The menu is creative with delicious specials but also it has tried and true Italian standards! Very attentive staff but not overbearing. Desserts were nicely sized so they could be shared. I will definitely plan to return to try more of their delightful food!

About the restaurant

Lechon is a South American dining experience that seamlessly combines the fiery cooking of Argentina, Chile and Patagonia, along with creative inspiration of the chef. Enjoy perfectly charred 28-day dry-aged ribeye, grilled octopus with chorizo, housemade piquillo pepper and pork empanadas, slow roasted lechon, refreshing ceviches and smoked bone marrow.

Executive Chef Jaco Smith consistently pushes the boundaries on traditional Latin fare by incorporating wood-fired flavors into his cuisine while boasting a view of the Willamette River that few Portland restaurants can offer. Smith comes from a large family of cattle, sheep and grain farmers. He started cooking at a young age in his mother’s kitchen. His favorite childhood memories include the tastes of dulce de leche, flan and grilled breads, reminiscent of South American flavors and commonly found on South African kitchen tables.

About the restaurant

There is also a stylish bar and a large outdoor dining area, covered with awnings and umbrellas and surrounded by a garden of herbs and edible flowers. Marche takes its name from the French word for market – a word that describes our location in the bustling 5th street Market and more importantly, our philosophy of cooking. The menu is based on the foods one would find at a farmer’s market: fresh, seasonal, and regional. Marche is committed to using only those ingredients that are at their best, so our menu evolves as we move through the seasons of the year. Marche also believes in using the highest quality and most healthful ingredients available and to that end use organic, free range, and chemical free products. The culinary technique is French-based: intensely flavored and simply but beautifully presented.

I made reservations for my wife and I for for dinner for our second wedding anniversary. We were a few minutes late and they were still very happy to seat us. We got to our table right next to the fireplace (which was great!) and our host came back and gave us a thank you card (for choosing to spend our anniversary with them) that also included a free dessert! (The cheesecake was delicious by the way!) The restaurant was beautiful, the music was romantic, the food was amazing (definitely try the brisket!) and the staff was great…. They close at 8 and we didn’t get out of there until almost 830 (absolutely unintentional… sorry guys!) and they never said anything but thank you when we left! We will absolutely be back!
