Name: AM par Alexandre Mazzia
Address: Marseille, FR

Alexandre Mazzia's singular Marseille table, a run of small plates built on smoke, spice and the sea, shaped by a childhood in Congo. Unlike anywhere else on the coast.

The cooking

Dozens of tiny, precise courses, seafood and vegetables threaded with unexpected spice and char. Personal cooking that ignores the Provençal template entirely.

Why it is in VANE

One chef's memory turned into a menu, in a port that has always mixed everything. Marseille's most original room.

VANE selection. Chosen with a critic's eye and judged independently. It's here because we judged it, not because it paid.
On this profile: a researched profile, drawn from the restaurant's own record and reporting, not a claim of a first-hand visit. Where we have eaten there, the review says so.
