La Goulette sur Marseille

Très bon couscous, un des meilleur de la ville servi dans une ambiance poliment familiale. Le lieu est apprécié, vaut mieux réserver un peut avant d'arriver (quoi que la plupart de temps suffit d'attendre 5–10 minutes...). Attention, carte crédit 💳 pas acceptée.

It's really good and the portions are generous, so don't hesitate!

I love this neighborhood canteen where you're guaranteed to share delicious couscous and tagines with locals in a lively atmosphere! The gazelle horns are fantastic too!

During my visit to the La Goulette restaurant in Marseille, I had a particularly disappointing experience. After placing my order, I wanted to change it less than a minute later. I spoke to a different waiter than the one who had initially taken it, but he returned to me about thirty seconds later in an abrupt tone, asking, "What's the problem?" I calmly explained that there was no issue, that I had simply changed my mind about my order. Later, I asked to take away my mother's dish, as she hadn't eaten her couscous. The waiter handed me the container, explaining that it normally cost 50 cents. I replied that I was perfectly willing to pay, even though I was annoyed, but he ultimately told me it wasn't necessary, while curtly saying, "Goodbye, madam." However, I must point out that, normally, the people who work at this restaurant are extremely kind and the food is very good. It is precisely this contrast with my previous experiences that makes this episode all the more regrettable. Unfortunately, this accumulation of unpleasant remarks and a lack of professionalism left me with a very bad impression. I will never set foot in this restaurant again and I am leaving a very negative review. P.S.: This waiter thinks he's a star, but unfortunately for him...

Simple and hearty food. The couscous is excellent. The best thing about this restaurant is their homemade harissa sauce, and the servers are friendly... I highly recommend it.

The food is always delicious and the servers are very friendly. My family dines there regularly.

Best restaurant, very good tagine (price €11) and couscous, served with respect...

In Marseille, I don't eat anywhere else. Always very, very good. Don't change a thing.

Excellent lamb and merguez couscous. Very friendly service.

La Goulette, a touristy and historic spot in Marseille. A relaxed atmosphere, unpretentious seating. A diverse clientele, though a few tourists (unfortunately 😅). Easy access by tram, metro a little further away. The only downside: Jul's music playing in the background 😄. The royal couscous and merguez sausages were generous and delicious. The service was friendly without being overbearing. My favorite: their harissa, simply perfect! 🌶️
