    (Translated by Google) I went there to have tea with some friends, how to put it ... the welcome was most unpleasant! We were seated on a remote table on the "official" terrace, well yes, for tea, we deserve neither attention nor politeness. The waiter was very rude. We decided to leave the premises without taking an order. In conclusion, to be well received, you have to spend well. A good hearer. (Original) J'y suis allée pour prendre un thé avec des amies, comment dire... l'accueil était des plus désagréables! On nous a installées sur une table reculée de la terrasse "officielle", bein oui, pour un thé, on ne mérite ni attention, ni politesse. Le serveur était très désagréable. Nous avons décidé de quitter les lieux sans prendre commande. En conclusion, pour être bien accueillis, il faut bien dépenser. A bon entendeur.

    (Translated by Google) Restaurant not to be recommended. The uncooked sea bream. The uncooked chicken tagine the chicken was still bleeding. Poor service. Thawed fruit I had gastro for 2 days. I'm not used to breaking restaurant owners but when you put down € 100 you expect to eat fresh produce. Especially when you have a view of the port of Marseille. (Original) Restaurant à déconseiller. La daurade pas cuite. Le tagine au poulet pas cuit le poulet saignait encore. Service médiocre. Fruits décongelés j'ai eu la gastro pendant 2 jours. Je n'ai pas l'habitude de casser les restaurateurs mais quand on pose 100€ on s'attend à manger des produits frais. Surtout quand on a vue sur le port de Marseille .

    (Translated by Google) Service much too slow, we had to call the waiter after 30 minutes because he still had not taken our orders Then we waited 1 hour to receive our dishes which were not cooked at all (I had chicken and meat kebabs and my friends had fish) The food is not tasty at all, I didn't like it at all and the same for my friends, the quantities are less and the prices are high for what it is. I'm not really picky when it comes to food but it was way too bad, (Original) Service beaucoup trop lent, on a du interpeller le serveur au bout de 30 minutes car il avait toujours pas pris nos commandes Puis nous avons attendu 1h pour recevoir nos plats qui n’étaient pas cuits du tout (j’ai pris des brochettes poulet et viande et mes amies ont pris du poisson) Les plats ne sont pas savoureux du tout, je n’ai pas aimé du tout et de même pour mes amies, les quantités sont moindres et les prix sont élevés pour ce que c’est. Je ne suis vraiment pas difficile en terme de nourriture mais la c’était beaucoup trop catastrophique,

    (Translated by Google) People who have rated this restaurant more than 2 stars by mentioning that the couscous is good have probably never eaten anything other than pasta with butter because everything is bland, undercooked, too salty & tasteless. Even a canned couscous tastes better. only one correct server. The bald waiter is VERY VERY Rude. I just hope I don't get sick. (Original) Les gens qui ont noté ce restaurant plus de 2 étoiles en mentionnant que le couscous est bon n’ont sûrement jamais mangé autre chose que des pâtes au beurre car tout est fade, pas assez cuit, trop salé & sans saveur. Même un couscous en boîte est plus goûtu. un seul serveur correcte. Le serveur chauve est TRÈS TRÈS IMPOLI. J’espère juste que je ne vais pas être malade.

    As regular travelers to Marrakech, we found this restaurant very disappointing. It took a very long time to get service, the kefta tasted barely spiced, the vegetarian tagine similarly lacked flavor and the vegetables were overcooked. The wine was passable and should have cost less or been better. If I had known it was in the port, I wouldn't have booked it as most of the restaurants in the port seem to thrive on location rather than food.

    Go to this place for amazing food!! The chicken tajine melts in your mouth, the couscous is delicious, the desserts are even better... And the price is more than fair!! Don't hesitate to stop by LE Souk for a taste of exotic flavors in Marseille!!

  • 5/5 Apollo Z. 4 years ago on Google
    Very nice briques and sweet and savory tajines were exquisite too. The mint tea was very traditional taste. Good place to go!

  • 5/5 Aleksandra G. 2 years ago on Google
    🍑 I had some Couscous Agneau and some Ksar, Marocain rosé produced by Zniber family at the foot of the Atlas mountains. All of that delicious and generous, in taste and in quantity. To share or not! Next time - Tajine.

  • 5/5 Sarah H. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious meal. We shared a couscous dish and tagine which were both great. Good location very close to the port.

  • 5/5 Charlie P. 9 months ago on Google
    Really great place to try Moroccan food. Vegetarian options also on the menu! Fast and friendly service and a nice location next to the port. Would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 Aleksandar A. 9 months ago on Google
    Fantastic dining experience in Marseille. Mathew was so fast very pleasant and super friendly. Food very delicious and authentic.

  • 5/5 Daniel M. 10 months ago on Google
    Delicious and authentic Moroccan food with unlimited couscous and vegetable broth, so if you’re hungry, don’t worry! Staff was nice and the location is great, would definitely come back

  • 5/5 Steve H. 9 months ago on Google
    Very nice dinner on our first night in Marseille. Eating outdoors was wonderful. My wife and I both had tajines, she the lamb with artichokes and myself the fish. Both were wonderful with real deep flavors. Just like being in Morocco. Service was good and nicely paced—dinner took about an hour and a half. Finished off with mint tea

  • 5/5 Alexandra T. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous place! Absolutely delicious food and the service is top notch!

  • 5/5 Brian F. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are in Marseille make sure that one of the evenings you eat here. It's a restaurant that specialises in North African food. The staff are great and very attentive and the food is out of this world. The way they do lamb is incredible. Also they do Merques sausage which is also amazing. Finally try the Algerian wine which comes very warm but crazily it adds to the flavour.

  • 5/5 Anka S. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited this restaurant as locals recommend us and we do not regret our decision despite of few bad reviews I have read. 1. The Service was excellent, they did not speak much of english but we were able to manage, they kindly gave us an option for the English menu which we could access by QR code as well as they recommend us what we should try for appetizers. 2. The food was delicious, we didn't wait too much for it, I loved their way of serving on the traditional plates. I loved how hot the food was when brought to us. The deserts as well were delicious. (writing this review one day later just to confirm there was no problem such as food poison as I read other reviews, we are all good) 3. Location of the restaurant is beautiful, sitting outside you have great ambience. 4. The downside would be the toilet I would say as there was one open which you could use (which I didn't as it didn't look quite clean) TIP: you must try their mint tea, is phenomenal, such great aroma, it completes the whole meal :) Would recommend for you to try, great food, nice experience!

  • 5/5 Janis M. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent! Reserved easily online. Food was delicious authentic north african meals. Service was friendly, responsive, efficient. Streetside terrace delightfil.

  • 5/5 Stella 2 years ago on Google
    Delicious dishes, a nice atmosphere and the waiters were very kind and courteous!

  • 1/5 Bogdan S. 2 years ago on Google
    Dirty location and very bad food. The prices are insane for what's offered.

  • 5/5 Nicola L. 2 years ago on Google
    Lamb tagine - 4.5 stars Delicious savoury flavours. The lamb didn't taste gamey at all and was tender and flaked off easily. Reminded me of beef rendang. The aubergine was smokey and absolutely delicious. A warm hearty stew perfect in winter. Vegetable couscous - 4.25 stars The vegetable soup was flavourful. Also perfect on a cold day. Friendly service!

  • 5/5 Ralph N. 1 year ago on Google
    As a tourist who has also been to Morocco, I can say that Le Souk is the real deal. It’s on the port where you have a view of Notre Dame if you sit on the terrace. For the appetizers, we got the three meat pastries which we would recommend. We then ate a royal couscous and a lamb tagline with prunes and almonds. If we were to restart, we would not get the couscous. We got the assortment of Moroccan pastries for dessert but should have gotten another option.

  • 4/5 Antoine B. 5 years ago on Google
    Slow service but very good food. Slata mechouia a tad bland though. Briks were filled and tasty.

  • 5/5 Shrestha G. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing lamb maison and fish tagine.

  • 4/5 reuben c. 3 years ago on Google
    Great tagines, reasonable prices. Slightly disturbed by smoke from neighbouring tables and that we had to ask for additional bread / couscous. Overall a lovely night.

  • 4/5 A.M. K. 4 years ago on Google
    We had a good lunch under the canopy on a very hot day by the sea. Tagines a solid option, though not as good as foundat ChouChou in Paris. There are so many options along the promenade, Le Souk is a decent one to try.

  • 4/5 Philipe Rodrigo l. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Very good oriental cuisine waitresses waiters friendly boss parking lot except on the port while waiting to embark the truck on the boat on the old port very well (Original) Très bonne cuisine orientale serveuses serveurs patron sympa pa de parking sauf sur le port en attendant d'embarquer le camion sur le bateau sur le vieux port très bien

  • 5/5 michael s. 4 years ago on Google
    If you are looking for an African infleunced meal in Marseilles, you will find it here. The flavourful tajines take you back to a souk in Morocco. The staff are kind and the service quick. We had a baby with us and the staff were very accomodating. They allowed us to change tables as people around us started smoking. (Not good for babies!) We would come here again without a doubt.

  • 3/5 Travelling T. 5 years ago on Google
    Staff were excellent, portions aren't huge, slightly disappointed with the chicken tagine, on the bone.... lots of bones! Small amount of potatoes. Complimentary bread which was very generous but also salty. No draught beer. Complimentary water. Wouldn't return.

  • 3/5 Lakshmi J. 4 years ago on Google
    Food was delicious? We ordered coucous mouton and coucous meatballs. Everything was yummy. Service - it depends! While one monsieur was super-annoying, non-welcoming, in a hurry (for what?) and a bit lost(??Drunk??), the other was super nice.

  • 5/5 Shay- C. 4 years ago on Google
    The lamb tagine was amazing. And the mint tea!

  • 1/5 Goutam D. 4 years ago on Google
    Worst food ever taken!! The seafood is not good. Lamb was extremely dry. Dorado fish was not properly cooked. Shrimp was bad. Feel like vomiting after taking food here. Vacation is ruined. I am surprised how come this has a 4.1 rating!! Never ever recommend anyone here.

  • 4/5 Nick P. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious cous cous meal with loads of meat, a kind of vegetable stew, chick peas and spicy sauce. Easy enough to share and only €22. Amazing value. The tagine was tiny by comparison ??‍♂️

  • 5/5 Lexy D. 4 years ago on Google
    The best couscous I’ve ever had! Portions are big and so are the flavors. Absolutely delicious!

  • 4/5 Jenny V. 5 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 meriem n. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Horrible welcome !! The young waiter was rude I have never seen that, anyway we sat at the table for 2 minutes we did not even order we left immediately. Sir, it is time to change jobs, because you have no sense of commerce !! (Original) Accueil horrible !! Le jeune serveur était d'une impolitesse je n'ai jamais vu ça, de toute façon on s'est assis a table 2 min on a même pas commandé on est parti aussitôt. Monsieur, il serait temps de changer de métier, car vous n'avez aucun sens du commerce !!

    Pour les friands de plats orientaux. Le Souk est parfait ?

  • 3/5 Nesm 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is very expensive. 2 out of 3 waiters are fine while the other drinks during the service and he is unpleasant like the boss (Original) C'est très cher. 2 serveur sur 3 sont bien tandis que l autre boît pendant le service et il est désagréable comme le patron

  • 1/5 lam L. 3 years ago on Google
    Je deconseille vivement cet etablissement. Les plats ne sont pas frais et en plus sans saveur. On rechauffe les plats de la veille ou avant veille sur les quelle on rajoute une garniture pour mimer du fais minute.... le gout n est pas au rdv et apparament on s en fou royalement.... du moment qu on encaisse. Voila la politique de ce restaurant. Bref je deconseille et apparament je ne suis pas la seule...

    (Translated by Google) unpleasant welcome at the price of the dishes ... you have to think about doing a cooking and management training! Go your way ... with a good hearing. (Original) accueil désagréable au prix des plats... il faut penser à faire une formation cuisine et management !!! Passez votre chemin... à bon entendeur.

  • 4/5 Maya S. 3 years ago on Google
    We were recommended the place, booked online at 19h the same day, and at 20.30h indeed the table was waiting for us. Super delicious food! We had the formula of starter and main course. The mains we chose were couscous with mergez, and tajine with lamb and pears. Everything was so delicious! Definitely one of the tenderest lambs I have ever had, and such a nice combination with the pears. The mint tea is also worth having as it nicely complements the food. Recommend the place.

  • 1/5 Imane El m. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) This restaurant should close the doors !! And do a real training in Moroccan, oriental cuisine !!! Between the wait and the arrival of the dish not even cooked my skewers were bland and not cooked! The chicken tagine no flavors I think it was cooked in salt, pepper and coloring !!!!! Not to mention the price !!!! Brief disappointed (Original) Ce restaurant devrait fermer les portes !! Et faire une vrai formation de cuisine marocaine , orientale !!! Entre l'attente et l arrivé du plat même pas cuit mes brochettes etait fade pas cuite ! Le tajine de poulet aucunes saveurs je pense que sa était cuit au sel poivre et colorant !!!!! Sans parler du tarif !!!! Breff déçu

    (Translated by Google) I strongly advise against this psodo Moroccan restaurant. the servers are of a professionalism to be deplored, the boss pulls the face. my son had severe gastroenteritis. it is a real tourist trap. I strongly advise against it.

  • 2/5 Sachin C. 3 years ago on Google
    The location, decor and service is excellent. Unfortunately the food made me sick and I wasnt going to comment negatively on this since I have a weak stomach, but then my misses also got sick. We believe its the Brick, which was dripping in oil, its normally a oily heavy dish but shouldn't be dripping from oil.
