Found a real hidden gem in Stratford: Tanjia, a Moroccan restaurant literally right outside the station. We tried a bit of everything – couscous, fish tagine, chicken livers, a few starters – and everything delivered. The fish tagine was a standout, rich and perfectly cooked, full of flavour. The chicken livers were another hit (definitely don’t skip them). The staff were genuinely lovely, prices very reasonable, and the whole vibe felt authentic without trying too hard. Funny enough, we only discovered it through an Instagram Reel, and now I’m wondering how I’d never been before considering I’ve lived in East for ages. Definitely one I’ll be coming back to – and bringing friends next time.

Absolutely recommendable! It was our first time trying Moroccan cuisine – and we were positively surprised! I had the Couscous Deluxe: a delicious variety of tender meats, from beef to chicken, served with a mix of flavorful vegetables. Truly outstanding! The caramelized onions on top added the perfect finishing touch. But be warned – the portion sizes are definitely not for those with a small appetite! Prices are around £20–25 per person, which is honestly a steal for the quality and quantity you get. Also worth mentioning: the place is very child-friendly. A sweet little girl was sitting at the table next to us, and the owner treated her with such kindness and warmth. She was clearly having a great time – it was lovely to see. A big thank you to the very attentive waiter and the friendly owner (I assume?) – you made the experience even more enjoyable!

Really beautiful restaurant I must say! Simply breathtaking traditional pieces and cuisine. In the back of the restaurant there is shisha area. Restaurant was not busy at the time of my visit, but calm and relaxed atmosphere. Prices are fair as well as portions, cooked very well and delicious. On the table we had ordered beef tanjia and kafta meshwi (my personal favourite), the dishes are well seasoned, brings out true Moroccan goodness! Worth a try to taste true cuisine! Restaurant has private area for large gatherings. The plates, the tables, and the seating area is gorgeous! The restaurant is easy to locate and access. The waitress serving us made sure we are comfortable and had everything we needed, very sweet.
