Argana Tree - Jenkintown

First off I'd like to address the other reviews saying this restaurant does have slow service. I agree ???? percent but with one caveat, I saw this only during lunch. You see after lunch they close at 3pm to get ready for the busy dinner rush. So unfortunately if you want a fast late lunch break you might not be able to get it here depending on the time of your visit. I myself found my lunch with my guest super relaxing. We had plenty of time to chat and eat an appetizer before our main lunch course was served. I would maybe agree they should warn you before you sit down near the 2pm time frame, that it'll take awhile. I figured the long wait was because of the break before dinner and the owner told me that I was correct. The meal was wonderful. Yes I can see how the prices can be seen as pricey, but aren't all good places? The Babagenoush was excellent, better than my old go-to restaurant for this dish. The owner gave me his secret, which was the expensive virgin olive oil used. Which means that may be why the prices are high. Not saying everything is using the oil but they get fresh/prime ingredients too. I must say I am very happy to have found this restaurant. The major complaint for this place would be the actual business location and the access to a tiny parking lot. Otherwise I think you'll like this restaurant. Give it a try and talk to them, you'll find friendly people. Side note: Most people are put off when you walk into a restaurant and it's empty. Again I saw this as a nice little surprise. Me and my guest had one-on-one time with the owner. Plus enough alone time with ourselves as well.

I ordered take-out for New Year?s Eve. Hummus, Babaganoush, Chicken Pastilla, Chicken Tagine with Apricots Roasted Almonds, and Berber. Everything was absolutely divine! Not a single complaint to be had. Even my kids loved everything and wanted more! I am disappointed I didn?t order more, we didn?t have enough leftovers. (Orders are enough for 1 person, not really for sharing) But then we have reason to come back again! I didn?t see the inside of the restaurant, but my husband did and he said it?s beautiful inside, excellent atmosphere. Highly recommend if you love food with flavor!

I love this spot, you choose to sit inside or outside, the food is excellent, just bring a bottle of wine to match you food????

This place is phenomenal. The food is authentic and delicious. This is such a hidden gem that more people should try. To addresses the ?slowness? sometimes it is and sometimes it isn?t. This is a family run restaurant and I?d much rather wait a little longer here than go elsewhere.
