The 22 Best Restaurants in Marrakech, Morocco | Eater

"Al Fassia, helmed by Saïda Chaab and her family, has been run entirely by women since it opened in 1987, as much a rarity then as it is now. For nearly as long, the restaurant has been hailed as the place to eat in the city. Start with the pastilla, a baked phyllo pie stuffed with chicken or pigeon meat, onions slow-cooked with creamy eggs, almonds, and powdered sugar. Then dig into one of the more unusual tagines, like chicken with caramelized pumpkin or beef with almonds, shallots, and rice. Al Fassia has a location in Agdal, but the one in Gueliz boasts a better ambience and more consistent quality from the kitchen. [$$$]" - Amanda Ponzio-Mouttaki

The World's Most Influential Chefs On Their Favorite Foodie Finds

"I’d been told that I had to order mechoui from the restaurant Al Fassia in advance, and thank goodness for the tip. The slow-roasted lamb, cooked in their all-women kitchen, was beyond melt-in-the-mouth perfection."

An exceptionally pleasant, family style restaurant. Service was caring, our waitress looked after as well. Food was tasty and especially the lamb shoulder is something not to miss. Best to save up your appetite for a full day prior to an attempt to eat this dish. Traditional Moroccan food prepared and presented by ladies who know their trade. The restaurant itself feels more like a living room in a wealthy person's home

Incredible experience - the atmosphere, the hospitality, the food. The food was especially delicious, best lamb either of us have ever had, and we experienced vegetables like we’ve never had before with the mixed salads. Honestly we were on the brink of giving up on Moroccan food 48 hours into our trip but Al Fassia has single-handedly restored our faith. These ladies are legendary in their craft, spending 4 years to master 1 dish (if we understood correctly). It was a real privilege to have been able to dine here and we will be back given the chance. Only regret is they fed us so well we had no room left for dessert.

I went to Alfasia with my friend and we had such a wonderful experience! The restaurant is absolutely beautiful, warm, stylish, and welcoming. I ordered the chicken with orange, and my friend a lamp tajine, both were delicious full of flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. The service was also excellent. All the girls working there were so kind, attentive, and professional, which made the whole evening even more enjoyable. I wont forget the guys at the entrance too they were very kind. Overall, a fantastic restaurant with amazing food and great service, we’ll definitely be coming back!

Incredible food. Nice setting. Highly recommend the tagines. We really enjoyed it. Staff were very nice too and sorted us a taxi home. Moroccan wine was also very good.

Exceptional food and a truly authentic Moroccan experience. A small but fascinating fact: since 1985, this place has been run exclusively by women - and they absolutely kill it. Every dish is full of flavor, heart, and tradition. The atmosphere is warm, the service is genuine, and the food speaks for itself. I’ll definitely return and recommend it to all my friends. Don’t even think twice - just go.

Food was good, had beef tagin and husband had the lamb shank. Service was fine. Ambiance was a slightly opulent, white tablecloths, a beautiful green garden towards the back. Near the garden is the only well lit area for tables. Other tables are dimly lit. English, french, and Arabic on the menus. Credit card accepted. The security guard out front was the most friendly, it was a pleasure to be welcomed by him and he warmly wished us well when we departed the area, offering to hail us a taxi if needed. I can't compare the food to other places that serve tagin cause it was mmu first time but I liked it, it wasn't dry, had good flavor, and the portion was perfect for me. I took an early evening reservation in Sept but it didn't seem needed as there were plenty of tables available for walk ins. Enjoy!

Great evening spent in Al Fassia Gueliz with family. They accommodated us early on our reservation. Service was efficient but reserved (not overtly friendly). Would recommended for authentic Moroccan cuisine.

It was an incredible dinner. The salad selection was incredible and never-ending variety of little salads that was one better than the next. We had a very attentive and friendly service and the environment was incredibly cosy. It was really a wonderful last dinner in Marrakech before flying back home!
