Freshness first
Our crustaceans and shellfish arrive with the tides. What matters is the day's produce — never the other way around.
Seafood · Pointe Rouge
A seafood restaurant in Marseille, right by the sea
At Pointe Rouge, l'Estéou serves seafood platters, shellfish and crustaceans in tune with the daily catch, a stone's throw from the water.
The spirit of the sea
The seafood platter, a Mediterranean pause
At l'Estéou, seafood isn't a fixed menu but a daily rendez-vous with the tide. Oysters, brown crab, prawns, whelks and shellfish are plated to order, depending on what the sea offers that very day.
It is all enjoyed on the terrace at 1 Avenue de la Pointe Rouge, in the 8th district of Marseille — a platter to share, a glass of chilled white and the Mediterranean right in front of you.
What makes the difference at l'Estéou
- Seafood platters plated to order, according to the daily catch.
- Shellfish and crustaceans: oysters, brown crab, prawns, whelks, langoustines.
- A terrace facing the sea, steps from Pointe Rouge beach.
- Homemade Mediterranean cuisine, fish delivered and prepared every morning.
- Easy booking and a warm welcome, Tuesday to Sunday until midnight.
In tune with the sea
A seafood platter, facing the sunset
Settle onto the terrace as the sun drops over the bay. For the length of a platter, the table becomes a stopover: salt, lemon, sea spray and the gentle lapping of Pointe Rouge nearby.
