Bistrot de la Republique - Marseille

The service was excellent, the food was just right. The restaurant provides both traditional and creative dishes with high quality products. The 'plateau de desserts ' contained tons of choices and most of them were marvelous, same things for the plateau de fromage. We were there on Saturday night, despite the booking, we felt the restaurant was a bit too crowded.

The Filet de boeuf for €39, was a complete disaster. I ordered a medium filet de boeuf, but it was well done. I sent it back to the chef and he gave me after 5 minutes the same piece of meat. A total disrespect. So, I sent it back, waited 15 minutes and I got a new filet de boeuf, which was.... well done. So I lost my temper and sent it back to the kitchen. So finaly, half an hour after the other main courses were served, I got a good filet de boeuf. In the meanwhile, the service staf did nothing to make the waiting time more convenient. No drinks or anything was offered. No small bites to compensate or pass the waiting time. Most of all, the chef has never apologized for such a bad job. I had a good and friendly conversation with the head of service and made him clear that the serving staf could have done more. He agreed, accepted my learning points and took my filet de boeuf off the bill.

Thanks to the catererer and pastry team for this beautiful and very good Christmas log

Excellent address, the cuisine is delicious and what to say of the beautiful cheese tray and dessert trolley. I strongly recommend.

Saturday evening, warm and cozy atmosphere, very friendly and pleasant waitress, listening and restoration without waiting with succulent dishes. Thanks to all the staff for a nice relaxing family party.
