Cheikh Ibrahim

Delicious food !! Moroccan soup and chicken and lemon tagine. You get several free appetizers so come hungry:-)

If you’re ever visiting Tangier, skip the restaurants on the main street and walk just a little further to discover this true hidden gem. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the beautiful décor and how exceptionally clean the restaurant is. The food is delicious, authentic, and generously portioned, while the prices are more than reasonable, especially considering its location in a popular tourist area. A special thanks to Mr. Younes, who made our visit even more enjoyable with his warm hospitality and outstanding service.

We have tasted the Tajine, Brochette and juice, all food taste good—just a little salty for me, but it already impressed me a lot . And the waiter was very kind and friendly. Strongly recommend.

Great food in a quiet alley just outside the medina. The restaurant is spacious and clean. We had the swordfish skewer, Moroccan soup and shrimp tagine, all are delicious. My favourite is the fish skewer, it’s super tender and flavourful.

Atmosphere & Setting Cheikh Ibrahim has the look and feel of a neighborhood Moroccan spot that tries to be both welcoming to tourists and faithful to local tradition. The menu design promises sizzling skewers and tagines, and the tables are dressed with woven mats and patterned fabrics, adding a rustic Moroccan touch. Seating is fairly casual, more practical than luxurious, so you feel you’re here for the food rather than for a staged “dinner show.” Cleanliness is decent overall: tables are wiped down quickly, and dishes come presentable. Sometimes, though, smaller details (like corners, restrooms, or sticky menus) can show less attention. Food & Menu As the cover suggests, the stars here are grilled brochettes and classic Moroccan dishes. Expect chicken, lamb, or beef skewers served hot off the grill, often seasoned with rosemary or local spices. You’ll also likely find tagines (lemon chicken, lamb with prunes, beef with vegetables), couscous dishes, and lighter fare like Moroccan salads, harira soup, and fresh bread. Brochettes: Flavorful, smoky, with fresh herbs. Sometimes slightly uneven in portion size, but usually satisfying. Tagines: If done well, the meat is tender and the sauce balanced; occasionally can come out a bit oily. Mint Tea: Sweet, fragrant, and usually poured with a flourish. Perfect way to finish.
