Le - Eugene

Attentive, friendly service, flavorful, fresh food, easy reservation process, thematic, tasteful decor, and lots of parking. We went for Easter brunch during a visit to Eugene based on Yelp reviews. It was the best ambiance, best price, best service, and best food during our trip. We started with the obligatory beignets and the Easter special, hot cross buns. The beignets were all the puffy, warm, slightly sweet goodness you'd expect and the rhubarb sauce on side was a creative, fresh, spring treat. The buns were warm, appropriately doughy, and sprinkled with tart currants. For breakfast we had a croque madame and the boudin blanc. The sandwich had a great toasty crunch, just the right amount of melted cheese, and a lovely egg. The boudin blanc had the same great egg and sausage with a unique, rich pate texture. We will be back.

We had an amazing Easter Sunday brunch at Marche in Eugene! It was the best meal we had during our stay, and we will definitely make it a tradition to visit every time we are in the area. The Boudin Blanc and Croque Madame dishes were brunch style fine dining at its best, with fantastic service from our server Jennifer. The whole experience was top-notch, from the food to the service. We enjoyed every bite of our meals, which is rare for us. The price was surprisingly reasonable compared to other options in Eugene. Marche is definitely worth every penny and should not be missed in any town!

Came in for a solo dinner while on a business trip and I was super pleased overall. Food was phenomenal with outstanding service. Prices are generally high but also worth it if you 're looking to treat yourself. Starting with the cheese board, we had a selection of cow, sheep, and goat. Along with it an assortment of nuts, apple, honey, crackers, and a solid jam Sole pomme frites was very light fish but paired well with the salty fries and great with a crisp white wine. Dessert (apple tart) was astonishing, with the espresso being a little disappointing but not the worst I 've had. I am also a coffee snob and I 've had very few restaurants with good espresso. A high energy location maybe one notch below fine dining. Many good qualities, only missing the flair that fine dining brings

Food was very good for Lunch in LeBar Had brunch. Omelets were tasty as was my mushroom tartine Recomend!

Date: 10/30/23 Food: 3/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Service: 3/5 Management: 2/5 TL;DR: Some of the most meh food from a supposed fine dining establishment in the state...with an extra portion of clunky service on the side! This was our second trip to Marche our first, being outside in December during a rainstorm in the midst of COVID lockdown restrictions, was so miserable that it defies any attempt to be reviewed and it left me wanting more...or less, if that is possible. Things started out well enough for us this time, with an appropriately pretentious facade and primly polite front of house employees, but it deteriorated quickly. Though I had left a comment during booking requesting a premium table for my dining partner 's surprise birthday dinner, they refused to acknowledge the occasion even as they read my request aloud, struggling to find a nice table at which to seat us at the time of our reservation. We were eventually shoved into a two top less than three feet from the open exhibition kitchen and an even shorter distance from the packed booths across the narrow aisle. It being a Saturday evening, the restaurant was packed with couples and groups conversing at top volume, completely dashing my hopes for dinner with a side of sophistication. The menu was promising, but the food was decidedly less so. While the beef tartare was tasty enough we ate every morsel! the rustic baguette seemed more stale than artisanal as in, tooth breakingly rock like and definitely not worth the $3 upcharge and my tomato gnocchi entree was rich to the point of being completely overpowering. Topped with smoked goat cheese that did nothing to alleviate the fatty aftertaste of the cloying sauce, it cried out dismally for freshness provided only in the strange flower petals ? scattered haphazardly on top which, while attractive, were nearly impossible to eat. My dining partner enjoyed their lamb dish, but its presentation was sadly lacking. Our two nonalcoholic cocktails were completely unremarkable, especially considering the magnificent mixology we had enjoyed earlier in the evening at 86 across the street. BUT the greatest of all shortcomings we experienced that night was not the bland, insipid food but, instead, the service. In between our appetizer and entree, we somehow ended up with a total of FIVE knives on our table and NO other flatware. It was only after our main dishes had been delivered that we managed to flag someone down and pitifully request forks with which to enjoy our entrees. The waitress was cordial about it, but it did not negate that problem, nor make better the fact that our main waiter could offer little insight as to the specifics of any menu selections and that not a single person in the restaurant could be bothered to provide a birthday dessert or wish my dining partner a happy birthday when the occasion had been specifically stated on my reservation...which they clearly had, because they reviewed my comments before giving me the antithesis of what I had requested in other words, one of the worst tables in the house. If you 're looking to be disappointed by Applebees quality preparations of Michelin style dishes, needlessly pretentious service, and a staggeringly unrefined atmosphere, then Marche is your place. Oh, yes, and the last time we visited during COVID, one of the waiters literally yelled at me for forgetting my mask when I stepped inside to take a quick bathroom trip. I was hesitant to return then...now I know why.
