“ This past weekend we had a wonderful meal and great service at Marche. We noticed not all the tables were filled and they let us know they were short staffed so they dont fill all the tables to make sure they can give attention to those they do seat. We had made our reservation in advance for a special occasion and were appreciative that although it must have been difficult to turn people away who came without reservations, that they held themselves to high standards for service. The warm bread and salted butter alone is a reason to come back. The Cesar salad was perfect and I loved the anchovies. My husband had the steak which was perfect and I had the mussels which were divine. We loved the house made ketchup and aioli for the fries. We didnt get dessert but know we will next time. Thanks for such a great evening! ”
“ Fabulous food and fantastic drinks, worth the ferry ride. CabernetBraised Skagit River Ranch Short Rib took a bite from friends plate delicious and ridiculously big which was great, the meat was tender and melted in your mouth. Pleasant View Duck Breast cooked nicely, although I prefer mine a little bit on the rare side, the skin cooked just right. Seafood Stew only tasted the broth as portion just enough for friends very healthy, the broth smells like the sea. The drink Vesper, almost on par with Ramseys in New York. We also had the Tarte Flambe, Chicken Liver Pate and Shrimp Avocado, all very delicious. We then had the minitrio for dessert to complete a nice girls night out dinner. Service was superb, although they had to turn off the AC to accomedate another table of customers request while we were sweating quite a bit. Granted they did turn it back on a few minutes after i asked them to when my friend and I were sweating like there no tomorrow. But then they turned it off again for the rest of our staying. Unfortunately, we cant take any more layers off while the other table could just put their jacket on? The hostess did bring me a pamphlet so I can fan off the heat myself. ”
“ We were lucky enough to get in on a themed Cajun All inclusive five course meal last Sunday. Double yum! We hope that there are more of these themed dinners to come. ”
“ Very friendly staff and welcoming decor. We stopped by for a weekday lunch and had mussels and fries and vegetables cooked in 5 ways. The fries were excellent with the seasoned mayonnaise on the side. Everything was delicious. Bravo! ”
“ Gorgeous food... stunning service. Owned by a husband and wife team who work their butts off. We had a party of six on the night and everything presented to the table was flawless. Keep up the good work. Loved this place ”
“ Weve been dining here for many years and still love it after a three year absence. Chef Greg and Betsey do an amazing job turning out excellent food and warm, friendly service. We ate here twice during our most recent stay on Bainbridge. First night we sat at the bar they were at full capacity and had a great meal of seared fresh wild salmon and mussels frites. Our server was warm and wonderful and we had a great chat with Betsey about their creative cocktail program. Chefs house made rolls with cultured butter is a must have here! They are warm and crusty and perfect. Everything he makes is great. There are no bad choices. So happy to see it thriving in this challenging time for the hospitality industry. Marche is a gem worth seeking out. ”
“ As expected of the restaurant with the highest stars in this island! as of summer 2019 This is a restaurant with concept with the determination to become a real restaurant, whereby customers come in hungry tired, and leave feeling restorednourished. The food is great and the restaurants design is very pleasing to the eyes. If you have time, read the restaurant owners reflection writing placed next to the restroom also included in this post. Its impressively wellwritten. Reading this will make you appreciate your experience in the restaurant much more. My only complaintwarning would be that you should only enter this place if you have plenty of time. The restaurant dont have many staffs during lunch. It cant be helped, I guess, that the service is slow. ”
“ Everything was outstanding! From the service to Chef Atkinson to the food itself. Everything was perfectly seasoned, the portion sizes were great, and the food was priced well for what it was. All in all, really great night out! ”
