Marcel's By Robert Wiedmaier

It is a solid place with great food. Very refreshing experience. First Michelin with tasting menu where I actually did not leave the place starving. The food was absolutely amazing. Me and my girlfriend loved it absolutely. Alcohol was fantabulous, water was superb, desserts and proteins were great. The only thing that was off was constant reminders to us about how Marcel is a very “cool place” and “unlike any other places” by the service people. Like, come on, I know that if I am coming to a place where they serve black caviar 30 grams that averages 60$ on the market for 220. I do not need constant reminders of how awesome I am for choosing this specific place because it makes me realize how trapped I am in commodity fetishism and leaves a permanent mark on me. What if Chick Fila was a better choice? The waiter was a funny italian guy though.

We celebrated my birthday at Marcel’s. From the moment we entered the restaurant we felt very special. Isabel and Veni were amazing.They were both fantastic. The food was fabulous. The atmosphere reminded us of Europe. Upscale and professional but at the sometime very fun. Thank you all for creating such a wonderful memory for us.

Went for a friends birthday dinner and got the 4 (or 5, can’t remember) courses. Intriguing plating, and great flavors. The foi gras was my favorite. The servers were friendly and charming, but kind of blew me off when I asked about ingredients… the server let me know it was worth it to get the dessert since the price wasn’t much more for the additional course. I really didn’t want dessert because I don’t eat dairy sugar, but he insisted. I tried to get a better understanding of ingredients but just gave in and got the dessert.

If you are aching to travel back in time to 1992 this is the place for you. Old school fine dining at it's best. From the ultra dim lighting to the old carpets to the dated motel style curtains and soft elevator music, you will have the ultimate 90's meal experience. That being said, almost every course was delicious. At Marcel's, you will find a collection of semi refined comfort foods that are masterfully prepared. The flavors were bold and every dish was a delight. The evening was made particularly charming by our delightful server who kept us laughing from start to finish. The only bad dish was the Wagyu beef which was tough and tasted mainly of salt and extra salt. The house made bread, however was some of the best i have tasted in my life! If you are looking for something different for your next outing, you won't be disappointed by the bold, if not familiar flavors and the absolutely silly atmosphere.

This was likely the best meal I've ever had. Took my partner here for her birthday and it was even more special than I had hoped. The next time we can afford to do so we'll be back. Everyone from the wait staff to the kitchen staff were friendly, welcoming, and personable, and the food was transcendent
