El Mansour, established in 1976, has enjoyed a recent move next door from its original location on Clement Street in the Richmond District. Proprietors Jack and Houda Tanverakul reconstructed their vision of a Moroccan dining quarters with fabrics and textiles shipped from various parts of Morocco. In addition to the materials, the traditional menu has experienced a rebirth with new tagines and kebabs.

"With the lively entertainment, friendly service, good food and reasonable prices, El Mansour has something for just about everyone..." -Michael Bauer, San Francisco Chronicle March 2004
