Le Darkoum, France sur Menton

Delicious chicken pastilla with good grilled salmon, but small portions

Every time I come to Menton, I dine at this restaurant in the center. On the various occasions I've stopped by, I've usually tried: - Moroccan salad appetizer - Vegetable couscous - Meat couscous - Mint tea - Arabic pastries They serve Arabic bread with a traditional harissa and olive sauce, excellent. I often order the Moroccan salad, made with cherry tomatoes, onion, and very finely chopped garlic; it's truly delicious. The couscous is always very good; the vegetables are well-cooked and plentiful, including carrots, chickpeas, yellow squash, pumpkin, and zucchini, all flavored with classic spices, and there's also a harissa sauce you can add to your taste. They bring the vegetables to serve in the center of the table, and the semolina on your plate. Once you've used up your portion, they'll give you more if you want. The other times I've tried the couscous with meat, it's always excellent. I always follow up with mint tea and a mix of Arabic pastries. What can I say? It's now my regular stop from Italy every time I come to Menton. They're friendly and helpful, and the prices are average compared to other similar establishments.

Exceptional lamb tagine and couscous 🙏🏻

The chicken tagine was delicious!! The mint tea was also top-notch!!

Legendary paella, a fantastic dessert with pineapple and ice cream, and no price gouging on the beer. Thank you! We'll be back.

The chicken tagine was amazing. Fully halal as well. Traditional and very tasty. Served sizzling hot. Highly recommend.

Best Moroccan food outside of Morocco !! (And yes it is halal)

This is my second time here at Darkoum's. The food, the atmosphere, the music—everything reminds me of my country, Morocco, especially the service and the decor. I feel right at home here. Thank you, Darkoum, thank you! 😘

Wonderful restaurant, perfect welcome and service! I felt right at home. Well done and thank you again.

Good value for money, I like it 👍
