"Traditional Food in a Dazzling Green Courtyard As one of the most innovative players on the Marrakech restaurant scene, Kamal Laftimi spearheads projects that are nothing if not showstoppers. This buzzy, green-on-green–tiled riad, bristling with courtyard banana trees, is a case in point. It's a hip hangout by day for locals and expats who meet for coffees throughout the morning and pop into celebrated kaftan designer Norya ayroN’s little boutique, which occupies a small space on the first floor. By night, it sparkles with the light of hundreds of glittering candles while large extended families and cooing couples gather over Moroccan classics such aspigeon pastilla, vegetarian couscous, and chicken tagine with olives and raisins, as well as a handful of crowd-pleasing classics such assteak frites and burgers (no alcohol served)."

This restaurant on the Medina is a gem. We made a reservation on 31st Jan for three of us at 2.30pm just 45min before. The food was yummy. Under mezze, we had - Carrot hummus and sweet paprika which was good with the bread. Assortment of Morocco salads. This came with 5 types of salad. One was a bit sweeter for our palatte. It was more of a carrot halwa if I have to relate it to an Indian dish. Vegetarian briouates was light and had a good filling of the vegetables. Soup of the day was lentil soup and it was decent. Roasted carrot salad was delicious with perfectly cooked carrots placed on a bed of cream cheese. Mint tea was mild, hot and nice. It was around 420MAD for the three of us. Definitely worth a visit for vegetarians.

We made a reservation in advance and were promptly guided to our seats. This place is really beautiful with all the greenery and tiling. We were offered fans to which was great given that it was extremely hot at this time of day. Food is on the pricier side however given the aesthetics of this place I personally didn’t mind. Portions were generous and food was flavourful. I particularly enjoyed the lamb croquettes.

Whenever I think of this restaurant, I'm reminded of the saying “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” As you approach, the exterior might not give away its true charm, but step inside, and you'll be transported to a stunning three-level oasis with a vibrant garden vibe! The ambiance is as delightful as the food, and let me tell you, it’s simply fantastic! We indulged in the avocado toast, seafood pastilla, and Shashuka, and each dish burst with incredible flavors that left us wanting more. The fresh juices were just the cherry on top! If you're considering a visit, I can't stress this enough: be sure to make a reservation a few weeks in advance to secure your spot in this culinary gem! Trust me, you won’t want to miss out!

Courtyard restaurant with a nice setting under the trees, offering mixed local and western cuisine. No alcohol served. Service was mediocre—the waiter brought all the food at once to a small table with no space and left us to figure it out. Unfortunately, the food gave us heartburn later that evening.

Very serene decor and incredibly delicious food. The hariri soup was very nice and they serve it with dates. Lamb shoulder was cooked to perfection. The pear tart was really tasty and not too sweet even though it was caramelized. It is certainly on the expensive side of Marrakesh restaurants but well worth it.

Le Jardin is a hidden gem within the souks, a tranquil oasis with lush greenery, charming decor, and a fantastic menu of Moroccan inspired dishes. Located in a restored riad, it’s an ideal place to unwind and escape the hustle of the market. The ambiance is magical, the food is delicious, and the service is friendly. Highly recommend for a unique dining experience that blends Moroccan tradition with modern style.

A hidden oasis in the heart of Marrakesh's Medina, Le Jardin offers an enchanting escape from the bustling souks. Stepping through its doors feels like discovering a secret garden – the space is incredibly serene with its lush greenery and traditional Moroccan architecture. The restaurant perfectly balances earth-inspired authenticity with refined dining. The peaceful courtyard setting, with its verdant plants and subtle traditional details, creates an atmosphere that's both grounding and sophisticated. The food matches the magical setting, with dishes that are thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. What makes Le Jardin special is how it captures the essence of dining in an ancient Medina while providing a tranquil retreat. Pro tip: Make a reservation in advance, as this hidden gem is increasingly popular with those in the know.

It’s a stunning setting. We booked one day before; arrived 1830hrs and had freedom to choose our table. We sat on the very top floor. In hindsight, it was too dark to eat/see your food. Downstairs looked better to see. There is no alcohol. The food was delicious. We spent 2200MAD for starters and mains; two adults and one child. Highly recommend the Kefta Tagine…
