I came here with a few friends for Summerlicous 2015. Two of us ordered the Mackerel Escabeche and the other two ordered John's Burger for our main. Definitely try the burger! The patty is really juicy and flavourful, while the fries are fried and salted perfection.
On the other hand, the mackerel was a disappointment. It was dry and too sour/salty. Props to how management handled it. We mentioned it to our server after she asked how the meal was. She said she'd mention it to the chef. Afterwards when our bill arrived, they mentioned that the manager took off 25% for the mackerels. We did not have the intention of asking for any sort of compensation, but rather to just inform the restaurant about it. Despite the mishap with that dish, the service was great. I feel like I picked the wrong items.
For the dessert, I got the Dark Chocolate Brownie
cardamom crème fraiche. The brownie tasted like the packaged bite sized brownies, nothing too impressive.
I would still give Marben a chance in the future, so for now it gets three stars.
