Best Dishes at Dar El Benna

A popular order at Dar El Benna, the four-cheese pizza combines creamy mozzarella, salty feta, nutty emmental, and a local cheese that varies seasonally. The crust is thin and slightly crispy with a faint char on the bottom. This is straightforward pizza done well, not attempting innovation but executing the basics reliably.

The calzone is essentially a closed pizza—dough wrapped around ricotta, mozzarella, and your choice of meat filling, then baked. The outside is crispy and slightly charred, the inside creamy from the cheese and warm from the filling. A hearty option that travels well if ordering for delivery.

Lighter than pizza or pasta, this salad features fresh shrimp and tender squid on a bed of mixed greens. The dressing is simple—olive oil, vinegar, a hint of lemon. Reviewers note the seafood is fresh and not overcooked. A good choice for lunch or if you want to balance heavier dishes shared at the table.

For groups or indecisive diners, this split pizza works well. The meat half has minced beef and caramelized onion, cooked until the meat browns slightly. The vegetable half features tomato, bell pepper, zucchini, and fresh herbs. The crust is consistently crispy, and both halves are well-balanced—neither overwhelms the other.
