Kasbar Boracay: A Flavorful Moroccan Escape by the Beach
Moroccan food is a rare find in the Philippines, and even more so on the island of Boracay. Amidst the rows of beachside cafés, seafood grills, and island bars, there is one vibrant spot that offers something truly different: Kasbar Boracay, formerly known as Kasbah.
Located along Station 1, this beachfront restaurant brings the colors, spices, and soulful flavors of Morocco straight to Boracay’s shores.

Dining at Kasbar is a feast for both the palate and the senses. Its al fresco setting gives guests a clear view of Boracay’s iconic white sands and crystal-blue waters, creating an atmosphere that’s both laid-back and transportive.

Thoughtfully placed shades allow guests to enjoy the outdoors without the harsh tropical sun, while cabanas adorned with Moroccan-inspired patterns offer intimate spaces for groups who want a more private experience by the beach.

Kasbar invites diners to embark on a culinary journey to Morocco without leaving the island. The restaurant specializes in authentic Moroccan dishes infused with vibrant spices, aromatic herbs, and cooking traditions that have been passed down for generations.
Among its must-try specialties are the Beef Kebab and the Lamb Tagine, two dishes that beautifully capture the essence of Moroccan cooking.
The Beef Kebab is grilled to perfection, offering tender, juicy chunks of beef infused with a smoky aroma and layers of spice. Each bite is robust and flavorful, a testament to the careful marination and charcoal grilling that give Moroccan kebabs their signature taste.

Equally remarkable is the Lamb Tagine, a traditional Moroccan dish known for its slow-cooked tenderness and complex flavors. The lamb is simmered with a medley of spices and herbs, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully into a rich, aromatic sauce. The dish is not only halal but also deeply comforting—perfect for those looking to experience the warm, spiced soul of Moroccan cuisine.

Kasbar’s servings are designed for sharing, with portions ideal for two to three people. This communal style of dining mirrors Morocco’s culinary culture, where food is enjoyed together and flavors are meant to be savored slowly.
A Night of Culinary Artistry
Kasbar Boracay isn’t just about everyday dining—it’s also a hub for creative culinary events. After the overwhelming success of their last supper club, Kasbar invites diners to another extraordinary night of gastronomic exploration.
On October 4, 2025 (Saturday) at 6:00 p.m., Kasbar Boracay will host “The Art of Tasting”, a Supper Club–inspired 7-course degustation available at Php2,500++ per person, designed to celebrate Boracay’s vibrant flavors.
This exclusive menu is curated by Chef Richard Gallego, a celebrated Golden Chef Awardee, Demo Chef, and Outstanding Professional Chef of the Year.
Each course is thoughtfully inspired by Boracay’s iconic places, presented through the lens of Moroccan and contemporary culinary techniques. With communal seating, guests can look forward to not just exceptional food, but also lively conversations and shared experiences that make the night unforgettable.
This event promises a one-of-a-kind island evening where flavors, stories, and people come together at the table.
