The 13008, where Marseille opens onto the sea
The 8th arrondissement gathers the Prado and its beaches, Bonneveine, Roucas Blanc, Périer, Escale Borély, Mazargues and Pointe Rouge. A district of seafront walks, marinas and calanques on the horizon.
Looking for a restaurant here means looking for a table facing the water, honest Mediterranean cooking and the golden evening light over the harbour. That is exactly the address l'Estéou keeps, at the end of Avenue de la Pointe Rouge.
A warm dining room, a terrace on the harbour
The sea on one side, the Pointe Rouge marina on the other: l'Estéou holds one of the finest viewpoints in the 13008. The terrace sits a few metres from the water, with string lights on as soon as night falls.
Inside, colourful banquettes and a black-metal bar carry the experience on when the season turns. One place for a shaded lunch, an aperitif facing the open sea or a dinner that lingers.
What makes a good table in the 13008
The sea as a backdrop
In the 8th, the best table faces the water. l'Estéou's terrace opens onto the Pointe Rouge harbour and its boats.
A menu that follows the catch
Whole grilled fish, red tuna, seafood: the selection changes with the arrivals, freshness writes the board.
The spirit of the South
Olive oil, citrus, herbs and wood-fired pizzas: clean, generous cooking, made for sharing.
The golden hour
When the sun dips over Pointe Rouge
Midday belongs to the bright seafront light; the evening, to the golden hour falling over the harbour. The aperitif stretches out, a seafood platter is shared, and dinner settles in without anyone noticing the time — Tuesday to Saturday (Sunday: 12pm-2pm), from 10am to midnight.
Fish, seafood and wood fire
The signature remains the whole grilled fish — sea bream, sea bass or John Dory depending on the catch — served with a drizzle of olive oil and citrus. Around it, red tuna tartares and carpaccios, seafood platters and wood-fired pizzas make up a menu built for sharing.
