Chez Simo l’Italien — Restaurant in Marrakesh Prefecture

I had the absolute pleasure of visiting this family-run establishment (half Moroccan half Italian), and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that made me feel right at home.

The family’s dedication and passion for what they do truly shine through in every detail, from the impeccable cleanliness to the personalized service. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and their kindness and attentiveness were unmatched.

It’s rare to find a place where you feel not just like a guest but like part of the family. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience. Thank you for making my visit so special—I’ll definitely be coming back!

Fantastic pizza place with real flavor! The pizzas are baked in a traditional wood-fired oven right in front of you, and you can taste the difference—crispy, smoky, and fresh out of the fire. That oven alone is worth the visit.

We also had the tagliatelle with carbonara, and it was unexpectedly delicious—not just filler on the menu.

Service was top-notch, especially from the lady with the hijab—super friendly and attentive.

The only downside is the wait time. There’s just one guy running the whole pizza operation with a single oven, so when it’s busy, expect a queue. If you’re in a hurry, plan ahead.

All in all, amazing food and great vibes—just pack a bit...

The pizza was very thin and crispy, perfectly soft and not chewy even when cold; definitely a nice surprise. The desserts and the value for money were also excellent; if you happen to be in Marrakech and are in the mood for Italian pizza, Chez Simo L'Italien is the...
