    Amazing place! Prices are very cheap, food is amazing and portions are big, staff is incredibly nice and friendly. Try the iced tea specialty, it’s absolutely fantastic. Or the Coconut Kiss cocktail (the smoothies are all very fresh and delicious). Only disadvantage is that they allow smoking tobacco inside. But otherwise everything is perfect.

    We have been here the second time after our trip to morocco three years ago. It is a very friendly place and the food is great and the prices are fine. We can definitely recommend this place. We had the famous lemon juice, and. ‘Mama Poulet’ - very tasty.

    Loved everything I ate. Loved the music. Service is a bit slow but it's the Moroccan way so don't be surprised. I stayed in Marrakech for 4 days and had a smoothie from here every morning and managed to have two meals from here - both amazing. Smoothies were great too.

    Eclectic, trendy, hip these are three words that I would use to describe this restaurant. Like a Moxy hotel should be nearby. This is a local establishment meaning locals come to eat here, it isn’t a tourist trap like you find in the old town. Very tasty meal for two people was 170 dirhams €17 or maybe $18. Beware: people smoke inside and outside the restaurant.

    This place has such a unique vibe to it. Although the service was slow, it was worth the wait. I think one guy was handling everything, perhaps he's the owner so can't complain and he was so nice. You can tell the food was made with love. The wings and the "One Love" sandwich tasted delicious and so did the Mama fruit cocktail. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. The prices are cheap and the music suits the whole African vibe. The only thing that annoyed me was the flies and that there's only one toilet for both guys and girls.

    I'm impressed with the entire experience here. The service was impeccable, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was simply amazing. The restaurant's African-inspired decor creates a unique and cozy ambiance that transports you to another world. The music playing in the background perfectly complements the setting, making for an unforgettable dining experience. Overall, I would highly recommend Mama Afrika to anyone visiting Marrakech. The service is top-notch, the atmosphere is unforgettable, and the food is simply amazing. This is definitely a must-visit restaurant in the city! Best regards

    Cozy cafe serving African fusion food, coffee, juice and smoothly. I ordered beef over rice and a salad. Food was really good and I recommend this place if you want something different than Moroccan food.

    Great food, great vibes - the food (mama beef) was so tasty and the ice tea was amazing. Great value too. Tupac is the host with the most! Would give it 10 stars if I could, would highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Paulus H. 4 months ago on Google
    Great atmosphere, vibes, service, food and drinks. Finally meat in Morocco that isn’t super dry and over cooked. The juices are also great. Also delicious bread, soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Outstanding and definitely recommend this place :)

  • 5/5 Earl M. 6 months ago on Google
    Great lunch spot, cook/waiter was doing everything. They turned on the A/C since it was getting hot but cooled down quick. Had the chicken sandwich and house made peach tea was amazing. Bit smoky but there is outside smoking if you need it. Great reggae music playing.

  • 5/5 Maria Ruiz A. 6 months ago on Google
    Incredible place. The food is DELICIOUS and the service on point. Really cheap meals and an incredible atmosphere. No one should leave Marrakech without tasting the delicious plates they serve here. I sincerely recommend the Lot Of Love and de mama poulet. We were amazed with those african tastes. Highly reccommend!!!

  • 5/5 T F. 7 months ago on Google
    Honestly, every dish we had (Mama Boeuf, Mama Detox, Papa Ocean, I Shot) was superb. Staff were very hospitable and the ambiance was great with some groovy roots reggae playing on the PA - but not too loud. Prices are very reasonable too. Wish we’d found this place sooner! No hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

    I found this restaurant by chance and the music made me go inside, I had a great experience. They attended pretty well, the food was tasty and the price was fair considering the quantity and quality. The decor is also vibrant, and the place and its staff have incredible energy. Super recommendable.

    Papa ocean and mama beef - love the cute name of the dishes!! Ice tea Masion was not that toooo sweet, worth a try! Chicken wings and the main dishes were also pretty tasty!

  • 5/5 Ines C. 9 months ago on Google
    It has the most yummy food I ever had, the mystic pearl with chicken, shrimp, walnuts and banana was blasting with sweet flavor. This, with peach tea… it was wonderful. I truly recommend if you are near this establishment to try.

    Gotta love the food/drinks, and how affordable they are for their quality. Music and vibe wise 10/10. ✌🏼

  • 5/5 Dean B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very zen spot. The food tastes amazing, the service is excellent. If you are into outbif the box places, this is a must try!

  • 5/5 Rahat R. 1 year ago on Google
    I ended up dining here by chance as the greeter outside was really friendly & the food on the menu seemed reasonably priced. We ordered chicken wraps which came with fries and it was really tasty. They even packed up the leftover wrap for us to take home. The rooftop terrace gets full really fast. Overall the staff members were friendly and helpful. Good place for a quick bite.

    Fantastic food with great music playing. Really healthy and filling. Small menu which was we liked. Nice staff and overall a really nice experience. Highly recommended!

  • 4/5 Tavares W. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was awesome! The fish was light and airy and the Lots of Love sandwich was a hit with the kids. It reminded us of the island vibes from the Jamaican food joints from Chicago. We wish the flies didnt bully their way around - we could have hung out there all day listening to the great music.

  • 5/5 Anne S. 1 year ago on Google
    This place has a really nice atmosphere about it. I was just passing by & saw a friend, so joined them for a drink. Ended up having some tapas, they mixed the choices for me & added some extras. Lovely place. Will definitely go again

  • 5/5 Sizzlemann 1 year ago on Google
    We came by here a few days ago and it was packed! So we came back during Ramadan. They are open, but no one was there. We had the place to ourselves. But now I know why it was packed the first time we stopped by. The food is delicious. Reminded me of some of the Caribbean islands cooking. Portions are good size and worth the price. We will be back, especially during Ramadan so we can get in. Some of the guys speak English. Cash only.

  • 5/5 Jose C. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything from the drinks to the food was amazing. There's only a few instances when you can see the love and effort put into the food. We saw it as soon proudly brought the food to the table and we could taste it as well. Hidden Gem.

  • 5/5 Nachdi H. 2 years ago on Google
