Besides the central island town this city sucks pretty much but if you ended up here , this restaurant is TOTALLY THE BEST THING The placing is in the most beautiful place of the whole city! Believe me The prices are relatively high but I will not call that expensive for the service and deliciousness(if that word exist) of what you will get. We have been served by the owner herself and she is super nice. For the meal we took fish and meat and both Of them were delicious!( Not sure I still have pictures of all that) After all , 2 plates, one entry and one dessert, 2 aperitifs and an aperitif snack (which was given us as a gift) was overall of 60 euros

If you are looking to dine outdoors near the Marseille harbor but away from the touristy crowds,…read moreVinonéo is a good option. I had a lovely lunch here on the terrace out front. Even though it was 30°C, the breeze and shade from the tall trees made it a perfect spot to enjoy some French fare and people watching. The fresh Burrata Caprese (with pesto sauce!) and Squash Blossom appetizers were very tasty. Probably the the best versions of each I've ever had. I was so full by the time I finished them that I had a bit of trouble making my way through my Lamb Shank entrée. It was lamb roasted with shallots, root vegetables, and a wine sauce, but the meat was a bit over-cooked, salty, and dry. I probably should have chosen a lighter dish. The wine I had was very good though, and it's a beautiful place to dine outdoors!

The service was attentive, but unobtrusive. When we are back in Marseille this is definitely a place we will happily return.
