Under the Marrakesh Stars: The Secret to a Truly Romantic Dinner

What is a truly romantic dinner? Is it found in the complexity of a Michelin-starred menu, or in the buzz of a city’s most fashionable restaurant?

We believe the secret is something far simpler, and far more profound.

True romance isn’t found in a crowded room; it’s discovered in a world built just for two. It’s a feeling of absolute privacy, where the setting is as intimate as your conversation, and the service is so intuitive it feels like magic. As the sun sets over Marrakesh and the day’s heat gives way to a soft, balmy evening, we create the stage for these unforgettable moments.

The Setting: Your Private Theatre

At Dar Ambre, we don’t have a public restaurant. Instead, we offer our guests private dining experiences in settings that feel like a dream.

  • Dinner on the Rooftop: This is perhaps the ultimate romantic gesture. Your table for two awaits on our secluded rooftop terrace, surrounded by the soft, flickering glow of dozens of lanterns. As the first stars appear in the vast Moroccan sky, the distant, gentle hum of the Medina provides a subtle soundtrack. It feels like you are floating above the world, in your own private theatre for the stars.
  • An Evening in the Courtyard: For a more grounded but equally magical experience, we can prepare your table in the heart of our home. Dining in the candlelit courtyard is like being in an enchanted, secret garden. The only sounds are the gentle whisper of the central fountain and your own conversation, with the air fragrant with the scent of night-blooming jasmine.

The Cuisine: A Conversation on a Plate

A meal designed for romance should be a personal affair. Our chef will craft a bespoke menu just for you, using the freshest ingredients sourced that morning from the local souk. From delicate, flavourful salads to an aromatic, slow-simmered tagine designed for sharing, the cuisine is both a discovery and a comfort.

Most importantly, the pace is yours. There is no rush, no one waiting for your table. It is a slow, leisurely journey of flavours to be savoured together, allowing for conversation to flow as freely as the complimentary Moroccan wine.


The Service: A Silent Presence

The most luxurious service in a romantic setting is the service you barely notice. Our hosts are masters of this art. Your glasses will be filled, courses will appear and disappear seamlessly, and your every need will be anticipated without a single intrusion. Our role is not to be the centre of your evening, but to be the silent guardians of it, ensuring the magic is utterly uninterrupted.


The secret to a truly romantic dinner, we believe, is a perfect, harmonious blend of place, taste, and privacy. It is a rare chance to feel like the only two people in the world, sharing an unforgettable moment in a beautiful, faraway place.

Are you ready to create an unforgettable memory for just the two of you?
