Where to Eat in Safi: The Best Restaurants and Bars
This coastal city is one of the oldest in Morocco and naturally has a rich history. It is a big fishing port and a beautiful coastline near the less industrialized areas. The fishing port is definitely something to take a look at. Many vendors at the markets sell cool pottery, so have a look there.
Things to do in Safi
1. Restaurant Moukhlis Fish

Specialises in fresh fish from the port of Safi.
Reviewed By Billabongshade - Melbourne Australia
We have visited Safi (known as Asfi locally) a dozen times in over an eight year period and somehow missed the best place to grab a fine meal. Our Safi business connections took us to Moukhlis Fish for lunch... What a delightful surprise and I know why this "local secret" has been kept just so. We had a feast of freshly caught seafood within sound of the Atlantic waves. Safi is generally not on the tourist trail but if you find yourself there go to Moukhlis Fish. Ask a taxi driver to take you there. Try the "friture special" absolute value at 45 Dirhams ($5) Lots of choice, depending on the luck of the fishing but Moukhlis get the first pick of boats coming in so be assured it will be the best of the day. Will certainly be back again next year and for more than one meal.

Lunch of avocado and shrimp. Beautiful presentation. Lovely place for lunch. Watching the birds play in the Fountain surrounded by citrus trees, roses and birds of paradise. Can only imagine how lovely it is at night. Would have stayed here too but it was booked. Next time!

We were on the road from Essaouira to Oualidia on the Moroccan coast and passing through Safi when we decided it was time to eat. We passed through the phosphate factories....nothing good...passed through the city centre....nothing good......just after we passed the port itself.....bam up popped a small collection of fish restaurants on the left. Our guide said all looked fine so we parked. Please avoid the guy who is trying to get you into his place (he was persistent) and go to the 1st one on the right. We could tell it was going to be good because it was full of ......(this is not meant to be sexist)...women! The staff were inviting and friendly and the place was clean and packed full. Once seated we ordered a triple platter of random fish and calamari. Wow....so fresh and a perfect lunch choice. Hope you get there sometime!

If you're only in Safi for a fleeting visit and you enjoy a good tagine (or three) you want to be stopping off at Chez Hosni's place. Not only will you be treated to the best tagines in Safi (if not in Morocco) but you'll have Mr Hosni himself, showing you exactly what fresh ingredients goes into the tagines and how he cooks them, right in front of your eyes. My boyfriend and I had two fish tagines, one a John Dory and the other was Angler, both in different sauces which were amazing! Thinking we were too full for anymore, Mr Hosni insisted he cook us a "dessert", which was in fact a sweet, fruit tagine flavoured with sugar, lemon and cinnamon, which was fantastic. Mr Hosni was such a great host and was so passionate about his tagines! This place is an absolute must and although it doesn't look like much from the outside, don't be fooled! Thank you Mr Hosni for the best meal of our holiday!

We stopped in for an appetizer and drink since we arrived in town early for a wedding. None of the food on the menu appealed to us but we still decided to order a glass of wine. The server informed us that the establishment was not a bar and made it very clear that we were not welcome.

Le restaurant était vide quand nous sommes rentrés. Nous avons eu un accueil sympa et quand le serveur a pris la commande, nous avons attendu 40 min car il n'a pas osé nous dire que ce que nous avons commandé n'était pas sur la carte donc il a fallu aller le chercher d'un autre endroit et ça nous a vraiment énervé car nous avions faim.
Sinon la nourriture est bonne est fraiche
