Signature: Lamb tagine with quince, Pigeon pastilla, Couscous Fassi

Limoni ★ 4.1
Limoni in north Marrakech medina is a quiet riad-kitchen running honest Italian pasta and pizza around a courtyard with a heavy old lemon tree.
Signature: Homemade pasta, Wood-fired pizza, Lemon tart
Order: Whichever fresh pasta the kitchen made that morning; ask the server for the day's batch.
Tip: Closed Sundays. Find the door via Sidi Ben Abbas mausoleum; phone the riad if you get lost in Diour Saboun.
Pepe Nero ★ 4.3
Pepe Nero plates Italian-Moroccan dual menus in the courtyard of Riyad Al Moussika, a former pasha's palace five minutes from Marrakech's Jemaa el-Fna.
Signature: Homemade pasta, Italian or Moroccan tasting, Tiramisu
Order: Pick the Italian or the Moroccan menu, not both; the kitchen executes each tradition cleanly when it commits.
Tip: Closed Sundays. Reserve courtyard seating; the indoor salon is the rainy-night fallback.
Nomad ★ 4.6
Kamal Laftimi's four-floor rooftop on Marrakech's spice square Rahba Kedima, modern Moroccan plates served above the souk action since 2014.
Signature: Calamari with chermoula, Lamb shoulder with prunes, Pulled chicken sandwich
Order: Order the calamari salad with green chermoula and the slow lamb shoulder.
Tip: Reserve the rooftop terrace for sunset; the second-floor non-smoking salon is the calmer pick on a hot afternoon.
Le Foundouk ★ 4.4
A converted caravanserai near Bab Doukkala, Marrakech's Le Foundouk has plated Moroccan and Mediterranean tasting menus on its rooftop since 2002.
Signature: Pigeon pastilla, Lamb tagine with prunes, Tagliatelle with truffle
Order: Pigeon pastilla, then the lamb-prune tagine; book the rooftop in clear weather.
Tip: Closed Wednesdays. The covered rooftop has Atlas views in winter when most other rooms close their open terraces.
Al Fassia Gueliz ★ 4.7
Run entirely by women since 1987, Al Fassia in Marrakech's Gueliz cooks the refined Fassi (Fez) repertoire under chef Saida Chab, daily lunch and dinner.
Signature: Lamb tagine with quince, Pigeon pastilla, Couscous Fassi
Order: The slow-cooked lamb tagine with caramelised quince, served with khobz bread.
Tip: Order tagines a la carte rather than the set menu; the kitchen's strength is single-dish patience, not coursing.
Naranj ★ 4.3
Naranj on Riad Zitoun el Jdid is the Marrakech medina Lebanese spot: a Lebanese-Syrian husband-and-wife team plate mezze and grills on a rooftop terrace.
Signature: Mezze platter, Hummus, Lamb shawarma plate
Order: Build a meal from the mezze, then the chargrilled lamb shawarma plate.
Tip: The rooftop seats half the dining room; in cooler months the covered courtyard below is the calmer choice.
