Other tables worth knowing

Objectively, Marrakech has other safe bets: Al Fassia (Guéliz), a women-run institution since 1987, famous for its pastilla and mechoui; Nomad, modern Moroccan cuisine on the Medina rooftops; Le Jardin, a green haven in the souks; and the fine-dining tables of the grand palaces. Always check opening times when booking.

We'll book for you. Our concierge helps you secure a table at the best addresses and arrange your transfers from HaltaKech.
