A long, long time ago I use to work for various Marche enterprises from Marchelinos to the fancier Marche in Yorkville where I was a bartender. It was a kinda crazy place to work at times but not bad, a lot of trickle down drama from the corporate level. Richtree is essentially Marche without the owners/shareholders paying for the Marche franchise name.
I've eaten about everything on the menu at one time or another. I came back to eat at this spot when looking for some fast food and knowing that what was offered at the Richtree Market would be the freshest and healthiest option. I've had in recent times the Chicken Bami Goreng, the rosti and the coffee and muffin special. It was as good as I remembered it back in the day.
I still like the concept of having a wide variety of meals available all at one location. Too I'm pretty sure they still make just about everything on site from scratch. Prices can be a bit steep but then again you can easily spend $8 at McDonalds now and the food at Richtree is obviously far superior. As for freshness and quality consistency, it's pretty good from location to location, however I advise going during peek hours for the best results. Of particular note is the muffins which are awesome! Always moist and delicious. Coupled with a coffee (where the beans are ground per cup) for their $2 special it's a steal.
Perhaps it's part due to nostalgia but there is still alot of things I like about the Richtree Market when compared to other fast food offerings and so I give'm 4 stars as I am still a fan.
