Le - Eugene

I'm not usually a fan of pate, but I have to say, it was fantastic at this restaurant. The cheese and meat plate with pate and salami was delicious, and the baguette was amazing. I usually try to avoid unhealthy foods, but I couldn't resist the temptation of the French baguettes. I considered ordering the beef, but I'm not a fan of the sauce reductions that come with it. I prefer my steak simple. I opted for the steamed mussels as my entree, and they were delicious and filling. The dish came with bread, but I preferred to use the baguette to soak up the sauce. The salad was mediocre, nothing special. The sorbet was good, but the cookie was even better. There are plenty of healthy options for Thinsulin fans, just be cautious with the red light baguettes.

I chose this restaurant for my birthday dinner and it exceeded my expectations. Every dish tasted exceptionally fresh. For starters, we enjoyed the oysters on the half shell and the wild mushroom tartine. As for our main courses, we ordered the Dungeness crab Tagliatelle, the Sole Frites, and the Seared Scallops, all of which were delicious. The service was top-notch and the romantic ambiance was perfect for a date night.

Marche no is celebrating 25 years here in Eugene. They are a staple food is still excellent. Service is excellent and it's a lovely ambience. I had the soup of the day which was potato leek with a garnish of bacon as well as the salmon dinner for dessert. we each had something different. Everything was great, this is a romantic quiet restaurant with really good food. We did not try the alcohol, but the menu was varied and well curated definitely worth a visit.

Food was very good for Lunch in LeBar Had brunch. Omelets were tasty as was my mushroom tartine Recomend!

Date: 10/30/23 Food: 3/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Service: 3/5 Management: 2/5 TL;DR: Some of the most meh food from a supposed fine dining establishment in the state...with an extra portion of clunky service on the side! This was our second trip to Marche our first, being outside in December during a rainstorm in the midst of COVID lockdown restrictions, was so miserable that it defies any attempt to be reviewed and it left me wanting more...or less, if that is possible. Things started out well enough for us this time, with an appropriately pretentious facade and primly polite front of house employees, but it deteriorated quickly. Though I had left a comment during booking requesting a premium table for my dining partner 's surprise birthday dinner, they refused to acknowledge the occasion even as they read my request aloud, struggling to find a nice table at which to seat us at the time of our reservation. We were eventually shoved into a two top less than three feet from the open exhibition kitchen and an even shorter distance from the packed booths across the narrow aisle. It being a Saturday evening, the restaurant was packed with couples and groups conversing at top volume, completely dashing my hopes for dinner with a side of sophistication. The menu was promising, but the food was decidedly less so. While the beef tartare was tasty enough we ate every morsel! the rustic baguette seemed more stale than artisanal as in, tooth breakingly rock like and definitely not worth the $3 upcharge and my tomato gnocchi entree was rich to the point of being completely overpowering. Topped with smoked goat cheese that did nothing to alleviate the fatty aftertaste of the cloying sauce, it cried out dismally for freshness provided only in the strange flower petals ? scattered haphazardly on top which, while attractive, were nearly impossible to eat. My dining partner enjoyed their lamb dish, but its presentation was sadly lacking. Our two nonalcoholic cocktails were completely unremarkable, especially considering the magnificent mixology we had enjoyed earlier in the evening at 86 across the street. BUT the greatest of all shortcomings we experienced that night was not the bland, insipid food but, instead, the service. In between our appetizer and entree, we somehow ended up with a total of FIVE knives on our table and NO other flatware. It was only after our main dishes had been delivered that we managed to flag someone down and pitifully request forks with which to enjoy our entrees. The waitress was cordial about it, but it did not negate that problem, nor make better the fact that our main waiter could offer little insight as to the specifics of any menu selections and that not a single person in the restaurant could be bothered to provide a birthday dessert or wish my dining partner a happy birthday when the occasion had been specifically stated on my reservation...which they clearly had, because they reviewed my comments before giving me the antithesis of what I had requested in other words, one of the worst tables in the house. If you 're looking to be disappointed by Applebees quality preparations of Michelin style dishes, needlessly pretentious service, and a staggeringly unrefined atmosphere, then Marche is your place. Oh, yes, and the last time we visited during COVID, one of the waiters literally yelled at me for forgetting my mask when I stepped inside to take a quick bathroom trip. I was hesitant to return then...now I know why.
