| - I had an absolutely PHENOMENAL experience at Marche Bacchus. I am not sure if it was the company, the atmosphere, the food or the service, but it was simply wonderful.
I have wanted to try this place for quite awhile, but hadn't been able to make it in. It was my turn to plan date night and I figured this would be the perfect place to take my boyfriend. It ended up being more than I imagined and we both had a fabulous time.
I love how unassuming this place is - it's in a residential neighborhood and then in a business park within that area. When you enter, you are in the wine shop - note that they do not sell bottles of wine at the table, so if you want a bottle, take a few minutes to browse and find what you like, then take it to your table with you. You are able to purchase glasses of wine while at the table.
The service was fantastic - I really liked our server and will definitely go back to see her. The food was really good as well. We started out by sharing the Bacchus platter, which is basically the house charcuterie. It was a great selection and I enjoyed everything. My BF had the beef tenderloin and I had the steak frites. The steak was damn near one of the best I've ever had and was cooked to a perfect medium rare temperature. I also ordered an extra side of the goat cheese mashed potatoes, which were crazy good.
The ambiance is what really sets this place apart. You really don't feel like you are in Las Vegas - it's a serene feeling, on the lake watching swans float by. This is a great place for proposals - in fact, the couple at the table next to us got engaged while we were there.
Overall, this was an unforgettable experience and I can't wait to go back!
