Tentation de Pekin sur Marseille

31/07/2026: This is the best authentic Chinese restaurant in Marseille, with its traditional Chinese cuisine and tray service just like in Beijing or Shanghai. Frankly, I don't understand the negative reviews. I'm dreaming about soft-shelled shrimp! I'm crying with delight. I highly recommend it without hesitation, and please stop reading the ridiculous reviews from malicious and stupid customers.

28/07/2026: We had lunch there as a couple on Tuesday, July 28, 2026. We received a very warm welcome and were seated at a table with a tablecloth and cloth napkins (not paper). The dining room was beautifully decorated, with a typically Asian ambiance. We enjoyed a nice, cold Tsingtao beer to quench our thirst. For starters, we had shrimp tempura and pork spring rolls, followed by chicken in chili sauce and crispy pork ribs, served with Cantonese rice. The dishes were beautifully presented. The shrimp were perfectly cooked, still firm; the spring rolls were delicious; the chicken was incredibly tender, cooked to perfection; and the pork ribs were delicious. We asked for fresh chili peppers as the dishes weren't spicy enough for our taste. It was excellent. A chilled rosé wine accompanied our meal. Thank you to the entire team, and to Hélène who came to greet us. The restaurant will be closing for a month's holiday. Happy holidays to all! .......................... We had lunch there as a family of nine on Wednesday, July 17, 2024. Always a warm welcome, friendly staff. For an appetizer, we had pork spring rolls, which were as good as ever; and delicious shrimp tempura, to accompany the Chinese cocktails and other appetizers. The crispy pork ribs were excellent, fried, very tender, a delight, very well prepared, perfectly cooked; the shrimp sautéed with salt and pepper were a good size, still a little crunchy as we like them, not at all mushy, flavorful, excellent, presented with onions and peppers, a beautifully presented dish; beef with onions on a hot plate, shrimp dumplings, braised pork... It's all very good, with a variety of chilies for those who like them. Plain rice or fried rice is available. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. The food was excellent, the dining room was lovely, the setting pleasant, the atmosphere relaxing, and the tablecloths and napkins were lovely. Excellent value for money.
