Summary

Hidden in Hillcrest, Kous Kous Moroccan Bistro is one of San Diego’s premiere Moroccan restaurants. Stop by with a group, some friends, or a date and linger. Moroccan-style cuisine takes a decent while to prepare—Kous Kous hopes you’ll take a little extra time when you stop by.

Order a la carte or one of two of Kous Kous's 5(!)-course prix fixes. Cous cous, of course, is offered with every authentic dish (as are ginger-garlic-herbed mashed potatoes). Authentic entrees include Lamb Shank Tagine or the Marrakesh Lamb Tanjia; there are also fish, chicken, beef, and vegetarian options.

For a complete Moroccan experience, visit Kous Kous today. And stay awhile.

Kous Kous Moroccan Bistro

A perfect place to share with family and friends.  The restaurant displays an intimate and relaxing environment.  Moroccan foods are so exotic with so much flavor and aroma; their dishes have many complex and unusual tastes which make them very tasty and authentic.  You can get good deal during happy hour, and 50% off on all bottles of wines on Mondays and Wednesdays.  It was a very unique dining experience with charming service.  If you have never tired Moroccan food, then give it a try here because you will be impressed.
