Pure Passion

Agadir


A black-and-purple colour scheme and Victorian light fixtures reinforce the Gothic chic at this restaurant, considered one of Agadir's best. Score a table on the terrace for marina views, and sample crevettes pil pil (prawns in a garlic sauce), fresh Dakhla oysters and good vegetarian options. The wine, beer and cocktail list runs across multiple pages, and the three-course lunch menu (Dh180) is excellent value.
