Restaurant Gambrinus €

Dh70) A good place for Moroccan food in colourful surroundings in the ville nouvelle, which feels
like something of a surprise when you discover that the original Gambrinus was a Czech
immigrant in 1914. It’s perennially popular with locals, who come for the good range of tajines.

Le Dauphin €€

Dh150) It might have an uninspiring exterior, but the French dining room and lovely garden give
this restaurant one of the nicest dining settings in town. The menu is continental, with some
good meat and fish dishes. Alcohol is served.

Le Pub €€

11am-midnight) The dark mirrored windows and bouncers on the door make you wonder what
you’re letting yourself in for, but Le Pub is a welcome change if you’re feeling tajine fatigue. The
menu is split in two – half offering continental dishes, the other branching into a Moroccan take
on Chinese and Thai dishes. We preferred the oriental dishes over the pasta, but there are
some good steaks too. As befits the name, alcohol is served.

Palais de Poulet €

Offline map Google  map (   Rue Tetouan;    mains   from    Dh25,   salads  Dh15)   Looking down    from    the

Hôtel Rif towards Ave Hassan II, this is one of several good and cheap rotisserie places where
you can fill up quickly on chicken, chips, bread and salad. Although you order from the table,
pay at the counter inside.

Restaurant Pizza Roma €

Offline map Google  map (   Rue Accra;  mains   from    Dh20)   Although    the name    suggests    that    pizzas

are the speciality here, you could do far worse than load up on a filling plate of rotisserie
chicken with rice and chips. An unassuming place, it’s popular with female diners.

Pizzeria le Four €

Offline map Google  map (    0535   52  08  57; 1   Rue Atlas;  pizzas  Dh40-60,    mains   Dh65-85)    This    is

as good a place as any in the ville nouvelle to load up on pizza, and the dark-wood and brick
surroundings take you halfway out of Morocco towards Italy. Alcohol is served, so late at night
you sometimes find local men getting sloshed among the clientele. Watch out for the steep
service tax added to bills.
