    Definitely different I came around the they had a brunch serving, I believe it’s till 2:30 then there’s regular dinner etc, the food was normal nothing crazy good but the drinks are pretty decent, it took forever for me to find the front door and get drinks because my server was all over the place even though it wasnt super busy, brunch was regular I think for what I paid it should be better than what it was but I would try it again during their dinner hours because it does have potential! I think that it’s a great small study space during the day and wheelchair accessible! Overall rating 7.5/10 only because I’ve had better

    Regrettably, my visit to this restaurant was disappointing. It wasn't the food or the atmosphere that let me down, but rather the service and the cost. The waitress who attended to us had a passive-aggressive demeanor and spoke in a condescending manner to both me and my family. Additionally, the prices are quite steep for the quality of food served($300 for two ny strips and a burger). I won’t be coming back and cannot recommend this place to others.

    I was very excited for our night out in manhattan. I looked up the menu beforehand and there were a bunch of items that sold me on making the reservation here. The place is beautiful and the service was great. I was just very disappointed to see that the menu had none of the items we were excited about trying. Most of their featured dishes on their instagram page wasn’t available because they had a pre fix Valentine’s Day menu. No crab cake, no Long Island clam pasta, and The French onion dumplings weren’t available ala carte. Which honestly was why we traveled here for dinner. They had them on the valentines menu which I was willing to get but my husband just wanted a burger and we were told both people HAD to get the valentines menu. So in my opinion they lost out on $110 because I wasn’t allowed to order the pre fix just for myself. I ended up getting the prime rib. I asked for it medium rare. It was definitely medium, a little dry and lacking flavor but it wasn’t bad. We also had the octopus appetizer which was really delicious and my husband really enjoyed his burger. I was just disappointed that I couldn’t get what we were looking forward to. I understand the menu sometimes changes. It is what it is. But I really wanted those dumplings! Overall not a bad experience but don’t go on a holiday if you want something from the regular menu.
    La MarchandeResponded on March 6, 2025
    Hey Nicole, Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the prime rib and our service. We regret that our Valentine's Day menu did not meet your expectations. We value your opinion and will discuss it with our culinary team. We hope to impress you with our regular menu items on your next visit. Best, La Marchande Management Team

    The ambiance and service were perfect for a date night and the breakfast was phenomenal. However, for dinner our steak was overcooked, and overall the meal left something to be desired. I was hoping the quality of the food would reflect the prices and I felt a bit ripped off. Additionally, make note that there are communal tables and you're sitting on top of the guests next to you, so it doesn't allow for much privacy.
