At the heart of the harbour
Fresh seafoodat the heart of Cassis harbour
Set on Quai Jean-Jacques Barthélemy, Le Bistrot de Nino has celebrated seafood and fresh fish since 1962. Each day, the selection reflects the catch and the delivery, in the spirit of a simple and generous Mediterranean cuisine. People come as much for the freshness of the produce as for the harbour atmosphere, between fishing boats and colourful façades.
Whether you are a Cassis regular, here for the day or on holiday in the region, our seafood restaurant welcomes you in the front row of the harbour. It's the ideal address for lunch facing the sea or dinner at sunset, in a setting that stays true to the family spirit of the house.
To share
Platters and shellfishbriny and generous
The seafood platter remains one of the great classics of the house: shellfish and crustaceans arranged with care, to enjoy for two or to share around the table. Briny and generous, they are the perfect match for a sea-view terrace and a glass of white Cassis wine.
Our team advises you according to your cravings and the day's delivery, for a gourmet break faithful to the Provençal tradition. Nothing beats a well-arranged platter, a spritz on the table and the harbour as a backdrop to take your time.

The signature gesture
Whole fishfilleted at your table
At Le Bistrot de Nino, the fresh fish of the day is presented whole before being filleted in front of you, right at the table. This gesture, passed down over three generations, showcases the quality of the produce and prolongs the pleasure of the meal.
It's a signature of the house, loved by our regulars as much as by the many visitors who discover Cassis and look for an authentic fresh-fish table on the harbour.
