Fresh Seafood in the Heart of the Port of Cassis

Set on the Quai Jean-Jacques Barthélemy, Le Bistrot de Ninot has celebrated seafood and fresh fish since 1962. Every day, the selection reflects the catch and the deliveries, in the spirit of simple and generous Mediterranean cuisine. Guests come for the freshness of the produce as much as for the harbour atmosphere, among fishing boats and colourful facades.

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 port. It is 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.

Seafood and Shellfish Platters to Share

The seafood platter remains one of the great classics of the house: shellfish and crustaceans carefully arranged, to enjoy for two or to share around the table. Briny and generous, they pair perfectly with a sea-view terrace and a glass of white wine from Cassis. Our team advises you according to your tastes and the day's delivery, for a gourmet break faithful to the Provençal tradition.

Whole Fish Filleted Before You at the Table

At Le Bistrot de Ninot, the fresh catch of the day is presented whole before being filleted right before your eyes, at the table. This gesture, passed down through three generations, showcases the quality of the produce and extends the pleasure of the meal. It is a signature of the house, loved by our guests and by the many visitors discovering Cassis in search of an authentic fresh-fish table on the port.

A Sea-View Terrace, the Largest in Cassis

Our seafood restaurant enjoys the largest terrace in Cassis, shaded and open onto the port and the sea. Here you can savour platters, shellfish and fresh fish in a relaxed atmosphere, with pets welcome on the terrace. To extend your stay, the Maison de Nino offers accommodation right above the restaurant, a short walk from the calanques and the village.
