Cafe Amanouz, offering primarily Moroccan dishes, is a long-time winner in the Best Mediterranean category. You'll find plenty of tagines (dishes served and sometimes cooked in distinctive lidded pots), vegetarian and vegan dishes, fish, couscous and a large and interesting breakfast menu. Spices like saffron, chilis, cumin, fennel, cloves and mint combine in fragrant offerings, and the small space is often packed. Visit on Thursday nights and you can even join in for French night while you munch your couscous.
