Fantastic seafood restaurant serving the best and freshest of catches. Meat/steak options too if seafood isn’t your thing. We overheard other guests’ interactions with staff and discovered that there are vegetarian/gluten/dairy free accommodations available too should you require. We enjoyed the best mussels gratin ever (huge juicy, tasty and meaty mussels bathed in high quality tasty parsley&garlic butter topped with crisp breadcrumbs) and great calamari (perfectly crisp and lightly battered in well seasoned gram/chickpea flour served with mixed salad) as starters and then a wonderful fish of the day (today being sea bass; de-boned and served as two fillets along with a good portion of clams also served with a generous amount of vegetable and potato gratin sides) and one of the best seafood risottos we’ve ever had (stuffed full of squid, clams, 2 enormous prawns, so succulent and naturally sweet, cooked in a sublime seafood stock and delicious freshly milked cuttlefish ink, not from a sachet). Generous portions, good service (with staff speaking both French and English) and good wine. Complementary Limoncello served after the meal. Limited (4 white, 4 rose and 4 red) but superb quality wine selection. No tap water option or complementary carafe of tap water available. €6 charged for bottled mineral/fizzy water. Good quiet location on a pretty street off the main touristy quay. Pleasant outdoor seating in hot and sunny Cassis. Inside looks a little dated and dark. Toilet facilities ie cubicle (singular) is very basic, alas, but not bad. Recommendable for food and service. Booking in advance recommended
Excellent address! We were 3 vegetarians including one person allergic to gluten and the restaurateur/service was able to adapt with a smile and fresh, seasonal and well-cooked products, not to mention the very popular children's menu. That's what we call a professional! You can go there with your eyes closed and a light heart.
Had a fantastic lunch for an 85th birthday today. Was excellent from start to finish , the food was superbe , complemented by a very professional staff all who spoke great English and made us feel very relaxed and welcome. My mother has to eat gluten free which was dealt with perfectly - she had expertly modified versions of everyone elses plates which were every bit as delicious. As for the setting , it is just magnificent. Would definitely recommend this wonderful experience.
I ordered the swordfish with a side of pasta, but since I am gluten free I asked if the side of pasta could be replaced with the risotto.I was told there are absolutely no changes to the menu....well it was really a pasta dish with small, cubed and what appeard to be precut frozen swordfish pieces due to its chewiness along with a few olives and sauce..... totally underwhelmed! The service and atmosphere were really great..but the food was very disappointing.
