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.

The employees at Santa Gusto, however, were so kind, patient, & genuinely warm that I left feeling reassured and cared for. Food-wise, I got the Super Pipo. The truffle flavor was very strong and delicious. At first I thought the crispy ham was too salty, but it was balanced out really well by the freshness of the veggies & the creaminess of the camembert. I found myself craving it again after a few hours! For a huge focaccia sandwich, the price isn't bad at all.

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.

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.

She explained that the kitchen was open for dinner and to return after 3. Based on the Google reviews, I did just that. When I returned, the original waitress was no longer there but a wonderful woman who spoke English and French made me feel very welcome, translated the menu and made suggestions. I asked her to choose a wine for me and 2 tapas plates. They were both amazing. The service was 10 stars, for English, Spanish and French speakers. She also suggested sites around the city and was super helpful in selecting a wine. Great place!

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!

It is a very cute, yet small eatery located in a trendy part of Marseille. There are a total of three tables inside and several tables outside. The team running Mexicaine a Marseille is super chill and speaks English if needed. The menu is limited but simple. What I liked the most was that they provide quesadillas, burritos, salads, and tacos in meat, vegetarian, and vegan options. There are plenty of choices to be had. Every option has fresh ingredients. TIP 1: Skip the nachos, the guacamole is pretty good for being made in France, but the chip with melted shredded cheese is not the same as melted liquid cheese. If you order a drink, grab it from the fridge and let the cashier know at the end when it is time to pay what drinks you had. TIP 2: The benches and tables inside are seated high. If you or the accompanying diners have limited mobility, I recommend eating outside on the patio. This place gets busy. There are a lot of pickup and delivery orders, but it adds to its charm and reputation. While it may not be a taqueria from Guadalajara, the team makes every effort to bring some Mexican flavors and tastes to France.

Sadly his credit card machine did not work for us so bring cash as back up just in case. When we got home we dug into our food... Still warm from the walk.. And perfect for the night. Great flavor and with using the grill to press our meals...the tortilla had a nice crisp end to it. If you're in the area and want something different than the ordinary French cuisine. Come here!
