Rick's Café

A great experience. Make sure you book as not guaranteed a table. We booked a couple of weeks ahead of our planned visit to Casablanca. Lovely abience in the restaurant with the piano playing in the background. The food is a little above average nothing exceptional. A small menu. As other reviews have said service not in your face. Well worth a visit if you are here.

Entering Rick’s Cafe, we were impressed by the Moroccan decoration as well as the staff uniform that were similar to that in the movie Casablanca as well. The bartender had the bow tie while the waiters had the cool Moroccan hat with tassels. As we were being seated, the famous tune “As Time Goes By” was playing and that really brought us back to how we’d imagine the set of the movie to be. We were seated just outside the courtyard with direct views of the Moroccan lamp and high ceilings in the Riad – the only seat in the house to have these views. Across from us, we could see the piano, double bass and drum set that resembled those used in the movie...

Solo traveller. Visiting Rick’s was an essential for my visit to Casablanca. I know the movie wasn’t made here but still. It’s the vibe and experience I was after. Travelling as a single older lady sometimes tosses up the odd barriers. There was none of that here. The meal was excellent, well balanced flavours and beautifully presented. Service impeccable and friendly without being in your face. The staff are rightly proud of the business and very happy to show you around if you are interested and willing. Having said that I was there for lunch. I don’t know how you would go in the evening. The movie is running on repeat in a very comfortable lounge upstairs if you are inclined to sit there and watch with your post meal coffee. Thank you to the staff for being so kind and inviting. I enjoyed my visit very much.
