Goat in the Tree in Glasgow City

The restaurant is small but beautifully decorated, very quiet as there was only another couple in the restaurant... the food is delicious and at a reasonable price... The only thing is... The waitress is not very friendly or helpful and has forgotten to learn how to smile!!! We loved the lamb couscous... But we won't go back as we didn't feel welcome!

It's a small cosy cafe with good food.

Authentic Moroccan experience in Glasgow If you love Moroccan food, this place is a must-visit! You can bring your own wine 😁

Booked several days ago for 7:30pm tonight. Received acknowledgement of booking via text and phone number but in a vague language saying it's 'pending confirmation'. Received no confirmation or rejection and had to call to find out what happened. Booking ID was 2303. Told it was rejected but no communication received until I called. Also had to call three times to get an answer. Apparently you respond on here pretty quickly to a one star review.

Oh my goodness , delicious food lovely staff would highly recommend.

As someone with Moroccan family, I do miss the cuisine. This place hits the nail on the head and definitely scratched the itch for Moroccan food. Very authentic. Lovely family-run restaurant that made me feel right at home as if I was with my own family. Thank you very much for the lovely food and a lovely experience provided :) Would recommend ordering the Djej M’hamer!

A Moroccan-themed restaurant, the food was amazing, the service was amazing, the place is somewhat limited and the tables are small, the price is reasonable.

Fairly small restaurant so quite quiet. Food was outstanding. Very friendly and helpful service. I went with my sister and her partner and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Will definitely be back. Just over £20/head for 2 starters and 3 mains and 1 Irn Bru.

This place is so so nice. Such comfy and cozy vibes with the teapots and the lighting is always nice and relaxed. It’s a family owned place, the woman who greets you and makes the teas is so friendly. You have to get the tagine and the sharing platter was soo good. The chicken wings are honestly so good idk how they make them but def a must try.

cold or slightly warm when food arrived.

Nice food the only thing I can say I would have put some Arabic music and a waiters more smiley and talkative. SHE NEED TO BE SHOW HOW TO DO THE TEA sorry the tea was so so bad and the bread from microwave was so hard like a rock but the food it’s perfect the tajine very very good ❤️

Excellent food and lovely place to eat. Will definitely have again. Thank you :)

A fantastic restaurant for a taste of Morocco. The staff were really friendly and helpful, food was delicious.

A nice wee place with friendly service. I ordered vegetable tagine and although not unpleasant the food was also not great - it was somewhat undercooked for tagine with a lot of liquid broth and the potato and carrot having a bit of bite to them (personally I prefer tagine to have been cooked slow and low for a long time until the vegetables are super tender). My partner and I both found the food to be quite bland for Moroccan food, sweet and mostly just tasting like stock rather than the complex and fragrant layers of flavour we’d expect. We’re aware that after multiple trips to Morocco we’ve been spoiled for excellent tagine dishes and are likely harsh judges. This place is fine and appreciated in Glasgow where there is a lack of good Moroccan restaurants but I wouldn’t choose to eat here again.

Amazing authentic Moroccan food.

The food is excellent from A to Z, we enjoyed ourselves. The service is perfect, the atmosphere is cozy and the waitress is adorable. Thank you so much

I had such a nice evening at The Goat in the Tree. The staff, services and food were amazing. I would recommend the sharing platter appetiser

Lovely dinner out for 2 on a Friday night. The restaurant was very accommodating by fitting us in for a last minute booking in the late evening. We enjoyed a couple of starters, the goat tagine with couscous, ans the gorgeous caramel cheesecake. The restaurant is homely and welcoming, will definitely be back.

Great experience in this restaurant. Second time we visited it today. We arrived without reservation and we got a wee table. We ordered sausages and chicken pastilla as starters - both were delicious, especially the pastilla. For mains, we got the lamb tagine and the chicken tagine with couscous. Both of them were delicious, the meat melted in your mouth and the flavour of both tagines was incredible! The portions were quite big and we were so full we couldn't order any dessert. We will come back to eat the Moroccan crepes -Msemmen- next time. We got them the first time and they were so tasty!

A fabulous family run restaurant. Everything made fresh and home made. Cheap enough and very filling.

Food is fantastic and the staff are really great

First visit to goat in the tree and we were not disappointed. My partner and I booked the restaurant for our 10 year anniversary and it was the perfect intimate setting with a maximum of 6 tables. The food was incredible, cooked fresh and so flavoursome. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for authentic Moroccan food in Glasgow.

Amazing food. The lamb tagine is probably the best item on the menu. Every visit is worth it and the staff are friendly. The place is fairly small but does have bookings online so having a few people isn't a problem. The desserts are just as good as the mains and well worth revisiting.

The perfect place to satisfy a craving for mint tea and tagine. Cosy and friendly. Family run and welcoming.

We were in here for my husband’s birthday with his mum we all loved the food & the service was brilliant. So glad we found this wee gem of a place.

Small restaurant with only a handful of tables. Fine food & ambience. Excellent dining experience.

We arrived at 5:50pm(we reserved a table at 6pm) looking forward to a delicious meal and meeting up with family for a catch-up, to be told our table wasn't ready please come back at 6. OK, we were early, so that was our fault and the place is tiny so they can't accommodate people standing about... but it should have rung alarm bells of what was to come... We ordered the sharing platter to start which was delicious, followed by the goat tagine and Moroccan chicken, both dishes were hearty if a touch bland, but tasty nonetheless. You're possibly wondering, so why the low score? Well, here it comes... We were looking forward to dessert( the cheesecake reviews were awesome) , when we eventually caught the server's eye to ask for the dessert menu we were told, we don't have time to have a dessert as the next diners were due in at 7:45.... it was now 7:37pm.WHAT???? I appreciate the place is tiny, but after spending close to £100( in total) for food ( party of 3) I didn't see that coming!! I've never been hoofed out of a restaurant to make way for the"next round of diners" There was no mention of a 105 minute dining curfew when we booked online, or indeed when we eventually got to our table. To say we were stunned was an understatement. If we wanted a fast food type experience we would have gone elsewhere. We ordered the desserts to go, received then in a paperbag and went home feeling slightly disgruntled.... Not the best experience

Really nice authentic Moroccan food the staff are happy to help and the lamb tagine was and the rice is delicious

Amazing experience and nice Moroccan food. Elizabeth and her husband Abdullah were very friendly and welcoming. We felt like visiting a family house not dining at a restaurant.

Lovely food and a very friendly staff. We will definitely be going back.

Very good food! And, according to my brother, the best baklava I've ever tasted!

Delicious and authentic Moroccan food. The lamb tagine is absolutely divine. Lovely friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Will be back (for a 4th visit!)

Amazing place! Food is outstanding! Been several times now and never disappoints! You can BYOB which is a bonus 😍 the lamb tagine is to die for! And the cheesecake oh my! Washed down with a pot of traditional Morrocan tea - cannot fault this wee gem of a place - my favourite eatery by far! ❤️

Honestly my favorite meal in a restaurant full stop. The food was incredible, and the family run atmosphere makes you feel welcome.

Real life ratatouille experience happened here. Great wee spot!! High quality, authentic food :)

Awwww I LOVE this place! Visited for the first time last night after walking past it for a few months and being charmed by the name and observing how busy it is, and the warm atmosphere radiating from it. A wee restaurant,just 5 or 6 tables but such a cosy and inviting space, with twinkly lights and lanterns. The waitress was very friendly and welcoming. My pal and I shared hummus (AMAZING HUMMUS) and pitta and then both had lamb tagine. It was so flavoursome and warming and sweet and savoury. The chefs here are skilled. I'll be back for sure! 💓

I don’t like tea, but I tried the Moroccan tea and…FROM NOW ON I LOVE TEAAAA!!! (Only Moroccan tea). I came all the way from Edinburgh and the food(and the tea) was AMAZING period. I met jasmine and the other girl, the ones at the cashier, they were so friendly and nice I loved them😭😭❤️thank you for this experience. I’ll be DEFINITELY coming back!!!

Always amazing and over the expectation every time! 💕💕💕💕best chef ever, friendly staff and authentic food

We have been back 5 times in the past few months and the food has been excellent on each visit as per my last review shown below. Brilliant food and great service Loved it and will definitely go back Well done to you for creating a great restaurant

Great authentic Moroccan tagines, very flavoursome. Lamb with prunes was excellent, the lamb very tender as was the chicken in the tagine. Merguez sausage spicy and tasty as a starter. Great Moroccan tea. I would have liked bread seved with my tagine to add to the authenticity of the experience but overall it was an excellent dining experience and we got great service.

Incredible food and great service. Hand made, family run business, it felt like a little haven off the noisy street. Highly recommend!

Beautiful food! The lamb melted in my mouth and every dish we had was delicious! The Louisa tea is a must try. First time I've had it outside of Morroco and it was so refreshing, just like i remember it! I will be back and highly recommend to others to try it out too

Great little spot, amazing filling food and at a very very fair price! Loved it :)

I visited the restaurant and tried to find a table, but unfortunately it was full The number of tables is small

Really nice lunch at a good price. I had the lamb with couscous and it was delicious.

amazing food, extremely tasty. would order again if no other reason than to have the tagine absolutely amazing

Cosy place for Moroccan experience.

First time visiting and definitely won't be the last! We had the lamb couscous and it was lush 👌🏻

Still dreaming about that lamb tagine with the prunes. The starter platter was just enough for the 3 of us, everything on it was really good, included wings which aren't in the photo. We got 2 mains between the 3 of us, they were just enough but next time I'm going to keep that tagine all for myself, it was so good lol Service was good, not sure of our server was new but it seemed like she was still learning. Lovely girl though, nothing against her. There is a service charge added to your bill if you are wary of such things. Atmosphere was relaxed. I will definitely be back.

Friendly small, cosy restaurant. Friend and I managed to get table just as someone leaving by luck. Very tasty food reminding me of hols in Morocco. Will definitely return.

Fantastic authentic Morroccan food. A1

Lovely wee place! Loved the lamb tagine, the meat balls are also very good. I highly recommend it.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Goat on the tree, and I was thoroughly impressed with the experience. The couscous was incredibly tasty, bursting with authentic flavors that transported me straight to the heart of Morroco. Each bite was a delight, with perfectly cooked grains and a medley of vegetables, meat, and spices that complemented each other beautifully. The overall ambiance of the restaurant made me feel right at home. The welcoming staff and cozy atmosphere created a perfect setting for an enjoyable meal. I am already looking forward to my next visit and will certainly be coming back many times. Highly recommended! 😊

Lovely honest food, good price and fresh

Wow what amazing food, good size portions and everything cooked fresh. Will definitely be back through to eat here again. Inshalla

Just found this lovely restaurant when passing. A small family run restaurant with stunning food and authentic Moroccan atmosphere

Travelled through from Stirling, having booked a table, only to be told when we arrived the restaurant had double booked and could not accommodate us. Update, returned today with a friend. Got a table outside no problem. Must admit the food was really good as was the service, so initial disappointment neutralised, would Def recommend and return but will double check we have a table 😄.

Love Moroccan cuisine. Ordered a lamb tagine with some couscous on the side and a couple of starters. The food was delicious and cooked/served with love by the family owning the restaurant. Will be back in no time!

Delicious food, decent prices, cozy atmosphere, nice people. I recommend the halloumi ❤️

Had the Moroccan mint tea . Very friendly and welcoming staff. Seems like a family run restaurant and is cozy. Will definitely be coming back to try some of the food.

Lovely food, very relaxed atmosphere with BYOB.

Best Moroccan food I've had yet. We had the Lamb Tagine and Cous Cous, so tender that the meat fell off the bone.

Amazing food!! I got the veggie couscous and it had such amazing flavours.. Deffo recommend this place!!

Amzing food, friendly service, very authentic atmosphere 👌 The lamb couscous is top (algerian validated haha). I wanted to try the Pastilla for the first time and it was definitely worth it. I am in love with that restaurant

The restaurant is small but very busy; we visited at 7.45pm on a Tuesday, and every table was occupied until the restaurant closed. I would highly recommend booking ahead or risk disappointment Having been to Morocco a few years back and falling in love with the country and cuisine, we realised it was difficult to find a restaurant in Scotland that served authentic Moroccan cuisine. When planning a trip to Glasgow, we booked a table after looking over the menu and seeing that pastillas were on offer; my husband practically lived on this dish during our holiday, but unfortunately these have proved impossible for us to find in Scotland and a difficult dish to master making at home. Overall our visit here was a no brainer. The food was absolutely incredible and seasoned impeccably. The pastilla, which after years of waiting had a lot to live up to, was absolutely incredible. We also had the Merguez, lamb tagine, Moroccan chicken, baklava, and m'semmen; all were wonderful and we'd forgotten what a great tagine should taste like. In total the meal came to around £51 which I think is more than reasonable for three courses for two people in 2024. Due to the exceptional quality of the meal, we spoke to the waitress when she was clearing our table (I think her name was Kirsty? - she was really lovely!) and spoke about how we had tried to find pastillas in Scotland and how very much we had enjoyed our food. When the time came to pay, she had passed our praise on to the chef and he came out to thank us personally with, to my husband's joy, a pastilla for us to take home. This was a complete surprise and was appreciated very much by us. All of the staff care deeply about their restaurant and the experience of their guests, and all were absolutely lovely. We are still stunned by their generosity and kindness. We will definitely be back when we are next in Glasgow!

If you like Moroccan cuisine, please do not miss out on a visit to here, easy to reach on the tube and a great restaurant with fantastic food and friendly staff

Absolutely beautiful and tasty authentic Moroccan food, friendly and helpful staff in a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended.

An excellent 5pm service and the lamb in the Tangine perfect Tangine slo-cooked

The best lamb tagine I have tasted. Food is amazing . Fantastic service and lovely atmosphere. BYOB works well. A hidden gem .

Lovely place, lovely staff and delicious lamb tagine. I came here 4 times and I just keep ordering the same thing every time because it's so good 😋

Great wee place. Superb Moroccan food and BYOB.

The food was great. Got lamb and veg cous cous which was customised to my liking. Houmous was amazing and had great flavour. Will definitely order again 😊

Really enjoyable meal. The food was lovely, and the owner who was serving us was really nice. It was a really wet, miserable night weather wise, so the restaurant was super quiet, unfortunately, so there was no real atmosphere as such, but it was still a really nice night. Would recommend.

Ate here tonight and had an absolutely delightful experience. Came in cold and hungry and got treated like royalty. Beautiful mint tea served in silver, excellent food, nice and engaging but not overbearing proprietor. Gentle music and a candle. Class. Can't recommend this place enough. Only in Glasgow for a week but we're thinking about coming back. Really good deal for the money. Go and enjoy it.

Delicious moroccan food. Wee taste of my lovely Morocco 😊 Great service. Lamb tagine 10 stars 👌🏻 شكرًا لك

We had the lamb and chicken tagines. Fantastic, great taste, great food and excellent service. Well worth a visit. Looking forward to going again soon. A great find.

we had a fairly complex note, and they managed it very well. The food was very good, although the pizza was cooler than I would have liked.

My husband and I came on a Saturday night and had a beautiful meal!! All of the food was delicious, some of the best food we've eaten in Glasgow, particularly the chicken pastilla starter! It was a lovely homely atmosphere and we will definitely be recommending this restaurant to everyone!

Food was amazing in this family run restaurant. Would definitely recommend if you want authentic Moroccan food.

Delicious food on time and warm with Curtis delivery person

The food is fantastic, especially the taginr. I'm also partial to a Moroccan mint hot choc on the go from here. The staff are always friendly and the unit is very well decorated and homely. It also always smells incredible.

As a moroccan i highly recommend it, It’s the original moroccan food, you will love it.

beautiful restaurant with an authentic and homey feel! the meatball tagine was delicious 10/10 would recommend

10/10 highly recommended! Very yummy Moroccan food

Super delicious food. I'm amazed by everything in there. Loved it very much, we'll be the regular 😎

We visited here based on an online review we saw and weren't disappointed. I had the lamb tagine and my girlfriend had the chicken tagine. Both were outstanding. The very definition of a hidden gem, highly recommended.

I have been to a Moroccan restaurant for the first time. It was like eating a meal prepared by a long-lost family member who is culinary genius. Familiar and Extraordinary. The lamb sausages were especially delicious. I like this place!

Authentic Moroccan food in Glasgow. My friend and I were in Scotland for the weekend, we searched for Middle Eastern/North African restaurants and here we are, we ended up in Goat in the tree. Lovely and cozy vibe in this place. I also admired the fact that it is a family business, serving authentic Moroccan recipes. The meatballs and lamb tajin were amazing, served with couscous on the side. We also ordered a side of traditional bread which was really good. If you’re there, don’t forget to order mint tea, it’s the best. We were lucky to find an empty table for 1hr or so.. but I think it is best to book a table here as the place is bit small and might not lack availability. Will definitely visit again next time in Glasgow.

Hidden gem in the West End, really tasty food with generous portion sizes. We shared the zaalouk to start which was very tasty, then had a lamb tagine which was really gorgeous. Maybe doesn’t look like much from the outside but very enjoyable, and friendly service. Will be back!

Very good quality and good value for money.

Friendly service, scrumptious food. Affordable prices. Will be back after I move to Glasgow in January. Thank you.

Delicious chicken and veg couscous 😋

It was amazing!! The food was great and the restaurant very nice. The chef was very nice to us and speak with my friend which was Moroccan. I am completely can said I will go again and again

This place is phenomenal. I just had my third visit and the service and food has been consistently excellent each time. I have taken different people with me each time and they have loved it as well. The waitress is very warm and attentive which really made my experience so thank you. The flavours are amazing and authentic and there are enough options for allergens. I love the cosy atmosphere and decor it's very relaxing. Tried the Morrocon mint hot chocolate which was made dairy free for me and yum 😋 Also tried the harira soup and it was delectable. Can't say enough positive things about this place.

Mi amiga y yo nos fuimos a comer allí , la verdad que el tajin de pollo con coucous , estuvo delicioso al igual que la ensalada, las aceitunas y las patatas fristas , lo recomiendo💯 , la amabilidad y el trato genial. Volvería ir allí . La cocina marroquí 🇲🇦 es la mejor . Me sentí como en casa . Gracias. Choukaran. Dima Magrib .

Just had a great meal here tonight. Lamb tagine with couscous just perfect. This is one of the best places we have eaten in Glasgow (and we eat out a lot). Highly recommended this place. Staff welcoming, just a thoroughly pleasant place to eat.

We came to the Goat in the Tree for tea on Friday as we where up for a wedding. The restaurant is a bit on the small side but the food was amazing. I had the chicken wings as a starter and misses has Chicken Pastilla My other family members had The hummus the starters where lovely. As the main I had the Lamb cous cous which was amazing everyone else has the vegetable Tagine (when you are offered Harrisa paste take it because it's great) The owner's where lovely kind and attentive I highly recommend coming here as it's well worth it.

Lovely authentic Moroccan restaurant, which reminded us of our travels to Morocco earlier this year. We had a sharing platter to start which was really well done & a mixture of tagines and the Moroccan chicken special for main courses. The mint tea and desserts to finish were all lovely too. The menu is great value for the quality of the dishes, is BYOB ( would recommend Cave round the corner for supplies) and has a cosy atmosphere with welcoming & friendly staff. We will be back and would recommend to anyone looking for some delicious Moroccan food in Glasgow. Thanks Goat in the Tree for a perfect Saturday night dinner!

Lovely evening, with great food. Lamb tagine was delicious and the chefs special chicken with spicy rice was yummy too.

Very good service and fantastic food Very delicious 😋 👌
