Frommer's Review
One of Meknes's best restaurants is hidden by a very unassuming exterior that thankfully opens onto a lovely shaded garden and elegant tiled interior. Manager Aziz Bennouna presides over a long-serving team of uniformed waiters that are typically unobtrusive and professional. The menu covers a wide range of French and Italian cuisine, with more than 30 cold and hot starters; my favorite is a deliciously simple onion soup. These are followed by a variety of grilled meats, pastas, and seafood, delivered fresh every morning. There are also Moroccan standards such as lamb and beef tagine, and a couscous aux sept legumes that will easily feed two happy vegetarians. A three-course menu du jour usually consists of a grilled meat entree with soup and dessert. Speaking of desserts, try the crêpes suzette or flambée banane for something different.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
