Le Marrakech sur Istres

17/09/2026: Always very, very good. The only slight drawback is that the tagines are smaller than before; the quantities are sufficient, but the space for the seeds is a bit small. But really, it's a minor detail.

15/09/2026: First experience in Istres. I had a felfel salad as a starter with a pastilla. Good, but not exceptional, hence the 4 stars (I haven't been able to find pastillas as good as the ones I had during my stay in Morocco). The tagine was very good. First time having a pastilla for dessert. Surprised by the result, but I wasn't expecting that. It was still quite good. I finished with some pastries, which were excellent. The service was very good, but the language barrier prevented me from chatting with the waiter. As for the atmosphere, apart from the music which sets the mood, it lacks something deeper. Having tried several Middle Eastern restaurants, I know this could be improved. A very good experience overall; I would return if the opportunity arises.
