Le guide définitif des meilleurs restaurants de Marrakech — salles à manger privées, restaurants de palais, cuisine marocaine sur les toits et les tables que seul un concierge peut réserver.
Dining in Marrakech: The Landscape
Marrakech has become one of the great food cities of the world. Its restaurant scene combines the depth of Moroccan culinary tradition — bastilla, tangia, pastilla au pigeon, mechoui — with the international influence that comes from a city that attracts artists, designers and executives from across the globe.
The challenge is not finding a restaurant. It is finding the right table, at the right time, in the right room.
The Restaurants We Book
La Grande Table Marocaine at Royal Mansour: Morocco's most formal restaurant — and possibly its finest. Executive chef Mohamed Boussetta's menu is a study in fassi haute cuisine. Service by uniformed staff trained in France. Chandelier-lit dining room hand-crafted by Royal Mansour artisans. Reservations for non-hotel guests are possible, but require advance relationship.
Le Marocain at La Mamounia: The Mamounia's flagship Moroccan dining room, set in an Art Deco room opening onto the famous gardens. Live music most evenings. The bastilla is the best in the city.
Dar Moha: Mohamed Fedal's pioneering restaurant in a restored 1930s riad. The menu reinvents Moroccan cuisine — Nouvelle fassi cooking that remains authentic. Lunch by the pool, dinner in the courtyard.
Le Jardin: Medina garden restaurant — a concept that shouldn't work in a historic medina but does, entirely. Open-air under a century-old fig tree canopy.
Al Fassia: The finest traditional restaurant run entirely by Moroccan women. Lamb mechoui, chicken with preserved lemon, couscous on Fridays. No tourists-menu compromises.
Nomad: The best rooftop in the medina, above the spice souk, with Atlas Mountain views. Contemporary Moroccan small plates, natural wines, excellent service.
What a Concierge Changes
Last-minute tables at Dar Moha and La Grande Table Marocaine are essentially impossible without a contact. A private dining room for six at a closed riad restaurant. The chef's table experience where you watch the kitchen in action. A tasting menu designed specifically for your dietary requirements and preferences.
We make the call you cannot. Contact us 48 hours before your dinner date.
