L’MDINA RESTAURANT.

An Excellent Place Close To The Square.

L’Mdina is a great little place serving authentic, good quality food close to Jamaa El Fna.

The meals are good value for money, and there’s a lively atmosphere with live music playing.

The menu is interesting and varied.

They serve traditional tangia (tender meat, cooked for hours in an earthenware pot, called a tangier)

The lamb was cooked to perfection,  succulent and tender, and the aromatic aroma as it was tipped from the tangia onto the plate was mouthwatering.

The salads are delicious and creative, combining an interesting infusion of flavours.

I especially enjoyed the vegetable tagine, with root vegetables and chickpeas.

L’Mdina is a restaurant serving Moroccan, Mediterranean, and international dishes with a traditional gastronomic touch.

It is located about 2 minutes from the square.

They also have seating available for people, simply wanting a coffee or just a drink at the bar, whilst listening to some live music.

The menu is suitable for vegetarians with vegan options also available.

The restaurant seats 60 people and is beautifully decorated with an authentic Moroccan theme.

The musicians played a mix of traditional Morroccan music and Latin American.

They entertained the diners without being too loud, so we were able to engage in conversation.

It was the perfect dinner setting. A combination of  good food, a nice ambience, as well as being budget friendly.

Whilst it can get quite busy, I didn’t have to queue long.

I was happy to be seated outside. It was a nice, warm evening, and I was content feeling the vibe of the restaurant mixed with the magic of the medina during evening time.

L’Mdina is close enough to the main square for a break from the hustle and bustle, whilst still feeling a part of it.  It’s a place to go for an hour or so to recharge one’s batteries.

There is a set menu at lunchtime for 85 dirhams, and it’s worth every penny.

If you want a tasty meal, which is reasonably priced with some entertainment, I recommend giving L’mdina a try.
