   Same day brunch reservation. The grace period is 10 minutes. Was seated immediately. Order was taken within 3 mins. Ordered the Pan Con Tomate Y Jamon, Bacon Croqueta, Torrijas, Rabos Con Huevos, Sangria tino, and a sangria blanco, Churros, Paella Mananera. The service was the best thing about the experience. The main waiter was a true service man. Clean cut, smelled good, clarified the order before placing it. The white sangria served. The small plates started coming out back to back while finishing each one. The waiters were attentive. The bacon croqueta was good and the aioli was too. it was moist on the inside, not sure if it was supposed to be or not. The pan con tomato Y jamon was good. The rabbis con huevos was fairly good too. The fruit garnish was a little too much. While I enjoyed all the fruit on 3 of the plates I had, it was slightly repetitive and evolved to be a little too much. two plates had kiwi, dragon fruit, orange slices. The 3rd plate had kiwi, dragon fruit, raspberries, blackberries, a strawberry. The fruit may have been a side; however, it wasn't listed in the description for the items they came with. The Torrijas tasted pretty authentic. Nearly done my food and realized my red sangria never came to the table. The gracious waiter served it and comp'd it. I ordered the Paella Mananera to go due to the cook time and was planning to have it for dinner at home. The paella was ready and packaged in a bag, that was stapled. When I went to eat it for dinner, I realized that it wasn't the paella I ordered. The paella I ordered was supposed to have bacon, chorizo, chicken. The paella that was given to me had calamari and mussels in it. I don't eat calamari and didn't want the mussels. I forced myself to eat and pick through it so that it wouldn't be a complete waste of food. I was really looking forward to the bacon and chicken in the paella but that's not what I got. The ambiance and music was great. If you order to go, check it before leaving.

   First time dining here and it was so good! We ordered red sangria that was great and complimented our dishes. All recommendations were great for tapas and the seafood paella was excellent with good amount of seafood like calamari, shrimp and was well seasoned. The service was great, the food and drinks came out timely. We would definitely return to dine again at this restaurant.

   I had an amazing experience at LA Marcha . From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I especially loved the Vegetarian Paella. Overall, it was a top-notch dining experience, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

   Whole experience was a S*** Show from the very beginning. My friend and I arrived for our reservation at 12:30 on Tuesday. We were left standing as the table needed to be cleaned; but we eventually got tired of standing and just sat down thinking our server could clean it while we sat. Server eventually came and cleaned the table and placed serveware down, however We were left at the table with no menu, no drinks for 15 minutes. I got up and had to get a menu myself. The server said we grabbed the brunch menu and proceeded to FINALLY give us the correct menu (we could’ve been browsing that entire time). Granted there was only one server that was tending to the restaurant and bar (La Marcha needs to fix this). Server memorized order and then proceeded to bring out a dish we did not order and one which was wrong. The whole experience was ruined and my friend and I will not be back again. The one thing we were excited to try were the crab croquettes and of course they didn’t have it that day for whatever reason. the food was mediocre at best.

   Good food! Service was ok- was told there’s no reservations when I called in but found the seats we wanted on OpenTable.

   Food is always great here. Even when they were shorthanded, we still received wonderful service.

   Food was excellent! Service was on the slower side: after sitting us down it took them 45min to take our food order

    Loved the menu and food at La Marca. Lively, restaurant with about 15 small tables. Urban, Berkeley vibe. Definitely going back. Paella was excellent and more than enough for 2 people. Brought home leftovers. Recommend.
