Keep it in french and explain
The pissaladière is a Niçois onion tart eaten as an appetizer. It is often sold in individual portions by bakery shops and, of course, you can find it at tiny stands on your way to the beach along the Côte d'Azur. (As nice as it is to be on your way to the beach along the Côte d'Azur, these mass-produced pissaladières can be a pretty bland variation of the original.)

Pissaladière of scallops, apple strudel
Pas simple de traduire un menu, mais là, il va falloir que tu gardes le terme de Pissaladière of scallops. Hum!!! Sounds nice so!
Crousillant de pommes (ou croustillant?), on parle bien de dessert là?
Bonne chance!

Coquilles St. Jacques pissaladière, crispy potatoes
Leave the 'pissaladière...' as is, or translate as Provençale pizza with coquilles st. Jacques'
pissaladière is a Provençale-type pizza with onions, olives and anchovies; here it's got coquilles as well
I think there's a 't' missing in the pommes dish - should be 'croustillant' - crispy

Scallops in a savory tart
pissaladière niçoise is a tomatoe & onion tart. Is the croustillant de pommes potatoes? I think it most likely and would translate "garnished with crispy potatoes" to get off the hook. However, in these nouvelle days, it's just possible they are apples. Any way to verify with client?

: I favour keeping the French, but think this 'savoury tart' is a succinct way of summing up the general idea; I also suspect it is 'potatoes' [personally, I wouldn't marry apples with scallops!]; 'croustillant' can be so many things, risky to interpret

Pissaladière of scallops, apple strudel
Impossible de translate de "Pissaladière" terme as it is a regional dish.
As far as the apple dish is concerne, if it relates to the pudding, you can use the "strudel" terme.
Good luck!

scallops and vegetables tart with apple (filled) crust (or in light puff pastry)
it is the new local version of sweet and sour and apples are widely used with savoury dishes. the pissaladière is in fact a tart with traditional ingredients (onions, tomatoes,sweet peppers) but it can incorporate other things (hence the "with vegetables" to cut it short) and as for the apples they are probably served in a light puff pastry "nest" as they call it as flavur enhancer to the whole thing
