Dos Hermanas is usually full (that's why I recommend arriving early, and not too ravenous, as you might need to wait a bit before getting a table) and is always buzzing with people's happy cheering conversations. The sangria is delicious, the tapas are really tasty. However, beware not to have "les yeux plus gros que le ventre" as it is tempting to try everything but it'll be very hard to stand up if you do so.. Better to order little to start with, and order again after if you still feel peckish! I've always had a great time there, and what's more to it, the staff is so nice and easy-going that you feel at home!

I really enjoyed visiting Chez Gilda. The place is cute and tiny, with just a few seats inside…read morealong the counter, and a few seats outside. Loved the poulpes (little octopuses) which were tasty. The mange-tout were all right, nicely fried up, but I'm not a big fan of those salty little fish. The panisses are great: little chickpea patties, very simple, fried crispy and tasty. Apparently, they're a local specialty. I'm glad I tried them at Gilda's, because they were excellent here, and I can totally imagine someone messing them up. A perfect accompaniment to the other food. Gilda knows how to fry up some good food. Definitely a fond food memory of Marseille.

Absolument magnifique! All of the food was fantastic and this was a super worthwhile visit. as…read morebudget travelers, we decided to forego the bougie-abaise and opt for more affordable seafood. Chez Gilda was recommended by my boyfriend's friend, and I'm so glad we got to try it.The prices were also reasonable and the people so friendly. The chef was warm, friendly and made excellent food. His co-owner made amazing hummus that I will absolutely dream about going back for. This place is a must for anyone who visits Marseille. The jumbo shrimps were cooked perfectly, as was everything else we ordered (aka just about the entire menu), like the calamari and the octopus. We washed everything down with beer and white wine, and got to eat outside on a perfect late summer's eve. The restaurant is tiny, as there's limited seating outside and a counter where you can stand and eat inside, but it was clean and vibrant.

A great hidden gem! It was our first night in Marseille. We were unsure of where to go, until we…read morefound this place had good reviews and it was around the corner. "It couldn't be that bad" we said. It was not bad at all! The entire atmosphere was as French as it gets, the bar person greeted us with "I am full tonight" and we said "what about the bar?". He said "the bar is free" so we rolled in. The bar person explained the whole menu to us, paired our wines with our tastes and treated us to nice conversations. Turned out the bar person was the owner. His service to the entire restaurant is like an entire experience to be had. He served the whole place, 20 tables and 5 bar seats, by himself. There were 2 chefs, and they rolled out dishes every 5 minutes. The small menu helped them. The food was amazing. The bruschetta was my favorite, although the pork dish was my second favorite. I was definitely in food heaven in a French movie filmed during the night. I will forever remember!
