Poissonnerie Laurent

wonderful service, amazing food- simple and good. mussels were seasoned with garlic to perfection and the salmon steak was thick!

This is a great dinner place for my weekend getaway. They gave us a great sea port view. For English speakers, they do have English menu. Some waiters speaks English, others tried their best and they are all wonderful. Their foods are excellent, beers too. Fresh mussels and fish, cooked perfectly, well seasoned. Their bathroom has cut decor and clean. Overall, it’s one of the friendliest place I visited in France.

hello this restaurant is in a beautiful location and has a beautifully equipped food and beverage menu. All the food we ordered was excellent, and accompanied by free bread and olive oil that was a pleasant surprise. The prices were pretty extravagant, but that is to be expected by the location. The experience was marred however by the quality of service. We were spoken down upon and intimated by the woman appearing to be the hostess, wearing a flowery top. She was insistent upon us each ordering a meal each. Despite having already spent €50 on food and beverages, she deemed this insufficient to warrant our seating at a table. Following a rude discussion, we were begrudgingly permitted to remain at our table, provided we left in a short period of time. We will not be attending this restaurant again. Merci pour votre attention!

It's not worth the money. The fish soup is so-so. They don't allow packing. I won't come again and won't recommend it to friends.

The setting on the port is nice, of course. But the food quality is not great, some of the worst versions of popular dishes, not as fresh as you would hope. The service also was below expectations for the price: they don't offer to remove the fish bones and they don't offer doggy bags.

The setting and staff are nice, but the food is just not good, though really big portions. It is weird to get these vegetables in a town full of fresh produce. First time getting fries this bad. And no wine by the glass? Have to take 0.5 or a whole bottle. For this price, it is simply very bad.

I ordered supions which are like small calamari. Cassis wine was very good as well

We visited Cassis for a few hours while staying in Marseille. A couple of bar owners and taxi drivers told us we should go. Our bus was delayed by an hour some didn't arrive until gone 2pm, so we were concerned that the restaurants would be closed. Thankfully we found Poissonnerie Laurent. We were warmly welcomed and our waiter was cheerful and helpful with the menu. My wife had Moules Provencal, which came in a huge pot with a tomato sauce, chips and bread. They were big and plump, perhaps because they were baked. I had a Small Bouillabaisse. It's a good job I ordered a small one because it was huge. A plate of potatoes, with mussels and a whole Gurnard plus at least a dozen large croutons, rouilly and grated cheese and a tureen full of soup. The waiter explained how I should eat it, which was helpful. It took an age to eat it because there was so.much, but it was fantastic. I highly recommend the restaurant and the dish. All washed down with a glass or two of local Rose wine which was lovely. A touch of salinity, red fruits, herbs and lovely and off dry. We even had room for a Lemon Meringue tart which came with the most incredible cassis I've cream. The service was prompt, we were never rushed, and the bill came to €105, which was very reasonable for such a fabulous meal great service overlooking the Port. Highly recommend.

You need to understand this place is very busy and if you are looking for special treatment - it isn't on the first time. We went two nights in a row and we struggled to communicate but it was all very well received and all good humour. The food was great; the wait staff quite funny and the man at the front was very on the ball. It feels like a family business. The moules poulette for me were the best thing on the menu. We returned because we liked the food and we liked the staff... a definite must!

This was a terrible restaurant. Bad food and even worse service. If I could give this zero stars, I would. My husband and I went here on a Monday afternoon for lunch. My husband wanted bouillabaisse but they were out. The waiter basically ordered for him. I ordered (in French) the moules Provençales. The waiter said he thinks I should try a different moules dish (I think they were out of what I asked for and this was his way of hiding it). I said ok. Twenty minutes later, it arrived at the table and it was terrible. The mussels were cold and the cream sauce he assured me I'd like was disgusting. I sat there not eating while my husband finished his appetizer. My husband had ordered a salad. After 20 minutes it never came. After another 30 minutes I finally asked for the check. I went to pay for the meals and he asked me if I liked it. I told him not at all and gave him my credit card to pay. He said I didn't have to pay if I didn't like it but I told him I would just like to get out of there asap. He insisted I not pay at which point I put my credit card away and said "fine." At that point he exploded and said we had to pay for what my husband ate. I was like OMG, I tried to pay you. Just take my money so I can leave. As the credit card was processing, he said in English that he'd be happy to have us gone I told him I l'd be happy to leave. At that point he said a gay slang word in French about me to the wait staff and they started laughing. I told him he was a terrible person.

Bad service and bad food. Server was really pushy and wanted us to order in less than a minute of getting the English menu ( we had the French menu first and asked for the English menu). We ordered the daily special since we don't have time to look into the menu. It's the daily catch of the day. The finish came out over cooked and does not have any flavor at all. AVOID this tourist trap.

Such kind and generous service! Came with my husband and 1 yr old and they were exceptionally welcoming. The grilled squid and seam bream were also exceptional!

We had a fantastic meal at this place. Without a reservation, we were lucky enough to go early and secure the last available table. The food was increadible. We have the muscles with garlic and butter, which sounds very simple, but they were amazing. We also had the sea bass and house wine. I would highly recommend this place. Yes, it's not cheap, but if you pick wisely and order house wine, you will get an amazing meal.

Nice location, food is reasonably good. Slightly expensive for what you get. And service is a bit slow.

My wife and I are here on vacation and we chose to stay in this city because we like good food away from tourism. We love all food and we don't have anything holding us back except the language barrier. The waiter spoke some English and recommended a few things for us on the menu. For appetizer We got the mussels in the escargot sauce and Prawns in garlic sauce. Both were exceptional especially the mussels. Anything with garlic oil and fresh herbs makes food that much better. Dip bread in the sauce. For dinner we shared a whole sea bass for two. My theory is this " simple is better" and it was just that. * bring cash they don't accept credit * dessert wine is a light melon after dinner drink free! tasty and very light in alcohol * view of the mountains and ocean is perfect * if you get cold easily bring a light coat WOULD TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE

TERRIBLE!! "Bouillabaisse" is a plate of unidentifiable fishes and seafood next to a bowl of strange flavored broth. Disgusting. Bad service - waitress never checked on us. Steak was gray, thin and flavorless. At end of meal we were told they only accept cash ( only place we've found in this tourist area to not take cards) and they have no ATM. We were told to have my 80 year old mother walk 10 minutes in the rain to use an ATM while we "must stay" at the restaurant as "hostages" until someone of us returned with the money. We offered several types of cards, offered to return with the money in the morning and leave our info, or give American dollars. None were acceptable. We were told by an intimidating man the owner brought out that we could not leave the premises and that he would take our passports until we returned with money. We were not agreeable to this obviously. Then owner called out another brooding man from inside the restaurant and told him to accompany us to the ATM and supervise us withdrawing the cash and to take the cash from us at the ATM. It was extremely mortifying and the entire experience was THE WORST IVE EVER HAD ALL AROUND. AVOID!!!!!!

Had the bouillabaisse with my husband which was an experience. Lovely setting on the water front with great service. Generous portions, overall a lovely meal
