    A cool oasis in the heat of Marrakech

    After a troublesome night arrival, this place, with a water spray cooled terrace was the perfect escape from the heat and bustle of the small and crowded streets.

    Awesome terrace!

    We came here twice during our vacation. The food was good and the terrace overlooking the souk was awesome. Nice pasta. Good selection with not just Moroccan food. Decent prices. Slow service, but we enjoyed that too.

    Nice place to go and eat

    Went there last week, and I was not very hungry, so decided to get a starter with sardines. It was really lovely! Nice staff and very helpfull. Around the corner from our riad, it was nice to find this restaurant.

    Best lamb tagine

    Ate here as a group of 4 last night and I enjoyed the best lamb tagine of our holiday so far. The lamb was boneless, generous portion and absolutely delicious. All of our party highly enjoyed their dishes. Atmosphere was great and service excellent
