We stayed for 2 nights in January 2025. Very nice place. Moroccan style with a modern touch. The photos represent reality well. Very clean. The staff is really very very nice. Listening to our needs. I recommend 100%.We had dinner one evening and it was very good. The lunches are very delicious.Is located in a very safe medina. We walked in the evening without problem.We parked our vehicle near the medina and walked 7 minutes to reach the Riad. By calling ahead, the staff came to help us with the luggage.

I’m truly impressed by the outstanding service! Perfection at its best. A special thanks to the manager, Nawal, who was incredibly helpful. The food was fresh and delicious, and here’s the best part: my friend has a gluten intolerance, and they went above and beyond by baking gluten-free bread especially for him. Bravo!

Well....the food was good and the starter portions very generous. Tajine is heavy on the meat side with few sides but overall very tasty. I would rate the food a 4.5;out of 5 stars. Well done chefs! 👍🏻However the overall experience tonight was extremely disappointing:Server was very forgetful and/or slowStuff was busy with shooting iPhone videosMusic was way too loudTime between dishes way too long (even though we asked for quicker service since we didn't want to spend the entire night there with toddlers)Sum this up with a bill of around 2000 MAD for 3 adults and two toddlers. In Morocco! Outrage...

So thankful to get to stay at this place whilst visiting Rabat!The things that stand out the most are how surprising it can get to be in a random alley way and then all of a sudden you’re inside the lap of luxury.The food was beyond fantastic and we got to savor every meal.In terms of service you’ll struggle to find anyone more accommodating than Nawfal!! He made sure to create an authentic Moroccan experience from the suggestions of dishes to sample and going above all standards to make sure our stay was comfortable throughout the Riad!!You’d be doing yourself a massive favor by choosing to stay at this place when venturing to Morocco!!

Thank goodness I found this restaurant. It was the first good restaurant I've been to in Rabat for days.It was busy with one waiter doing a great job. The space was comfortable and clean. A cockatiel kept everyone entertained with his singing through the music.I have the chicken with olives and it was amazing - just what I had been looking for. Proper rich base and soft juicy meat. The bread served was fresh and really good too.I ordered a virgin mojito which was sprite on ice with lemon and mint which made me laugh. Nevertheless, it was great.I can't think of anything bad to say about the place except the light could have been a bit more chilled.If you are looking for good Moroccan food, please go here at least once when you are in Rabat. Everywhere else I've tried so far has been bad.
