Marché Moderne

Our spot was very drafty

The waiter over charged me by charging my credit card for another party’s meal and then I had to have him void the transaction

Unprofessional and unacceptable to do this for a restaurant

Excellent service but the food was slightly less than stellar. I think food needs a little more contrasting flavors, texture, and color. Plating was very average. Chocolate dessert was served with stale donuts. IMHO the food was better at the south coast location.

Food and service were excellent but the noise level was deafening. Our party of 3 could barely hear each other for a decent conversation. So I’d recommend the restaurant for food and service but to be forewarned about noise.

Aaron was our waiter and offered many suggestions from the menu. It's a beautiful restaurant and we were lucky enough to have a view of the kitchen as they were working their magic! I had the sea bass which was a special. It was a gorgeous presentation. It is evident that there is much pride in what they do. Again, Aaron made our visit there special. He was cheerful, engaging and helpful!! They also have a wonderful wine list.

B day dinner

It was a perfect dinner and we invited friends for their birthday. We love the Monday night dinner as we want to have a delicious meal but not eat too much as we are always watching our weight. Thank you for this great experience at your restaurant! We are very proud of having your restaurant in Crystal Cove. The finest! Dana McNeill Weiner

Marché Moderne continues to excel by paying attention to details. Menu again imaginative and service thoughtful. I particularly appreciated their table and sear selection to accomodate my guest with a wheelchair.

Wow, this place is amazing! This was our second visit to Marche Moderne and it exceeded the first, which was outstanding. Food and service are simply the best. The food is unique and inventive and the array of different tastes keeps you wanting more. We were fortunate to sit by the glass surrounding the kitchen and got to watch much of the food preparation and it was so interesting to see the care and thought that goes into every dish. The pride of the kitchen staff is very evident. I had duck and my wife had black bass and both were excellent. The most amazing dish we had all night was the octopus 2007 appetizer. It was like nothing we've ever had before. So many different tastes, it's impossible to describe. If it's on the menu, get it. Our server was Mike and he was one of the best we've ever had, anywhere. Attentive, helpful and so very personable. I can't say enough about Marche Moderne other than I wish we lived closer. On the other hand, that would be a disaster for my waistline. Oh well.....

Always loved this restuarant. Our waiter was awesome. He was so attentive and really made us feel special.

Fantastic as Always

The best people
The best food
Period

Food was delicious, service was super too! Definitely is the place we will go back often

Never disappoints.

As always, delicious food in a very pleasant venue with excellent service. One of my favorite restaurants in OC

Absolutely wonderful, except had to ask for coffee as dessert arrived.

5 Stars all around, the food was incredible! I enjoyed the Short Ribs, they were delicious and it was a huge portion, I also had the Asian Pear & Oven Dried Pear Salad which was to die for. My friend had the Monday Spontane Supper, the shrimp & scallops were perfection and I've been dreaming about the Coffee Vanilla Panna Cotta Macaroon. I can't begin to describe how delicious everything was down to the butter served with the bread!

My new favorite restaurant in Orange County!!

Order the tuna tartare and save room for dessert! Everything we had was outstanding, including our server Carrie. Will definitely be back.

Our dining experience at Marche Modern was fabulous! Our server, Keri, was most special. Since it was our first time at the restaurant, we felt overwhelmed with all the extraordinary choices, especially the outstanding appetizers. Keri took her time defining and explaining choices off as well as on the menu. Throughout the evening, the service was superb, the glass exposed kitchen a scene to behold, the food delicious, and the ambiance delightful.
The noise level was a bit high, but it was crowded.

The Duck Mousse is to die for. The food was delicious, and beautiful presentation.

Picked this restaurant as it is my favorite and my sisters favorite. She drove up from Del Mar with another friend and I drove in from Garden Grove and another friend drove over from Mission Viejo. That's how much we like Marche Moderne. We get together for our birthdays and everyone always wants to spend it at Marche Moderne. My husband loves the restaurant so we try and go when we get a chance. Always very pleased with our meals and deserts are to die for.

Incredible.

Enjoyed everything ....food service and decor i would visit again when i/m in the area

Just perfect as usual. Always made to feel special there

Wonderful People, Service is Impeccable, and the Food is absolutely Devine. Truly a gastronomical delight. Recommend for that first date, to impress the Boss, that special night out, or just to have fun. Enjoy....!

Creative and traditional French dishes in a modern comfortable setting. Great bartender and cocktail/wine options. Service was excellent.
Like a family Sunday dinner in France here in S. California.

Being French, I must admit that we are quite picky on the Service in a restaurant (my guest was also French). The level of service of our waitress was far from being consistent with the standing of this venue. Also we disliked that the staff was speeding us up to finish our dishes, the quality of food makes us want to appreciate it and you don't want to rush to eat your plate, you need to take your time. Some of the staff did not understand that which undermined our experience (dinner on Saturday). The food is Absolutely excellent and well presented in the plates and for that reason I will try again to visit this place. Thank you

Dinner to celebrate my birthday was enjoyed by all. Two of us had the coq au vin and it was absolutely delicious. Service was wonderful and the evening was enjoyable. We will return.

was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MM was like being transported back

to Toulouse. Elegant flavors.

We were there for the casoullet, which was savory and hearty, and an appropriate serving. Aaron, our waiter, was attentive. As usual, a wonderful dinner.

Thought provoking food combinations and excellence is typical at Marche.

Fantastic! Cassoulet was inspired. Steak Tartare was THE BEST, ever. Aaron was the consummate professional. Attentive, knowledgeable, friendly, warm and welcoming. Every recommendation was spot on.

It was cassoulet week at Marche and it was fabulous! I had the best table in the house and I love Amelia & Florent. My waiter was not experienced enough to handle my single table and did not bring my to go bag soon enough for me to Uber successfully. He was a little bit out of his element. You should have better servers

AMAZING......as always! Got the email that Florin (owner/chef) was making his world famous cassoulet......and it was even better than I remembered from the last winter he made cassoulet! Amelia’s chopped salad was perfect as a starter course....including the French feta....yum!
Long time wait staff very graciously acknowledged our visit and were very prompt at extending our congratulations to Florin for his exquisite presentation.......the kitchen is very visible and you could see Florin beam !

Beautiful restaurant, outstanding service, excellent food. Expensive but you get what you pay for

Salads are always amazing. Great textures and flavors.
We came for the Cassoulet. Unfortunately, it was a little dry.
The bread is different. Sliced.
View of kitchen was nice after being moved from a drafty table.

Consistently excellent. Attention to detail in service, selections, preparation and presentation superb.

The overall was very good for my first experience. Unfortunately, the "regulars" think they're money is better than mine and were extremely rude and demanding to our food server, "Hey, bring more wine wine" was something the table next to me yelled. I was cut in front of when we checked in by an "old man" (I'm 64 yrs) who was in such a hurry to be seated.
