Flavours of the sea

Fresh shellfish and seafoodin the heart of Cassis

On Cassis harbour, Le Bistrot de Nino puts the produce of the sea centre stage. Our shellfish and seafood are chosen for their freshness and prepared simply, in the Mediterranean tradition that made the house's reputation. Here, you come for the honest taste of the sea, in a friendly atmosphere inherited from three generations of restaurateurs.

The whole fish, presented then filleted in front of you at the table, remains our signature. It naturally accompanies a menu turned towards the flavours of the sea, where shellfish and seafood find their full place. Every plate tells the bond between Le Bistrot de Nino and Cassis harbour, its fishermen and its very particular light.
