“ If you're looking for an authentic Moroccan restaurant with local and organic ingredients, look no further! I recently had the pleasure of dining there and I wasn't disappointed. Their dishes are absolutely delicious—every bite is an explosion of exotic flavors. The quality of the ingredients is evident, and their use of local and organic produce is both admirable and responsible. The manager is incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to explain the dishes and recommend options. She's passionate about Moroccan food, and it shines through in every aspect of her restaurant. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a unique and authentic culinary experience. You won't be disappointed! ”

“ I had lunch today at Tanja restaurant in Aix and it was perfect! The service was impeccable, very attentive and welcoming. The meal was delicious: I had a flavorful tagine, followed by an excellent rose des sables (a type of cornmeal dessert). A truly wonderful place that I highly recommend! ”

“ An excellent lunchtime canteen in Aix! Everything is fresh, tasty, and colorful! A charming restaurant where you feel good, like at home. We tried the chicken keftas and briouates as a starter and three pastries to take away (because we were full!); they were fragrant, delicate, and very well cooked. Special mention for the organic and locally sourced products, with the list of producers written on the menu. It changes every two weeks. A must-visit for a guaranteed change of scenery at lunchtime! Bravo Marie! ”

“ There are restaurateurs who prepare meals for you, others who prepare dishes that will delight your taste buds, and finally, those rarer, Rabelaisian ones who nourish your mind as much as your body, without forgetting to delight those taste buds in the process. Because yes, Tanja is a philosophy, a virtuous and successful "package." That's my perception. The choice of responsible cuisine, rooted in simple values, is oh so difficult to implement. 1/ I preserve my environment by transforming products that will automatically be of high quality. 2/ I, the chef, am alone, and responsible for everything... it's a dream! 3/ This chef keeps her promises of travel, born from her life's journey, and knows how to share them with you, at the slightest request. With genuine empathy for your desires and a smile, always. So upon arrival, I ate fragrantly, I ate colorfully, I ate with relish. I ordered and reordered to taste and taste again, but mostly because Pantagruel could be my cousin (1m78 and 120 kilos, you have to satisfy them!). Ah, briouates, with the freshness of colorful crudités! Happiness is in applied and mischievous simplicity. Here, there's nothing to hide; I had lunch overlooking the countertop (which looks just like yours, dear reader, you'll see!) Everything is spotless. You can feel the thoughtful gestures, which are reflected in the precision of the cooking. I could go on, but you'll think I was paid or that I'm family! So, a great place, tasty food, very good value for money with an ethical bonus, all too rare in our society. Long live Tanja...! ”

“ Wow! A real hidden gem in the heart of Aix. This small Moroccan restaurant, located in a discreet alleyway, is a wonderful discovery. The welcome is wonderful: the manager is smiling, warm, and attentive. The place is spotlessly clean, everything is well-arranged and orderly. The products are fresh, organic, and high-quality, and it's evident in every bite. The plates are generous and tasty, with true Moroccan flavors that go far beyond couscous and tagine. This is the first time I've been to a restaurant where I know exactly what I'm eating: everything is homemade, healthy, and delicious. The taste is incredible, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality offered. A big thumbs up, I highly recommend it! I can't wait to go back ”

“ Authentic Moroccan cuisine with delicious, healthy, and local ingredients! The menu changes weekly, allowing you to discover new flavors, all at very affordable prices. The place, located in the heart of the city center, is beautifully decorated! I highly recommend it; we'll be back! ”

“ This little Moroccan restaurant tucked away in an alley is a wonderful discovery! Every bite is a true delight for the taste buds, the balance of flavors and spices absolutely perfect. Everything is incredibly fresh and seasonal… we truly enjoyed our meal. On this hot day, the indoor space with its fans was much appreciated. To top it all off, the owner is absolutely lovely and very welcoming. It was our first time there today, but certainly not our last; we can't wait to go back! ”
