Most Popular Mediterranean food in Carthage, Tunis Governorate, Tunisia
Reviews on Mediterranean food in Carthage, Tunis Governorate, Tunisia. With a history stretching back nearly three millennia, Carthage was once the heart of a powerful Mediterranean empire before being leveled by the Romans in the Third Punic War in 146 BC. It sprang from the ashes to become an important early Christian center before again being destroyed by Islamic invaders in the late 7th century. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Carthage is a short train ride from Tunis and has several interesting attractions, like the Punic port and the Carthage Museum.

Yabon is an institution in La Marsa, Tunisia. It serves only lunch and the place is usually packed. The meals are all based on grilled fish with different sides to chose from: tunisian red-sauce spaghetti, tastira or grilled pepper puree with egg, french fries, djerbian rice. The fish is seasoned with cumin and other fantastic spices. You may have to share your table, but it is all in great atmosphere and you're well attended. This place is mainly if not solely frequented by people who know about it and regular customers. It is great if you want a taste of simple and real Tunisian fish food for a fair price.

I was with friends with no reservation, the restaurant was full. However, the staff were very helpful and supportive. They offered us a table after 5 minutes. The service was very good and the food was tasty. We ordered many seafood dishes including their famous spaghetti with seafood and the lovely Tunisian wine. The fish is always fresh, and the prices are affordable. A very good experience. We enjoyed much. I encourage all to visit that nice restaurant.

Great place to see a tethered camel and to eat well in a place filled with hustle and bustle. Good value for money and straightforward Tunisian food

Had a really bad experience here - actually our only really bad experience on our trip to Tunisia. The view is really great, but unfortunately the service was EXTREMELY slow and bad. Pizza can only be ordered at 5pm, so we waited for the due time and ordered pizza. An hour later we discovered there was no pizza - thatâs the short story. We ended up walking out without paying for our drinks that we had ordered in anticipation of the pizza. Actually, an unpleasant experience. We were offered to order a salad instead - one of our party being vegetarian!

Have been to this restaurant 3x over the last two years. Food is excellent displayed on a chalkboard menu brought to your table. Wine list is very good too. Bohemian expat feel to the place.

The place was recommended by a friend.Itâs a fine dining experience, I enjoyed the atmosphere and the location, the lighting was just right - romantic and calm - and the inside very nicely decorated. They have nice seafood dishes - especially the lobster with spaghetti is very yummy! However, they donât speak much English although itâs a touristic place and the Menu itâs only in French. When asking for explanations of the dishes the waiter got very frustrated and couldnât provide us any guidance and seemed very annoyed. Not nice Cocktails not so good, but the wine Yes. WiFi was provided, the younger staff was more accommodating than the older waiters who just seem to be easily annoyed by everything from customers. Customer service overall was ok, but can improve much more for such a fine restaurant.Itâs recommended to book in advance as it was quite full even on a Tuesday evening.Parking was not provided.They have also a boutique inside the restaurant that is very nice, quite pricy though ...
2. La Closerie
Overall Ratings

This is the most popular (and en vogue) restaurant in Tunis now. It serves a French-Italian-Tunisian cuisine. La Closerie's food is delicious, and it's excellent for people watching (particularly of the Tunisian jet-set).
Reviewed By 1963consultant
A unique place, vibrant with the jet setters, and an elite of young (and less young) people. The karaoke night is always packed from 10pm (even on weekdays)
1. L'Arbre a Couscous
Overall Ratings
4 based on 62 reviews
Imagined on the concept of a couscous bar : 5 varieties of semolinas couscous : white, whole wheat, spicy, red or ferficha couscous, vegetables à volonté. Choice between boulettes of fish, meat or chicken, and vegetarian balls. Also Lamb or Fish couscous.
Reviewed By Feras S
I've had couscous in several restaurants in Tunis, which are all very nice, but what's special about this place is that the couscous is home made and well crafted, and of many varieties, you can get brown, white, and normal red couscous, not to mention the toppings, my favorite is Couscous Dorade "The gilt-head bream". The quantity is very generous and the taste is superb. TIP: don't forget to order their butter milk "L'ban".
