The Restaurant del la Libertad is the Mecca of good cheap eats
in Rabat. Hands down, this is the place to go in Morocco’s bustling capital city
to fill your belly without emptying your pocketbook. The meals are delicious,
the portions gracious, and the staff deals out their authentically Moroccan
culinary delights with smiles that are tucked away beneath ear to ear mustaches.

Upon entering the little restaurant, which is on the main drag of Rabat in the
Ancient Medina, one is immediately met by a friendly waiter who shows you to an
empty table and hands you a menu full of distinctly Moroccan food. Couscous,
chicken, lamb, kebabs, eggs, beef and chips, and tagines litter a menu that is
unassumingly written in both Arabic and French. The options for a delightful
meal are seemingly endless, as every option on the bountiful menu tantalizingly
calls to your taste starved palate.
The price of a meal at the Restaurant de la Libertad is also a painless
experience, as almost every meal on it is under thirty dirhams. A heaping plate
of couscous and a big mixing bowl full of chicken, yams, and vegetables goes for
24 dirham (three dollars); while a nice piece of beefsteak with a side of fries
and bread only costs 29 ($3.50). A plate of scrambled eggs sets you back a mere
6 dirham; while a great cup of fresh mint tea comes for only three.
In all, the Restaurant de la Libertad is a hidden gem in the busy and modern
capital city of Morocco. This restaurant is also one of the few places in Rabat
which serves good, authentic Moroccan food in a setting that is not dressed up
and overpriced for tourist. Eating here is not only a delicious culinary
delight, but also a genuine Moroccan experience.
