Fresh Fish and Mediterranean Cuisine Facing the Sea

The cuisine at Le Bistrot de Ninot puts fresh fish centre stage. Depending on the catch, whole fish is presented and then filleted before you at the table, a gesture that has been part of our identity since 1962. Mediterranean flavours guide the menu, between seafood and Provençal accents.

Facing the sea, every dish takes on a special dimension: the freshness of the produce echoes the view over the harbour and the cliffs. It is this meeting of plate and landscape that makes our sea view restaurant a benchmark address in Cassis.
