Italian-Moroccan fine dining in a grand Medina riad
An upscale Italian-Moroccan restaurant in a beautifully restored Medina riad, and one of the most romantic dinner spots I keep returning to year after year. Pepe Nero's kitchen fuses Italian classics with Moroccan flavours with real conviction — the handmade tagliolini with saffron and sea urchin (220 MAD) is extraordinary, and the wood-fired sea bass with chermoula crust is my standing order. The fountain courtyard lit by hanging lanterns on a warm Marrakech evening is genuinely magical. Budget around 400–600 MAD per person with wine. Book the inner courtyard table specifically — ask for Rachid when you call. Updated March 2026.

“Italian fine dining by a Marrakech-based Italian chef who's been here 20 years. The homemade pasta rivals anything you'd find in Rome. The garden setting in Palmeraie is romantic.”
• Pepe Nero is a high-end venue — budget accordingly. Bottle service and VIP tables add up quickly.
• Book ahead, especially on weekends and peak season (March-May, Sept-Nov). Walk-ins may face long waits.
