ÜÜMA - Bar à Couscous in Genève - Telefonnummer, Reservierungen, Bewertungen

The first time I came it was extraordinary the second time it became average and the third fourth and five times they didn't even bother to remember my reservation or even come and note it and to my When we arrived, nothing was ready and the fifth one. They didn't even say that we could notify the customer that we were missing ingredients, so I had to travel four times for nothing to plan the boxes for a service that I like, the word mediocre would be a compliment which is a shame is that we are good once and we are not constant that's the problem of Geneva and people who think that everything is acquired so for me it doesn't even deserve a star

Lovely Couscous bar, highly recommended!

10/10 - Ramadan Menu recommended!

Excellent couscous, cleanliness of the place, nothing to complain about, very professional staff!!!

Beautiful atmosphere, we traveled during the lunch break to Morocco. The chicken couscous was delicious and the welcome was warm. I will come back to taste the other dishes on the menu.

Small, very welcoming, simple, very clean restaurant. Lemon chicken tagine very very good and vegetarian couscous also.

I ordered a lamb shank tagine, and I was very disappointed to see the dish which was not even well garnished for the price and without any accompaniment. With a small bowl of semolina in addition I got it for 46 Fr.. I am shocked for three prunes, two apricots and three large pieces of walnuts thrown on a lamb shank.

I don’t know why in Geneva no restaurant is capable of making good couscous. Only individuals know how to do it correctly. As for the portions, they are generous. On the other hand, the vegetables are tasteless and the meatballs are industrial. Only semolina is good. I won't come there anymore

Nothing incredible, very expensive, couscous too salty. The positive point is the terrace outside in summer

Very friendly staff and excellent food.

First and last time! We've been wanting to try this couscous bar for a while and just had a couscous and a tagine to take away. According to the menu, the tagine is accompanied by homemade bread. Back home, we had the unpleasant surprise to discover that the “homemade bread” was in fact a common industrial white bread (see photo) and that the tagine consisted of a few meatballs and an egg floating in tomato sauce… At 29 CHF per dish, we certainly won't go back!

The best couscous in Switzerland

Update January 2024 : Just been again for evening meal at Uuma. Still our favourite couscous restaurant. So good! Lovely staff too. Thank you ! Went to Uuma for Sunday brunch this weekend. As others have said, the place has a lovely atmosphere and super nice staff (who were really nice with my son who was hot and hungry!). Delicious brunch too. Varied and tasty. Will definitely be back for couscous days during the week!

Ordered on Uber eats. As good as my grandmother's. Nothing to say

Having known the restaurant from the beginning, the quality has really gone down - the vegetables really didn't have a good taste or smell.. disappointed we hope it will improve but for the moment no plans to return….

The tea a la mente Marocquin is very good At the couscous bar uuma the Moroccan salad is very good at At the couscous bar uuma the coffee is very At the couscous bar uuma I am Adrián puente willy I am going to come with my Mother to eat At the bar a uuma couscous thank you to you At the uuma couscous bar

Just wonderful!!! Everything is good and the place is impeccably decorated! I recommend 1000%

For regulars of the restaurant since its opening, we are very disappointed!! The quality of couscous is constantly deteriorating... for my part it is couscous balls which at first were exquisite and now all dry and hard and the vegetables in water without even the taste of broth and dry semolina without sauce. Really disappointed! And at the price of couscous we really expect to eat real Moroccan couscous like at the beginning 😞 but it’s the big disappointment!!! The little one took a chicken skewer plate which was dry and lacked seasoning. I hope they will do it again because the concept is just great for a city like Geneva.

Delicious food and very nice service from the two guys who own the place! You can feel the Berber atmosphere due to the interior design and artisana - Highly recommend ;)

I recommend! I ate a good chicken lemon tagine, the portion size was small but sufficient. The pastries are really excellent and the tea too. The setting is pretty, the service was great with kindness and a smile. The only small flaw is that the chairs are very pretty but really uncomfortable.

Having tasted the couscous as well as the brunch, this restaurant guarantees you a culinary journey of the Berber world. Good quality food and very tasty. Best couscous like mom. Top service, meeting Nazim and Nabil, very welcoming and attentive. I recommend it to you .

EXCELLENT meal, top service, very welcoming staff, meal made with fresh produce, I traveled to Morocco while in Geneva, I will come back without hesitation and I recommend UUMA 100%! 👍🏽

Never again Üüma! We were very excited about eating oriental cuisine. But the experience will prove catastrophic and will certainly not be repeated to the extent that the unforgivable happened. Let's start at the beginning. A more than obvious lack of comfort with an installation on a table made for 2 people while there were 3 of us. Stools not very comfortable to sit on for an entire meal. Long order taking despite a room that was far from full. Couscous is a convivial and family dish which must be served generously (it remains semolina and vegetables in absolute terms!!!) the plates lack consistency and the couscous is drowned in the sauce despite a request to serve the sauce separately when taking orders. The vegetables were seriously undercooked. (Carrots and zucchini much too firm). The restaurant has no atmosphere. (A background of Berber music would be nice). To make matters worse, 2 out of 3 of us were sick that day, diagnosed with food poisoning. Our royal couscous has something in common!!! On the dock, merguez and kofta. Unfortunately, we will never know which of the two is at the origin of our misfortune. The positive points are: The strength of the couscous bar concept The pleasure of seeing young people having a business. Staff who want to be friendly. My recommendations: Taste what you serve (raw vegetables). Review hygiene more than ever or, failing that, in your defense, the choice of your meat supplier. Put on background music with oriental notes to reinforce the idea of ​​a culinary journey. Serve generous plates and offer a doggybag. People will advertise you for free when you ask them the next day at the office where they bought their couscous which looks so good! Good luck despite everything.

Great North African restaurant! The food was very good, the service very attentive and nothing to complain about the decoration which allows for total immersion. We recommend 100%.

Really nice place, the food is incredibly good. The people working there are really welcoming also.

A very good discovery! The dishes were delicious, real Moroccan flavors. A big thank you to the team who welcomed us very warmly and who took us to Morocco. We recommend and will come back :)

Very good cuisine, fresh produce, well done to the cook and the waiters, I recommend 🌞👏👏👏

An address to meet in the Maghreb in Geneva Good welcome and good food

New in Geneva... beautiful atmosphere, family cuisine (really homemade), topical products on site or to take away!

We came to find out most restaurants are only opening late. But with kids we want to have an early dinner. I have never had such a good meal and kids are still asking to go back

Exxellent. Very delicious, super nice service, super generous, cozy. Menu to combine, family flavor. You have to come back again and again.

Top notch welcome and service Very good dishes, great experience

Frankly mixed.. so the waiter was very smiling and kind, nothing to say I was in a hurry to taste because I discovered this address on the internet but suddenly disappointed! the dishes are not worth the prices, too high for the quality. Not great, sorry, let's just say. Quantity is fine, it remains reasonable we will say but in terms of bread sauce it is very little😦.

Excellent food, lovely staff and warm atmosphere…we highly recommend this address!

Awesome ! We tried the brunch with kofta tagine, delicious. The honey was truly amazing. Very warm service.

The couscous and the skewers are very good… the cooking was perfect. Warm welcome and top-notch service.

We came to celebrate my father's 60th birthday. Everything was perfect! The dishes are a pure delight and the service is TOP! An address that we recommend!

Excellent address 👌🏻 meals and service at the top! I recommend !

Delicious! I find the flavors, the warmth of Morocco 🇲🇦❤️

Exquisite dish I recommend and the boss is super nice, very professional, thank you for my excellent kofta tagine

Just wonderful at the top I recommend!!! Perfect warm welcome!! What can I say about this Berber cuisine which reminds me of our childhood!!! I will definitely come back!! Thank you again for this taste journey!!!

Great Moroccan restaurant, soon a couscous.. Prosperity at this restaurant

Tried for the first time, nice decor, but the value for money leaves something to be desired. 30- couscous with veal, few vegetables, semolina drowned in broth... a particular taste of soap in the mouth... to ultimately end up with FOOD POISONING! I will have a hard time going back 🤢

Berber breakfast. Exquisite msemen. Welcoming staff.

Everything there was really delicious. The dishes are tasty. Very hearty Royal Couscous even without the supplements. Just missing small plates to eat the starters that we share. The welcome is warm. I will go back there.

Good quality couscous. Vegetarian options too!!

I’m Aftema with my family from London The food was delicious and was amazing it was Moroccan food very fast service and friendly work environment and amazing scenery would come again 10/10

Delicious couscous and excellent service, we really love to come here with my daughter!

Warm welcome and excellent couscous. I recommand it !!

Poorly reheated and expensive couscous

Just wonderful! I discovered this couscous bar with my husband. Having origins ourselves, we are often afraid of being disappointed (whether it is either too bland or not cooked enough, etc.) Honestly, go there with your eyes closed!! The managers have a smile, the welcome is warm, and the decor transports you simply but effectively! Congratulations, you have won our loyalty! Thanks to the cook 🙏🏽

I enjoyed a succulent, hearty veal coucous at a reasonable price, all in a neat place, tastefully decorated and welcoming and smiling owners. Good concept, great experience. Please note that you must reserve because the establishment is small, few tables available and therefore quickly full. See you soon to try the brunch! 😉

Superb address. The restaurant is very warm as well as the staff. The food is simply sublime and incredibly good. Don't hesitate, go ahead

Felt like visiting Morocco again! Super recommended

Excellent and very good service.

We ate at uuma concept with colleagues this evening. The dishes, the decor, even the friendliness of the servers, everything is perfect. A varied choice of dishes, quality products and a decoration reminiscent of the magnificent country of Morocco. The harira is so tasty not to mention the kofta tagine which is incredibly good. The only big negative point is that when you enter this restaurant, it is difficult to leave… 😂 By far one of the best, if not the best, in Geneva 😉 See you soon

A delight, very generous and beautifully decorated.

Very expensive for an unfresh meal, slow and disorganized service, and a dish that we are still digesting 24 hours later… Never again!

Flavors like in Morocco, exceptional place!

Very nice discovery. The decoration is charming and exotic. The dishes are served generously and the service is impeccable. It is delicious. 👌🏻👌🏾

an excellent couscous! I recommend 😁

A little professional look…. Excellent meats, top semolina, like the welcome…. We need lots of little UUMAs so that everyone can enjoy them! To do and redo

The best couscous in Geneva. Impeccable welcome, very professional, I recommend it!

Excellent welcome, very friendly setting and magnificent food, the Sunday brunch great.

A great experience and a warm place

The real Moroccan couscous I'm happy to have this address. It's difficult to find very good ones.

Very good, very nice welcome… well done

This restaurants needs to be considered for two options - either their couscous or their tajine. Their tajines are scrumptious with the chicken being my absolute favourite - definitely by far my favourite tajine experience. I am not a big fan of couscous in general, and opinions may vary depending on your preferences and how much couscous you’ve had. However the common points that are always great are the quality and freshness of the ingredients - that is something Uuma does great. Prices are to the level of Swiss standards, and I must admit that I find the tajines slightly pricey albeit they are truly high quality. Overall my experience there was great with absolutely lovely staff!

A more than warm welcome, delicious and more than generous hellos. Unfailing kindness from the bosses. A delight. Very warm and typical decor.

We tried it when it opened, it was very good and we went back recently, it was tasteless, vegetables cooked in water and tasteless and all for 25 chf! Disappointed, I won't go back!

A warm welcome, magnificent decoration, delicious food...in short, a great discovery! 😍 I tried the Sunday brunch and I can't wait to go back for the couscous.

Very friendly and warm welcome. Top cuisine, exquisite taste and flavor, very well served. Take a look, you won't be disappointed.

Very friendly concept, motivated team, quality food, fair price! This was missing in Geneva!

Brilliant concept. Beautiful culinary journey, varied and healthy choice, friendly service and very reasonable prices. Just perfect ! This restaurant also has an awesome Sunday brunch (which is now on my favorites list). You have the choice between a formula and à la carte dishes. The formula set at 45.- includes a tagine of your choice (notably kefta or lemon chicken) which is served with a fairly thick (and delicious) pancake as well as 3 Moroccan breads (msemen, bagjrir or pancake with a thousand holes and bot bot). The breads are served with accompaniments of your choice including honey, argan, amlou or even scrambled egg). The formula also includes a large cup of mint tea. The service is attentive, super warm and attentive. This address is truly a pearl and a breath of fresh air in Eaux-Vives. This brunch took me back a few years during one of my trips to Morocco. All the dishes are tasty and authentic, we feel that the products are of quality I can only recommend it to anyone wanting to get a taste of Moroccan cuisine.

Nothing to say about the welcome, the service and the food! The couscous is very hearty and we can feel Morocco in our dishes, no tourist trap :) it’s a shame there aren’t more choices of tagines.

Excellent couscous! good products, tasty vegetables, friendly and fast service. Very good address!

A very nice place where we were made to feel welcome. The tagine is very good :)

Simple but concept of couscous to choose from, very good

Really great, the same couscous as Yema

Everything is perfect, from the welcome, to the service, the couscous is delicious if it's your first, don't hesitate to be guided by the staff who will be able to advise you ;)

Delicious and the managers are absolutely adorable! I highly recommend it and especially the Sunday brunch...yum!

The couscous was excellent. Nothing to say. Just wonderful. Everything was perfect. Highly recommended.

Excellent service, good value for money

Too too good. A change of scenery guaranteed. I recommend <3

Super warm setting and staff and top-notch food! I will go back without hesitation!

Very satisfied. Top notch service.

A great find! Discovered on Tik Tok, this restaurant is a gem in Geneva! The service is more than pleasant, and the excellent food complemented by a refined decoration, 10/10 and my compliments to the chef!

It was a very, very good meal! The portions are sufficient and it's very good

A nice welcome :) from the employees! Quantity and quality on the menu, delicious couscous. I will return without hesitation

Food was absolutely incredible!! Staff was amazing too, just a bit of a shame that you don’t get plain couscous with the menu/tajine to eat with it. But food was really delicious especially the chicken with caramelised onions. Thank you!!!

Delicious typical Moroccan brunch. A marvel, a return to basics guaranteed! Warm and smiling welcome, authentic and refined cuisine.

This place is magical! A real culinary journey, everything is good and the service is top notch!

Hard to rate this place anything but 5 stars - great portions which really make you feel like you're getting your money's worth (uncommon in Geneva), always served by two guys in a great mood and with a big smile, and simply delicious couscous. Pro tip: get the harissa sauce on the side, it's awesome but mega spicy.

Best couscous in Geneva, the quality speaks for itself 😋😋😋

Excellent! Superb quality! Contemporary atmosphere! Why hasn’t this been done before!

Excellent! Fast and effective! We were waiting for this kind of establishment in Geneva! Bravo to Nabil and his colleague

Finally a restaurant that serves authentic couscous! A true delight! The quality and quantity are there. The price is reasonable. And the little extras, the decor is beautiful, the service friendly. Don't forget to also take some pastries to complete the escape! I plan to come back for brunch.

Top place, very friendly staff, delicious meal, great decor! Inside or on the terrace, to try!

Excellent couscous. Smiling and super friendly service

Everything is perfect! From the decor to the background music. Excellent cuisine with fresh, homemade products. The concept is also very innovative. Well done to the whole team! Looking forward to going back!
