Amazing restaurant and i had a great experience With all the staff specially our host amir sahri Very friendly bar

Shoutout to John and the staff at Soussi. My sister and I went in on a Saturday night and enjoyed the vibes, hospitality, food, hookah, drinks, & Moroccan tea. So good!! We had the calamari, hummus, and shrimp tagine as our starters. Delicious! The steak tagine as our entree, was exquisite, perfectly seasoned. It was a tad cold but John with his exceptional customer service provided us with a heater to make us more comfortable. We truly appreciated his dedication to providing a pleasant experience for our first time. We will certainly be back. Thank you!

10/10! I had a blast & the restaurant experience was phenomenal! If you are looking for a vibe this the place... music, food, & hookah was it! BUT my favorite part was the manager John who took great care of us! Just moved to DC & I found my go to spot:)

Let me talk about John for one second. He is fantastic! The hookah is 10/10 the best in the city! Music is not number 2; it's number 1. Stop everything you are doing and come here NOW.

I haven't been here in years but today's experience has me wanting more. The servers were so kind and made me blush on numerous occasions. If you looking for a spot with chill vibes, great food, and wonderful people then do yourself a favor and get yo butts in them seats!

This is a hidden gem in DC. It has become my DC late night home. Great hookah, amazing food and better people. John (the manager) and Betty took amazing care of me and remembered me each time I came into town. If you're ever in DC...... please make it your business to come.

Wish there was more seating, especially in the hotter seasons. With no fan outside, you're absolutely baking by sitting outside. Cocktails are decent, but expensive. Hookah lounge upstairs with sofa and service. Public restrooms. Service was interesting. Our server made a face when we asked to split the check. There was also a bit of a language barrier with accents and such. My guest enjoyed the cake they offer for dessert, but didn't finish it. Parking is rough.

Yummy food, good service, and hookah? Wow. What a nice place to just sit and vibe with friends! Fries were the fave snack as they were amazingly crunchy and crisp! The fried Brie was to die for. I had never tried anything kind it! It was similar to a cinnamon apple pie but it's cheese on toast?? Wow. I was mind blown. The manager was also nice enough to take some shots with our table! Thank you! Will definitely have to come back!

6 of us dined and hung out here for several hrs on a sat. evening. A friend is traveling to Morocco soon and wanted to try the counties food before going. We went upstairs which is lounge like and comfortable for a group. Later the the area became filled with hookah smokers. If you have trouble navigating stairs you may not want to venture up there. We ordered a variety of appetizers including pita and hummus (to be honest the hummus tasted store bought) and the pita bread was fluffy and served warm. The person who is traveling wanted to try the lamb on the menu and they didn't have any. She and a few others ended up ordering the jambalaya which was kind of comical--Moroccan jambalaya! I had the masculin salad which was huge (enough for 3) and enjoyed it. I also had mint tea which was served nicely and tasted great. It's sweetened upon arrival. We had a good time. Service was fine. I would return if in the area. Didn't take pictures!
