Restaurants cuisine du Maghreb Rhône-Alpes

From the rue d'Algérie, you go to a Moroccan medina for a total change of scenery. Once the wooden door has been crossed, Lyon seems to us far away. A vaulted cellar with exposed, oriental stones, tadelakt walls, exhilarating lights for intimate tables, silky cushions and colourful dishes, nothing missing from the eyes of the eyes, nor the delight of the taste buds with the best dishes of Moroccan bourgeois cuisine. After discovering all the details of this splendid "tribal" decoration, we wonder about the map showing shades and couscous, with a Royal at 26 €. Smiling service, presentation in a beautiful crockery and it is appreciated that chickpeas, grapes, onions or sauces are separate from special ramekins. Scented dishes, such as these well-successful keftas, and served generously in the best pieces with halal meat. A dépaysante address in the heart of Lyon.

In the typical cross-Rousse area, the Cagette offers a market kitchen, specialities from the Maghreb made with Fresh products. À la carte, hummus to herbs, vegetables, celery, carrots to orange… A real sun kitchen that will make you travel.

A trip to the heart of the Orient, to escape the time of a few hours in Morocco, with Fatah to the orders everything is possible! This country with such special flavours landed directly on your plate. The boss, of rare generosity, invites you to enjoy good couscous (lamb, chicken, merguez, méchoui, veal skewers), unforgettable tagines (lamb peppers and tomatoes, chicken onions and grapes, kefta, Moroccan fish) and typical typical dishes. Gambas à la la, Moules mussels, fish with seven spices and many more, this is an invitation to sharing and conviviality. We have spent an excellent time in this place, which lacks originality!

Les Nuits du Sud opens on the kitchen of the Maghreb, but also plunges on the side of Persia. Fifteen tables, a brief decoration, a window that opens on Europe's square and a music broadcast for air between East and West. A family kitchen to enjoy a home-made couscous or tagine. The couscous is found in fine semolina, well worked and fragrant, such as boulettes, keftas. We have chosen a tagine to lamb and aux, made on demand where flavours blend between lightly cooked and moelleux onions, garlic pods, coriander, aubergines and fresh tomatoes, it arrives in front of you. The meat is tender and generous. Dishes for vegetarians and Persian salads during the holidays. A warm and friendly welcome.

If Montana evokes for you the large spaces, you already have an idea of what this hotel can offer you. But beware, nothing to do with the United States, this Montana opens for us the doors to the oriental and North African cuisine! The large spaces, you can especially find them to the terrace on the esplanade of the Croix-Rousse, offering one of the most beautiful views of Lyon peninsula and the Fourvière hill. So, you lift up your eyes between two typical dishes. You can start with a Berber salad or grilled peppers, but the real choice begins with the variations of traditional dishes: fifteen couscous with their generous garnishes, the tajines, including a successful homemade lamb, and especially the famous pastilla, baked pancakes with cinnamon and almonds. Do not miss the special of the chef, with the particularly tasty pigeon. Oriental pastries and mint tea to conclude the meal even better when it is taken on a beautiful esplanade.

Restaurants offering food from the Maghreb are not many nearby, so let's take advantage of it! Especially as Morocco is an excellent representative! In addition to the smiles that accompany you throughout your meal, you will taste here couscous, tajines and other specialties, generously served (unlike others here, here we don't hide for example on prunes) and rich in flavours! And in addition, you will get out at a tight price. So do not hesitate, and go to Morocco…
