at 10pm 90mn after we arrived they got my atder wrong with lamb instead of chicken.. I cant eat lamb ..they say its fine they make a new one but all they did is to take the lamb out and put kitchen instead it still tasted like lambUnfortunately I did not anything but the others did

Its feel like Im at home

Excellent Food great service

Must visit this place

Decent. Service could be better.

Best couscous and lamb tagine 😋😋

5 stars always. Best Tagine in SA.

Food is amazing service is wonderful overall a great experience

What a lovely experience

Very tasty Moroccan food.

Every time a treat. Harira soup with cheese stuffed bread for starters. Some tajine in the main followed by tea 👌👌

This review is way overdue.When Andalousse opened in Woodstock, I fell in love with the authentic food and equally the hospitality.And when I heard that they opened a bigger branch in Sea Point I was delighted as clearly the public was appreciating this gem as much as me.My dad turned 60 in August and seeing as though he visited Morocco and loved it for the exact reasons I grew fond on Andalousse (food &hospitality), it was only fitting that we celebrated here.The owner was travelling at the time, but helped me put together a party for 50 via email within a week!His more than capable manager and staff executed our party with such ease and grace.And as expected, the food was freshly made, delicious and bountiful!Our family and friends were thoroughly impressed and more importantly so was my father:)Will recommend Andalousse over and over.....

Good food good vibes. Its a must visit

Amazing food but service was a little slow

The food was incredible. Host made us feel very welcome. Great experience

Fabulous! Huge portions, great value for money👍♥️

Authentic Moroccan Food at its best...

The food was delicious. The portions are massive so I would recommend sharing a dish between two-three people. The service was good. I would recommend this place

Food is good. Service average. Toilets are dirty.

Such an amazing experience!! The cookies, soup and morrocan mint tea is life changing!!! I highly recommend coming here!!

The food and the service is absolutely amazing. The host made us feel oh so welcome and even gave us a little extra lamb tagine gravy to go with our leftover vegetable couscous.You can eat the lamb in the lamb tagine with a spoon. It was so soft and tasty, especially with chilli and fresh lemon.I will definitely be going back soon. I will be going back hungry and youre going to have to roll me out of there.

Great food excellent service fantastic experience

Food was really great. Very tasty & the portions were good. However, the service couldnt cope with the volume of people in the restaurant so thats an area I feel like they could improve

Delicious! I cant stop thinking about it! Also good service. Restaurant just needs a bit of sprucing up perhaps

Friendly speedy service and food was amazing! Love their Tfaya Lamb Cous Cous and their mint tea with biscuits!

Great experience.

Ive heard so much about this place but I was so disappointed. We were a big group and our kids went along.We couldnt order pizza, because they didnt have cheese. They said they wouldnt be making pizza. Then our drinks took over an hour to arrive, and some didnt even get their drinks.The bathrooms... I have no words. It looked like you would pick up a disease in it. It was disgusting.
