A Peaceful Oasis in the Medina
Le Jardin
In the heart of Marrakech’s bustling Medina, where the sounds of merchants and the energy of the souks fill every corner, lies a serene escape: Le Jardin. More than just a restaurant, Le Jardin is a haven of calm, offering travelers a chance to recharge in a lush, green setting while enjoying refined Moroccan and international cuisine.
🏛️ A Hidden Riad Brought Back to Life
Le Jardin is housed in a beautifully restored 16th-century riad, once a traditional Moroccan home with a central courtyard. Today, the riad has been transformed into a restaurant that stays true to its architectural roots while embracing a modern, bohemian flair.
The name says it all — “Le Jardin” (The Garden) — where dining tables are surrounded by banana trees, exotic plants, and birdsong. The ambiance makes guests feel worlds away from the busy streets just outside its doors.
🍴 The Menu
Le Jardin’s menu is a perfect balance of Moroccan tradition and international flavors:
Moroccan Classics: Tajines, couscous, and pastillas with refined presentation.
International Touches: Fresh salads, quiches, and vegetarian-friendly options.
Refreshing Drinks: Smoothies, juices, and mint tea served in a relaxed, garden atmosphere.
The menu caters to all travelers — whether you want to try authentic flavors or enjoy lighter, modern dishes.
🕒 Visitor Information
Opening Hours: Daily, from morning until late evening.
Location: Just steps from the souks, near the Ben Youssef Madrasa.
Best Time to Visit: Midday for lunch between sightseeing, or in the evening for a romantic dinner.
✨ Conclusion
Le Jardin is more than a restaurant — it’s a sanctuary in the middle of Marrakech’s chaos. For DARSTAY guests exploring the Medina, it’s the perfect stop to relax, refuel, and experience Moroccan hospitality in a peaceful garden setting.
