Arena Cafe

And out of nowhere… a restaurant that isn’t portuguese is found in Newark! Morocco lands in Brick City.
OnWithTheReview!
Decoration:
The outside stinks like a herring in the sun. The inside is mildly coold with some collection of morrocan tangines. You’re not going to impress any sheik with this place — but it aint too bad.
Food:
The place is pretty cheap and it portions are decent. These serve a small assortment of kebas and tangine meals. Again — not sheik worthy — but if you are sick of Paelha — this is a decent tasty fine. I think the most expensive plate is $ 9 if I remember correctly. You will not leave hungry and the food is tasty!
Staff:
A friendly bunch of arabic guys. Simple and very polite. No girls tho… shame.
Ambience and Crowd:
Im gonna be honest — I never came here with more than 2 other tables being used by Customers. I am pretty sure this place suffers from a significant lack of marketing! So bleh points here — not uncomfortable but surely not a party.
Drinks:
No Alcohol — but plenty of tea!
Overall:
Look — let’s be serious. Its a decent place that is great for usage as a change of lunch options. Its friendly, its situated ok and is not expensive in the least. Morocco is a pretty good cuisine place.
Pros:
Cheaper than air!
Tasty food
Friendly workers
Cons:
Parking is an STD sometimes.
Not a lot of food options
No Liquor… NO LIQUOR!!! I know I know… they don’t drink liquor… but still. NO LIQUOR?!
H-​Cane Final Spin:
I am happy it is here because If I have one more friggin X-​tudo I will kick someone. It’s a nice added appetizer of hopefully what will ignite interest in even more different types of restaurants in this city. Go for a quick different lunch bite — leave the sheik at home.
