restaurant lakasbah etoile ouarzazate — Restaurant in Ouarzazate

When we arrived at the cinema museum the parking attendant immediately started trying to got to this restaurant. When we came out of the museum he was standing there again telling us to got to the restaurant. Should have been the 1st red flag. Against our better judgment we decided to eat there. We didn't have much cash on us so before we were seated I asked if they took credit card the person that was behind the bar and spoke good English said " yes we take credit cards" so we decided to stay.

My partner ordered the pastilla, and it was a masterpiece—a delicate, flaky pastry filled with a savory-sweet blend of pigeon, almonds,...

We stopped here as part of our 1 day guided tour through the Atlas Mountains and to Ourzazate. We got the fixed menu (130 dh/person not including drinks) which included a starter, a main and a dessert. The starter (soup or salad) was simple, but tasty, the main (we had the chicken skewers and the chicken and lemon tajine) were also freshly prepared and delicious and for dessert we had watermelon and a couple of Moroccan sweets.
