    Love that this restaurant had a huge outdoor dining space but it's a mixed blessing as many diners smoke, some quite heavily. The service was a bit inattentive even though we were there at 7:30 PM which is considered early & not all the tables were occupied. We had to flag down the wait staff a few times for basics - water refill, breads, new plates, etc - and a few of the dishes arrived later than they should. The lemonade was watered down, the bouillabaisse was extra salty and the octopus pasta was nondescript. The best dishes were the tomato salad and the anchovies with vegetables. Mediocre experience for the price paid. I'm glad my friends & I got to experience it but we'd look for another place to try.

    A restaurant run by two sisters, it's been around for thirty years. I love the concept; it's a restaurant slash bookstore slah gift shop. As my entree, I had the roasted scallop - it was to die for delicious ! We also grabbed a bottle of wine - Zoe from Pays D'Oc. Once again, it was awesome. For dessert, I got a melange of various desserts - chocolate mousse, cheesecake and a tart. Not too sweet, which was a great ending to my meal. I won't be back in Marseille, but if you're in this port city and need to go for a meal, come here !

    Great food in a relaxing atmosphere. We had cuttle fish casserole, pasta with octopus, grilled fish, and of course, bouillabaisse. All excellently prepared and presented!

    This review isn't based on the staff (who were attentive and friendly) or the ambience (which is lovely). This review is based solely on the disappointing bouillabaisse. I know, I know, there are probably better places on the bouillabaisse trail in Marseille but €30 is already more than enough to spend on what is really just a simple fish stew. I just wanted to try it somewhere halfway decent. What can I say? It's a simple fish stew. The fish was over cooked, as you would expect. The flavour of the soup was nice and the rouille was fab but it really did not merit anything near €30. Ah well. At least I gave it a shot. We didn't try anything else but the other dishes looked amazing!

    Came here specifically for the Bouillabaisse. It did not disappoint.The broth was incredibly complex and concentrated. There was ample seafood and crostini accouterments.
