Le Rouget de L’isle

Casablanca


Occupying a charming 1930s villa in a leafy street near the Abderrahman Slaoui Foundation Museum, this upmarket restaurant is known for its modern French cuisine served in a wonderful garden scented with night-blooming jasmine. It's a romantic spot for dinner in warm weather – in the cooler months guests eat in the intimate, art-adorned salon.
