Marseille Restaurant Review:


It used to be that Hell's Kitchen wasn't such a far cry from the seedy port city that is this restaurant's namesake. Times change though as meals at Marseille indicate---swanky affairs that see plenty of the Armani-clad and pashmina-wearing set. The sexy, sultry dining room is done up in red and orange tones, and bathed in blue light. A menu of exotically spiced, fiery dishes takes inspiration from Morocco and France. For lunch, try the house-smoked trout filet with green lentils, bacon and apples. The ricotta gnocchi with butternut squash, sage, brown butter, and Meyer lemon and Parmesan sauce is a popular dinner item. Also sample such Eastern specialties as brochettes, tapenade and stewed meat with fruit. Order the three-course tasting menu and make a night of it.
