Open evenings, late into the night
Vanisca sits on Avenue El Houssine Achengli in the Sonaba/Mimosas building, a few minutes inland of the Agadir beach promenade. The kitchen runs French and Italian dishes with a strong seafood lean — pil-pil prawns, sole stuffed with prawns in shrimp sauce, seafood risotto, ribeye and Alfredo chicken.
Why eat here
Vanisca is a long-running French-Italian seafood favourite a short walk from the beach promenade — strong on shellfish, generous portions, and a calmer setting than the marina-front tables.
Cuisine
French-Italian, halal-compliant, with a clear seafood focus. Small plates and a coffee-and-dessert section round out the menu.
