Le Jardin Restaurant Marrakech Medina

Le Jardin offers a beautiful setting right in the heart of the Medina—an oasis of calm with a charming atmosphere and a lovely view. The décor and ambiance are definitely highlights, and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming throughout our visit. As for the food, it was of good quality and tasted great, but leaned heavily toward a Western/European style rather than offering something authentically Moroccan. That in itself isn’t a problem, but it’s important to note if you’re hoping for local flavors. The main issue was the price. While the food was enjoyable, it felt overpriced—comparable to what you’d pay in many parts of Europe, even Switzerland. Considering we’re in Marrakech, where quality food is usually more affordable, it didn’t feel justified. It almost felt like we were paying more for the ambiance than the cuisine. In summary: a lovely place, nice staff, and good food, but the price-to-value ratio just isn’t there. If you’re visiting Marrakech for its authentic and affordable culinary experiences, Le Jardin might not be the best choice. I wouldn’t recommend it overall.

We had been recommended to come here as it was close to our Riad. The food was ok, but I expected so much more than just ok to justify the high price. I had Chicken escalope which I enjoyed,but not much in the way of garnish or veg or sauce,I ordered chips which were tasty enough. My wife had Bolognese pasta which should have had cheese or garnish but was just a bowl of adequate pasta with an ok sauce. Hot chocolate was warm and again tasty but not very hot. I left feeling that we paid a premium for an adequate meal. Service was fairly slow,I had to ask the chatting waiters for drinks and desserts rather than them noticing we had finished. Certainly an ok meal with a busy feel, but more cafe than top restaurant.

Le Jardin is a fantastic restaurant that truly exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious, offering great quality and flavors at a very reasonable price. The hospitality was outstanding—Meenal, the front-end staff member who welcomed us, was particularly warm, accommodating, and went out of her way to ensure we felt comfortable, even without a prior reservation. The ambience of the restaurant is charming, adding to the overall experience. It’s the perfect spot for a delightful meal with excellent service. I highly recommend Le Jardin for its lovely food, great atmosphere, and top-notch hospitality!"

If you're a foodie, you'll need to stop in. The staff was very courteous, manager and food servers checked on us consistently. The ambiance is comfortable and relaxing. The food is crazy good; even one of my pickier kids tried several things and liked several dishes. Most memorable meal in the Marrakesh Medina. Definitely eat here at least once, twice for a fuller menu sampling.

A restaurant in the heart of the Medina, hidden from the street noise in a spectacular courtyard. Moroccan food, but updated with a lot of flavor and spectacular flavor combinations. You can feel the relaxation amidst all the hustle and bustle. We have been for both lunch and dinner, and I recommend both. The place is magical during the day but even more so at night, with candles. The music and the atmosphere are unbeatable, just like the attentive service. A space with a courtyard and different covered rooms. Definitely a great choice to repeat over and over again.

I was not impressed by the quality of the food at Le Jardín. Yes, the place is packed, the 3-levels restaurant atmosphere is beautiful, service is good too, but the food didn’t make it for me, it was average. To be honest, if you are looking for great food, this is not the place for you. If you care about the vibes, looks and not care so much about the food, then give it a try.

Solid food. The garden setting is very nice, but I am not sure if it is too the level I would call magical that I read from many other reviews. Prices are similar to other restaurants in the area, which is not cheap but also not expensive given the setting is very nice. The chicken pastilla is the most tasty dish we had, but the seafood pastilla is not as good.

Went here for lunch – the place is beautiful and full of greenery 🌿 but super touristy and packed. When we arrived, we were seated in a hidden corner with no sun and waited over 15 mins just for a menu. Had to ask 4 different waiters before someone finally let us switch to a better table ☀️. What we ordered: 🥘 Beef Tanjia Marrakchia – juicy and well-flavoured, recommended 🍖 Lamb Mechoui – tender and not too gamey, pretty good 🍗 Chicken Tagine with Olives – just average for us 🥚 Tagine Chakchouka with Eggs – our favourite, rich and satisfying 🥧 Chicken Pastilla – with almonds, sour cream & cherry coulis – a bit unusual, just okay ✅ Ambience: Gorgeous garden setting ❌ Service: Slow and inconsistent ✅ Food: Mixed, some good hits ⚠️ Tip: Be prepared to wait, especially during peak hours
