The 21 Best Restaurants In Marseille 2024
"Le Plongeon nails it on all counts. The warm service is accommodating (the prix fixe has no vegetarian mains that day? No problem, you can order two appetizers and they’ll adjust the price). The food—like zucchini velouté with confit lemons and cucumbers, or lightly-seared tuna with grilled squash swimming in fennel purée—is fresh and colorful. The glass-walled dining room is airy and bright, and the big terrace out front, set back from a relatively quiet street and facing a church and blooming bougainvillea, is sunny, even in the winter. Take a seat outdoors and go full vacation-mode with a frozen cucumber cocktail. Reserve if you can, but you shouldn’t have too much trouble walking in if you don’t." - sophie friedman
