    Very rude waiter, after we got our harira (which was good) we had tajine that tasted absolutely awful, the worst I had in Morocco so far. The restaurant was dirty and not nicely decorated. Will not return.

    C'est un passage obligé quand on vient à Essaouira, situé sur la place qui mène au port, ce restaurant propose des menus à base de Tajine et de couscous pour 55dh dessert compris, et si comme nous vous n'êtes pas des trop gros mangeurs, un menu pour 2 devrait suffire... je recommande le tajine poulet oignons et raisin sec qui reste un must de la cuisine locale. A quatre avec du thé a la menthe 2 coca un jus de pomme frais nous en avons eu pour 215 Dh soit environ 20€ soit 5€/personnes. A noter que les toilettes sont propres ce qui est assez rare dans ce pays.

    Restaurante turístico en Essaouira, menús a buen precio aunque la calidad del pescado deja algo que desear. Teniendo en cuenta eso, seguramente no repetiría el pescado, pero lo demás estaba bueno. Lo bueno es que como estás rodeado de gatos les puedes dar de comer si no te gusta 🤭

    We thought that it might be a tourist trap as it's very close to teh beach. Yet we were surprised. Food was quite good at this price, with complimentary soup and dessert. It was very quiet when we arrived, only 2 other tables (maybe because of the bad review?) Interior decor is very local and elegant.

    We had a delicious grilled fish (a la carte) with tasty, home made chips and also the fried fish menu which also was tasty. Served with a smile. Good quality to price ratio. The location shown on google maps seems to be a bit off.

    We had dinner there and the tagine lamb with prunes was very yummy. Pasta was so so but still worth to go. The fresh juice was tasty as well.

    Lieu conviviale et chaleureux. Bonne ambiance et bon accueil. Cuisine excellente et menus à prix convenables. Décoration oroginale et typique de la ville d'Essaouira. Une très belle découverte.

    Une institution à Essaouira. Un restaurant qui est ouvert depuis des décennies. Un restaurant avec une cuisine propre, des serveurs très professionnels et certainement la meilleure grillade de poisson d'Essaouira. Alors dire que 60 Dhs c'est cher pour 1 entrée, plat, dessert et qu'en plus vous aillez toujours faim, je ne comprends pas. 5,50 euros. Mais vous voulez quoi en plus? Ces propos sont déplacés. C'est un très bon restaurant, rapport qualité prix. Et le personnel est très attentionné. J'y serais ce midi et toujours avec le même plaisir depuis 22 ans 👍

👍👍 This is a legendary spot and definitely a highlight of my Essaouira experience! The La Couple Signature Drink (picture 1) is really good. Really glad that I ordered the Poulpe Rôti roasted octopus dish (Picture 2) that was so incredible. Besides, the vibes here are excellent. Ideally you’d want to...

👍👍 One of the best places to go to for a chilled afternoon/sunset time! You’re on the beach, enjoying the sunset while listening to music, prices are fair, yes service is not the fastest but you can go to the bar and ask, that didn’t bother us too much. What you see is what you get :)

😐 Mega loft, more like mega disappointed. The ecstatic of the place is really nice. Each floor is decorated differently and offers a wide array of photo opportunities.

👍👍 Our first meal in Morocco and we were super happy with the friendly service and tasty food.
