"Tara Kitchen is the best Moroccan restaurant to hit NYC in a long time. The recipes have benefited from being fine-tuned at Waheed’s previous restaurants, and have a lived-in quality that made them seem like Mom’s home cooking, Moroccan-style. It offers some unusual dishes in comparison to New York’s handful of Moroccan restaurants...Your introduction to the dish here should be the most famous: chicken m’chermel ($29), a half chicken and potatoes flavored with green olives and preserved lemons...Also don’t miss the lamb tagines...Warm salads are another delight...Another recommendation is the Essaouira plate...The wine list includes Moroccan wines so now you can enjoy your tagines even more." - Robert Sietsema
