- World Food Tour: Marrakesh (Moroccan)Marrakesh, Philadelphia, PA
The next stop on the World Food Tour is Marrakesh to savor the Moroccan flavors complete with belly dancers. The menu at Marrakesh is a celebration of Moroccan cuisine at its finest. Marrakesh Philadelphia’s story is one of unwavering commitment to providing an authentic Moroccan experience in the heart of Philadelphia. Its longevity, dedication to tradition, and reputation for excellence make it a must-visit destination for those seeking the flavors, colors, and enchantment of Morocco within the city.
Marrakesh has a seven course prix fixe menu. The advice from many reviewers was to come hungry. You will leave full. The price per person including tax and 20% tip should be $40. Please bring cash $$$. Let me know of any allergies so that I can pass it along to the restaurant.
Marrakesh is BYOB so you are encouraged to bring a bottle of wine to share. I did see some reviews mention a bar as well, but we will not add drinks to the bill. If you want to order cocktails, you can have the alcohol on a separate check or go to the bar.
I will confirm that you will be attending a day or two before the event. If you can't attend, kindly change your RSVP to not going so that someone on the wait list can go or I can correct the reservation at least 24 hours prior.
There is street parking and some nearby parking lots. The lots are located at:
- 422 S. 3rd Street (2 min walk)
- 500 Cypress Street (4 min walk)
