Al Fassia Restaurant in Windsor and Maidenhead

We came to eat at this restaurant during the week, so it was quiet but our service was exceptional. We tried a variety of food, which was recommended to us and it didn’t disappoint.

Great service and lovely interesting dishes.

The food is very nice, wonderful Moroccan food, the service is very excellent, the treatment is elegant, and the seating is beautiful

“Exceptional Lunch Experience at Al Fassia Windsor!” I had the pleasure of dining at Al Fassia Windsor for lunch today, and I am thoroughly impressed. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, setting the tone for what would be an incredible experience. The service was truly outstanding—the staff member went above and beyond to make us feel valued and cared for. He was attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and always ready to make our meal special. And the food…wow! Every dish was a perfect balance of authentic flavors and beautiful presentation. You can tell there’s a lot of passion in the kitchen, as each plate was bursting with vibrant flavors and fresh ingredients. It was an absolute treat, and I loved every bite. Al Fassia Windsor has left such a positive impression that I can’t wait to come back more often. Thank you for such a memorable lunch experience. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a special lunch spot in Windsor! Thank You , Albania ‘s couple Bani & Soni

Absolutely amazing! We went there for dinner and ordered D’Elaadas and D’Eloubia tagines. So delicious! The Bastilla a la glace was delightful as well. The staff was very friendly, and the athletic is very welcoming. Would certainly recommend this place!

Very good experience. Loved the food nice ambience service xan be better as they kept us waiting and we never got our water

Very great place, Lamb Tagine was fantastic and the overall atmosphere was warm and comforting. Would come back.

We had a late lunch here, and were very impressed by the food and service. Thoroughly recommend Al Fassia for authentic Moroccan food at a reasonable price.

First time eating Moroccan food and just wow!!! We were so glad we randomly found this place while visiting the city thanks to the reviews. Hence it’s my duty to confirm that it’s all true. Food and service were absolutely perfect. We were recommended to take the set menu with hot and cold appetisers plus main dishes which were above expectations. Food is just flavourful and melts in your mouth! Definitely coming back!

The food! Wow! A must try in Winsdor!

After a week in Marrakesh, it was a delight to find this restaurant. Warm welcome, moroccan hospitality, just a fantastic place for a family reunion.

Been going to Al Fassia for many years, this continues to be an outstanding Moroccan restaurant with superb food and hospitality

When I visited, there was only one person hosting, and he was incredibly friendly and a pleasure to interact with. He made my dining experience enjoyable, guiding me through the menu and helping me choose the best options for my first Moroccan meal. The restaurant itself is small and a bit shabby in places, but the interior decor gives off a truly authentic Moroccan vibe, which is equally reflected in the menu. Most of the dishes I had were on the sweeter side, and the tagine stew was a bit bland for my taste. However, the lamb was perfectly cooked—falling off the bone, and despite some fatty parts, it melted in the mouth without being chewy at all. The only downside, which might also be seen as a positive, was that the host’s high energy made me feel slightly rushed. I wasn’t there for even an hour, which raised some concerns about whether the food was freshly prepared or reheated. Despite the brief visit, it was a delightful experience overall. I'd still recommend it, especially for those looking to try Moroccan cuisine for the first time. It was a great introduction to the flavours and culture.

Nice quaint place tucked away in the lanes of Windsor High Street. Food was divine and the host was delightful.

Staff very welcoming and attentive. Food was lovely though cold starters were a little too cold for my taste. Pricing is fair, maybe ever so slightly on the high side in relation to the food. Varied menu so got something for everyone and once again, staff will do their utmost to look after you. Would come again.

My first encounter with Moroccan cuisine and I couldn't have chosen a better place! Outstanding

Always seems quiet in here and have often been the only ones dining but don't let that put you off the fantastic food and great service! Always come away full and happy! Great place 👌

What a gem! The service food and choices are excellent! Really friendly service. We had the mixed messes between four of us which were excellent. Then shared taglines and cous cous all perfect!

What a great find traditional Moroccan dishes simply delicious and great service will definitely be returning

Good food, a warm atmosphere and friendly efficient staff

The meat felt rotten and wasn't eatable. There were flies in the restaurant. If you eat there, you will never want to eat any Moroccan food. The price is not worth the food. On top of that they charged extra around £5 as tax. If you want to eat halal, better try any other restaurants.

Very disappointing food. Kebabs were poor quality and chewy. Normally love moroccan food. not this time. very over priced.

My experience wasn't great. The food portions were very small and expensive. Starters were very small for the price and the mains were not very fresh. The bread felt stale and dry. The music in the background was loud and very annoying. I would probably never go there again... The waiter was friendly though!

Drove all the way from London. Our waiter was incredibly rude and swore at us in Portuguese, ruined the evening for me and my friends.

My daughter felt that the food was authentic compared to other Moroccan restaurants she has been to.

Warm welcome, absolutely delicious food as always. Looking forward to next visit.

As always, the food is excellent, as are the staff. Keep up the great work. We will be back. Thankyou very much for a fantastic meal.

We ate deliciously well in this Moroccan restaurant. The tagines are incredibly good, as are the zaalouk and orange salad for dessert. Everything was tasty and well scented.

We had a delicious lunch with friends on Sunday. We recommend the mixed starter which gives you a taste of everything. Super tagine and couscous dishes. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Just at the end of Peascod st, so handy if you are visiting Windsor town centre.

Very good food and lovely staff but they do not include taxes in the menu and there is no way to know it until you see the bill.

Really lovely restaurant with a great atmosphere. Service was excellent. Good veggie, fish and meat options. Definitely worth a visit.

The decor was tasteful and atmosphere cozy. The tangines we ordered tasted very authentic. The desert was a true delight. Staff was awesome!!!!

Amazing! The decor is authentic, the food is delicious and the people are very friendly. Had the best chicken tagine, couscous and kofta. They even have a well-thought kids menu (not the usual nuggets and chips you find everywhere). The orange juice was really freshly juiced, and the desserts and mint tea were amazing. I'd love to go again when in Windsor.

Lovely arabic restaurant, cosy middle eastern atmosphere. Food top notch..

First time trying Moroccan & loved it

Food is well seasoned and prepared with fresh ingredients. A small hidden gem in Windsor.

My favourite moroccan restaurant in the area

Lovely restaurant, great service and the food was delicious! Highly recommend

My wife loves this place. Fresh food, friendly staff. Manager is welcoming and lovely

The food here was so lovely, the service was warm, personable and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our Sunday evening meal at Al Fassia and I especially enjoyed the tagine and Moroccan coffee! The restaurant is in a great location with parking and public transport nearby, there's a lovely space downstairs and upstairs, it's well spaced out but still feels intimate and charming. There are toilets upstairs, they're spacious and clean! But the star of the show as previously mentioned is the food, so fresh! I wish I had taken a picture of the tagine before I started eating it, but take a look at photos left by other reviewers. It's delivered to your table in the tagine, still sizzling hot. The food was all cooked within earshot and care was taken to ensure it was all piping hot. The service was extremely friendly and it was abundantly clear that there was a real passion for the food being served to us. I will absolutely be looking for any excuse to come back. The only thing I'd note which isn't their fault... we arrived at around 6pm on a Sunday and beyond one other table, nobody else was there during our meal. This is a crying shame because the food, service and prices are absolutely deserving of a full house every day of the week. If you're debating going here, please do come and try it. Merci mille fois !

We booked a table for four but there was only one other table occupied…. The bastilla (pastilla) was very good for a starter . We shared 2 between the four of us…. We could all have eaten more…. The Al Fassia couscous was good but a bit light on meat for the price, however, the lamb tagine was really tasty…. We had to ask for harrissa…. Which was necessary… and it arrived with a bowl of broth which was very welcome…. The mergas (merguez) were good…. We love Moroccan food as we have spent a lot of time there and have eaten couscous since living in Paris in 1974! Hence we are a little bit critical…. We shared the selection of desserts which were mainly biscuits and I thought a bit stale… which was a shame…. The owner was very friendly and welcoming and we will probably visit again…. Recommended if you like Moroccan food .

Great family run restaurant. Food and service brilliant. Small but a real jewel. Booking recommended

Haven't been for two years, but we won't leave it that long again. Excellent food, attentive and friendly service, plus great music and wonderful photographs. We'll be back!

Always delicious food amd great service

Another fantastic meal.Brilliant little restaurant.

Best place for authentic Moroccan food 👌🏼 service is great, food is amazing and the atmosphere is lovely. And you don’t want to miss out on the desserts 😋Totally recommend :)!!

Food was good, kids love them. But service was poor. Atmosphere was "meh". A friend treated us to Morrocon food. If the service can be super improved, then its recommended, otherwise try not to come.

very rude staff indeed food good but service and waiter had very bad attitude when questioning about service charge

Thoroughly enjoyable evening. Food was very good and service to match. Great choice of dishes available including veggie. We opted for the special taster set menu, it was delicious and filling too. Would recommend.

We spent the day at legoland and this was only a 10 minute drive away. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food we had was delicious. I highly recommend trying the food at Al Fassia, you won’t be disappointed!

The food quantity was very less as compared to the price, taste was average, and serving took longer

Vanavond hier gegeten met 4 personen. We werden allervriendelijkst onthaald en bediend. Het eten was uitstekend! Een aanrader als je goed Marrokaans wilt eten.

Food was absolutely delicious, we ordered a vegetarian mezze for two. Very friendly and attentive waiter. Highly recommended.

Lovely lunch, fresh food and great service!

Lovely Moroccan cuisine, great atmosphere with traditional music, and the service was brilliant. I thoroughly recommend Al Fassia for dinner if you’re in Windsor. The Al Fassia Salad starter offered a great variety of tasty dishes, along with bread and hummus. Tagine D’Elkhodra for main was tasty and filling. Only slight criticism is that there was little too much olive oil for my liking, but that’s likely as it doesn’t sit well in my stomach.

Fantastic meal, highly recommend the sharing platter of starters and mains

Absolutely great place for dinner. Food is just delicious. 100% recommended

Family celebration - amazing, the most delicious, freshly cooked food I've had at a restaurant for a very long time. Even a fussy pre teen ate everything. If you are looking for somewhere, then do not hesitate to book. Service is excellent, very friendly. It is the place you will want to return to time and time again. 😊✨✨✨✨✨

I’m very disappointed. We ordered Moroccan food but not good as we expected. It was totally waste of money and time. I won’t come back to this place again and I don’t recommend it at all.!

Enjoyable food in a nice atmosphere with attentive service. The place was quite busy on a midweek night so is appealing.

Quality and clearly very authentic Moroccan food, good service and well priced.

Abdu was very nice and food was good too…

Aa taste of real Moroccan dishes.

We needed somewhere to meet mid-way(ish) between Oxford and Coulsdon. Windsor seemed a good choice. Next, what to eat? I’m a dyed in the wool carnivore, my dining partner a vegan. We both enjoy food of the world and saw that Al Fassia had some good reviews so we thought we’d give it try. They did not disappoint! The food and the service was simply excellent. We both chose tagines; mine was lamb shank with prunes and apricots (TAGINE LAMB BELBARHOUK). The generous portion of succulent meat fell off the bone. My partner enjoyed the TAGINE D'ELAADAS, Lentil stew slow cooked with vegetables, garlic, mixed herbs and olive oil. Which took her no time at all. With a starter of EPINARD A L'AILE (Spinach cooked with olive oil, garlic, herbs, spices and preserved lemon, served with pitta bread) a couple beers and a glass of Pinot we couldn’t be happier. Service was also excellent; discreet but attentive, friendly without overfamiliarity. The restaurant itself gives a very warm traditional Moroccan feel with appropriate music to add a little food for the ears. I don’t do many reviews but this little gem absolutely requires it. Whilst the cost of the evening was a little more than I expected I begrudge not a penny and I felt I also got value for money. If you’re going to Windsor do not miss this fantastic restaurant.

Wonderful place, people, and food.

Lovely welcoming family restaurant with authentic food. Great service and tasty food. We’ll be back.

Great Moroccan restaurant. Great food, great service. Good atmosphere.

Abit quiet and tired, service is ok but food slow and reasonably expensive.

I ate a very nice chicken tagine. The staff were polite and friendly.

Great starter of sardines. Then grilled lamb...lovely. dessert based on Moroccan filo pasty, homemade, was to die for. All homemade so any allergy issues covered in detail

Wow, what amazing restaurant, being from North Africa, it was so refreshing to experience a taste of home. This restaurant not only has the most delicious food, from the cous cous to the merges or the lamb and chicken dishes. The staff are super friendly and nothing is too much trouble. There is something for everyone, and this little gem lets you experience traditional Moroccan food in a beautiful setting ! Thank you for making us so welcome 🤗

The best Moroccan food ever 👍👍and the staff very friendly.

Al Fassia ranks in my top 3 places to eat in Windsor. We have eaten there many times and never had a poor meal. Post Covid we returned last weekend and enjoyed it hugely. My wife and I both had the Sardine a La Sharmoula to start. Beautifully flavoured and a real treat. Other personal favourite options from the starter menu are Mergas Sausages or Harira Soup. For mains course, I went for Tagine Lamb Tfaia. For years I went for the Kebab Maghdour (cubes of lamb, tomato and parsley topped with a fresh egg) on the grounds that I would not enjoy sweet raisins etc. with meat. Then I tried it and it was a revelation so I again enjoyed stewed lamb in a tagine with sweet caramelised onions and raisins plus couscous. My wife had the Alfassia salad as a main course which is a variety of little dishes of cold starters in a meze or tapas style. This enabled her to comfortably finish off with a dessert of Moroccan homemade pastries and a Moroccan coffee. Wines by the glass are restricted to a limited range of house wines at £6:50 of good quality. We went for the excellent rose. I would recommend a bottle of the Moroccan red “Domaine de Sahari” if you go for wine by the bottle at an affordable £23.95. Service is not included in the initial bill and ours came to just above £80 including 4 glasses of wine. A very enjoyable afternoon.

Great meal at Al Fassia last Friday night. Always enjoy Moroccan food and great to find such a good restaurant in Windsor. Very relaxed, excellent food and waiter who managed an individual rapport with all the tables. Surprisingly good vegetarian and vegan options. No hesitation to recommend or to go again.

Nice place good atmosphere food portion to small last time I was there the size of food was amazing this time the meat was small not enough veg but Brilliant taste

Really nice Mediterranean restaurant! The hummus is amazing and the taglines are perfect! Would definitely come back

Cold to start of with wherexwe were sitting upstairs. Starters were small portions for the price as well as the main course the tagine and saffron rice were tasty. Would I go again NO.

Fabulous food, one of the best meals I've had

Nice and cozy Moroccan restaurant. Excellent tagine. Chicken Magdour my favourite. They have big morocan themed space if you want to organise big events .

Amazing food and service and really cute decor. Tagines were lovely. All the restaurant staff are so welcoming, friendly and warm. Def a hidden gem in windsor!

Nice and clean restaurant. Good service and food was nice.

Amazing food, place, and service. Highly recommended 👌

Food was delicious, as expected, though not piping hot and in slightly battered containers. It just didn’t travel well and didn’t reflect the quality experience we’ve had dining at Al Fassia, so felt poor value for the price which was the same as eating-in with delivery and service on top.

If there was a 10 star rating Al Fassia deserve it!! Exceptional food 10/10. Service from Houssain was extremely welcoming and inviting. As for the chef Mina, she bought a bit of Morocco to Windsor! Best Moroccan cuisine ive ever tasted.

First time having Moroccan food. Very flavourful. Exceeded our expectations. Good for vegetarian options. Service was great.

I have never had a bad meal in 20 years. Great food and always outstanding service. Trust me you'll not be disappointed.

Couscous portions are the smallest I have ever seen and eaten but the plate is huge and even a kid would get hungry for 20 pounds a plate??? Quality is below average. It is a pity as it used to be a good restaurant, i guess the chef has gone. I would not recommend

Totally excellent and exceedingly tasty restaurant. Nice ambience and buzz but not too busy, a hidden gem! We would definitely return and recommend the salmon tagine.

Really quiet when we went, which is a shame because the service was lovely, and the food & wine were excellent. Cosy little place that I hope to go back to

Each dish cooked to perfection and served with a smile. No better dinning experience could be imagined. I write this after vacationing in the UK eating out for 3 weeks. I look forward to my next visit!

Really welcoming and cosy restaurant. We went for the shared mezze starter which was the best we've ever had. So many delicious flavours! Had a fabulous lamb tagine for main which was equally as tasty. We also shared a bottle of morrocan red wine which was very nice indeed Highly recommend and we will definitely be back!

We loved Al Fassia, downstairs was a bit plain, although busy but upstairs was wonderful! It was traditionally decorated in a Moroccan style and was stunning, the ambiance was perfect. The food was incredible, everything was delicious with an excellent vegetarian range (two of our party were veggies) The food was explained by the attentive waiters and service was outstanding! I will definitely be going back and can highly recommend this little gem to anyone.

Transportés au Maroc par la décoration par les plats succulents et raffinés. Le propriétaire est très accueillant, souriant et d'une gentilesse. Il s'exprime aussi en français et en arabe et à beaucoup d'humour A l'étage vous trouverez un salon à la marocaine.. très coloré.

Thank you for making my last donner in Windsor, so special! Delicious food!!

Good vegetarian options available. The vegan sharing platter for 2 had massive portions and we loved the variety. The service provided by the team was top notch and we look forward to coming again

Lovely little restaurant in Windsor. The food was delicious and authentic, the service quick and efficient. One of the best Moroccan meals I've tasted in the UK.

Delicious food and amazing staff. Such a wonderful family that own this restaurant along with the hotel and restaurant in Marrakech. Couldn't recommend enough!!!

Excellent food , fantastic service and friendly helpful staff . We have been here many times and love it . Would definitely recommend

DO NOT eat here!!! By far the worst Moroccan food I’ve ever had. We were so looking forward to trying the food here after visiting the website and looking through the menu but were thoroughly disappointed. It was an early Father’s Day treat but we wish we hadn’t bothered! The homemade Moroccan bread was stale, the lamb kebabs were bland and tasteless, my dad’s lamb tagine was also poor, he said it lacked flavour and was very disappointed. My mum had chicken kebabs but they looked like they weren’t cooked properly and the chips were lukewarm. The decor in the restaurant is tired and needs updating and the waiters weren’t friendly. Didn’t even bring a jug of water or anything to the table. Do yourselves a favour and save your money!

Wonderful local restaurant, delicious food and friendly service. We had the set menu and it was so much food we ended up taking some home!
