Restaurant du Peuple in Sousse is a true haven for lovers of authentic Tunisian cuisine. This charming eatery perfectly blends the warmth of local hospitality with the rich flavors of traditional dishes, making it a must-visit for both tourists and locals.

We started our meal with fresh baguette and a bowl of house-made soup. The soup was comforting and full of earthy, spiced flavors that immediately whetted our appetites. Accompanying these were sides of sauces and a delightful eggplant dip, which was smoky, creamy, and packed with layers of flavor—a perfect complement to the bread.

For the main course, we indulged in Couscous with Chicken and the Berber Casserole with Fish. The Couscous with Chicken was an instant classic—fluffy, flavorful couscous paired with tender, well-spiced chicken and a medley of vegetables cooked to perfection. Each bite was a symphony of flavors that reflected Tunisia’s rich culinary heritage.

The Berber Casserole with Fish was equally delightful. The fish was fresh and flaky, bathed in a rich, aromatic sauce that was both hearty and satisfying. The traditional Berber spices and the slow-cooked preparation elevated the dish, making it a standout item on the menu.

The ambiance of Restaurant du Peuple was cozy and inviting, with a rustic charm that made us feel right at home. The staff were attentive and eager to share the stories behind the dishes, adding a personal touch to our dining experience.
