    Superb ambience. Food was OK. Service was OK. The servers weren’t too good at understanding what we wanted. At the end, they seemed super hesitant for me to use my credit card, even though they had a machine. There was live music, Moroccan style, which is different from what you’d expect. Mostly drum beats and the singer. This place is good for a fancy or romantic night out but I think if you’re looking for good food, go to a more local spot.

    NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH RESTAURANT DAR MARJANA. This is the sister restaurant to the Restaurant Dar Marjana which is in the same building. Rooftop terrace with a relaxed atmosphere and good food and drink (it shares its kitchen with the swanky restaurant below). Service was attentive and excellent. Great to dine al fresco.

    Lovely restaurant with a great roof terrace with western inspired food. The lamb shank with lentils was delicious. So was the caramel dessert.

    My sons and I wanted something light and while we were walking the gentleman in front beckoned us to come see the restaurant! We sat on the terrace and it was lovely in the evening! The indoor area looked lovely as well! I wanted to try the couscous as I’d never had to before! It was delicious! My son got the chicken salad! They brought out potato croquets for appetizer and they were the best is ever had! Highly recommend this place during your Moroccan adventure!

    Really enjoyable evening out. Booked through the TUi hotel. Entertainment was enjoyable and staff were a good laugh. Lovely selection of food. Would recommend more than 2 of you as there is a lot to eat. There was 4 of us and it was more than enough.

    Good food, a chill out terrace to relax. Tourists have alcoholic beverages. Casablanca beer is very soft and tasty. The entrance is close to Bab Doukala, a door to historical neighborhood Marrakech.

    A fantastic evening out on an organised Taste of Morocco evening. Great food and entertainment- worth doing for sure. We were here around 3 hours and had approx 5 courses of very good locally sourced and prepared moroccan fare. Well catered for vegetarian-wife. Beautiful surroundings and the staff were all fantastic. Felt VERY special. The only minor negative was thay upon arrival and being allowed to choose where to sit, there was a bit of a lull for 20 minutes where we weren't really sure what the agenda was. Just an explanation that food service would commence in 20 minutes would have settled us in immediately. All in all, a 5***** evening!

    Kept coming back here as the staff and ambience were so lovely. We had drinks on the roof terrace most nights and dinner was delicious. Excellent service and reasonably priced.

    This place is pretty special. I went as part of a “taste of Morocco” experience and the entertainment, service and food was by far the best I had during my time in Marrakesh. My favourite experience in Morocco to date still!

    Extremely overpriced. Also the food we had was nothing special, below average comapred to the rest of restaurants we have been in Marrakesh. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice but clearly a tourist trap place.

    We had an amazing experience at this restaurant. Food was delicious (they also have a vegetarian menu), staff was friendly and helpful and the vibe it’s just it! I would rate this night a 10 out of 10, one of the best restaurants I’ve tried in Marrakech

    Atmosphere is GORGEOUS with a real beautiful palm in the back of the restaurant. The lamb was great!! The food comes out as a 3 course meal and each course was good and tasty! They also put on a nice show! Tanbert!

  • 5/5 Marina G. 1 year ago on Google
    We stumbled upon this place as it is close to our riad. We are so happy we went in. Amazing vibe, the main restaurant downstairs was beautiful and had a belly dancing show. We went to the roof top terrace and had amazing food and drinks while listening to a fantastic singer/guitar player Tarek. (Who even got me up to sing lol) This place is a gem. Fantastic service, wonderful vibe, great food, and great drinks. I highly recommend it.

  • 5/5 Katherine D. 6 months ago on Google
    Really nice food and drinks! Lovely rooftop vibe, we payed DH 390 for 2 people. Slightly limited menu but still nice

  • 5/5 Shantanu C. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely atmosphere, and great food. Quite a lot actually. Bit pricey but you pay probably once a lifetime to enjoy the Moroccon culture. We booked via TUI and they charged £250 for 3 adults and 1 child. With limited wine.

  • 3/5 Amber L. 4 months ago on Google
    Lovely place with decent food but nothing out of the ordinary. The service was nice but not as great as the place. I expected so much more from such a carefully decorated and exquisite environment. I wanted to love it. But it was just ok. I would still go back to enjoy the ambiance. I’m fact I did go back with the intention of ordering a bottle of wine and a few appetizers at the small pre-dinner tables but was told tables were only for the full 3 course dinners. Such a pity as I would have happily spent on wine and appetizers the same amount.

  • 4/5 Ed S. 5 months ago on Google
    Dined on the roof terrace not the ground floor restaurant. Lovely terrace experience. Beautifully decorated and atmospheric. Service very friendly. Food was fine but nothing special - would have been nice to have more traditional Moroccan dishes on the menu. MAD 750 for two including alcohol.

    Absolutely gorgeous, I o ly stayed for a drink but this would be the perfect date night spot

  • 5/5 Ruth w. 1 year ago on Google
    A great night. Entertaining, food in huge supply. Do not eat before you go!

  • 1/5 Réda Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Positive: Food is average Negative: Service was desperately lacking. People coming after us and ordering the same food as us got served first. An hour and half to get served our main course. Also, it can't be stressed enough how Nigerian rap music doesn't fit the traditional morrocan decor of the restaurant. Finally, dirt can be spotted on less obvious area, like outlet frames All in all a very easily avoidable place.

  • 1/5 Naresh Kirpalani (. 1 year ago on Google
    Great ambiance; food left a lot to be desired (lamb shank was salty; chicken was dry). Also in the evening they only do set menu's - they did accomdate us and provide A La carte menu but then thats why we probably ended up with bad food and lousy service at the table. A wasted evening.

  • 3/5 Daniel D. 1 year ago on Google
    OK. The venue is really nice and the staff are great. The food was just ok. It's very clearly a tourist trap but one that seems quite nice on the surface. Very obviously inflated prices. It's a safe bet if you want to just pay for the comfort. They also sell alcohol.

  • 5/5 Amanda C. 6 years ago on Google
    Wow! What an experience! The restaurant has a fixed menu with three options. It may seem expensive at first, but the food was outstanding, included wine, water, tea... I am vegan and had the vegetarian option. I left so full and satisfied. The service is superb and there is live music, dancing and belly dancing. One of the highlights of our trip. Book a reservation and be prepared for luxury

    Not bad, but expensive prices

  • 4/5 Cecilia C. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice place. We ate on the rooftop terrace which was a bit chilly but they have heaters. Its a bit too dark. We couldn’t even read the menu. We had to use the flashlight from our phones. We also couldn’t see what we were eating. They need to add more light. Food was delicious. Service was a bit slow.
