Overview

Dining The guide was updated: 2022-10-29

Eateries in and around Hammamet (and the Yasmine resort complex) cater to a plethora of different tastes, given that the city regularly receives large numbers of foreign visitors. Seafood features prominently on local restaurants' menus, and so does lamb. One local specialty not to be missed is couscous, a dish containing the grain itself along with meat and/or vegetables. Meals often come with a side of harissa - a spicy peppery paste, to be mixed in with food or used as a spread.

Le Barberousse

Le Barberousse

Tremendously popular with local and international diners, Le Barberousse is another restaurant set directly on the Medina ramparts. Views from here are superb, and the menu doesn't fall far behind, listing a wide assortment of fresh fish and seafood dishes.

La Belle Vue

La Belle Vue

La Belle Vue is a decent quality eatery serving a pleasant selection of local and international dishes at reasonable prices. The restaurant's name does not betray expectation - views from here unfold over the Hammamet beach with a line-up of scenic boats, with the setting sun as backdrop.

Fatma

Fatma

Located on the waterfront, Fatma is a safe bet when it comes to picking a dining spot in the vicinity — dishes here are of honest quality, with an emphasis on local fare and seafood. The restaurant is set only a few meters away form the beach, and is a good people-watching location.

Chez Achour

Chez Achour

Chez Achour ranks amongst the finest in Hammamet - in terms of seafood, at the very least - the display of freshly caught marine creatures entices diners with its abundance, and dishes are served in the restaurant's intimate, shaded courtyard. Located steps away from the Medina.

Condor

Condor

The refined Mediterranean restaurant enjoys a great reputation locally, and serves a variety of well-made dishes, fusing French, Tunisian, and other culinary traditions. The outdoor terrace is especially inviting at night, when the space is dimly lit.

La Bouillabaisse

La Bouillabaisse

The restaurant's imposing sign is hard to miss — especially so at night, when the letters light up. La Bouillabaisse serves French cuisine with an individual spin, with cooked-to-perfection meats, seafood (escargot in garlic sauce), and other dishes gracing tables of loyal customers.

La Bella Marina

La Bella Marina

La Bella Marina is a vacationer's darling — apart from serving some excellent seafood, the restaurant also provides a complimentary shuttle-to-hotel service, making it very easy to access. Do not skip on the starters and fresh bread with a selection of spreads.

Resto de la Plage

Resto de la Plage

The restaurant is set directly on the beach, offering diners unobstructed views of the water and — during the evening hours - the golden sunsets. Cuisine served is a mix of Mediterranean culinary traditions, with an emphasis on Italian flavours and seafood. Mind that alcohol is not served here.

Golden Fish

Golden Fish

The excellent seafood restaurant comes recommended as one of the finest in Hammamet (meat-lovers won't be at a loss either). The refreshingly attentive service, generous portions, and the beachfront outdoor terrace combined make for one memorable dining experience.
