Mechoui

Fancy food , served in traditional way, and old fashion traditional restaurant.
Very busy , if you want lamb before 4 pm.
Highly recommend 👌 if you are not allergic to service

One of the food highlights of Marrakech. There are about three or four floors to sit inside and the top floor has a great view of the mountains so get there slightly early and grab a seat.

At the front door in the morning they will be chopping up the freshly baked lambs from the underground oven. They were kind enough to allow me to film the oven which was great. The menu is very simple. They have other items but that’s is sort of against the point of coming here.

1kg of lamb will be enough for two. It comes with a cumin salt and bread. I would recommend getting there early in the day rather than for dinner. I could imagine that the lamb would dry out the longer the day goes. The lamb is a mix of super juicy meat, more fibrous, and fat. Getting a mouthful of all three was so good.

For sure you should visit, good price, great taste and within the main market.

The lamb head is amazing, a truly amazing place. You have to be adventurous, but worth it.

A bit crowded and full of locals and tourists. The lamb was good, especially with the cumin salt.

We had the most incredible dinner here. Juicy beef with fantastic herbs and spices. Omar who served us was very attentive and kind. 10/10 would recommend and will be back again 🙏🏼🙏🏼

We had the Mechoui and it was amazing. We’ve ordered 1kg for 4 people, 2 fries and 2 salads and quite frankly was more than enough (maybe a little bit much). It was tender and delicious. Make sure you order some salt as well!

We came to this area for lunch and boy this is one of the best meals we had in Morocco! The lamb was very tender and flavourful. We ordered 1kg for 3 ppl (for $200 Durham) and we were so full by the end of the meal! Highly recommended!

We ordered 1kg of méchoui (lamb shoulder) for three. And we were full! Super juicy, fall off the bones, goodness! Is it greasy, yes. Buy you can take the excess grease off. Definitely dip the morsels in the cumin salt mixture. You’ll need a digestive or a nap afterwards. We worry about lamb being too gamey (زنخ), this was not. Arrive early and enjoy the meal! worth a visit.

Loved this place for the roast lamb (mechoui). At the time of this post, mechoui for four cost 185 dirhams. We are it as 2 people and was quite a lot, keeping in mind we did not eat any of the bread given. We also ordered the salad and mint tea which were both very good. There's a few shops on the street which all serve lamb. The one we went to has a great rooftop terrace. The others had indoor seating. Staff understands English and French. When finished, you pay at the entrance, make sure you get your waiter to cash you out.

such a lovely place, so delicious Tagia!! 😋😋😋 the best Tagia in 1 week in Morocco!! we had a dinner In the terrace with the sunset, so romantic!! I truly reccomend it!!

Fresh well done food. Very busy. Not cheap though

Delicious food! Great service! Bring cash and prepare to get in a food coma afterwards.

Very delicious and fresh meat! We really enjoyed it

If you are a meat lover, you must try this place. It’s amazing.

One of the most delicious meat I ever had

Meat lovers paradise! Be there at noon to get the mechoui right out of the oven. Sprinkle the cumin and salt mixture on the meat and dip every bite of the meat in it too. Definitely eat with your hands. Combine a small chunk of meat with a small chunk of bread. This is also the place to eat tangia. These guys really know how to cook meat. Don't forget to tip for the awesome quality.

Favorite spot I ate at in Marrakech, family business that has existed for centuries. Definitely try the tangia here.

DELICIOUS 😋🤤 my first impression after smell and taste the lamb ... HEAVEN!!!! .. the experience was UNIQUE!

Great food, perfect location. Probably the best food and service we had while in marrakech.

The food is great. Cooked in traditional way. A little salty for me but could be right taste for others. Must visit at least once.
