28/09/2026: Chez Etienne is an institution, and there's always a queue outside, but we easily managed to get in for dinner, arriving shortly after opening. Right from the start, they made it clear: only cash is accepted, but no problem, there are ATMs nearby. We were greeted by the mischievous yet extremely efficient Nasser, a colorful character who was always on the go and didn't miss the opportunity to gently tease my companion with the kind of cheeky banter that characterizes Marseillais in the collective imagination. We were quickly seated with other customers at a table with a red checkered tablecloth (old-fashioned decor, of course). The place filled up very quickly, with a mix of regulars and tourists. On the wall, faded photos of the restaurant's history and the celebrities who have dined there. The noise level increased as the evening progressed. It's always packed, very noisy, and there's a crazy, joyful energy all around. The oven is working at full blast, and the pizzas come out uniformly crispy (i.e., not just on the edges). The seasoning is perfect, with just the right amount of garlic and herbs. There are only two topping choices, but that's more than enough: cheese or anchovies, with the option of a half-and-half. Both are very good, but I have a slight preference for the lighter anchovy pizza. It's worth noting, because it's not obvious: the pizzas aren't sold by "dish" but by "person." So, a "2-person" pizza is equivalent to two quarter pizzas per person for two people (which is one full pizza). It also seems that there are different pizza sizes depending on the number of people. The salad is also very generous. Next to us, our table neighbors ordered cuttlefish, which looked exquisite. The meat dishes also appeared to be of high quality. Indeed, the restaurant isn't just a pizzeria; it also serves other dishes. Despite the crowd outside and the quick service, we weren't rushed to pay the bill or clear the table. The staff is unpretentious but always very attentive and helpful. Dining at Etienne's was a truly unique experience, well worth the trip.

12/07/2026: After buying some Navettes nearby, here we are, thanks to a friend from Marseille, in this very friendly neighborhood restaurant (a Jura native like me would never have stumbled upon it otherwise, and I'll definitely be back!). Panisses as an appetizer and the perfect dish of the day: beef carpaccio with sublime fries. The shop next door (a butcher and delicatessen) allowed me to buy a vacuum-packed roll of panisses, which I took back to Dole after dropping my friend off at her place. The service is perfect, and so is the air conditioning!

09/05/2026: Small sunny terrace, fair prices and quality meat of course!

11/10/2026: Excellent restaurant! The staff is very friendly and the food is incredible! Pequinoise soup, shrimp spring rolls, Peking duck, lamb Pequinoise, eggplant hot pot, and Cantonese rice—everything was delicious! A great place we'll definitely be back to!

30/08/2026: We've been looking for a Chinese restaurant ever since we moved here (2 years ago). In Chicago, we have Chinatown with authentic recipes, so we really appreciated the food here. It's a great atmosphere with good service! We ordered the eggplant (very good), the spicy beef, and the spicy chicken. We love spicy food, and it was delicious! A little tip for the chicken: it should have half or more chili peppers, and the rest were small pieces of chicken. We prefer less chili pepper. For us, The Mandarin Oriental is like the Matrix. You have to go up the stairs, and the hallway is a bit like the Matrix with the elevator. lol. We loved it, and every time I was there, the other people were Asian. For us, that's a very good sign!!
