“All dishes made with same ingredients, no fresh vegetables”
Review of Dar El Medina

Dar El Medina
Ranked #57 of 385 Restaurants in Trapani
Cuisines: Mediterranean, Tunisian
Description: Local sober and elegant, contemporary design, with citations of Arabic style cuisine that links the two shores of the Mediterranean: the Tunisian and Sicilian. The comfort of the room, the quality of the proposed dishes, the courtesy and professionalism of the staff guarantee an excellent quality / price ratio. Not to be confused with the pizza / kebab "El Medina".

Maybe they just had a bad night when we ate there, because I really don't get all these 5* reviews as our visit was quite disappointing. The couscous with vegetables, rise with chicken and almonds, and soup all had pretty much the same ingredients, with the only vegetables being defrozen peas and carrots. One of the salads consisted of lettuce with bread and tasteless green beans from a jar. Service was good, friendly waitress.

We did not want to spend to much cash on dinner, therefore after some searching identified this place to be not on the pricey side.
All dishes are inspired by the Arab kitchen. There is a variety of couscous options with fish and vegetables, what seems to be the most recommended option of you are visiting Trapani. Prices were confirmed. Mains go for around 7-10 eur depending on the dish.
To summarize, one could not go wrong by choosing this location. It certainly offers good food, however one should not expect any thrills.

This restaurant is on the north side of the city block that houses the pizza shop of the same name. Its food is inexpensive and a nice assortment of Tunisian dishes. We had 5 types of appetizers followed by spiced stewed veal and saucy mutton in flatbread, and a salad of tomato, cucumber. parsley and olives. The restaurant is a modern layout, and the service is very good.
