We ordered: A few fruit smoothies-both were refreshing, fresh and downed rather quickly. I went with Le tropical and my daughter chose the Le Bronzette, which was a nice combination of berries. Reasonably priced! Many to choose from! -Veggie quiche-flaky crusts and layered with all sorts of veggies. Served warm. Well liked. -Salad sampler- our choice of two salads from the prepared case. We chose the chickpea and the wide rice salad. Both very flavorful, dresses lightly, but adequately and given in very hearty portions. When we had the leftovers boxed to go, the man behind the counter even replenished the baguette chunk it came with. Nice touch. -Nutella Crepe-perfectly thinly folded crepe with a generous amount of the hazelnut spread. (Kiddos flipped for this one) -Espresso for one euro. Whether you're looking to just to sip espresso and take a moment watching the boats come in or the mini train that goes around town ride by, or to jump start your day or afternoon with some fresh pressed juices or smoothies and a dose of greenery, this place has you covered. It's a simple pay at the counter joint with tables outside only. When we dined it started to rain and the umbrellas at the colorful tables were big enough to keep us dry. It was actually quite lovely to be outside in the rain on the harbor. I remember having a "European moment" and just taking it all in here. Kiddos loved how bright & happy the place was and the cute trays everything was served on. Parents, if you bringing your kids here, they're probably going to want to ride the train after. Just a heads up! Plant based options galore!! Service was very friendly! Free WiFi. Cash only!

We opted to share la menu végétarien, and for 15 €, it was almost enough to satisfy! We had to order a second helping of falafel al a carte (includes 5 extra falafel balls) which was then enough for us to feel oh so good. The fixed menu includes hommos, baba ganoush, tabouli, samboussik jebne (which is like a little samosa with cheese inside), fatayer (another samosa type with spinach inside), rakakat jebne (melted cheese inside Lebanese bread), falafel, and mjadara (potatoes and lentils). There was also a rice dish listed, but we didn't get that. You also get an ample side of pita bread! It's a lot of food and it's all perfectly prepared. At the end of the meal they brought us a couple sweet desserts, one corn based doused in honey, and the other a cream-pistachio topped sweet bread. And! A delicious serving of Moroccan mint tea. This was my favorite meal in Marseille, hands down. If it only were closer to where we stayed, we would've returned for another delicious meal. Don't miss out on this place!

Brilliant, simple, clean modern design is both exciting and soothing. The location is right on the river and I'd guess in the summer sitting on the deck with a glass of wine is pretty fabulous. The food was stellar and for the quality well-priced. We all had the Marche Menu--three courses for 30E. The starter was a amazing scallop carpaccio with sea urchin, salad, some crisps; the plat was a deconstructed duck breast, with some potatoes, mushrooms, and a few other things--amazing taste and lovely to look at too; the dessert was (and this is going to sound odd) a chestnut cake with marinated/carmelized celery. Sounds weird, tasted great. Throw in an amuse bouche and some cookies at the end and for the price of an extra-large meat lovers' pizza back in California, you can have a pretty incredible meal. I'll be thinking about this day for a while.
