Salon Bleu — Mediterranean Tapas, Tangier
Salon Bleu is a highlight in Tangier’s luxury dining world — a multi-story restaurant famous for its beautiful views and fancy vibe. The sea views that sprawl across the Bay of Tangier from the upper floors, with the Strait of Gibraltar visible and the Spanish coast a mere 14 kilometres away on clear days, are among the most extraordinary available from any dining room in Morocco.
The kitchen serves Mediterranean tapas and local delicacies in small-plate format: the Moroccan dishes — the briouat (pastry parcels), the kefta preparations, the chermoula-marinated fish — alongside the Spanish and European tapas that the Tangier’s cross-cultural identity naturally absorbs. The small-plate format allows the kitchen to demonstrate the range of influences that have shaped Tangier’s culinary character.
The wine programme reflects the two-continent setting: Moroccan Gris rosé alongside the Spanish wines that Andalucía’s proximity makes natural, and the French selections that Morocco’s Francophone culture demands.
Salon Bleu is the Tangier restaurant for evenings when the view is as important as the food — and in a city where you can see two continents from the dining room, that is not a minor claim.
