Luigi Maârif

“We visited Luigi yesterday, and overall it was a pleasant experience. Upon entering, we were greeted (most likely by the manager) and quickly shown to our table. The waiter came promptly, brought menus, and set the table with napkins and cutlery. Sauces were already on the table, which was a nice touch. The atmosphere felt warm and homey, with a true Italian spirit. There are several areas — a terrace and indoor seating on both the first and second floors — giving it a cozy, family-style feel. We were served bread with butter, olives, and a few pieces of focaccia — simple but very nice. The waiter was attentive and professional, always nearby but never intrusive, and he took our order quickly. We tried the pizza, which was said to be a bestseller, but it turned out to be just average — around 3 out of 5 for us. The toppings weren’t as flavorful as expected, and the choice of pizzas was so large that it was a bit overwhelming. The crust was thin, which we appreciated, but overall the taste didn’t quite impress. The salmon pasta, however, was much better. There was plenty of salmon, and it was of good quality. The tagliatelle tasted fresh and homemade, though the dish itself could use a bit more flavor depth — maybe a touch of spice or tomato to balance the creamy sauce. Still, it was a solid 4 out of 5. A nice place with pleasant service and atmosphere — worth visiting, especially if you enjoy a calm, family-style Italian restaurant.”

“Very disappointing experience at Luigi in Maarif. I was there with a group of 6 people and unfortunately the experience was bad. I ordered a seafood pasta, but the seafood quantity was very little and the taste was not good. They changed it twice, but both replacements were still bad. I finally switched to lasagna, which was also not good. The only positive point was the service — our server Younes was very polite, professional, and did his best to help. Sadly, the food quality was very poor overall it’s not Italian restaurant . I wouldn’t recommend this place.”

“My kids and I love this place. Pasta is great, salads, fried calamari, seafood pasta was very tasty. My children said the flat bread that's served in the bread basket was the best they ever had! Everything was delicious, presented beautifully and staff and our server were very friendly.”

“Verry nice experience. Food was good, buratta salade was delicious, and the seafood pasta was also good. The Margherita pizza was a real desastre, not italian at all. The desserts were Ok, but I really expected a higher level. Surtenly the teramisu, the cream 👎🏼 The creme brulé and panacotta👌🏼 Servers were verry nice and polite👌”
