In the middle of all the restaurants that face the ramparts of the medina, Yali stands out for its young and friendly staff. The restaurant, which looks like a cafeteria, has a pleasant terrace set against the ramparts.

In the city center, this restaurant with a Spanish atmosphere is an institution. The appetizers will whet your appetite before attacking the classic but always delicious seafood and fresh fish from the Mediterranean cuisine. The spider crabs are to die for. Excellent paellas. Nice selection of wines. The setting is pleasant in winter with a fireplace. It's a pity that the owner has increased his prices and that the overworked service sometimes leaves something to be desired in summer.

Impeccable service. To be tested.
