Les Jardins du Lotus review: our verdict
No menu tajine here, and they own it: in their medina patio, Les Jardins du Lotus go international, from teriyaki chicken bowls to truffle spaghetti, with steak and fajitas in between. The decor, however, stays local: a pool, restored mosaics, greenery all around, with a touch of modernity that refreshes the whole.
The place changes its face according to the hour. At noon, it's a quiet refuge to take a breath away from the souks; in the evening, the music rises, the tables get closer together, and the night turns into a party. A good choice for a group of friends wanting to go out or an occasion in a beautiful setting, with service that knows how to present the dishes. Pass if you're looking for real Moroccan cuisine or a quiet dinner: in the evening, the music quickly drowns out the voices, and prices climb above comparable standing tables.
The right slot: dinner for the atmosphere, lunch for the calm. The trap: the wine list, expensive even for Marrakech. The good tip: go to the end of the alley without hesitation, after having booked.
