Excellent rooftop dining experience. I recommend a reservation just to make sure you get a table where you want to sit. The views are very good. Nice breeze and shade. The 3 breads is a nice starter as well as the 5 juice tastings. My lamb chops were solids as we're my partners prawns. Dessert was excellent with 2 ice creams scoops with unique flavors as well as date cake with vanilla ice cream. Excellent experience! We booked this restaurant specifically to catch the sunset, and it was definitely worth it. It’s one of the few places with proper rooftop access and great views over the city, just make sure to book early or you might end up sitting under the strong afternoon sun before the sunset starts. The food was decent overall. The sardine tarts were delicious and well-seasoned, the grilled lamb chops and chicken thigh tagine were hearty and flavourful, and the Agadir calamari was the standout dish, tender and paired with a beautiful tomato-based sauce that tied everything together. A great place to unwind and enjoy the sunset over dinner, definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. Staff seemed friendly and service was quick. The big selling point is the view over the local Souk below and the Marrakesh skyline which is probably one of the best in the city. From here you can see the city passing you by as you watch the sunset in the distance, so for the vibe and atmosphere it is a great place to visit. However both the food and the drinks let this place down, they are overpriced even when taking the view into consideration. The food I would say is just about edible at a push and the drinks are ok at best. When you factor in the location there is so much better food and drink establishments a stones through from this place. It’s really down to the individual if they feel it’s worth the sacrifice of poor quality food and drink for a world class view.

We came back for a second time after our trip in November last year. The food was again perfect: a delicious blend of Moroccan flavours with a modern twist. The rooftop views and the terrace decor are stunning too. We remembered Mariam from our last visit, she was very professional and friendly and both her and Tariq made us feel very welcome and the kids comfortable for their first visit. We highly recommend!

Average food, not the freshest, unfortunately the rocket leaves served with the fritters were slimy and old so we didn’t eat them. But overall flavours were good. Nice atmosphere and views. Not really any vegetarian options for mains, a few for entrees though.
