Le Chalet du Pharo

CASH ONLY! No cards! Beautiful setting and view of the Old Port and Museum. Walk thru the park and go down path to restaurant. Lunch was excellent. Stracciatella salad and Sea Bass tasted amazing. Staff was helpful and gave me the English menu :) Can quickly make reservations online. Take your time and enjoy the view! ATM cash machine outside park about 400m walk.

Incredible view of the entire city of Marseille. Food is good but you're really going to this place for the view and the atmosphere. Service is friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend checking this place out for a romantic dinner.

Amazing view on the old port from the restaurant. Food was good and portion was perfect. The fish needed more seasoning as it was tasteless but the whole plate was good. They told us that they only take reservations but yet were too nice to accept us. I recommend giving this place a visit

Fantastic view. Nice place to see the port. Fast service and the dishes are fresh. Only curious fact, you have to pay in cash.

Location is uuuh...sublime, yes that's the word. The view is really beautiful, staff were happy and friendly and the food was delicious. Highly recommended.

CASH ONLY PLACE Lunch was an amazing experience - great views and fresh seafood. Really had an enjoyable time but was caught off guard by it being a cash only place. Travelling from Paris, we were way too reliant on our cards, we ended lunch on a sour note of trying to find a cash point nearby. Perhaps it is more common in Marseille but I’m surprised to find out that I have no other payment options.

Superb view , nice wine, perfect cocktail , very good dessert .

Perfection. Hidden away and with a view over the dock. The food was near a religious experience. Service was fast and with humour and style.

Magnificent so special, the views and the service were impeccable. Such a beautifully presented dinner.

Le Chalet du Pharo is an impressive historical building (commissioned by Napoleon III in the 1850s) with beautiful views of the harbor. We attended a group dinner of over 100 people there. Service was very slow, seems they didn't have the necessary staff to handle a large group. Food was so so, and ventilation was lacking as we ate inside on a warm evening. I would try them again on my own if in the area, and would request an outdoor table.

View was absolutely stunning. Food was above average. Service was beyond slow and locals seemed to get the tables with better views. Prices a bit inflated due to the view. Cash only:-(

Outstanding drinks and view. This is a trip all the way out here. It's tucked in a corner beneath the Palais de Pharo so it might be a little bit difficult to find. I also recommend making reservations. We both ordered cocktails - aperollete and clover club - and started with the octopus salad. Our host ordered cuttlefish for us, which was not that great. It was similar to calamari and not super special. If we could've ordered for ourselves we would've gotten the ravioli with Parmesan sauce which was the special. It is cash only.

Excellent prixe-fix menu and wonderful wine. The location and view are inspiring. Remember to bring cash -- no cards. Enjoy!

Good place, outside, in le Pharo, just below the garden, with a nice view on Le Vieux Port. Quite good food, nice staff. Book in advance.
