Dar Yacout, Palace restaurant in Medina, Morocco.
Dar Yacout is a restaurant palace in Marrakesh's Medina with multiple dining chambers featuring smooth tadelakt plaster walls, marble floors, and ornate chandeliers throughout. The rooms blend traditional Moroccan craftsmanship with contemporary comfort for diners.
British designer Bill Willis transformed this palace into an ornate restaurant in the 1980s. His work integrated traditional North African building materials and techniques throughout the interior design.
The space reflects Moroccan hospitality traditions through its layout and service style. Guests experience how the country's dining customs are expressed in the sequence of courses and the careful attention to each course's presentation.
Visitors should expect a fixed menu format with multiple courses and should book ahead as the restaurant is popular. An evening typically starts with drinks on the rooftop terrace before moving to the dining chambers below.
The meal follows a set sequence starting with numerous vegetable preparations and progressing through several main courses featuring local ingredients. This progression reflects dining patterns that families have maintained across generations in the region.
