"After a half-dozen meals here, I can say he's doing some of the best cuisine du marché in town....If this place were within walking distance of my apartment, I might eat there every day."

"Marchand owes a large part of his success to the great-value €48 three-course menu at dinner (prix fixe only)—boldly flavored dishes such as calamari gazpacho...and melt-in-the-mouth braised lamb."

"Marchand's cooking remains astonishingly good. Starters like house-smoked fish with pickled vegetables are bright and clean, and main dishes... manage to be both comforting and provocative."
