I could not have had a better experience treating my friends to dinner at Marcia Marden last evening. The food was impeccable as was the service the ambience I couldn’t have asked to be treated any better and haven’t been treated any better at any other restaurant in California. Our waiter Philip was sensational very personable even spoke French with one of my guests. A perfect evening
