la poissonerie laurent

recommended by our hotel, it is well located at the harbour riverfront. eating is however average, although the service and the reception were warm and prompt.

I had a really nice meal here. The service was excellent and attentive in spite of how busy it was. The setting kept you in the energetic ambiance of the port of Cassis. The grilled daurade was fresh and whole meal enjoyable.

We're local which is why I've said we won't be back. As everyone says, the location like all the rest is great, It's a fast food joint and has great chips but the rest is inconsistent and with fish, that's the kiss of death. The other problem is that the tables are too close together, the chairs are really uncomfortable for sitting for very long and the staff are rushing back and forth lie a marathon which basically gave me indigestion!

the salmon stare was so delicious that we returned to the next night to enjoy it again! the service was warm, attentive and the ability to order and converse in English was very helpful. the alone and soulbream were delicious. the sole was fresh...and sweet (2 sizes to choose) and the beside dishes of kartoffels, carrots and zucchini was very tasteful. tables filled quickly so that reservations appear helpful. we recommend this restaurant warm and look back again.

We have been visiting Cassis for the last 20 years (during which many things have changed), and gave Laurent another try this summer. We are glad we did. We started with a soup de poisson, then had the catch of the day (Dorade royale.) The food as excellent, fresh and tasty. Our waiter was very pleasant, and the setting is (as most restaurants in the harbour of Cassis) lively and scenic. Would definitely recommend if you like fish. Reservation during summer is recommended, or come early.

My wife and I visited La Poissonnerie on our first night in Cassis. We both ordered moules with their “house” sauce. When they arrived it was evident that the moules had not been properly cleaned and that a lot of them had been re-heated, which...was ironic as half of them were cold. Frankly, it’s our bad for not sending them back, but after a day travelling from Paris we just couldn’t be bothered. Needless to say, we never went back and would suggest that anyone in search of good food avoid as well.

Beautiful location and pretty restaurant. We hadn't booked so they asked us to sit at a quayside table while they found a table for us. Very helpful in finding us a table but things went downhill after that. We both decided to have moules frites the moules were ok in themselves but I had 6 closed ones which is a lot for one dish. We were not given a bowl to wash fingers or wipes. I had Provençal sauce which had a strange flavour and was quite unpleasant. My wife had the cream sauce which was better but a bit thick and claggy. The frites were also disappointing as they were thick cut and not very good. Looked to be plenty of similar good places to eat but this was a poor choice. I think they...

Let me start by stating that the restaurant is perfectly situated with a beautiful view of the surrounding scenery; service was good. But when you go to a place like this you expect the food to be relatively edible and probably fresh; it was NEITHER.Fritures mixtes: a mix of mini fish deep fried and a staple of southern french and Mediterranean cuisine was a total failure. The fish were not fresh (probably frozen), not crunchy and tasted stale with a lost a bitter taste.Souped de poisson: the fish soup was blah! Noix de St. Jacques: Although we were told they would be fresh, they were not. Also way overcooked and dry and covered with too much pesto sauce and french fries! Summary: expensive...

Cassis is full of good places to eat and on the marina front outside in good weather couldn't really get any better however I felt the meal we had here could most certainly have been better for the price !This place is a specialist fish venue so choosing a fish dish has to be the way to go...we chose fish soup as a starter which was the same as everyone else's fish soup and I felt it could have been better in content and presentation for 12 euros or thereabouts .!was no different to the bottled fish soup you see in any supermarket.Similar situation with the main course...ordered a sole meuniere which was Ok but not memorable and again at 24/25 euros for the dish, could have been better prese...
