The Agadir Mag take

Abchir Grillade trades formality for theatre. You point at the day’s catch—prawns, sole, snapper, calamari—and watch it cook on the grill metres away. No menu, no pretence, paper tablecloth. A small salad and lentil soup arrive first. The lentil gets consistent praise; the salad varies by day.

The honest friction: pricing per kilogramme isn’t posted, which frustrates those wanting clarity before ordering. One diner paid 200 MAD for two and found it fair; another thought it steep. Lunch seems safer than late evening—one reviewer hit a near-closing at 8:30 pm. Service is functional rather than attentive; bring your own water if that matters to you.

Where reviews genuinely agree: the fish tastes fresh, the grill chef is approachable, and the noise level suits the setting. It’s working seafood, not a destination play.

The best seafood we had in Morocco by far! Fresh seafood, very nice atmosphere, lively and loud but in the best way. We stumbled upon it by accident and it smelled wonderful so we sat for food and loved it. You pick from an array of fresh fish ( there is no menu, it’s whatever they found in the market ) and they grill or fry it there in front of you. They bring out a small salad and lentil and thats it. Wonderful! Highly recommended!

We arrived at the restaurant at 8:30 pm on a Sunday and it was already preparing to close. There is no menu, the price per kg of fish is unclear, it is said to be around €15 per kg. The starter was ok, like a Moroccan salad, the prawns were normal, the grilled fish was normal, the service was very basic, paper tablecloth, we were not asked for drinks, we brought water from home, no receipt or slip, but at least they gave us a bit of a discount if you deal with the grill chef. Better to go for lunch or to other more efficient restaurants. Total cost 200 dhm. Definitely not a 5-star seafood restaurant.

A very authentic experience. You pick the fish you'd like and they grill it for it. The staff was welcoming and the food was nice. I would go again!

Had the most amazing meal here last night! I was by myself & wasn’t sure what to order. The man on the grill was so helpful & cooked me up a delicious plate of friend calamari, friend sole, and grilled snapper. The staff were so nice too, Shukran!
