    I had the chicken tajine with lemon and it was awesome. Very nice place in fact with good service and located in the Medina. I really enjoyed and my friends did too. Probably I spent around $15 dollars including a glass of wine. It was very reasonable

    The food is delicious!!! And everything is very clean! They make the tagine with vegetables extra with dried fruits for vegetarian/ vegan people or if you ask. They are very flexible, excellent service! They also have an incredible good almond and datel milk shake! Authentic moroccan food with high quality! :-) :-) :-)

    The best tajine i ate in morroco so far! Such a lovely placed. With a little queue - feels like the hyped place of essaouira. But its totally worth it!

    This was an amazing find on TripAdvisor. The restaurant opens at 7pm and make sure you’re there before that! It’s a very cozy place with the perfect ambience. We had the 3-course menu of DH75 for the vegetarian and DH95 for the meat. The lentil soup and eggplant salad were all fantastic. I had Lamb Tagine with dried fruits and my partner had Vegetarian Tagine. They were really tasty and the lamb was tender. We finished the meal with a homemade chocolate cake and it was HEAVEN! Service was flawless! The people running this shop are doing the right thing! We just love this place!

    One word: lovely! We had the menu, everything was delicious and we came out rolling!! The starters, especially the salade d’aubergines (Zaalouk) & the Harira (soupe marocaine) were great we had to refrain ourselves on the bread and dips because of the couscous coming! Veggies were perfect and so tasty. Charming waitresses, very nice and original set up with tables arranged so that you’re facing the neighbors, we engaged in conversations while petting the cute cats (you don’t have to if you don’t want to). Choukran! We will be back :)

    I've eaten a lot of vegetable tagines up, down, and across Morocco and this one was the best I've had by a significant margin. Ask for it with the fruit (plums, apricots, raisins and onions) and treat yourself to an almond and date milkshake. Absolutely delicious!

    Authentic and cozy place, we were welcomed warmly. The food was delicious! We ordered the Harira soup, tajin with chicken and lemon with vegetables, and the cuscus with lamb and vegetables, and a cake for a dessert. Highly recommend!

    The best restaurant I've tried in Essouira! They sent us lamb tagine instead of lamb couscous as ordered, I felt bad to send it back and it's lamb anyway but they apologized and sent us an additional couscous to eat with the tagine. Everything was so tasty and cooked to perfection! Not to mention how kind and welcoming the lady was

    So cozy Restaurant! Small but not bothering being close to other customers and of course with the company of the cats! The food was very good: tajines, harira soup, samosas, dessert... We took everythinf because it was our last night, and this was worth it! The women do such a nice work. Very good location next to the main street. Top!

    This is our fave spot when in Saouira. Pastilla, beef and prunes...really anything here is terrific. Love the gnaoua music in the evening too. Show up early if you want a seat inside. It fills up fast.

    Generous portions, delicious food, amazing prices… can really recommend!

    The restaurant is ran by women. The staff is very friendly and the food tastes well. The cats roam free and are very docile. The squid tasted great!

    I spent the evening dining at Restaurant Adwak where a friendly local cat decided to squat between my dinner neighbours and me. I decided to get their special Fish Tajine, which was delicious!

    In a quaint alleyway this place is everything great about Morocco. Especially essouira- from the mint tea to the Lamb Tagine to the giggles shared with the owner due to my husbands fear of cats. A beautiful place with great prices, great food and great service ! I wish I stayed longer to try everything on the menu - but will definitely be returning back next time I am in town.

  • 5/5 Lilian 1 year ago on Google
    Very!!! Good food 😃😃 We had traditional lamb and chicken couscous. It was more then enough and very tasteful! Must visit when in Essaouira! Price quality is perfect.

  • 5/5 Niki M. 1 year ago on Google
    A wonderful little find tucked away in a narrow street. The tajine here was excellent! The ambience too was wonderful. We had the chicken and the marinated fish tajine which were both delicious. Highly recommended! The service too was warm and friendly.

    Nice lunch in a cozy ambience. Simple maroccan food at a reasonable price.

  • 5/5 Syna S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great tasty meals. The formula lunch was amazing and a great deal. The tagine and fish dishes tried were really good. The setting is nice and authetic and the staff are very polite and hospitable. This was a good decision after walking around the entire medina.

    Wonderful food and excellent service. Great location in the Medina and a comfortable setting. And wow...the value for such amazing food! We had the Menu of the Day, both the vegetarian options. So good. The Veggie tagine, a veggie couscous, two very yummy desserts and bottled sparkling water. All for 201 dirhams!!! We were in Morocco for two weeks and this place was in the top two.

    This restaurant was recommended to us by our Riad and it was really good. The service was like most Morrocan restaurant but what really stood out was how tasty the food was. We had chicken tajine and couscous to share between two people and both were delicious and more than enough. The chocolate cake as dessert was one of the best I've had in a long time.

    One of the best Tagine and Couscous I never taste. Friendly and peaceful place. I recommend with pleasure
