Restaurant Tunisia - The 10 best restaurants Tunisia in 2024

Practical information : Eating out Tunisia

Timetable

Restaurants generally open from 12pm to 3pm and from 7pm to 11pm-midnight. Some serve all day long, others only in the evening. They are generally open every day. Note that during the month of Ramadan (lunar calendar), all restaurants will be closed for lunch, and some for both lunch and dinner. It's not uncommon for restaurateurs to take advantage of this period to carry out renovations.

Budget & Tips

Price ranges really vary from one place to another in Tunisia, but also according to the type of restaurant. You'll easily find a complete meal for around €10. You'll also find a few unpretentious local addresses where you can grab a bite to eat for just a few dinars. In tourist areas, prices can sometimes soar without the quality being up to scratch. Here are some indicative prices: for a meal, count on around 60 DT to 100 DT for a meal in a listed restaurant (excluding wine), 15 to 25 DT in restaurants serving standard Tunisian cuisine, 3 to 8 DT for a snack. Coffee: 1 or 2 DT in a popular café; between 2 and 5 DT in a more chic café. Pastries: around 3 DT.

What costs extra

Service is often smiling, so leave a small tip... which Tunisians always do! The tip is generally the equivalent of 10% of the bill.

To be avoided

If possible, we prefer to eat with the right hand. Nobody's going to tell you this, but you should know that the left hand is associated with impure acts.

Kids

Children are accepted (and appreciated) everywhere in Tunisia, especially in restaurants, which are all, without exception, "kid-friendly"! Some restaurants offer children's menus.

Smokers

It is customary to smoke in restaurants, unless there is an explicit request not to smoke (which is quite rare).

Tourist traps

As in all tourist areas of the world, some of the most popular sites for travelers hide a few unpleasant surprises. Beware of touts near restaurants, and trust your senses and the people already seated in the restaurant!
