EL JADIDA MILANO In Milano

Authentic Arabic atmosphere, food with Lebanese influence, very good, I will be back

I have now returned to this restaurant several times because I really like both the menu and the welcome. You eat really well and you spend the right amount. It's a shame about the limited vegan choice when it comes to desserts!

Characteristic and well-kept place Excellent dishes and for those who don't want to try the really good North African specialties you can opt for mushroom risotto or beef fillet which you find on the menu. If you have any doubts, the very kind staff patiently explains the ingredients of the specialties. The prices on average are a little high but it is definitely worth it. Reservations required on Fridays and Saturdays but there is a show with the dancers

El Jadida is much more than just a restaurant: it is a sensorial journey into the heart of Arab traditions, a corner of Marrakech in the center of Milan. The atmosphere, with attention to the smallest details, immediately transports guests into a refined and evocative environment, thanks to handcrafted sofas, cushions and carpets coming directly from Morocco, and large and modular rooms perfect for intimate dinners, private parties or corporate events. Cuisine and Menu El Jadida's menu is a meeting of cultures: traditional Moroccan and Lebanese dishes - such as couscous, tajine, falafel, hummus and shish taouk - are offered with attention to both authentic flavors and the needs of Western palates, thanks to the collaboration between a Moroccan cook and an Italian chef. The restaurant is also a point of reference for vegetarians and vegans, with numerous plant-based alternatives, and boasts Halal certification. Experience and Entertainment Every evening at El Jadida is enriched by belly dance shows, live music and dinner shows that make dinner a real event. After dinner, you can relax with a hookah of multiple flavors or enjoy refined cocktails and fine spirits, immersed in a unique and engaging atmosphere. Hospitality and Owner Particular praise goes to Amir, the owner, whose hospitality is truly excellent. His personal journey, from hotel training to his love for Arabic cuisine, is reflected in the attention he pays to each guest and the care with which he guides his staff. Giulio stands out for his ability to put anyone who crosses the threshold of the restaurant at ease, guaranteeing a friendly, professional service that is always attentive to customer needs. His passion is evident in his desire to make Arabic cuisine and culture known and appreciated even by those approaching it for the first time, offering explanations on the dishes, recommending pairings and even guiding "newbies" in the hookah experience.
