Le Rhul

I can only review the restaurant. The bouillabaisse is indeed delicious and a very filling portion. Two person minimum on ordering it. We called to reserve it, but even after we went, not entirely sure if we needed too, but I guess it would be safe too make a reservation for the bouillabaisse. The place was pretty empty on a Sunday evening, so the food came quick. Everything seemed of a good quality and the crouton and sauce on the side was plentiful. Service was very attentive too. Not entirely sure it’s worth the price (70-ish per person), except as a special occasion.

Reviewing only the restaurant. Had the fisherman’s bouillabaisse and it was really good. Service was kind and attentive, maybe only a tad bit rushed at the end of the meal but in all fairness we took it slow. Loved the fact the bouillabaisse soup comes as all you can refill. Would recommend it.

We had a wonderful dinner at Le Rhul testaurant this evening to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The Bouillabaisse was superb making for a fabulous dining experience. We had a table overlooking the sea with a fine view of the sun set! The wines, desserts and the service provided by the very professional and knowledgeable staff added to our memorable evening. Thank you Le Rhul

The waiting time is long ( super long) and we waited more than 30 minutes. The meals might be good but I might not have finished my plate because the smell was bad and I tried some other food but they weren’t good and the rice has no taste so I don’t recommend it. I waited for water but they only brought it when we said. The restaurant is looking expensive and fancy so you might want to come here. The location is hard to come with a car but the view is perfect. I tried raw meat and I didn’t like it so much. I tried dessert after and it looked small but it was actually big. The staff are very friendly and they prepare your seats well.

The best bouillabaisse in my life! Came here last Saturday for the second time after three years. We just took homemade foie gras for starter and then bouillabaisse as the main course. And a bottle of champagne of course 😁 Perfect seafood and seaview. Strongly recommended

This review is for the restaurant only. Had an extremely disappointing meal that cost close to 400 euros for 3 people. I wish we had read the Google reviews first. The kitchen really needs someone who cares about food and cares about quality in charge. My gambas were overcooked and rubbery in an oily sauce that separated when it sat on the plate. The bouillabasse was cold by the time the fish came to table. Just leave it in the pot, don't serve it and then make people wait for the fish. The chiparones were the best dish, but it wasn't clear from the menu description that it was a fried dish, just like the fried cuttlefish so we ordered both and had basically two of the same thing. (I've had chiparones before that were stuffed and sauteed, and that's what I thought we had ordered). Dessert was ok. The strawberry pastry tasted like it had sat out too long. The flan was fine, but like something my grandmother might have cooked.I understand tradition, but the menu needs a refresh and reset with someone with imagination and vision in control. The service was friendly and attentive. That was the best part of the meal. The view is beautiful.

This was a quirky style hotel with modern amenities, fantastic staff, and the room service breakfast served on the private terrace each morning was a joy! We absolutely loved the location just off the beaten path nestled in a neighborhood. Easy walk to many great restaurants, bakeries, and shops. Great value for the money. Things to be aware of (didn't bother us but could be an issue): 1. There is air conditioning, but it's governed at a temp just cooler than outside in July... so the room was warm even with air. 2. No elevators, so up the steps to the hotel built into a hillside and then to the room. For us, this added to charm but could be an accessibility issue.

Very good bouillabaisse, nice waiters, amazing view and good espresso!

Without much reference for what a good bouillabaisse is, we went to Le Rhul based off of a recommendation. What we found was a nice little restaurant part of a hotel that had a great view of the Mediterranean Sea and the sunset. What followed was a delicious, albeit a bit pricy, meal of fresh seafood. We ordered the shrimp appetizer, the lobster and scallops (not pictured) and the bouillabaisse. The shrimp + lobster and scallops were fine. Nicely flavored and not too salty, though the portions were a bit small. The prices were around €20 and €42 respectively which were probably a bit pricier than we would have liked for what we got but the flavors were fine. The bouillabaisse was definitely the star. For 1 order of €68 we were given 4 bowls of soup (with hot refills) and a plate of fresh seafood that were the base ingredients of the soup. It was hearty, filling, and delicious. We had two members in our party who are pretty sensitive to the briny-ness of seafood yet they were able to fully enjoy the soup. It went perfectly with the bread and Cassis half bottle of wine that we ordered. All in all the meal came out to be about €180 for a party of 4 which was much more expensive than other meals we had in Marseille yet we did not walk away feeling like it wasn't worth it.

Incredible view of the Golfe de Marseille and the Anse de la Fausse Monaie (a quaint cove with swimming off the rocks). Note that all of the properties facing Corniche du Président John Fitzgerald Kennedy will have a bit of road noise, as it's a busy street, but still extremely lovely. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Easily accessible to the Metro and Vieux-Port via the bus which comes every 10 minutes.

We ordered bouillabaisse with lobster (76 Eros) and without lobster (65 euros). Our meal was overpriced, not delicious and the overall dining experience not pleasant. The fish soup arrived before the fish and we were advised to have it first. The fish was then presented at the table before it was removed to be placed in bowls for serving. The presentation looked great. When the fish arrived the soup had cooled off and the fish was not hot. There were several pieces of fish and three pieces of potato. Some fish pieces were inedible because they were tough and filled with bones The only shell fish were two muscles and a tiny little crab that was too small to open. For that price, it seems reasonable for us to have expected a generous portion of fish and a variety of shellfish. The wait staff was not gracious. When we told our waitress that we were disappointed we got a blank stare and she said nothing. As we left I told the woman at the door that we were unhappy. She shrugged and walked away, without saying anything. A simple apology would have been appropriate. We were left with the distinct impression that because did not order starters, had one glass of wine and a beer we were not regarded as fancy enough to be treated graciously. We are visiting this spectacular part of the world from New York City on a two week trip that canceled in 2020 during Covid. Apparently even experienced restauranteurs can lose sight of a restaurant's primary business mission -making guests feel welcome and appreciated while serving generous portions of delicious food. That did not happen here.

Awful. One star because my wife's sole was good and chocolate dessert too. Bouillabaisse a disappointment; no seasoning, rouille had no flavor. And scales are a big no no. Service was deplorable. I had made reservation in French but since we spoke English they assumed we were Brits (we are American) and they apparently don't like Brits. We did not get any points getting a bottle of wine even though French speaking people around us drank juice with their meals! The bottle was out of our reach and we constantly had to ask for refills. We were done in an hour when usually it takes us a couple hours. Nobody ever asked us how are meal was, not even when paying. I guess they know they serve crap and have lousy service!
