Umia

If you feel like treating yourself with creative and great food then you should come here. Besides, the atmosphere is great. It is a stunningly designed restaurant. And our waiter tonight, Mohammed, was the absolute best. He made our evening so very connected and joyous.

This was by far the best dining experience we had throughout our entire two week trip to Morocco. The service was outstanding, we were beyond impressed and the food was delicious! They had some wonderful specials in addition to their already impressive menu and we tried a little bit of everything, one of our favorites was the octopus crudo. The atmosphere was what initially drew us in and it was so beautiful, the music was perfect and the lighting gave it the perfect ambiance for a romantic evening. We would highly recommend visiting Umia while you’re in Essouria and you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent experience at Umia last night. Food was incredible, the atmosphere was cosy warm and elegant. Muhammed served us and was extremely attentive, friendly and made us laugh. We stayed until they closed, we didn’t want to leave! It was a perfect way to end our stay in Essaouira. Will definitely be recommending this place to friends.

I ate my first beef wellington here and wow, it was so tasty! It blew my mind 🥰 The crumble dessert was so good too. The host was very welcoming and kind

My partner suggested that we try Umia, and it did not disappoint. This was the best meal I have ever had, the menu was incredible, the people are fantastic, and the atmosphere is lovely. GIVE UMIA A MICHELIN STAR!! You must try the pork. It’s a joke how good it is.

The staff where very friendly, I believe it was the owners that greeted us, they are very talkative and very nice people. The food was amazing and the decor was lovely Would highly recommend

A nice-looking but pretentious and overpriced restaurant for rich people. We were passing by and were amazed by the interior design. A friendly man saw and approached us, we started a conversation and decided to enter. We wanted to have a drink and celebrate, but when another person (a French woman) asked us what we wanted to eat and we replied "drinks and a dessert", she changed her behavior and started treating us differently - probably because she initially thought that we would spend much more money there. She started taking the plates off very loudly while talking something to herself irritated. As a result, our special evening turned into a huge disappointment. The quality was ok but there are so many other places around in which the service will take really good care of you. We don't recommend this one.

Wow! Just wow! The meal and experience my family and I had when we were here was amazing. It started with the warm welcome at the door, we did not have a reservation, but we were still lucky enough to get a table. Once seated, we received a lovely cocktail, freshly made by the bartender. The food was delicious and so well made and the local wine is a great match with all the dishes on the menu. The staff was lovely and super professional. This place is a real must to visit, when you come to Essaouria and we will definitely come back, to this warm spot when visiting this city.
