Arabesque - New York City

Great name, great food and great ambiance. Friendly manager or owner, all of us loved the experience.

If you want to have a Great Hookah with great entertainment and belly dancer, with good food and an EXCEPTIONAL service and ambiance and positive vibes, then look no further!!!! This is by far the BEST restaurant I have been in New York . They have anauthentic Moroccan cuisine with THE BEST HOOKAH EVER!!!!! (Usually I would get headache with hookah but this did not give me oneand I am thrilled) Make sure to get the hookah with the pineapple head. The waiters/receptionist were AMAZING and attentive. Wehad great time and Will definitely come back again!!!

The food here is very good although I?m told that it?s not particularly authentic. Service is friendly, but unrefined. They offer hookah and the back room is reserved for belly dancing shows after 9 pm. The restaurant does a nice job giving it?s guestsa Moroccan style dining experience, so if that?s what you?re looking for, it?s worth a try.

My friends and I go to a new restaurant every Friday. Arabesque was chosen because we were feeling dinner and a show. (The show did NOT disappoint! I gave four stars because the mixed cocktails just weren?t up to par and I am ALWAYS here for a well madedrink. We got the large Arabasque sampler and large mixed grill. Portions were absolutely perfect and TOO much if you don?t eatlike the cows that we are. My recommendation: Order wine and hookah and enjoy that while your food comes out. Eat until yourhearts content and then MAKE SURE you get out on the floor and dance with the talent asks.

Beyond excellent food with exquisite flavor. Served piping hot (don?t burn your mouth! and surrounded by Moroccan themed decor. The staff was very nice and there was also a belly dancer that made an appearance. I definitely recommend any of the tajine?s.Hope this helps!
