Coquille Review - 1st Arr. - Marseille - The Infatuation
"Live out your your French Riviera vacation dream with a seafood tower and a glass of rosé at Coquille, a block from Vieux Port. On the cooked side are mussels, always, and grilled fish like tuna or hake with asparagus or sweet potato mousseline. The decor is cheeky-chic—think marble tables with wood and rattan chairs, blue and white striped banquettes, and a wall-size tile mural of crustaceans in hats. There’s well-shaded patio seating, an indoor-outdoor front area, and a dining room at the back where you can watch pizzas going into the flaming oven. If you’re looking for a place to try Marseille’s exclusive pizza style, called the moitié-moitié—half cheese (mozzarella with a bit of emmental) and half anchovy, both studded with black olives—this is it. After exhaustive research, we can assure you that this is the best moitié-moitié in the city." - Sophie Friedman
