This is one of our favorite restaurants. Our waiter was fantastic, with a thorough knowledge of food options, and ultimately selling us on the prefix meal. This was Valentine’s Day, so very special. The food here is phenomenal. We had numerous dishes, including Wagyu, steak, sashimi, sushi, oysters, and a great dessert. Highly recommend.

We were celebrating our 48th anniversary and everyone from the host to the bus boy to our server and the manager greeted us and wished us a Happy Anniversary. Even some of the other guests did as well. Our server, Dane, made our special outing a wonderful experience. He was very engaging and a lot of fun. The food was amazing to eat and perfect to look at. We have a fantastic time and we wish to thank Marche Moderne and their wonderful staff for making it so.
