Excellent experience. Food was delightful. Beautiful decor for a date night. Great quality. One complaint was that the seats were a little too close together. Conversations couldn’t be private for real. There was enough noise however to keep us focused on each other.

As always, great food and even better service. Dexter was our server and he was absolutely the best. He never “missed a beat”! It’s hard to find a restaurant that always gets it right!

Our group of 6 (women ages 42-78 years old) really enjoyed our first experience here. We were seated quickly, which included accommodations for a wheel chair. The food was fresh and delicious. Everything was seasoned perfectly. We were happy the music wasn’t loud… we could hear it, but could hear each other clearly with a normal speaking tone. We will return!!

Our dinner at Marcel was the best dinner experience I’ve had in 40+ years. The food was excellent but what took it over the top was how hospitable the staff was. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and welcoming. It was like a family member who wanted to share their food with you. We weren’t rushed and enjoyed just sitting and chatting with ourselves and the staff. They treated everyone like a VIP. I encourage everyone to try Marcel and I’ll gladly recommend it and come back.
