Be sure to visit during your visit to Fes! The food is cooked by a mother and daughter in law pair. Karina, the daughter in law spoke English very well and welcomed us and introduced us to the menu. The Pastilla was delicious and Karina's specialty. We also ordered steamed lamb, which was good...it was a plain piece of lamb,... More

I visited the family-run Restaurant Dar Hatim while on a group tour, and we had a set meal - a wide range of Moroccan vegetarian starters (the aubergine was particularly good) followed by pastilla ('chicken pie') - but what made the evening especially memorable was being shown around the family home upstairs by the hospitable wife/head chef after we had...

To sum it up - good food, friendly owners, but too expensive. Sold as an experience where you can join in a family setting for dinner. However, this is just another restaurant. Advertising in the neighbour hood, dinning rooms for the guests (a new room for another approx. 20-30 people is being built) and a menu on the table indicate... More

We went there on the evening. The menu is simple: 4 mains (I went for the seasonal steamed lamb served with cousin cousin) introduced by loads of cooked vegetables and fresh fruit for dessert. It's a family run place and the atmosphere is warm and nice.

A must if you enjoy a home cooked Moroccan experience. Owner picked us up at our hotel and walked us to his home where we were greeted by his wife. Food is cooked by his mother and wife and was wonderful. After dinner he showed us his living quarters upstairs. Really unique and a memorable way to experience Fes.

Visited this restaurant as part of a packaged tour and so glad that we did! Fantastic example of Moroccan home cooking I came across on my two week trip. I am still dreaming of the fried eggplant that was so melt in the mouth. It is worth the trip here just for that. The Moroccan salad was also the best... More

This is one of the best Moroccan meal we had during our 10 days trip. Homemade dishes are simply delicious! The restaurant is nicely decorated, with great service. It offers staff to walk us back to our Riad after dinner too.

Wow - we visited this restaurant recently (Mar 2013) - and OMG the food is amazing. The restaurant is a hidden gem - and you have to know your way around the Medina to find it. the owner of the restaurant - and her home cooking made this. Her Chicken Pastille is a must try. We received the Moroccan salad... More

We got a warm family welcome to this 4 year old restaurant in the 15th century building that the husband was born in. The place is beautifully decorated in ornate Moroccan style. Our guide had warned us about restaurants with overpriced 3 course menus, so we enjoyed telling him the next day about Dar Hatim's quite reasonable 150 to 200... More
