Restaurants Near and Middle East cuisine Essaouira

Situated on a small square on the edge of the Mellah, this tiny establishment really deserves encouragement. The dishes on offer are delicious, the welcome superb and the value for money excellent. Depending on your tastes, you can have lunch in a pretty little room or on the sunny micro-terrace. Every day, the menu features a vegetarian platter, grilled meats with fresh salads, 2 daily specials and an array of desserts. Whatever your choice, the dish will be well presented, hearty and always subtly spiced.

More than a restaurant, it's a cultural space with a hybrid concept, which has taken up residence in a riad in the heart of the medina. Different cultures are at the heart of the discussions, as well as the dishes: here, we've deliberately left the door open to Jewish, Moroccan and Lebanese inspiration, thanks to chef Saïd Belghiti. Every weekend, the premises come alive with a film screening followed by a discussion with the public, providing an opportunity for dialogue, learning and great encounters under the banner of tolerance.
