Restaurant

😠 If you're having trouble going to the toilet, this is the perfect place to get diarrhea within the hour! It's cheap food but very bad quality, not at all fresh or a good portion. While the servers were nice, they forgot a lot of items repeatedly. People often mention nice, served, menu, service,

    Do your self a favour --- AVOID, keep walking. If I could give -1..... most questionable location to eat so far. Food quality - terrible Service -even worse (I think someone hit the wacky tabacco), they forgot we were there!! Drink - none! Don't know they ran out of everything except mint tea. Hygiene -deadly - whole place dirty, kitchen which I looked into at end is horrific. We left over half the food as it just tasted odd....Following day both myself and wife have upset stomach and not feeling well.

    It was so delicious! You can get a small menue for about 60dh where you can choose from some dishes. For 95dh you can get a bigger menue with 4 servings and choose from all dishes fron the menue. I had a very good soup, a pastadilla and a orange salad. The waiter was intent, friendly and spoke with us in german. He also recomend us some lovely citys for a day trip in Morocco. I will go there again!

    Very disappointed. The food we got served was not as described in the menu, which would have been fine if we would have been told before it got served. In which case we would have chosen something else. The service was a bit inattentive and slow in general and we waited a while for our order. The taste in general was okay but nothing special. The minimum I would have expected was an apology or a discount, as items of the dishes (2) were missing (on both). I'm a chef myself and have been working in the industry for a few decades in different positions and know that mistakes happen, but try at least to learn from them and treat your guests with respect.

    We went for a quick snack, and for that this restaurant is perfect. The food was perfect for a quick stop, but for a sit down meal there are far more delicious places. The interior was nicely decorated though.

    Great food, one of the best restaurants I went to in Marrakesh. The 60 dirham set menu is very reasonable, you can choose between multiple options

    Very nice terasse, quite and well decorated. We were very satisfied for the quality of the food, hummus was great and they offered tea and olives. Good service

    We stopped for a coffee and cakes because a donkey was holding up traffic and we were choking on moped exhaust. Sadly it didn't get better from there, although I do understand that it takes a while to warm up a coffee machine, some explanation in the half hour we waited (given we were the only customers) would have been appreciated.

    Horrible experience. We were served a plate of food which we started to eat and then was taken away for another table despite the fact we had already partially eaten. The houmous was the worst I have ever had served. It was spoiled and served with a half of a white tortilla. The napkins were dirty. We were never asked about water or served drink. Overall the worst experience in Morocco.

    Food: falafels were nice. Fries: very pale, felt half raw, please fry longer. My friends had meat and would not recommend. Service: very friendly, relatively fast Atmosphere: terrace was nice

    Adi was a lovely waiter. Very friendly and accommodating. We only had coffee and morrocon sweets but it was the perfect peaceful spot. The morrocon treats were lovely and fun to try as per his reccomendation. A lovely man!

    I ordered a salad with goat cheese and nuts and got one with banana and pomegranate - so something completely different. When complaining the excuse was that the ingredients in the menu are only meant as decoration. Seriously? The decoration wasn't even there 😂 On top the salad was rather small and far too overpriced with 60 MAD. Would not recommend this place.

    The falafel tasted so off that I broke one in half for a swift visual inspection. As soon as the soggy falafel broke in two, the musty smell of bad tap water filled my nose, quickly evaporating my appetite. After I asked the waiter why my 'mixed juice' tasted solely of banana, he forced me into performing a 'fist-bump' with him - wholly against my will - and swore the milky yellow drink in front of me contained more than just banana. Sadly, the staff member that asked if we had liked the food walked out of sight before the word 'no' could reached her.

    Excellent food, best place in marrakech

    Great food, affordable lunch prices!

  • 4/5 Vic L. 4 years ago on Google
    Good food and fair price for the amount of it. Especially the Hummus was great, a nice change from the Moroccan salad which is the standard. even though the terrace sounds and is nice, sit in the front outside where you can watch the rumble of the Medina.

  • 5/5 Heike S. 4 years ago on Google
    Loved the food and the staff at this restaurant. Out of about 20 places we tried, this was my favorite one. They got two restaurants that are right next to one another.

    Very nice kefta sandwich, it was perfect for a fast stop for lunch! The sandwich only 30 DH but anyhow came with a bit of chips and some salad. Fast and friendly service. The only con is that it can get a bit hot on the terrace and there is only one fan.

    Lovely experience..great service by Meriam...value for money and a cozy place. All their dishes are a must try. The daily menu options of 60 and 95 are convenient for those who are confused what to choose. Tried this place twice and wish had more time to come again.

    The best restaurant I found in 10 days in Marocco, incredibly good and with a really cute rooftop terrace.

    Leider keine gute Erfahrung. Die tajine war quasi ungewürzt und der Service war langsam, hat die Bestellung durcheinander gebracht und die Rechnung falsch aufsummiert. Wenn man Mineralwasser bestellt bekommt man Leitungswasser in Plastikflaschen.

  • 1/5 Wiktoria M. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst restaurant I have visit in Marakesh. Those people have no idea what they do. Photos showed on the menu have nothing to do with reality. Every meal was not served correct according to whats written om the menu. My friend received her food after 10min and I waited for more than an hour. What a dramatically bad place to have a meal 😠

    We went there today! Good really sucks!! Rice was served with chicken grill.. it was not eatable… rice was at least 2/3 days old…Harira same quality.. no teste. Pastilla same old stuff.. with no teste. Worst food ever tried in Morocco. Not adviced. Btw There is a another « la Porte de Marrakech » same decoration a bit far… It made me suspicious if it’s a copycat

    Amazing staff, delicious tajine and couscous. My favorite is the lemon chicken.

  • 2/5 Marina L. 7 months ago on Google
    We did not enjoy the restaurant. The service was horrible: the water was tab water, we did not get what we ordered and got charged too much. The atmosphere was nice, we liked the terrace. The food was ok.

    DON'T get fooled by the (old) pictures in the gallery. avoid going here! the falafel was not even mediocre, fries were cold, the baba ganoush was bland and hummus taste was very 'special'. the goat cheese pastilla didn't even contain goat cheese. at least the crepe was good. by far the worst experience I had in Morocco food-wise.

  • 2/5 Daan S. 1 year ago on Google
    The menu was quite nice, however big portions are too expensive for what you get. It wasn’t very fresh either. Staff forgot our order so we had to ask for a lot of our drinks. Bits

    Nice rooftop, poor food and appauling service

  • 1/5 Angeline C. 5 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Genuinely think the pastilla they served was thrown out by a street vendor reheated until burnt and then covered in sugar and cinnamon to hide the fact. When we complained; the waiter busy chatting up a tourist the entire time said something incoherent about it being the chefs problem, then tried to guilt trip us into being responsible for his bad day. If only we had read the reviews before we went 😥
