An absolute find! We loved this place.The food was incredible. Easily the best meal we had in Marrakesh and Abdula was a great host and one man band doing it all. Great rooftop. Incredible food. Gave family home style - which I think is the ultimate when travelling and wanting and authentic experience.

THIS BEST!!!! you have to go here if you’re in Marrakesh. Food is absolutely delicious. You can easily miss the entrance (attached a photo) due to the small staircase.I promise you, the food here is absolutely amazing. The Tangia is the best I’ve ever eaten.The owner/chef is so nice and friendly.Avoid the large, overpriced restaurants. GO HERE!!

If I could give more stars I would!You might pass this place by, as the sign is small and the entrance difficult to spot, but it is a hidden gem!The owner is generally the only one working, but the service is still outstanding and you can tell by the way he talks that he cares and loves what he does.The food was amazing, everything was cooked to perfection, and the portions were generous. He made accommodations for my vegetarian friends although he offers vegetarian options as well.We missed sunset, but the terrace is peaceful and pleasant at any time.We had an amazing experience and this is by far my favorite restaurant in Marrakech. I will be highly, HIGHLY, recommending this place to everyone I meet.

This was the best food we had in Marrakech! The lamb was so tender and the chicken pakora was 10/10.Thank you to Abdula for the great service and making us feel at home.Service is not super fast so do not expect a quick meal - but I promise it is worth the wait.Only feedback I have is it would have been nice to have some Moroccan music playing in the background as it was very quiet.

What a place! Such a nice hidden gem in the middle of all the hustle and bustle from the medina. A quiet, beautiful rooftop with an excellent host/chef. He’ll teach you a thing or two about the history of the place and then wows you with the explosion of flavours. He’s an absolute gentleman and great cook. Please make sure to visit, you will not regret it.

The food was outstanding. The best dinner we have had…the saffron chicken was amazing! Beautiful views from the terrace and it was a pleasure to speak with the chef to hear his stories. Felt more like dinner guests, rather than clients.

Chef Abdullah is a great host and his food is incredible. You will be spoilt for choice here and will not be disappointed with the tasty spread. The rooftop has a great view too and it is very comfortable. We highly recommend it.

The owner was very welcoming and friendly. The food was excellent we enjoyed tapas, marrakech tangia as well as local sweets and fruits. The atmosphere was very pleasant with pretty rooftop views where one can watch people trickle through the Medina below. Would highly recommend for a peaceful and authentic Moroccan dinner.
