They make their own homemade salsa and hot sauce. (Hot sauce is spicy - WARNING but very good) Love their passion fruit margarita. We got a pitcher for 3 adults and it was perfect. We ordered the trio tacos that were amazing especially the barbaccoa. The quesadillas were top notch with fresh ingredients. I highly recommend this restaurant as it is off the main paths and only open in the evenings but such a hidden gem.

This place is sooo soo good. It is located right by the port so you get amazing views. Plus, it…read moreisn't too crowded because it is located on the second floor of this hotel. 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.

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.

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.

JL and I learned about the meaning behind the name while visiting this lovely shop. The share of the angels is the part of the volume of alcohol that evaporates during the aging in the cask. We had a lovely bottle of Criennes Rose and a couple of Le Temps des cerises. My heart still aches about customs confiscating the latter bottle. It was just so damn good. Oh well, another excuse to come back :) Eat, drink, be merry and enjoy!
