Starting from a tiny teaser, followed by a small appetizer, the main dish is well proportioned. We really enjoyed the quality and novel combinations of tastes. Service is on the slow side -- it took about 2 hours for our dinner but there are really great views of the port and coastline to enjoy. The staff are really helpful; my wife had sprained her ankle earlier in the morning and our waiter gave us a sealed bag of ice! Definitely recommend!

I ordered whatever was fresh, caught here in the waters of Marseille - I have never tasted a better whole fish than here. Grilled whole with zucchini and peppers making a delicious ratatouille. Two glasses of rosé, and a beautiful view as the sun set over the port. I never caught the waitresses name, but she was so accommodating and friendly, and made me feel at home while I was alone.

Glad we got to try this restaurant on our last night in Marseille!…read more For starters, we ordered the mussels, fried quid, and octopus salad (not pictured). If I had to choose, I would reorder the octopus salad and would not get the mussels. They flavored the mussels with a parsley sauce which I was not a fan of. The sea bream looks so simple and was so delicious. All it needed was a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon and...voila! Perfection. The fish is served with a platter of vegetables - ranging from green beans, snow peas, carrots, salad... We finished dinner with a lemon tart and chocolate fondue. The desserts were mediocre. I would skip the desserts here and go elsewhere.

This place isn't one of those touristy places where they serve you bad food. They take their food quality really seriously here. You can tell based off of what you get. The wait staff is pretty nice although service is really slow. I suppose it is not the American way where they push you out. Instead, they take your time so you can enjoy your food. For parents of little ones though, I would have appreciated some more expediency. The food was sooooo good. They serve typical Provincal food. We got their seafood platter. The freshly made garlic mayo complimented the food perfectly. I also got the shrimp and rice. This was yummy but not as good as the seafood platter. The next day we got grilled octopus with rice. The octopus was perfectly grilled. For high quality food, the price point isn't too bad. I think it is on the more affordable end.

Being American, I made us a 7:15pm reservation. When we arrived the restaurant was empty, with only two tables occupied... my wife started to get a bit nervous. But we then remembered that any reservation before 8 is a very American thing to do! Around 8pm the restaurant began filling up with locals; we were at the right spot! Being out of the Old Port area, we didn't pay tourist pricing and probably had the best lobster we've had in a long time. The service staff is very friendly and interacted with us in English. They were having fun and were very attentive to us in explaining the menu. If you're in Marseille, this spot is a "Can't Miss"!

A must for seafood lovers. We came in for lunch just as they opened and already there were two…read morepeople sitting at tables. This restaurant seems to specialize in raw and cold (crab and lobster) seafood, and it is excellent. We ordered oysters, uni, and clams and all were amazingly fresh, clean, and flavorful. There was no mignonette or any sauce and everything was served with butter and bread. The combination was surprisingly good. The oysters and clams were briny and bright, while the uni was pure umami and not oceany like Santa Barbara or Hokkaido varieties often are. They have an English menu, and the wait staff were attentive and spoke English as well. Worth a special detour if you're ever in Marseille. Update since being in Nice: We have yet to find a place in Nice that even compares. We were hopeful that Peixes, with its incredible number for 5 star reviews, would be comparable. While decent, they were not even in the same class.

We were given a buzzer after ordering and food was delivered to the table after we found a seat. Everything we ordered was delicious, super fresh, and well priced considering the tourist-y area.

Wine recommendations were perfect. Don't miss on the home made gelato. I would say it was most enjoyable meal we had in Marseille, France and it wasn't anywhere near the harbor. Go figure! Our friends were from France and Canada and we just loved how much fun we all had that evening. Make a reservation or very unlikely you'll get a table. Enjoy!

The price quotes is 55 euros per person, with a two person minimum. To be honest, it was incredibly disappointing and not at all delicious. I would not order it again by any means, but I'm glad I can say that I tried it. It tastes like a fish stew with hints of curry. We also ordered the seafood spaghetti where the noodles were cut into short strands. I'm not sure if this is a common occurrence here but I prefer my spaghetti to be longer. The taste was great, it was a tomato based pasta topped with two delicious prawns. We also ordered the grilled octopus salad with garlic olive oil which was tasty. Overall, this meal was too pricey for what we received in return, although the markup comes from its location on the port.
