Chez Lamine Hadj Mustapha Jemaa El Fna – Marrakech
Restaurants · Marrakech
About this place
At the entrance to the mechouis alley, just north of Jemaa el-Fna square, Chez Lamine serves two dishes and has been serving them for decades: mechoui, whole lamb lowered in the morning into a wood-fired oven buried beneath the restaurant and roasted for several hours until the meat falls off the bone, and tangia marrakchia, slow-cooked in an earthenware jar.
The dining room rises from the street-level counter, where the jars line up, to a covered terrace overlooking the souks. You eat here among Marrakchis, at any time of day.

Vous aimez la viande ? Vous adorez l'agneau ? Ne cherchez plus, c'est ici qu'il faut venir déguster un agneau cuit dans un four enterré. Choisissez le poids de la viande, payez et allez le déguster sur la terrasse. Inoubliable !
The best Méchoui cooked on site in authentic buried ovens! You have to choose your piece before going to sit down... We had ribs, they are the best lamb ribs eaten! Incredible tenderness, soft and flavours with the bread and spiced salt...Basic but efficient service. The place to be in the souk.

Le meilleur Méchoui cuit sut place dans des fours authentiques enterrés ! Il faut choisir son morceau avant d'aller s'installer... On a pris des ribs, ce sont les meilleurs travers d'agneau mangés ! Tendreté incroyable, moelleux et saveurs avec le pain et le sel aux epices...Service basique mais efficace.
