We've been here many times. But, our this this past weekend was FANATASTIC! From service to food...it was absolutely outstanding! Our waiter was awesome!
The waiter cleared my table when I went to the toilet. My S.Pellegrino was gone when I returned.
Simply , It’s the best
Your food was excellent combined with excellent service
Larissa was awesome and so was the food!
Food was so great. Salmon appetizer with mustard ice cream was insanely great!
The ambiance at this restaurant is perfect. From the great valet staff to the servers and their support staff the evening was perfect. I have no comments on areas that they would need improvement
The best restaurant in the OC is back and as great as ever!!
The best of the best! Our waiter was a true professional. Thank you.
Some of the best food in Orange County! Excellent to the taste and served with professionalism.
An exquisitely planned, crafted, and delivered Valentine weekend fixed meal. The Marneaus have raised the bar yet again. It is so wonderful to have Marche open and serving, with all appropriate precautions; we truly missed their professionalism, artistry, and enthusiastic creations.
Hands down the best meal in OC. The food is spectacular! If you are a food this is a must.
That was a true culinary experience. The food and service were incredible, I just wish it didn’t have to be so expensive.

Valentine’s Day tradition.
Dinner at Marche! We love everything about Marche. Great food and atmosphere, great service and friendly people.
Simply awesome!!!
French perfection, impeccable service, top class dining experience
This was our second visit and it didn’t disappoint!! The food, service and overall experience are wonderful!!!!
A third visit is in the books for next month.
The service and ambience were wonderful as usual. The scallops and shrimp main course was disappointing but the chocolate soufflé was fabulous
It was our second or 3rd time here and was probably the best visit. Food was delicious, cocktails were on point and service was excellent. Can’t wait to return.
Cocktails are outstanding. Had the filet poivre to die for.
Went to Marche Moderne on Saturday, February 6th at 6 PM. We had a table inside and enjoyed Oysters, Lobster, Shrimp, Salmon, Dirty Martini's & Wine. Everything from the minute we arrived to leaving a few hours later was absolutely amazing. I am so glad they are open again!! Can't wait to go again!!!
Great food, service and ambiance. Not much more to be said. If you are looking for authentic French cuisine then Marche Moderne is the place.
My niece and I had an amazing evening. Larissa took care of us with perfect recommendations and attentive, but not overbearing service. The pork tenderloin preparation was the BEST I have ever had. Hands down the best!
Service was outstanding. Food was incredible. Memorable beautiful evening. Thank you Marche!!
Menu presently limited, but outstanding selections superbly prepared. Excellent service.
Looking forward to more normal times when the full menu is available.
We had a wonderful evening. The food was outstanding and the service impeccable. We were very happy with the COVID-19 protocols in place!
Great food, on point service and fabulous ambiance.
We always love our dinner at Marche. The service, and food are always excellent. We enjoyed the delicious bread, octopus, fig salad and sashimi for appetizers. They were excellent. The Lobster special was great but the portion was too small for the cost. The steak and short rib dishes were delicious, as well. We look forward to our next visit.
It was such a wonderful experience, the food and the service was top notch. What a great dining experience among this tough time.
Always a great experience and amazing food!! Highly recommended!
Outstanding food, king and queen like service, very elegant and classy atmosphere!
Best restaurant in Orange County and one of the best restaurants ever. It is perfection.
This is the best restaurant in OC. The food is outstanding and presented beautifully ...the staff is well informed, pleasant and attentive. We did take out and ate at the restaurant both this weekend. Please support them during these difficult times.
It’s perfect. It’s always nothing less than completely perfect.
Once again a great experience. Outdoor dining felt safe and comfortable. They didn’t miss a beat. Can’t wait to go back
The best enjoyed everything. The service , food and ambiance
My wife and I went here for our 23rd wedding anniversary, first time at this restaurant. We are no strangers for French food, our best meal ever was probably at Chevre D'or in Eze, France on one of our European vacations. This meal was easily as good. Larissa (server) was really great (friendly, helpful, great menu coach), recommending a fantastic French White based on our taste, and our food choices (fish) were the best. My wife fancies herself a connoisseur of scallops and I caught her taking a picture of the presentation of the dish. She loved the taste and after she shared with me I enthusiastically concurred. We will go again and I've recommended it to a bunch of friends already.
Usually I don't like French food but here is too delicious and fresh !
I love this restarant ^^
Delicious food. Great friendly service. Pricey, but nice for a special occasion.
Always an incredible experience. Thank you for making my birthday extra special!
