The story

An institutionin Cassis

For over sixty years, this bistro has been part of the harbour. Three generations, three hands, one shared wish: that you leave here having truly enjoyed yourself.

Three generations

  1. 1962

    The opening

    Nino opens « Le Nino Restaurant » on the harbour. Simple cooking, the sea on every plate.

  2. 1990

    The handover

    His son takes over. The spirit lives on — Le Nino Restaurant becomes a local institution.

  3. 2021

    A new chapter

    Marine takes over Le Nino Restaurant and renames it «Le Bistrot de Nino» — a tribute to the one who started it all.

« When you leave here truly happy, I feel fulfilled. »

Homard rôti sur linguine au pesto — pièce signature du Bistrot de Nino

The signature gesture

Whole fish,at your table.

We choose together. You see the whole fish first — often a sea bass, a sea bream, a John Dory, depending on the catch. It is cooked à la minute, then filleted in front of you. Not in the kitchen. At the table, freshly served.

« The gesture is half the taste. »
