laÔ Marrakech review: our verdict
Five floors above the street, a doorman to welcome you, then large glass windows opening onto Marrakech: laÔ surprises you. The dining room plays with candles, low light, natural materials, and street art-style walls. The menu bears the signature of Philippe Marc, formerly of the Parisian Relais Plaza, with Kamal Ait Ayad executing it in the kitchen, and it jumps from one continent to another: sushi, oysters, sea bass ceviche, spring rolls, couscous, truffle pasta.
Until 11 pm, a singer with a remarkable voice holds the room; afterwards, the DJ takes over and the bar serves its creations. The service is attentive, and the menu pleases both vegetarians and meat lovers. For a two-person anniversary or a night out with friends, a evening that starts at the table and ends late to the sound of the DJ. Less for a weekday dinner that should remain short: everything here encourages you to stay, and the doors open at 7 pm to close at 2 am.
The dish to order: the beef fillet, so tender it wins over the table. The good find: the laÔ menu, 570 DH to taste a bit of everything (updated March 2026). The trap: arriving after 11 pm hoping for the live set, it's then DJ time.
