Very kind service staff and the space was beautiful! I will say while the food was tasty we did have better Morrococan food in many other spots BUT you’re paying for the beautiful fine dining atmosphere and service. Service started super slow and then picked up. Portions are small so you can try more. We loved the fried sambusa platter to start. The camel meatballs are a gimmick, not spectacular but it provides a great story to tell friends. On the gamey side. The lamb tagine was a standout, yum!! So tender and flavorful. The tarte atatin was underwhelming. No alcohol is served here but there are tasty mocktails. Tables and chairs are so low so tall diners like us, heads up! Hidden beyond the chaos in the center of the Medina, very mysterious:) The food was excellent — full of flavor and very well prepared. The service was a bit slow; even with a reservation, we had to wait longer than expected. That said, the space is beautiful and very well decorated, making for a lovely dining atmosphere. Overall, still a very enjoyable experience! Very happy to have been able to enjoy high-quality traditional dishes It’s great to find a place like this, as many restaurants in the Medina are tourist traps The food is truly traditional, without strange fusions with other cuisines. Definitely a must-visit in Marrakech. The staff are very kind and polite, and the place itself is beautiful

I was quite disappointed. The food was very average, the prices were high, and the waiting time was extremely long even though the restaurant wasn’t busy. Definitely not worth it.

The food is good as the atmosphere, but it’s so overpriced for what it is. The portions are small. We went out of the restaurant and immediately I found a good restaurant where the same dish was bigger and costed 13 euros less.
