I recently had the opportunity to visit La Cuisine de Mona in Marrakech, a Lebanese restaurant known for its friendly owner, cozy atmosphere, and homely decorations. As a person who frequently dines out due to my job, I have visited numerous restaurants around the world, and this was my third time at La Cuisine de Mona.
One aspect that stood out to me was the warm and welcoming nature of the owner. The personal touch added a sense of familiarity and created a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant's ambiance was cozy and inviting, with its homely decorations contributing to a comfortable atmosphere.
When it comes to the food, I must say that while it was enjoyable, it did not leave a lasting impression. The dishes were okay, somehow tasty, but nothing particularly outstanding. As someone who has tried a wide variety of cuisines, I believe I have a fair basis for comparison. While the food at La Cuisine de Mona was decent, it lacked that extra something to make it truly exceptional.
Considering the quantity and quality of the food, I found the prices to be somewhat disappointing. For the overall dining experience and the flavors presented, I felt that the cost was not justified. This is not to say that the place is bad; it simply means that the taste and quantity of the food did not meet my expectations, especially considering the price point.
Despite my reservations about the value for money, I would like to emphasize that La Cuisine de Mona is by no means a bad restaurant. The friendly owner and cozy atmosphere contribute positively to the dining experience. However, for those who prioritize exceptional taste and generous portions for the price paid, there might be other options in Marrakech that offer a more satisfying experience.
Ultimately, La Cuisine de Mona is a decent Lebanese restaurant with a friendly owner and a cozy atmosphere. While the food is tasty, it falls short of being truly impressive. The prices, considering the small quantity and quality of the dishes, may not be worth it for those seeking an outstanding culinary experience.

Looooved loved this restaurant!! Absolutely amazing food. The staff is so nice and helpful, making the place even better.
If you’re going in groups you must have the plates for 3, 4 or 5 persons. For the 5 persons plate you can taste 10 different dishes, by your choice. For the 3 persons plate, you can still have many delicious options, given by the restaurant.
Really cozy atmosphere. This place is a totally must! 👌🏻

The good Lebanese Restaurant in Morocco. We love the Falafel and the homemade lemonade. Small place from outside but when your inside it’s spacious and cozy. The service is good and friendly staff. Value for the money. Would be nice to have an english menu. <3

It took us a little while to find it, but persevered on the recommendation of other travellers....it’s well worth it!
The team are super friendly and the food is delicious - we had the mezzo to share and it was more than enough!
It’s small so be prepared to share the space with other guests but the friendly atmosphere is fantastic
Definitely make a visit :)

Excellent Lebanese food.
We had lunch outside and we tasted several dishes. Everything was very tasty and well made. Very friendly service. They serve alcoholic beverages, namely beer.

We had such a lovely experience visiting this restaurant yesterday. Its a small intimate restaurant with a few seats outside but the decor gives it a lovely vibe. The service was amazing, we told the owner we were vegan so she let us know what we could and couldn't have. We tried about 5 different dishes including falafel, tabbouleh, hummus, baba ghanoush and a Lebanese salad. The food was amazing and we felt really well looked after. Will definitely be visiting here again!
