A very nice round table decorated with fresh flowers spread on and at the table.We had a no waiting time fore the headwaiter came to bring the menu card.The other waiter mr Nejib placed the serviets under the plates , very conveniently.We ordered Turkey in orangesauce File mignon to dinner. We had redwine to the dinner. 2 bottle Magon vieux, and some water. First we had some simple mezza, mini brik, tartine, harrissa, tuna and some other things served with local oil and freshbread with and cereal , very tasty.We waited 10-15 minutes(a little to fast to eat the mezza) and the food was brought to our table on small transport tables. . The red wine was DECANTED in some nice decanter before serving, very good.The dinner was served under a serving dome to look nice and keep it warm(god thinking)We had sauce champignion and bernaise . Very tasty , especilly the homemade bernaise. The meet was tender and medium done as we asked fore.The ladies had the Turkey with the orangesauce , witch the lovey, meet very tender and served also with extra sauce beside. We had a waiter nearly all the time behind the table(at a discreat distance) Not pushing fore anything. so thats ok.We enjoyed the place, nearly fullybooked.we had crepe suzzette with icecreme flamebee in Grand mamier .. very nice and tasty, not to much. The ladies had Dark choclate on a cake with ice, nice taste.We had some coffee and free served local tibarin (licoer).Al the meal was exelent. The serving staff made a great job, not to much or to little.The music , Tunisien floklore was nice ...but maybee to loud when during dining..a little bit less loud would bee nice.The toilet was clean and tidy at the time we arrived , but sholud have a renovation to live up to the nice restaurant reputation... The standard allover was really exelent this friday evening. KEEP up the standard.

This was recommended by a local, as a comparatively expensive but very highly regarded restaurant. It was indeed very good both, fish of the day was excellent as well as a selection of starters. I'd say it was well worth the extra money. The service was very polite, if a little hesitant, and the atmosphere was really nice despite the restaurant being quiet during off-season. We'd ended up buying so much food that they kindly packaged it up for us to take away.Recommended :-)

I have been returning to Lido since I was a young kid. The interior hasn´t changed much since then. They still serve the best sea food in Sousse. In close competition with le Surfing. This is where local people eat. Start with sallad méchoui, olives, harissa and a cold glass of wite wine waiting for you apterizers. Suids, fish soup, mussels etc. It is all very good and at dirt cheap prices.Lido is always my first stop for dinner in Sousse. Usually also the last before leaving.

One of my top three Sousse restaurants. Great food, nice welcome and high level of security. Consistency of food quality and portion size is excellent. Popular with overseas visitors and locals alike. Great for friends to hang out, families to gather, or if you want a romantic dinner a deux. I especially love this place in summer to enjoy sitting outside on the terrace with a view of the sea which is opposite the restaurant. I've tried several things on the menu ranging from a melange of starters, to pasta dishes, risotto, salads and chicken dishes. None have ever disappointed and from time to time a side portion of chips to share with a friend - the best we can find in Sousse! All main meals are accompanied with a courtesy basket of bread, olives and a couple of small dips. A reasonable choice of alcoholic drinks too. Service is just right... there when you need them but never feeling rushed if you want to linger or relax and enjoy the sun and the sea view. The servers, who we now know quite well, go to great lengths to make sure we're comfortable and the umbrellas outside are arranged to give as much shade as possible once temperatures rise. And my usual bug bear in Sousse - lack of decent toilets - but here you will be fine as they are clean and well maintained! ENJOY.

This is a lovely place for a drink, snack or meal, especially if you are a first time visitor to Sousse. This place is easy to find, the staff are excellent and it offers good value if you are perhaps less confident about tackling more "local" cafes. It is spotlessly clean, the food and drinks are good, expecially the brunch, obviously popular as lots or local people can be seen enjoying it too. Check out the signs for the loos - hilarious! :)

We visited the place middayVery empty at this time , just 5 guests and us 3 pax.We had a table just inside the door..nice with fresh air..many..maybe all cafes and restaurants allow smokers all over.. A VERY BAD THING..well the servant was very pleasant and helpful..we had some beers and cola zero. Salad , bread, small Tunisien tapas. We had the local brick...very crispy and well done.It's like fillone with egg tuna onion and mash potato inside with Tunisia spices..+we had tomatosallad. It was nicely served and was really tasteful.The service was good and we got a nice "home" feeling.The toilet was ok but no paper to dry hands.The price was very good..cheap place...cost and relaxing placeMany thanks for your valuable comment Sten, and for taking the time to publish it ..Your good words will encourage us to do even better ..I did not quite understand your note ânice with fresh air..many..maybe all cafes and restaurants allow smokers all over.. A VERY BAD THING" ..We are a no-smoking restaurant ..Maybe you are referring to the smell of incense which comes from burning light sticks of amber (smoke), which we feel is in harmony with the arabesque style and character of the restaurant and the âspiritâ of the whole ancient Medina ..Also, whenever a customer informs us of his/her discomfort of said fragrance/smoke, we remove it immediately.Regarding your note âno paper to dry handsâ, itâs really strange as the paper towel dispenser is verified every 20mn all day long, and so are the toilets.We keep a large stock of paper towels, toilet paper and other janitorial consumables at all times.On behalf of the whole Dar Soltane team, to whom I passed your message, it was a pleasure to welcome and serve you ..We hope to see you again ..!

We enjoyed delicious home cooked food served by the friendly couple who run this place. Lamb with couscous was really tasty, salad Mechouia was spicy and also delicious. They are working on the rooftop terrace; when itâs finished itâll be a lovely place to sit and enjoy a cool drink. Very handy after a visit to the Sousse Archaeological Museum.
