Les rigoles

Les Rigoles has quickly become a neighborhood favorite on Boulevard Longchamp, offering a warm, unpretentious atmosphere that feels authentically Marseille. The space itself is inviting with its terracotta facade and distinctive zigzag counter, but it’s the food and wine that keep you coming back. Chef Anaelle Bec, who took over from Johann Barichasse, serves up creative tapas that are both surprising and satisfying—think radish on whipped butter with pollack tartare and harissa, or the kefta of beef and lamb with garlic cream and Padrón peppers. The wine list leans heavily into naturals, with glasses ranging from €4 to €7 and some interesting bottle options for those feeling adventurous.\n\nThe vibe is consistently lively without being overwhelming, especially on evenings when they host jazz or bossa nova on the terrace. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find a mix of regulars and newcomers, all drawn in by the combination of good food, reasonable prices, and genuine hospitality. While the wine list could be a bit more extensive, the quality is solid and the staff clearly knows their stuff.
