La Grillardiere, restaurant in Rabat, Morocco
La Grillardiere is a restaurant in the Hay Ryad area of Rabat, Morocco. Inside, you see wooden tables, checkered tablecloths, and a small open grill where meat and vegetables cook over charcoal.
The restaurant opened as a local grill spot in a growing residential district of Rabat. Over time it became a regular stop for people from nearby streets and offices looking for simple grilled food.
The grill itself sits close to the dining area, so guests see and smell the glowing charcoal while waiting for their food. Many groups share a single platter of assorted skewers and salads, a common way to eat together in this part of Rabat.
Come at off-peak hours to get a table with less waiting, since lunch and dinner can get busy. The inside area is compact, so if you want more room, ask for a spot near the window or on the outdoor seating if available.
The menu also includes pizzas baked in a wood-fired oven, which surprises first-time visitors who expect only skewers and grilled meat. The oven sits behind the counter, and you can watch the flat breads go in and come out with blackened edges.
