“A new concept making its debut on El Cajon Boulevard will put a spin on the cuisines of Morocco and Baja California by finding the crossroads between the two. Medina will open next month in North Park. Founder Alia Jaziri says the “refined fast-casual” eatery will be modern, colorful, and stylishly designed, featuring quick-service during the day and transforming into a lively beer and wine bar in the evening…”

    4.6/5 This place was amazing. Large portions, lots of flavor, and plenty of options. Usually can be skeptical of fusion dishes but they did not disappoint at all. The Medina fries had tons of flavor were fresh and crispy. The Couscous (a limited special I believe) was amazing. It came with a consumé type sauce that added a nice kick to the dish. The veggies were perfectly stewed and the couscous was a great vessel for the veggies. The server was great at giving suggestions so if you’re not sure what to order just ask! All the dishes we ordered were pretty large and we had leftovers even with a party of 4. This place has nice patio seating with great vibes all around. Will be coming back to try other dishes!

    Loved the merguez lamb taco. My friend enjoyed the chicken and fish taco. The baklava yogurt dessert was magical. Had topo chico and mexi coke for drinks. Great experience. Will come again and would recommend.

    This North African/Baja inspired restaurant has delicious, fresh tacos, bowls, and sandwiches. Located on El Cajon Blvd in North Park/University Heights area, it provides great value and quantity of food. I had the Moroccan Chicken Bowl. Others in our group had the Veggie Bowl, bowl of black beans, and the Cali Merguez sandwich with aioli fries. I also had the Moroccan Mint Iced Tea that has mint and honey. Everything was delicious and very filling. They have seating and offer to go orders. You order at the counter, and they bring your food to your table

    Very welcoming restaurant with friendly staff. We loved both their chicken bowl and Shakshouka (with lamb sausage). They are loaded with the perfect amount of flavors, and the bowl came with a very generous portion. The Merguez taco (with pita) is a mini-version of the bowl, which could be a better option for people with smaller appetites. We found their fish tacos a bit dry, but still a good bite.
