Saf Saf - Marseille

We visited here the first night of our trip and were happy to find a restaurant on foot. Even if it was Ramadan and not quite sunset, the staff was quite welcoming (even if it certainly helps to speak a little French). I wouldn't say the menu was wide, but the couscous was certainly very tasty. we returned several times and each time we enjoyed the food.

I went there today, I took the fish of the day with couscous, the food was very good, the service was slow enough, because it was their rush to lunch. Great place for a cheap meal in marseille.

All right to start, there is a wide range of couscous restaurants in marseille in this price range - and these are the small things that separate them. In this case, which distinguishes saf saf from the rest, it is the smoky character of the herd that I really enjoyed on the roast lamb (mechoui) that I had with the couscous. friendly service, well located and not so busy that it is mental - beautiful differences between the tables and a good atmosphere. for 7-8 euros do not hesitate to go. nb a lot of places take to take away, which is good sign!

I love couscous so I was super excited when a French friend told me it was his favorite place in marseille. Umm. I thought it was just okay. ordered the royal (beef, pork, chicken, merquez, lamb) to share with his daughter. The meat lacked flavour and the peach was rather dry. We also had a tuna block - essentially a fried crêpe with tuna and an egg in the dish inside. I'm not sure I'd recommend it.

I had a very good dinner with a friend of mine from Marseilles during my holidays. the couscous we had was delicious and really typical. prices are correct and the service is good, we have had a free mint tee and candy are delicious
