Dar Chef

Top top top!!
Quality of the food and quantity is really good - probably the best that we had here in Marrakech.
Place is super clean, service is really good and nice, a lot of details and Naji is a great host, kind and helpful!
Thanks for everything, will come back for sure!

Price absolutely correct!

Amazing traditional food and even better service!

We tried the tagine here and it was delicious. Was not a fan of the olives themselves but the chicken was cooked to perfection and had no skin on.

The soup lacked some salt but nevertheless super delicious!

For dessert we had the flan, which was great, but also big :) it comes as 3 pieces, so maybe good for sharing?

This place is a hidden gem. We were drawn in by the simple sign and when we entered it was an incredible environment that didn’t feel touristy. The prices were incredible and got a great deal on an appetizer, main, and tea with bread and olives. Naji was a fantastic server and made us feel like home.

Nice cozy family restaurant! It is a bit hard to find, need to look very closely. The staff is friendly and helpful even though she can’t speak much English or Arabic. The soup is amazing. Very warming and reasonably priced. The lamb and prune tagine is nice as well though a bit expensive. Overall the food is great!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this fantastic restaurant, and I must say that the entire experience exceeded my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere. The ambiance was perfect, with just the right lighting and a comfortable, cozy layout that set the stage for a memorable meal. Amazing food 🥘 thanks to Naji the waiter who made our night so special.

Very delicious comfort food. The Moroccan salad is a good appetizer and all the tagine are delicious esp. the mrouzia (?) which is a tender well marbled beef

This was the first meal we had upon touching down in Marrakech and still remains the best Moroccan food we have eaten by far. We were greeted by Naji as we arrived to the restaurant who provided excellent service with food recommendations. We had the Harira soup and chicken tajine which was good, and the beef mrouzia and mint tea which was phenomenal (highly recommend)! We will definitely be back for more when we are back in Marrakech!

We wouldn't have been able to find Dar Chef without the help of Google Maps. We were tired and after walking past yet another pricey or packed restaurant, we didn't want to walk anymore. Luckily we happened across Dar Chef and the very charismatic and humble Adi. Tucked away like many of the amazing riads of Marrakech, the decor was simple but homely and the food...to die for. It was our last night so we weren't expecting much but Adi's cuisine left us extremely full and totally satisfied. In fact it made our last night extra special and memorable. It would have been nice to have a glass of wine with our meal but we're in Marrakech so alcohol isn't widely consumed.
We started off with a delightful Harira lentil soup, followed by a beef and vegetable Tagine and a seafood pastilla (plus an omelette for good measure - I could have done without the omelette but what can I say, I was hun-gry!)
What can I say? Actively seek out this restaurant that has very good ratings on Trip Advisor and help Adi raise his profile on Google restaurant reviews. You won't be disappointed and if he asks who sent you, tell him Teddy!

We stopped at Dar Chef for lunch on our first day in Marrakesh and were absolutely delighted! I had the beef and vegetables tajine and it was the best I've tried during my stay in Morocco. The beef was really tasty!

The service was very friendly and the decor is nice. Definitely recommended!

Fantastic experience in this restaurant, starting with wonderful starters, so crispy and tasty. Than we had Pastilla with chicken and Tajine with beef and prunes: those were the best in our stay in Marrakesh.
The Staff was very friendly, special thanks to the new guy who served us.
Next time, we will do also the cooking class.
Very recommended.

Delicious food, very kind service from Naji and atmosphere.
I recommend the beef with carmelized onions!

We did have a good dinner. Thanks to Adi for his great cuisine and very nice service. The prices are raisonnable. The restaurant is located inside the building, just keep looking for the sign if you don't wanna miss it 😊😊 we will be back again. Thank you

Everything about this place was amazing! Naji, our waiter, was so friendly and kind. The food was absolutely phenomenal — recommend the beef tagine with prunes. Amazing amazing restaurant, would come back again!

Lovely place to eat. Thanks to Naji and friends for the experience.

Use Google Maps or similar to find the place.

The food was absolutely outstanding! By far the best, home made tagines we’ve had our whole trip, the meat was so soft and tender, especially the beef! The set menu is such good value for money- will be further recommending this place to everyone who visits in Marrakesh!

I highly recommend this restaurant. The vibe is nice and the interior is very traditional Moroccan. The food is amazing. I was most amazes by the excellent service by the waiter Adnan. Best service I've experienced ever. I truly believe every waiter has to take an quick course with Adnan to improve their overall service, hospitality and kindness ❤

Dar Chef is a nice hidden restaurant we found because of its high google rating. Its also recommended by TripAdvisor. I can totally recommend it too.

It seems to be run by women only which were very friendly.

We ordered tajine and meat with mint tea and black spiced coffee.

My colleague liked his tajine and mint tea very much.

The mixed meat i ordered came in a clay pot and was very soft and yummy. Side dish was cinnamon coucous and vegetables. The black spiced coffee was veeeery nice. At first i thought it was bit thin, but it tasted great.

The ambiente was maroccan and kinda tasteful.

Service was great, starters excellent. The only tiny ‘disappointment’ was the chicken rfissa, it had way too much bread and not enough chicken and the taste was ok but a little bland we thought - but this is our own opinion. Other than that, everything else was perfect.

Top food and nice friendly stuff. We came here for the camel tagine and the pigeon pastilla. Unfortunatelly, camel tagine needs to be ordered by the previous day so we didn't have. The pigeon pastilla was interesting, but I generally like the chicken one better as it is more tender. We also good tagine kefta which was really good.

We had a great meal at Dar Chef and it was a pleasure to meet Najid. Strongly recomended
