Wood-fired pizza, right by the sea
At Pointe Rouge, l'Estéou pairs artisan pizza with the seafront: dough worked by hand, baked in a wood-fired oven, Mediterranean produce and a terrace open onto the harbour. Real Marseille pizza, to savour without rushing.
Pizza, the seafront way
Finding a good pizza in Marseille is easy enough. Enjoying it facing the harbour, on a terrace, at sunset, is rarer. At Pointe Rouge, l'Estéou brings the two together: dough kneaded on site, baked in a wood-fired oven, and a view that makes all the difference.
Here, pizza is no fallback dish: it sits alongside grilled fish and red-tuna tartares in a proudly Mediterranean menu. The result lives in a thin, crisp crust, generously topped with fresh produce.
What makes our pizzas different
- A wood-fired bake that gives the dough its crunch and its unmistakable smoky aromas.
- Artisan dough worked on site with a slow proof, for a thin, easy-to-digest crust.
- Seasonal toppings — burrata, anchovies, sun-dried tomatoes, pesto — following the Mediterranean market.
- A seafront terrace at Pointe Rouge, minutes from central Marseille and easy to reach.

From the wood-fired oven to the terrace
Wood-fired
Every pizza goes into the wood oven: a fierce heat that sets the dough in minutes, puffs up the edges and concentrates the flavour of the topping.
Signature pizzas
Pesto and burrata, anchovies and sun-dried tomatoes, olives and rocket: our recipes draw on the best of the South, between Neapolitan tradition and a Marseille accent.
To share on the terrace
Set in the middle of the table, a pizza brings friends together over a glass, with the garlands lit and the harbour as a backdrop.
The full meal
A pizza never comes alone: start with a tartare or a platter, finish with a homemade dessert, and turn your pizza into a real dinner by the sea.
When the terrace becomes the best spot in Marseille
In late afternoon, the light gilds the harbour, the garlands come on and the wood oven is in full swing. It's the perfect hour for a pizza on the terrace: you share, you toast, the evening settles in gently, almost with your feet in the sand.
A Mediterranean menu built around pizza
At l'Estéou, pizza sits alongside whole grilled fish, red-tuna tartares and sashimi, seafood platters and pasta. You build your meal as you like: a pizza for a quick lunch on the terrace, or a full Mediterranean menu from start to finish.
Special diets, vegetarian wishes, a table of children: the house adapts. Tell us your preferences when booking, and we'll make sure everyone finds their share from the oven.

Are the pizzas wood-fired?

Of course. Several pizzas on the menu are vegetarian — pesto and burrata, southern vegetables, sun-dried tomatoes and rocket. Let us know any allergies when ordering.
Can you eat a pizza on the terrace facing the sea?
That's the whole spirit of l'Estéou: our terrace looks straight out over the Pointe Rouge harbour. In fine weather and at sunset, it's best to book to be well seated.
