Just a lunch stop - nice surroundings and decent meal if meze and small plates. Didn't try the more extensive menu. Would like to return for an evening meal with live music. Enjoyed our time though.

Very nice place in the heart of the medina. A little more pricey than the other restaurants i‘ve been to in the city but well worth it because the food is fantastic and there is live jazz music starting at around 7-7:30pm. I was very pleased with my server Simo as well, he was very attentive. I never had to wait for a long time when my food or drinks were finished for him to pick them up and either get in another order or bring on out the next course.

We had the pleasure of discovering this remarkable jazz bar in Marrakech — a true hidden oasis set atop the terrace of Riad Monceau, overlooking the city in all its beauty. From the very first moment, the atmosphere felt refined, intimate, and effortlessly sophisticated. The jazz music is exquisite — soulful, beautifully performed, and perfectly suited for lingering conversations and complete relaxation. It is the kind of music that doesn’t just accompany the evening, but elevates it. The service deserves special praise. The staff are genuinely warm, gracious, and impeccably attentive. Every detail is handled with care, and everything flows seamlessly, allowing guests to simply enjoy the experience without interruption. The cocktails are exceptional — imaginative, beautifully balanced in flavor, and presented with distinctive charm in rustic clay mugs that add an authentic and artistic touch. The cuisine is equally impressive. Each dish is crafted with finesse and full of flavor; every bite felt thoughtful and refined. Sincere compliments to the chefs for such a memorable culinary experience. We will most certainly return. Marrakech has a way of calling you back — and when we do, this extraordinary jazz bar will be at the very top of our list.

Shout out Nasser, he handled everything we needed before we even knew we needed it! Best server anyone can ask for. Appreciate the service, attentiveness and great sense of direction. Recommendations were chefs kiss. Dinner was amazing. Music was outstanding. Ambience on 1,0000000. Choose this place for a lovely dinner.

Amazing experience at La Pergola & Le Bistro Arabe. Special thanks to Nasser — he was truly outstanding. He paid attention to every detail and was very professional and smart in the way he handled everything. When I asked for a cocktail, he first asked what flavors I prefer (more sour or more sweet), which shows he really knows what he’s doing — and honestly, it was one of the best cocktails I’ve had. He also noticed I didn’t enjoy one dessert and, without me even asking, he brought another dessert that matched my preferences. That level of care made the whole experience feel special. Highly recommended!
