7/10Food we had deserves 4 but a choice of only 2 mains really isn’t good. Scallops starter delicious but a bit cold and overpriced. .The House wine was well chosen and very good value.. A restaurant with great potential.

10/10We did not feel confident about our choice of Cafe Bovo for dinner initially. The menu was quite small. We ordered house cocktails to start with and these were disappointing. But then the food began to arrive and that was all really superb. A very clever chef! Add in a bottle of very good house white wine and great background music and this turned out to be a great choice of restaurant, conveniently very close to Le Vieux Port too.

9.5/10Excellent quality food and nice ambiance. We only spoke English so only one server could help us which hindered service. I would go back to place again.

10/10My wife and I found this restaurant via a TheFork review. We were not disappointed. The staff were brilliant - fun, vibrant, careful, respectful, knowledgeable. The food was outstanding- the flavors were wonderful. We went the tapas route with 5 choices plus desert. We were full. Good value for money - Euro 73 which included 2 glasses of wine. We were in Provence for 16 days with many meals out and this was by far the best. Highly recommend.

9.5/10A little gem! One street back from the harbour and its tourist restos, although fairly basic the staff and food were fab. A sort of French tapas vibe, with some fresh ideas. Really attentive staff, very friendly and kind. Couldn’t do enough to make us welcome.

9.5/10An exceptional experience in all ways. Chef Denis served up at escabeche of mackerel that was one of the best fish starters I have ever eaten anywhere followed by a loin of pork in bbq sauce that would have been superb if only for the quality of the ingredients. Noah provided friendly, competent, and good humored service. The wine list deserves comment as well. While there are no old vintages on offer, Chef Denis really knows the wines of his region and guided us to an outstanding bottle from north of Montpellier. We would never have found this wine on our own. Price/value relationship here is excellent. We would enthusiastically recommend Cafe Bovo to anyone visiting Marseille and will definitely return.

10/10This was the best restaurant we ate at on our trip to France. We had the lamb, which melted in my mouth, the white fish with white sauce was delicious, and the desserts were also excellent. Beer and wine choices paired perfectly. I recommended this restaurant to my cousin who is local. Everything was above expectations and was not expensive. Chef Denise came out to the tables and was very friendly. He definitely impressed us with the food.

9.5/10The staff were friendly and welcoming and very knowledgeable about allergens. We navigated the menu to find something gluten & diary free and it was no bother to them. We spent a very lovely, relaxed evening and would definitely go back again.

10/10The best restaurant in the Old Port for those who appreciate good food and are in need of gluten-free meals. We have been coming here again and again for 3 years. Very children friendly and good food and absolute accommodating for the kids too. When we are in Marseilles then always: Café Bovo! Many thanks to the great team!

3/10We decided to try this place because of the scoring of the fork, 9.7/10… We took two starters and two main course (octopus) everything was fresh but the combination of all ingredients didn’t match at all…the taste was full of flavours and at the end, we didn’t like it! I am sorry for the comment but 9.7 it’s not acceptable, really!

Bonjour, Je n’ai aucunement la prétention de plaire à tout le monde. Ma cuisine est complètement assumée, faite avec amour et à mon goût. Je n'ai aucunement l’intention d’en changer. Les clients sont des personnes adultes qui sont censés savoir lire une carte et où ils mettent les pieds. Malgré cela, si vous vous êtes égarés chez nous, sachez que vous avez la possibilité de communiquer avec le personnel afin que la cuisine et le service s'adaptent à vous. Cordialement

10/10I needed gluten free which was not a problem as all but one menu item was gluten free. Staff explained everything and were very attentive (bringing us ice all the time). Definitely recommend
