Brasserie l'actuel sur Marseille

Excellent dish of the day, crazy homemade cordon bleu

Close to the Palais Longchamp, a brasserie with sophisticated daily specials and some of the best pizzas in town. In the evening, enjoy a lively aperitif with tapas under the plane trees. With attentive staff, you'll have a great time at a more than reasonable price.

We had dinner at this restaurant and were pleasantly surprised. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the location was beautiful, and the food was well-cooked.

We had booked a table through TheFork for 7 p.m. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly, but were told that service wouldn't start for another 15 minutes. While we waited, we ordered two drinks and a carafe of water. Finally, after about 30 minutes, we managed to get the waiter to order. The food arrived quickly but was unfortunately lukewarm. My pizza had a slight aftertaste of slightly off-flavored cheese (perhaps the fior di latte mozzarella?), but it wasn't inedible. The rib-eye steak, on the other hand, was lukewarm and, above all, unseasoned. The service was the main problem: I felt like I was bothering the waiter (sitting at a table near the entrance), empty glasses and menus not cleared, no condiments or seasonings for the meat, and the water carafe had been empty for 15 minutes with no offer of refills. There was also no one to ask if everything was going well. On the other hand, the desserts (crème brûlée and chocolate fondant) were good, and the prices were reasonable, especially with the TheFork discount. In summary: a pleasant welcome and attractive prices, but inattentive service and dishes that weren't hot enough. It's a shame, because the experience could have been much better with a little more care.

Arrived at the end of the service with 2 friends, we reserved the chef for our horse steaks which were delicious, the staff were courteous despite our late arrival, I recommend

Incredible place. Kindness and good humor accompanied by very good music. A must-see place if you want to feel alive! I read someone complaining about the noise, please find a better life if it's too difficult, earplugs work very well too!
