Le Barberousse
A Tunisian restaurant set into the Kasbah walls of Hammamet's old town, with a rooftop terrace overlooking Hammamet Bay. Its couscous earns the highest praise.
The restaurant is built into the Kasbah walls of Hammamet's old town. A steep staircase inside the old town leads up to a rooftop terrace facing Hammamet Bay and the walls. The menu highlights Tunisian specialities, with wild fish couscous and lamb couscous as the stars, along with egg brik, mechouia grilled vegetable salad and grilled fish, which is delivered fresh daily. Prices average TND 35–65 per person, which is on the pricey side for the old town, and some diners report that drinks alone can exceed TND 100. Booking is advisable in July and August. When full, guests may be seated in the lower dining room, which has no view. Cards are accepted.
