The other reviews are right in terms of great room & music but the food is just ok - the environment makes this place special. Although beautiful, it is very 'done' in terms of obviously the work of an interior designer. For environment I'd recommend elizir where you get an amazing interior & real passion. We definitely enjoyed going here... more

We also stumbled across this amazing establishment on our first night in Essaouira and couldn't keep away! We ate our way through the fantastic menu, including several fantastic lunches on the incredible roof terrace. The decor is world-class and perfect for forgetting about the outside world. The staff were so refreshingly on the ball and made us feel completely at... more

The food, the decor and the service is impeccable. We came across this restaurant on our first night in Essaouira and ended up eating their most nights during our six night stay. The food is delicious, the duck is the best we've ever tasted and the beef (cooked to your taste) and lobster soup are fantastic too. The restaurant manager,... more

If you're a little tired of the traditional tagine, you should try this restaurant. The chef can cook you allmost anything : salades, fish, pasta's and meat and wonderfull desserts. We tried several dishes and they were all excellent. Nice settings and an arab/lounge music, what more do you need to have a nice quiet dinner? Recommended! more

The service and food was so great that we went back the second night to try out the full menu. We weren't disappointed! The chef and owner both came and spoke to... more

We stumbled on to this restaurant while wandering the medina and were enticed in by the tempting desserts on the menu outside, unaware as we walked through the alley up to the entrance what delights lay in store for us inside. We were greeted by the friendly waiters and friendly owner Farid, who treated us with such affection that we... more
