Consider this restaurant as a special occasion/dating one but got disappointed. first of all, even though we mentioned in reservation that this is for wedding anniversary, the waiter arranged the seating next to the kitchen, we can hear loud noises(from kitchen) and due to the tables are too close to each other we can hear conversations from other tables too. the ambiance is not suitable for any special occasion I have to say. I also noticed there're other seatings might be quiet and more appropriate, we made reservation long time ago, really can't understand why the seating arrangement is like that. For the appetizer scallops are really nice, highly recommended. but for steamed mussels, another disappointment....I can literally feel the sand in the mussels, and some of them had very strong fishy smell, I 've tasted this dish in many other restaurants, this is definitely abnormal. it's not a very complex cuisine, should be better performed in a high-class restaurant. For the main courses, the duck confit and short ribs are devine, we were pretty down until the main courses were served. it's the best duck confit ever. we will definitely come back to Marche moderne for the main courses(not for any special occasion though) For the value, the portion and prices is reasonable, not cost-effective definitely but reasonable enough to accept. For the service, no complaint, the staffs are nice and patient. In conclusion. if you are looking for a restaurant with amazing cuisine, come to this one and try its featured dishes. if you are trying to get romantic ambiance or have personal conversations in a quiet atmosphere, try somewhere else.

Had a wonderful experience at Marche Modern: the food was delicious (seems to be made of quality ingredients). The appetizers were served in smaller plates, and I liked that a lot. The service was excellent - water and wine were refilled without me having to ask…

The food was amazing. We started with the morel and the octopus appetizers. Both were fantastic. The entrees were also fantastic. My scallops were huge and perfectly cooked. The lamb, pork, and risotto looked very enticing as well. We had brought two bottles of wine with us. Their corkage fee is steep but we knew that going in. We had a bottle of white with our appetizers. The wine glasses that were brought for the white were not very clean and somewhat spotted. I let it go as I thought it was an anomaly. We requested to have the bottle of red decanted. The waiter opened the bottle in front of us and then took the bottle to decant it. He brought the wine back in the decanter but I was truly shocked to see there were several water spots and what looked like some kind of etched residue towards the neck of the decanter. The wine was already in the decanter. Our server was very nice but there was absolutely no way he did not see this. At this caliber of restaurant, I was very disappointed to have this experience. The fact that we were pouring our own wine during the appetizer course didn’t bother me, but it is definitely not the level of service one expects at this type of restaurant. Everything else was wonderful with the exception of the wine service.

Our waiter Allan was outstanding. I will recommend this restaurant to my friends. Just keep your prices reasonable. I was just disappointed for the extra charge of $5 to split the appetizer with my wife. You should apply the split charge on the main course only but not on appetizers.

We celebrated our Anniversary while visiting Newport Coast and chose Marche’ Moderne as it has never disappointed on two other occasions. We were even more delighted on this latest experience as the food was impeccable as was the presentation of each of our selections. But our evening was made even more enjoyable by our waiter, Philippe. His knowledge of both food and wine recommendations coupled with his skill of attentive service combined with a delightful personality really made it a truly standout dining experience overall. That said…. obviously we will be back again whenever we get the chance. We highly recommend you consider this wonderful restaurant if you are in the area.

We have been going to marche moderne for a long time, however didn’t realise that the steak tartare francaise which brings us here is no longer on the menu! The new version is tasty but we really loved the pomme frites and access to all the condiments to really make it perfect for the individual. The service was fantastic and all the wait staff were friendly and welcoming. Wine was excellent
